Hosting costs up 45% YOY, and Amazon affiliate income down 26% YOY means ribbonfarm is, for the first time in its over a decade, not operating profitable. The internet of beefs viral spike cost me $324 and put ribbonfarm solidly about $381 in the red 🤬

Traffic actually went *down* slightly (deliberate, since I switched to the blogchain strategy partly as an anti-viral measure) and it would have gone down a lot more, but then I ruined it by doing the internet of beefs post. Culprit is WPEngine overage going from $1 to $2/1000

Thank you, that's very kind. I'll consider it, but I like being more directly in control of my ops. Actually considering migrating off wordpress altogether to a mailing list or something. Evaluating various options over the next few months.
