How long has Free-Ed.Net
been in operation? |
 |
The first pages were
published on the web in 1997. We never stopped to look
back. FYI, you can appreciate the evolution of
Free-Ed.Net at our kiosk on
archive.org. |
|
|
What is the business
structure for Free-Ed.Net. |
|
|
Free-Ed.Net is not a
business entity. It is a product owned by SweetHaven
Publishing Services, LLC. |
|
|
How is Free-Ed.Net
funded? |
|
|
Free-Ed.Net is funded by
advertising revenue. Until December, 2011, Free-Ed.Net
also accepted token voluntary donations from users.
Those wanting to express their appreciation should
now donate the gift to a charity in the name of Free-Ed.Net. |
|
|
Does Free-Ed.Net
actively solicit donations? |
|
|
No. Free-Ed.Net has never
actively solicited donations. |
|
|
Why do you not seek
grants from government agencies and private education
funds? |
|
|
First, we don't need the
money. Second, we certainly don't need the
special-interest interference that often accompanies
grant awards. Third, and most important, accepting
grants would violate the essence of our mission
statement: to demonstrate that an individual, or small
group, can accomplish tasks of staggering significance
without resorting to the the outmoded notion that it
takes big money to accomplish big things. |
|
|
How large is your staff? |
|
|
There is one fulltime
employee. We occasionally use volunteers and paid
contractors for special projects. |
|
|
I
would like to buy some advertising space on your site. What are your ad
rates? |
|
|
Free-Ed.Net works only through major ad brokers. I suggest you go that
direction. |
|
|
Would you be interested in discussing terms for selling Free-Ed.Net to us? |
|
|
No,
thank you. Our exit strategy does not include the sale of the site or
anything connected with it. |
|
|
Are you
interested in doing a link exchange with our college site? |
|
|
No,
thank you. Free-Ed.Net does not do link exchanges. |
