Bloggers find it hard to collect money in the .ru zone

73 percent of those who took part in an unofficial survey supported the idea of the owners of popular websites and blogs collecting donations, if the convenient tools to do this were available, which they are not at the moment. Only recently, Yandex launched a project called Give us a rouble, mate! The project enables the set up of a “Give us a Rouble” button on one’s website, alongside similar “Give me three”, and even “Give me five” buttons, where a visitor, by pressing these buttons, makes a mini transfer with a single click of the mouse from his or her electronic wallet in the Yandex.Money system to the wallet of the site creator. This is more convenient than publication of account numbers and it is more cost-effective than SMS texting (the operator takes half of the text payment). However, there is a clear shortcoming and that is that far from all users in the .ru zone use the Yandex.Money payment system.
