Hey MJ,
No – I never found a cash worthy alternative. Unfortunately.
:sarcasm:
In the end – we simply stoped focusing on the book sales – it was a waste of website real estate. We have a small books section as a service to players who really want to find good gambling books.
But it’s never paid for the time and effort.
We sold around 300 books, and made about 30-50p a book (5%-7.5% commission) and all up made about GBP 100 total..
If I divide that by the number of hours I spent doing the work over 3 years in reading books – reviewing books – fetching links etc … then I think that my hourly rate was around 75p per hour …
And because the payouts were so small – they only offered vouchers rather than cash – so I spent the bloody profit on some books that we wanted ourselves …
:tongue:
Anyone else out there had a better experience ?
