In this episode we talk about different way you can monetize a sites and social networks: the obvious and not so obvious ones. Ads, subscription fees, micro-transactions, what else is there?
We also look at some recent monetization within alt-tech; namely, Minds.com have recently launched their Pro pages. Charging $50 per month, they now let you customize your channel more, and use it more as a… website?
Minds will pay you 25% of the payments from users who you referred to the network and who purchase Tokens or subscriptions to Minds Pro. Minds also will pay you $0.10 USD for every active user you refer to the Minds network. Not a bad deal at all — if you can do it at scale!
The RPM’s on offer are not shabby either — Minds will pay you $1 per 1000 views you generate, and it ranges all the way up to $5 once you exceed 100k page views/month.
Is it true, that as people mainly hang out on social networks, we don’t need proprietary sites anymore? Take a listen and find out.
