New Funding Opportunity for HMIGSA

Our buddy Nishant has done it again!!!

Nishant has turned us on to Google Adsense to help HMIGSA make some money from our website.

My concern with the prospect centered around the eye sores Google Ads would put on an already aesthetically mediocre web experience. After doing some searching on my own, however, I found an interesting way to use javascript and Google Adsense. Basically, when you first navigate to our website, a box fades into the center of your browser asking you to click on some links. Once you click on one of them, then the box won't appear again unless you close and reopen your browser.

The other side to this venture is getting permission from the University. I took the first step by signing us up for Google Adsense, but they have an approval period of 1-2 business days. Hopefully by the time we hear back from Google, Kyle will have gained approval from the "power that be" at MU.

Please make any comments you may have about this new revenue opportunity. And yes, YOU CAN POST A COMMENT WITHOUT SIGNING IN!!!!

Below are some links about how they pay and how we are supposed to make money.

THANKS NISHANT!

How much will I earn through Google Adsense?

When do we get paid?
