March Pledge Drive

After five days of the March Pledge Drive, 117 readers have sent in $1474. Thank you all so much! I hope many more of you will join them. Over 16,000 unique URLs visited Baseball Musings so far in March. So those 117 readers are supporting over 100 times their weight!

All it takes is $1. If every one who visits the site this month gives that much, Baseball Musings can run for a year. If every one gave $10, I could run the site indefinitely. A Ballpark View has this to say:

In blogging news, one of the Baseball blogging patriarchs, David Pinto of Baseball Musings, is having a pledge drive. He is one of the lucky ones that gets to blog as a full time job, and a large part of his income is generated by the once a year pledge drive. Dave was one of the first to link to this site, and gave me a great write-up on his blog. I’ve taken the time to donate a ten-spot, and if you visit his blog on a regular basis, then help support the great job he does. If you don’t visit his blog then you’re missing out on one of the best sports bloggers in the business, so check him out.

Donations can be made via Amazon, PayPal or Click and Pledge (new this year). Just click on the button of choice below. There are a number of people who won't use PayPal, and Amazon limits contributions in a one month period. Click and Pledge will process a credit card without making you sign up for an account. This is my first time trying that company, but they've been very helpful so far. Please let me know if there are any problems. Click and Pledge does pop up a window for the donations, so if your browser blocks those, you can go to a new page here.

Join the 117 people who donated so far in supporting this blog. Any amount is appreciated. A $500 earns you a listing and link under patrons for two years, and a $50 donation allows you to dedicate a post with a link. Help keep the information flowing!

As as a further incentive, Oleg Lyubner of Workman Publishing sent me three copies of Baseball Prospectus 2006 to use as donation rewards. Donate at the $75 level, and you can help this site and enjoy a great book.
