Today's hottest Internet businesses are all about the power of social networks. Companies like MySpace, Facebook, and YouTube have become worth billions because businesses have realized that these social networks are generating huge advertising and marketing opportunities. As these social networks grow, the economic potential for its owners and the advertisers who target the site's users is remarkable. At AGLOCO, they asked a simple question: The users created the community, where's their share of the profit? It was from this question that AGLOCO set out to create the Internet's first Economic Network, harnessing the power of Internet-based social networks to directly benefit the Members who help to create the community. Becoming a member of AGLOCO is as simple as completing a brief sign-up page (name, age, location and email address.). Once you're a Member, you will be asked to then download the Viewbar software. (Note: the Viewbar software is currently unavailable, as it is in closed testing. It will be ready for public download in a few weeks, and members will be notified when it is available.) Where AGLOCO makes money: "There are a whole bunch of ways AGLOCO makes money on behalf of Members. Here are just a few quick examples. First of all, the Viewbar has a search function you can use to search yahoo, google, etc. Every time you use this search bar, the AGLOCO community makes money. Second, the Viewbar has space for a text-only ad (no loud, flashing banners - just unobtrusive text). These ads make money for the AGLOCO community. Third, AGLOCO has affiliate programs with a number of online retailers. Buy from one of these sites and AGLOCO makes money." Why does AGLOCO use a referral system? "The most valuable part of AGLOCO is its Members. By referring others to AGLOCO, you provide them with value and for that, AGLOCO thinks you should get some of that value you provide. It makes sense. Think about YouTube. The first, most active users were on the site when the software was buggy and there were few videos available, but their Membership (and referrals to others) is what made the site a success. When it was sold for $1.65 billion, how much of that did these first users see? Nothing. With the AGLOCO referral system, Members get more for building the network." Major income potential here. AGLOCO - getting paid to surf is back!
