Commercial?

Postby Charlie » Mon Jan 16, 2012 2:33 am

Hi, im maintaining a site/forum with advertizement and it draws in money so in that sence its commercial but its not to make a profit, its to pay for server fee's, pricemoney in contest and alittle to those that make sure it all works so i wonder, where is the line for commercial websites vs noncommercial?
Regards
Charlie

Hi Charlie,

This sounds like a non-profit project, so then you're allowed to use Highslide for free even though you have advertizing.

In his case I agree, this is a non-commercial project, but you didn't answer the question: where is a line, what means the difference between commercial and non-commercial stuff? I'm planning on launching my own project soon and wondering if it's all about the money or not :) thanks

It's simple enough. It's "commercial" if the primary purpose of the site is to sell a product or service for profit.
