Free Republic is currently delivering over 1.2 million pageviews to over 230,000 visitors per day. That's 40 million pageviews to 7 million visitors per month or 120 million pageviews per quarter, 480 million pageviews per year. We currently have over 340,000 registered screen names on FR. Out of these millions of visits, hundreds of millions of pageviews, hundreds of thousands of registered FReepers and hundreds of thousands of regular lurkers only a relatively FEW actually donate the funds to keep FR alive.
Now I'm not complaining, because we've always managed to meet our fundraising goals in the past, but it is taking longer and longer to accomplish the task. And part of that may be because it's mostly the same few dedicated FReepers providing the funds, and, along with the rest of us, I'm sure they're stretched to the limit. Sure would be nice if a few more FReepers and lurkers would lend a hand and send in a few bucks. Doesn't take much. I think our average donation is around $20, but you can send in $5, $10, $20, $30 or more, and make it a monthly contribution if you can.
A relatively few good FReepers is all it takes to keep FR on the air so that hundreds of thousands of us can join together in kicking liberal butt and continue the fight for our freedom!!
For example, 1,500 dedicated FReepers and lurkers donating an average of $20 each per month is all it takes to continue delivering these hundreds of millions of propaganda-fighting, pro-liberty pages to tens of millions of readers every year. How many concerned citizens and potential voters can we reach for a tiny fraction of a cent per page? FR delivers a BIG bang for the buck!!
Thank you for providing the bang AND the buck!!

Ah, sweet you. How nice of you to tell me that.
I’m happy, happy, happy to be back with such good friends like you!!!
Jim, I know it’s taking longer and longer every quarter to reach the goal. What can we do to get people to become monthly donors so you wouldn’t have to have a Freepathon? It seems like such a simple thing to set up an automatic withdrawal from your checking account and not have to think about it any more. I hate being a monthly donor on our meager income and still feel guilty that I can’t give more, yet so many people enjoy the services of FR and never give a dime. I wish you could just go with the subscription method. You offer more than any magazine or newspaper, yet most people subscribe to those and think nothing of it. I dropped my subscriptions in order to give to FR. I don’t miss the magazines, but I sure would miss FR if were not here. God bless you for this wonderful service that you work so hard to keep up and running smoothly.
Thank you very much, WVNan!! More monthlies would definitely be the way to go to keep FR rolling strong!!
Woo hoo!!

“I wish you could just go with the subscription method”
Another option could be to just add a subscription side, as Rush has done, and restrict it to topics listed in News/Activism, political topics listed in GOP Club, and the Liberty Caucus. I would be willing to pay 35-50 dollars a quarter for it.
This would be consistent with a popular genealogical site that is about 65 dollars for six months or slightly more for the same period if membership is for shorter periods.
There are some very long threads, at times, so I would like to see additional options added to the current next/last options.
