It is a cash cow so to speak. It requires very little resources, very little human resources as well. It does sell 35-50 big banner spots easily each month and many are on 3, 6, or 12 month contracts and range from 2k to almost 4k a month. There are also about 50+ buttons and most of those go for 300 or more a month.

70k a month in big banners
15k a month in small banners

85k a month without counting any skins.
1 million and change alone in banners.

The webmaster access shows would just be valid tax deductible expenses.
Would imagine the backyard parties would come along with it - which has to be a huge profit item.

Any buying company will have a accounting sheet and easily see the Expense & Income lines for this board. It would stand out like a sore thumb.

Then we are not even thinking about other ways that they could add money to this board. Ask around how many would pay a monthly fee for a pure certified business section and what they would pay for example.
