As the xc-skiing.com aquires the reputation of the number one global web site for XC skiing, we foresee a potential for many sources of revenue. Instead of limiting our income potential by pinpointing long-term sources, we feel a better approach is to profit on features that prove successful. As the site grows we can objectively measure areas of most use. Such popularity will be capitalized on by whatever revenue-generating feature is most appropriate for the given situation.
