yes, i agree; financial information is confidential. but what i'm looking to do is explore the business model used to generate profits -- i'm not concerned with the amount being earned, but rather how it is being earned. how exactly is the person using vbulletin as a source of profit? if you're running your vbulletin as a for-profit operation, then you're probably interested in getting all the free and positive publicity you can. hence having me write about it, and link to it, can get you more interest and credibility -- and thus hopefully more clients.

i've seen a number of forums doing this -- some are doing it in really great ways, and i will be writing about them. but i'm looking for more to get a bigger perspective on the issue.
