Chaturbate - What's the story behind how they got started?
Seems like a pretty big undertaking, and I remember when they first launched they were small and didn't seem to have a huge budget.

What's the story behind how they got started? What was their strategy?

Seems like they're doing very well now

Offer lots of free pussy. Charge for requests and privates. Give small portion to said pussy. Rinse, repeat.

They were paying out $1 per free signup IIRC... I seem to remember a lot of GFY members going mental on the promotion - Along with the subsequent uproar when they stopped it cause it wasn't possible to maintain it for an unlimited time...

Yes chaturbate had big budget, several affiliates I know was getting paid $5k per period or more, that's for FREE users, multiply that for all affiliates that's million(s) paid to affiliates in first year or two. This was an adequate budget, not a small budget.

Yup. Same here. They (WEGcash) closed up shop suddenly and just re-branded themselves as a new entity and thumbed their noses at those that they owed.

Fuck WEG, fuck Chaturbate.

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe the the chain of events was:

WegCash -> XProfiles -> Chaturbate

And for what it's worth there's nothing outstanding here from Wegcash, they closed but I think they paid out affiliates.

I was in the adult internet business already. I watched the decline of the paysite model as tube sites became huge. I also wasn't happy with the existing free cam sites and thought I could do a better job.
