Gelato Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 (edited) From my understanding the owners of the site are dormant. With every thread and post we make, we are potentially enriching them, keeping the site flowing with new content that they can slap ads around. Similar to Elon Musk's model of revenue sharing on X, should ATRLers be paid to post? Of course, the example of X teaches us there would have to be some controls to prevent engagement farming.

illia Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 If we adopt Twitter's model, then we should also pay monthly for a checkmark The real question is: Should ATRLers pay ATRL monthly? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatyPrismSpirit Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 The fact that there's someone making money off of the ad revenue generated by us beefing over MPGs is... honestly brilliant. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giancor Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I'm pretty sure that is not profitable. they make money by us clicking on those ads (ppc) or just by seeing them, depending on the deal. (CPM) the question is, are we valuable for those companies that are paying atrl? Are we buying the products ? Pretty sure that our clicks have a high bounce rate (bad quality sessions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gelato Posted April 23 Author Share Posted April 23 Ok I will leave ATRL. I didn't realise how many people didn't like my posts, I thought it was only a few. It's mostly just stream of consciousness rambling that I hope to amuse people with and do alongside working on my assignments. But I don't want to be disruptive or negative to people's experience like this 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
