How does mumsnet make money?

[cocolepew]

I know it will come from advertising revenue, but there isn't that many ads.

Do advertisers pay loads and loads.

How can you afford to run an office, pay wages and buy sheds?

I know I'm being nosey but I don't care .

[LadyMuck]

Ads, CAT subs,media request fees, books.

I assume that you have an ad-blocker!

Their accounts are publicly available IIRC.

books surveys and i believe justine carrie helen and alexia dance on a bar semi nakid to old 80's tunes

[VampiresWalkin]

Lol @ "and buy sheds"

[LadyMuck]

I don't think that is strictly MN income though. That is just an unofficial sideline.

[PortAndLemon]

I thought it was just a hobby...

[cocolepew]

I don't have an ad blocker I just don't read them I pour over every one of them.

[cocolepew]

So how much would an ad cost?

[Tigerschick]

LOL @ 'buy sheds' and table dancing

Don't they get paid when they ask us to do a survey for a third party?

[HelenMumsnet]

how did you know about the dancing, Custardo?

[gigglewitch]

my mind is boggling

so c'mon, no we are all nosey interested

[HelenMumsnet]

To be fair to Justine and Carrie, we only have to do it when Gerry's not brought much in with the busking...

[mynewnickname]

I've seen some of the advertising rates....that's how they make revenues although I imagine the costs are not insignificant.

Am I right in thinking that all the MN live chat people pay to be on?
