Seeing an accurate valuation of your product is a bitter pill to swallow if you are accustomed to an inflated market. I don&#x27;t think it is a business model problem and changing your monetization strategy won&#x27;t help you much unless you can convince your customers about the (perceived) quality of your content. I don&#x27;t think adblock shaming is very effective here. There are many many sites without adverts doing just fine, even receiving donations and volunteer work.
