Difficult Run is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com. We started the associates program in 2014. We have placed a few adds around the site and also place links in some of our posts (usually for books that we like). If you click one of those links to Amazon and then purchase one those products or any other product, then we get a small percentage: usually between 4% and 6%. (You can find more details about how the program works here.)
DR will publicize the total amount of revenue gained from advertising at the end of every year because transparency is cool. In 2014, when the program was being tested, we earned $0.66[ref]Details here.[/ref] Since we added more ads to the site in January 2015, we’ve earned about $13.00.[ref]As of January 22, 2015.[/ref] All revenue raised will go towards paying for the hosting of this blog, which is currently about $30/month. We really appreciate your support.
