Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I support Redwood City Pulse?
In our modern world where small, locally-owned businesses are giving way to large chain stores and online shopping sites, a healthy local news business model must have multiple revenue streams to survive, supported by both advertisers and readers.
Readers supporting the Redwood City Pulse is an essential piece to allowing us to continue providing quality journalism to our community.
Contributing to support local journalism helps fund a professional staff of local journalists who focus on sharing the stories that matter most to our community.
I already get your content for free, so why would I pay?
