Another factor is your community. If they really appreciate your effort to bring them useful and usable information, they are more willing to give back.

That being said, make sure your site's content will make people want to give back.

Another factor is how much you need the money. If you are starting a site, and don't have much money to make a satisfactory site (like me =P), people feel more willing to give to help out. I personally haven't tried this out, but I might.

Two closing thoughts:

- "Buy Me a Coffee" sounds more voluntary, as "Donate" makes you sound needy

- Making profit is always a nice thing, but make sure if your users have given you money to benefit the site, you truly use the money to make the site the best it can be.
