I'm sorry. I know this is the wrong place to post but this forum is the closest one I can get to my question.
I was just wondering about how MangaUpdates is able to maintain itself? I mean like server costs and stuff. There doesn't seem to be any ads to make money off of.
MU database is probably HUMONGOUS now, and probably serve a lot of bandwidth...I don't know how can MU keep up to the costs if only a few people is paying.
Thanks!

We get some donations. That's what we're running on besides what we already have

But before, the site's server was paid for from Google Adsense and donations.
Not anymore...I don't know how it's being paid for now, probably another ad thing like adsense and more donations. o:

Thanks for all of your replies!
Yeah, before, I do see some ads on release page and on the series info page couple of days. Now, I don't see anymore.
