The Voice is only a success because of the interest and support from our readers. For many people just lurking and reading the site is all they want to do – and that’s fine, we’re grateful for people taking the time to read the site.
You can though help us continue to produce interesting content for a growing audience. Here are three simple ways:
1. Let us have your tips for stories. Perhaps there’s something outrageous going on in your local council? Or you’re an expert in a particular area and have spotted a story other people have missed? Or you’ve seen some news no-one else is mentioning? Just drop us an email at [email protected].
2. Share our content with other people. Like a story you see on the site? If so, please let your friends know about it. Whether it is by sharing it on Facebook, sending a tweet, adding a link from your blog, saving it on a social networking site or anything else – the more people share good stories, the wider the audience they reach.
3. Donate. We keep our costs to a minimum, but our hosting costs have gone up as our traffic has grown, and any additional funds beyond that can go on better Conference activities and more internet advertising to promote our site and stories.
4. Shop at Amazon via our affiliate link and help raise funds another way – but without costing you anything extra.
The site’s success is down to far more than just The Voice’s team. Readers like yourself are a keep part of our success. If you’re already doing any of these three – many thanks. And if not, why not try one of them this coming month?

Just wondering… How much does it cost to maintain a site like this?
Hi John,
If you’re a Lib Dem member, you can find a copy of our accounts in the members’ forum. I’m about to close the accounts for this year and post the update. There’s no simple answer – do you just count the costs of hosting, or the time donated by our team and writers, or do you include all the offline activity we do to gather traffic and have a presence at Lib Dem conference?
