Yurt Forum Acquires Yurtinfo.org and Livingintheround.org

[Jafo]

Actually Becky's sites had multiple advertisements for various yurt manufacturers. She did indeed advertise them. I have since removed these ads for now because I am not currently seeking to monetize my sites. I do however reserve that right to do so. There is a lot of work that goes into creating a community like this and there may come a time where I would like to be compensated for it in some way. Most of the people out there who build yurts, make a profit of some kind, and I don't think that makes their work less authentic in doing so.

I feel my place here is to speak about my experience while creating an even larger area for others to do so too. When people ask what kind of yurt I would recommend, then I feel I should give my opinion. I don't believe there is any conflict of interest there. I do not (yet) receive any direct compensation from any yurt manufacturer so I do not see how my opinion adversely affects my integrity. If a day should come where I do have business interests with particular manufacturers, I will be sure to note that when giving my opinions.

My goals are still the same the day I started yurtforum.com, and that is to try and create a repository of information and discussion about yurts. This includes all yurts, be they traditional, architectural, solid, or even metaphysical .
