I don't know about you guys, but I like to expand my interests. I'm always looking out for new sources of revenue.
I've been promoting paysites for 3 years now and the money has always been OK. However, lately signups seem to be getting harder and harder to come by. Blame it on whatever... tubes, Bush, Xsales and the list goes on. It still doesn't change the fact that selling a 29.99$ monthly membership is getting damn hard.
So I figured, why not change things around? Why not GIVE stuff away for free and see how I could make money on it? Thats what the tubes are doing no? Thats what TGPs did no? (in a sense).
A buddy of mine showed me this :
Freebie Force
Its a new affiliate system. The idea is instead of trying to sell tangible goods to your surfers, you offer them FREE stuff. The members area is a HUGE list of places where you can go to get free anything!
I joined and found the idea pretty cool. The site is relatively new and I know the design is shit, but the concept still remains excellent.
What I want to know is what you guys think? Do you think its a good idea to try and sell giving away free stuff? Would it be a good cross sale for your mainstream sites? Would you try promoting it?
*BTW, keep aside the pyramid scheme talk, I'm fully aware of how they work and how they stink, blah blah blah. Personally, I find it cool though to join such a program that is just starting up. That means I'm at the top hehe
