Today marks 6 years since I launched affLIFT ![Rocket :rocket: π](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f680.png)
And what a crazy 6 years it has been...
I've said this a few times, but I did not expect affLIFT to ever get this big.
In fact, in my intro thread here on affLIFT before it launched I even mentioned how I was worried it would fail:
I hoped I would be able to build a fun community that would be helpful to my publishers at PeerFly and spark interesting conversations about affiliate marketing. I hoped the business would be sustainable and pay for itself.
Well, now I own PeerFly and I've worked on affLIFT full-time for years![Big grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Who would have thought?
Over the past year, affLIFT has passed 100,000 members. You guys/gals have created thousands of posts helping cement our spot as the most active and helpful affiliate marketing forum online![Grinning face :grinning: π](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png)
What is next for affLIFT?
Well, I want to make sure we continue to reward members for their contributions to our community. Originally, I did this by hiring those members as Community Leaders, but recently we've also started offering a RevShare to everyone![Money bag :moneybag: π°](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f4b0.png)
We're also going to continue to leverage our massive community reach by getting companies to sponsor bigger and bigger contests![Thumbs up :thumbsup: π](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/1f44d.png)
And, we're going to dig. We're going to keep digging into ad formats, ad networks, affiliate offers, etc. until we strike gold. Affiliate marketing is special because it provides a way for anyone, anywhere in the world, to make money online with a massive potential upside.
I've seen it many times and I am sure I will see it many more times before we turn 7.
So, happy birthday affLIFT. Thank you for helping provide for my family and creating such a great community I'm so proud to be a part of![Red heart :heart: β€οΈ](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/2764.png)

- my intro thread from 2018I'll be honest, I am nervous about launching this forum. I believe it should be successful, but everyone has a nagging feeling that they're going to fail when starting something new. There are a lot of variables.
I hoped I would be able to build a fun community that would be helpful to my publishers at PeerFly and spark interesting conversations about affiliate marketing. I hoped the business would be sustainable and pay for itself.
