A unique social search and bookmarking platform was launched approximately five years ago. This site operates with an open web index and is powered by human collaboration and participation. It features an innovative online advertising model known as Pay-Per-Chat.
Over the years, the site has amassed more than 107,000 registered users and over 600,000 submitted links. To date, more than $25,000 has been invested into the platform, which is entirely custom designed and developed. Initial promotional efforts at launch included some public relations and marketing.
The platform operates on a dedicated server, incurring a cost of $100 per month, and was developed using PHP and MySQL. The database grows at a rate of approximately 3MB per day.
The site has been incorporated into several social bookmarking widgets and tools, including AddToAny, AddThis, ShareThis, Social Twist, and Shareaholic.
Additional revenue details are available but were not disclosed in the provided information.
