As the operating costs of 49ers Paradise have grown over the years, we have had to find ways to support the site. It has always been a priority of 49ers Paradise to keep advertising content to the bare minimum. As such, a recent decision has brought forth the idea of a paid subscription for the use of the site.
There are different levels of membership available to fit any budget. Please read more to determine the membership option that is right for you. All proceeds go directly to the on-going maintenance of 49ers Paradise, for your convenience payments can be made via automatic monthly payments or via annual lump sum payments.

(Please read the ENTIRE message to fully understand this decision and how it affects you) The future of 49ers Paradise depends heavily on the sustainability of 49ers Paradise and hence to enjoy 'dise to the fullest, visitors will need a paid membership / subscription. This is a brand new concept to 49ers Paradise, and one that I am not jumping into without much thought and considerable discussion. This is not a decision that I have taken lightly.
Each year 49ers Paradise has a donation drive to help support the site. As the site grows, simply relying on donations alone is not sustainable. In the past, 49ers Paradise has also utilized some minor text based ads throughout the site. These adds contributed to the year-over-year increase and changes that the site under goes throughout the year. Whereas the donations provided a base to continue the site on an 'as is' basis. Changes to the way Google ranks sites have already significantly curbed the revenue stream available from text based ads.
49ers Paradise has always made it a priority to minimize any and all commercial influence on the site (if you are still receiving pop ups on 49ers Paradise, you are accessing from a very old URL. Please update your bookmarks to www.49ersparadise.com NOT www.49ersparadise.cjb.net). Before deciding to implement paid membership, I considered adding other forms of advertisements to the site. I believe this would have greater negative results on the overall experience than paid subscriptions and previous research has also left me unconvinced that more ads would provide any significant revenue at all.
Every penny raised by 49ers Paradise goes directly back into improving the site. This includes all donations, any purchases made through the 49ers Paradise Store, and any advertisements. Obviously, subscriptions will go directly towards financing the site as well. It should be noted that should subscriptions not grow at a fast enough pace, that donations or alternative advertisements may still be required.
The growth 49ers Paradise since 1996 years has already far exceeded my expectations. This growth brings with it plenty of positives. However, growth also means that some negative issues creep up as well. I am convinced that the paid subscription requirement will not only help to provide a sustainable and positive level of growth on the site, but that it will help curb the negative aspects of growth as well.
For a long time now, a small minority of visitors supported the site for the majority of readership by way of regular paid donations. This small minority in some cases provide several hundred dollars per donor per year. This is often on top of other services they provide to the site. It is highly unfair that such a small minority has to support such a large fan base.
Subscriptions should help spread the financial burden of running the site on to the entire fan base. At the very least, the subscriptions should help reduce the total funds required by the small minority who do contribute throughout the year. I have purposely kept membership costs to a minimum to make it affordable for every fan. Even the most expensive membership option can be had for less than a coffee a day. All fees are collected and secured through PayPal. I continue to be thankful and appreciative of every dollar received.
To view the costs and features of each membership option, please scroll down. Those who are truly in need may petition for free membership.
To re-iterate, this is not a decision that I made easily. It is what I believe to be the best way to sustain a bright future for 49ers Paradise. Subscription costs are extremely reasonable.
