Testing out a new way to monetize using Coinhive!

Ever since Google implemented their Panda angorithm years ago, and ever since Google booted me off Adsense for no reason whatsoever, I've been struggling to monetize Bauer-Power. To add insult to injury, Ad Blockers have become ever so popular as well, which kills monetization even more.

Look, I get it. Ads are annoying, however they are what keeps many websites free and their content free. It's a lot like terrestrial television. I digress...

Anyway, I discovered an interesting way to possibly monetize Bauer-Power recently. And it doesn't cost you a dime! At the top of the page, you should see a Coinhive banner like this:


Loading...


When you click on it, a simple javascript kicks off that borrows some of your CPU power to mine Monero cryptocurrency for me. When you press the pause button, or leave the site, the miner stops. Simple! While you are reading my content, you can throw me a bone by letting me borrow some CPU. No big deal right?

If you click on the links in this post, you may also notice that they take you to a Coinhive redirect page first. That also mines a little Monero for me to help out as well.

Hopefully this method works, because to be honest, I have yet to find a truly viable alternative to Google Adsense. On top of that, if I made more money on Bauer-Power, I would be able to add content more frequently.
