At the top we were doing 85 million banner views a day, with 1.5 million registered users. www.Friendsurfer.com is the latest round that hs come out of that company and is a social networkign site like friendster and myspace.. It does pretty good for a non adult company. |
Interesting, I was heavy into the paid to surf scene right from the get go and my 100k+ referrals spread out between all the programs earned me a few bucks for about 10 months. I remember Cashsurfers came along a few months after the early ones and managed to last longer because of lower payouts and affiliate offer incentives, something many of the others failed to capitalize on. When tech stocks crashed in March of 2000, all the IPO hopes vanished along with all the venture capital funding and things ended quickly. Just curious when you say you'd be silly rich if you'd started earlier, is that because you believe you would have capitalized more on the high ad rates or because you could have achieved an IPO?
I was involved early in the development of Refmaker and the AIC forums at delphi.com, if that means anything to you. I had a friend Rick, move to Bakersfield and work for Cashsurfers, not sure if you were still behind it then. The crash of that scene was actually a good thing for me, even though all my referrals basically became worthless overnight, I searched for new revenues streams and found the adult market.
