The forum doesn't make any profit at the moment. We use the money from vips, rep sale and the google ad to pay for the costs of all the habbox servers and licenses, which is around 200 pounds per month.

If your not going to believe what the owner says then theres no point talking to you tbh :p.
Habbox has 3 servers (habbox.com habboxforum.com and habboxhosting.com). They also have to pay for hosting for habboxcanada and habbox usa. Plus people to watch their 3 servers etc :).

Edit: Oh yeah forgot about habboxtv hosting and habboxlive (oops :p).

Habbox.com is on a dedicated server, Habboxforum.com is on a dedicated server - then you have HabboxTV and HabboxLive. I can assure you - it costs a helluva lot more than £20 per month.

Indeed. Add another "0" on the end if your at a good Datacentre with a good webhost.

Sierk owns the websites and forums so it's his money..

When i worked here they weren't even making a profit and Sierk had to often use his own money to pay.

If you think all the sites run on 20.00 you really don't know much. The price of it all was very expensive when i was here and now they have more dedicated servers and things so its probably a lot more.

Even if it was making a profit then it is Sierk's, it annoys me when people go mad at the thought of Sierk even having some of the profit if there was any. I am sure if you all owned a website/business or anything which was giving profit you would be the first ones to take it.

Yes good point made, because he sells hosting, his hosting packages are probably like 5 pounds (I think), well infract most hosting plans you find these days are that price or even less. To run a site as big as habbox, you will need much more than a 5 pound hosting plan or even 20 pound :p.

I agree 100%

If sierk does get a lil money after all the work he puts into it then good for him:)

He does a lot of work with his staff to keep the site going.
