Funding the Project

Sustaining the Project

We have adapted and adopted the idea of Sustaining as our principal source of revenue. Sustainers make an annual payment of an amount of their choice to go towards the upkeep of the site

While there is no expectation of your becoming a sustainer on registering a Brief Profile the project will rely on support when our team assist with enhancements.

Most of our sustainers are customers who have completed the form at the end of the registration process. But anybody can become a sustainer.

If you approve of the site’s objectives and wish to see it succeed, perhaps so that you could use it yourself in the future, then your help would be welcome.

We also welcome donations. If you wish to become a sustainer or make a donation please use the form at the foot of this page – and Thank You.

Advertising. We have approached  a number of organisations to point out the potential value of Milestones to them. Responses have been lukewarm, understandably. As the site expands, however, we are confident that some will come to recognise what Milestones can offer to them, to their members, staff, shareholders. We are confident that the site, once established, will become attractive to a range of niche advertisers.

Our policy will be to keep advertising discreet.

We will hope for and look to Patrons to fund improvements to our services suggested by them or customers. See FAQ, Services.

Good Causes. Ever-optimistic we have made plans for the sharing of any profit in excess of running costs to be shared with Good Causes.  See FAQ.
