I think it depends on how you frame the question. I pay $5 a month to have LiveJournal ad-free, plus other perks (mostly 15 icons to use).
ReplyDelete$5 doesn't seem like much to me, so sure, I'll pay it! $60 a year??! Uhmm, no thanks. LJ makes it easy to buy in 1 month, 3 months, 6 month and yearly options. So I think the survey may be a result of question bias.
Considering you can use free plugins such as Ad Block Plus, why would you even pay?
ReplyDeleteThe questions is the key. I think that a monthly based breakdown is better.
ReplyDeleteIt depends as well on which kinds of sites. Some sites would not be worth paying for whilst others would fare with a higher percentage of their visitors paying up.
ReplyDeleteI think the framing of the question would make a difference as well. 50p a day sounds much better than £15 a month or £180 a year.
