Blake and Brock,
I'm not sure if you have ever heard of me, Sharkey, owner/ webmaster of
www.SharkeyMarine.com .
I spend much of my time promoting the sport of Offshore and other Hi Performance Boating along with the businesses within the sport. All over the last 5 years in volunteering my time & money...
I hope to change that by getting some sponsors or advertisers to display banner ads on my site.
It was a choice I had to make this year.
Either shut down the site to keep my better half happy or start bringing in some income from it to keep my better half happy...
I feel what I do is too important to let it go without giving it 110 % effort.
I'm not sure how many people realize the amount of time it can take to upload 2 to 4 gigs of photographs and always trying to keep my site current. But I try my best, and in hopes to perhaps sell a few photographs, and gain some advertisers along the way that most likely I have already been promoting for the last 5 years without asking for anything.
Now with your situation, I chose to buy ad space for my site because for one, when I was your age I had the opportunity to go offshore racing. I didn't have the money then and I certainly still don't have the money now.
But I would like be a part of helping you two get that chance, as well as have my link on your site for the next 5 years...
It helps you and any potential advertisers I may pick up along the way...
My information has been sent in, and the payment has been made.
Thank you and good luck!
May we both prosper.
