Having discussed this with a few current patrons, I’ve decided I’m going to try raising the price substantially. People keep telling me that the price is way too low and they would happily contribute more, so let’s see if that’s true.
The plan is to increase the price on Tuesday, so if you’ve been thinking of signing up to gain access to the patron-only content and to support the site, you have until the end of Monday before the new higher price kicks in.

Just to let you all know. The new price is in effect. It won’t exist existing patrons, but new signups will now cost £6 (or the equivalent in your currency). Apple will obviously continue to charge their tax on top (which should probably be illegal but I’m not going to fight that one!).

I’m finally free to adjust the Patreon price. £6, it turned out, was too high.
Now Patreon inform me that if I reduce the price, ALL existing members will go to the new price, but if I increase it, only new signups will be affected.
As a further complication, I can’t remember what the price was before I increased it. Can anyone remind me? (The UK price, not the converted currency prices or the mad Apple price.

Mine’s showing as “Community Supporter £3.50” but Patreon adds 20% vat making the actual payment £4.20.

Thank you.

In which case, I will put the original price up by 60p per month (50p before VAT).
As I understand it, because I am putting the price down from £6 to £4, Patreon will move ALL existing patrons to the new lower level, even if they are paying a lower price. When moving up, it’s voluntary, but moving down I don’t get any choice – everyone changes.

I announced it earlier today on Patreon, but I just thought I should announce it here too.
The new £4 (+tax) price is in effect.

Well that clearly worked!
Two transactions since the price drop. That’s much more positive. Thank you, guys!
