Topic: Bitcoin.org is looking for sponsorship! - page 2. (Read 2791 times)

Do u mean they are asking for 6 million USD equivalent in BTC for this spot ?

Thanks! Your help is welcome if you want to contribute on GitHub

But don't worry, AFAIK the Foundation is wiling to renew the sponsorship, we're just taking a look for alternatives.

For example, perhaps this sponsorship can be useful to some business in the space or bring some more money in the ecosystem, and allow the Foundation to spend more money on stuff that is generally harder to fund like open-source development, lobbying, etc.

yes well this is interesting...

I though that Bitcoin.org is sponsored by Foundation ...

I think people from Bitcoin Foundation are not poor ... but perhaps wealthy, isn't?

I though that for them few BTCs is not enough to keep Bitcoin.org nicely developed ...


Anyway, good luck with finding someone who will help you and Bitcoin.org - I am out of money and hardly trying to manage founds for my own web sites (like btc-embassy.com) - so I dunno how to help....

Regards.

Cøbra: Thanks for starting the thread and spending some time on this!

Bitcoin Foundation running out of money ?

6m seems a lot up front, how  many figures arr you expecting

Bump.

Description: Bitcoin.org is considering looking for a new sponsor. By sponsoring Bitcoin.org your website or business will be promoted at the footer of the website (where the Bitcoin Foundation logo is currently placed). The slot won't be shared with others and the minimum purchase time is 6 months. We aren't interested in working with certain types of services, these include porn sites, gambling sites, large mining pools, anything altcoin related, and suspicious services of low quality.

Traffic statistics: The site receives roughly between one million to two million unique visitors per month. On certain days when Bitcoin is featured heavily in the media, we can get a very large amount of visitors. For example the Newsweek situation had us pushing 200,000 unique visitors in the span of 24 hours. The traffic is largely made up of new users who are interested in Bitcoin and come to learn more about it and get involved. By purchasing the slot you are likely to be the first Bitcoin related "brand" or service they see. You are also likely to experience significant SEO improvements as you will have your site linked to by Bitcoin.org on every page of the site.

Where your money will be spent: The money you use to sponsor Bitcoin.org will go towards the following: design improvements, server fees, rewarding valued volunteers, translation improvements and stuff of that nature. You will be directly funding improvements on one of the most important resources to the Bitcoin community.
