    Happy Birthday, affLIFT!

    Haha, I wasn't sure about sharing revenue, but I think it's best to just be open and transparent with the community. We have a pretty healthy profit margin because we are a Company of One (great book btw) and I plan to keep it that way. It's going to give us the opportunity to continue to do...

    Well, today is the big day. I've been talking about it for about a month now. Our community is officially 1 year old. When I was getting the forum ready to launch, I created my introduction thread and I mentioned that I was worried affLIFT could fail. It's very difficult to launch a project...

    I think it's possible to make these profitable, but you need to get someone who wants to build up a subscriber base in GEOs that aren't as competitive and still get a decent payout. It's definitely tough. I think the push subscription offers are better used as an instrument to learning how to...

    Based on the reports provided by Kintura, I am definitely seeing some bots: In fact, that seems pretty high for the top campaigns. I should probably go through and find the targets/sources where most of them are coming from and pause them.
