If you get some of the ad revenue, or some sort of web hosting service for free fair enough, but all you are really doing is helping out some ewizard to get clicks on his/her site without them doing much.

I wish that was the case! Unfortunately yeah, we're only a small time operation, but with big plans. I do the majority of the writing, which does take a lot of time and effort, for little reward, but it's not a short term project. I have a few volunteer writers submitting articles and helping out, and hopefully we'll be able to reward them for their work further down the line, but, for now, everything is completely voluntary. Myself and Dayzer have only just sorted out the costs of launching the site by now!
