If you divide your ad revenue by the number of unique visitors per month, what would the monthly subscription cost be, roughly speaking?

Because you could make the site ad free for subscribers, for instance. It would be mostly symbolic, of course, but that's good enough.

The problem with slow external ad servers is that the javascript is often hosted externally too, and that file needs to be loaded first before the webpage can be displayed.

Other than that, scripts can change the website, so they need to be run before the site can be displayed.

So if the ad scripts don't explicitly load the ads asynchronously, pretty much the whole site loading needs to wait for the stupid ads to pop up, one by one.

And external ad servers are always slow.
