Hi there

Just saw your thread :-)

You are correct - when a member signs up to Swoit, they are free to then go and surf ALL of the sites within swoit for as long as they like, for the lifetime of their membership. That is why the retention we are seeing is unbelievable.
It's as if they had signed up to every site individually as a member.

With regards to the one-hour timer thing - As you know, we reinvest a large portion of our rebills into the paysites that participate in Swoit. We do this by calculating how much time has been spent on each paysite by all our members (each day) and apportioning a large chunk of rebills to each site respectively.

When a surfer wishes to go to a site, they are given an initial block of time of 1 hour. When the timer counts down to under 5 minutes, they are given the option to simply increase their time for another hour.

What this does is stop people going to bed and leaving their browser open all night when they are not using it, and accruing minutes for the paysite they were surfing on by accident!


So in a nut shell :

a) they get unlimited time
b) there are no extra fees or upsells for *anything*


Thanks!

Steve
