After more than 10 years providing information to Hispanics in Alaska, publisher Gil Sánchez was forced to shut down his Web site El Sol de Alaska.
Gil tells me that he had two main reasons for calling it quits: “The first reason was all the hate mail, malicious viruses and attacks on the Web site. Secondly, the demand of time in order to do a good job was ever increasing.”
Gil points out there was also a cost issue involved in hosting the site and as he did it as community service, he wasn’t even charging people to advertise on El Sol de Alaska.
