Is the affiliate/ referral link dead? I do hope so...
Back in the heady days of 2008, the original Arseman blog had similar content, but was a sea of banner ads, movie consoles and images that took you to paid galleries. Why? Because that was just how it had to work back then.
So I created this 'masterpiece', and then spent a disproportionate amount of time directing viewers to wards it to click an d hopefully generate some revenue. It left so little time for actually posting porn!
But now with STEEMIT I can spend more time sifting through my vast collection of images, curating and sorting, to bring you the best botty- pics, knowing that anyone who appreciates my labours can upvote, and I get some reward without having to chase endless referral schemes, etc.
And of course, I don't have to worry about my blog getting shut- down for hosting too many ads, or inappropriate content.
But the upshot of this STEEMy wonderfulness is that now I feel really sad when I see a post with referral links.
This is a new age. We don't need referral links. Focus on the content. Make your viewers happy.
This is STEEMIT.
The other really great thing is that unlike a few cents dropping into an affiliate account from someone blindly clicking a banner, an upvote (or even a resteem) is an endorsement- someone actually appreciates what you have done- it means so much more than the money sometimes...
