I run a website that proactively notifies people when I observe their credentials in the clear (1.6 million so far). I do not host advertisements on my site today because I don't feel that doing so would be appropriate.

I don't run the service expecting to make money. However, recovering what the service costs would be a plus. I get a lot of people who thank me, some rare donations, and many who wish they could donate but can't. That's ok. However, this brings me to my question:

Would it be appropriate to create a advertisement page that the user could visit if they chose to support the site?

For instance, the page could hyperlink to the site in the donation section like: If you would like to support this site in another way, you can visit this page to check out sponsors: hxxp://site.com/sponsors.

Thanks everyone-
