   I used to turn up a lot higher on most searches back when I was actively   
   updating the site, and was advertising those updates on Usenet.

   I'm not; the site costs me money to maintain. The Donations request on my   
   Contact page has netted me a whopping $42 in 4 years (a lady once donated   
   $3). I'm a technician, not a businessman, otherwise I'd be rich by now, and   
   I wouldn't be asking for advice on what to do here...

   I can tell you that NONE of this occurred to me, which is why I'm lousy at   
   business.   
      
   I really don't feel like loading my site with snitch-code, so I'm wondering   
   if I should just tell the guy: This is what I want, take it or leave it.
