View MoreCSNet Expenses Last Updated: February 21, 2022 For those of you who may be wondering how much it costs to run an online Christian ministry such as Bill's Bible Basics and the Christian Social Network, following is a breakdown of recent expenses: A Better Finder Rename 24.95 (one time) Abyss Web Server 79.95 (one time) Adobe Photoshop 600.00/year until Adobe began subscription model Adobe Photoshop CC upgrade 119.88/year Apple Developer Account $99.00/year BBEdit 40.00 (one time) BBEdit upgrade 30.00/year billkochman.com (Register.com) 470.00 (10 years) Camera for OBS Studio 18.99/year Catch-all Email Address 70.00/year csnet.live (Register.com) 191.00 (5 years) Facebook Clone Template 99.00 (one time) Feeder upgrade 19.99/year ff·Works upgrade 13.58/year iMac (Retina 5K 27-inch) 3,800.00 (one time) iPhone 6s Plus (iOS testing) 150.00 (one time) ISP services 225.00/month MailServe software 25.00 (one time) MAMP Pro 60.00 (one time) MAMP Pro upgrade 39.50/year Moto G8 Power (Android testing) 216.00 (one time) phpFox Customization 2021-05-12 200.00 (one time) phpFox Instant Messaging 5.00/month phpFox Pro PHP script 539.00 (one time) phpFox Ultimate upgrade 1,060.00 (one time) phpFox Ultimate renewal 320.00/year Register.com Email Account 74.00 (5 years) Register.com SiteLock 6.00/month Rumpus FTP server 295.00 (one time) SendGrid Email Service 15.00/month SNAP Pro WordPress plugin 49.95/year TP-Link AX6000 WiFi 6 Router 328.00 (one time) XSplit VCam 60.00 (one time) The above expense list does not include the extra electricity all of the equipment uses each month, purchasing new computers when old ones wear out, buying replacement external backup hard drives and other electronic equipment such as routers, cable modems and cables, other annual software registrations and upgrade fees, or other occasional charges which arise. The truth of the matter is that since I first began this ministry in 1993, approximately $40,000 has been invested in it, of which about 80% has come out of my own pocket. This also does not include the thousands of hours I have invested in this ministry over the years, or the frustration I have endured countless times when technical problems arise, or when I have had a hard time learning new Internet technologies. So this ministry has been a major investment of my life in many ways. It is my labor of love for the Lord and His sheep. Your fellowservant, Bill Kochman Christian Social Network Administrator

Ren'ee Burleson , yep ... doing this does NOT come cheap! But, as they say, where God guides, He also provides. As long as He continues to provide, I will keep on doing what I have been doing for decades now.
