Dclick, Monetize your content with ads

otemzi (67)in #media • 6 years ago (edited)

Dclick is a media dapp built on the Steem blockchain which allows its users to monetize their content via ads implementation.

The use of ads is no new thing but most times content creator get paid with little or nothing when third-party sites implement them on their contents.

Dclick is here to change this, using blockchain technology, users will be able to implement ads on their content and get paid for it.

Many users might find this a little bit tiring and in a way spam to their followers.

Ads don't have the best reputation when you surf online frequently.

Most times, you see them overlaying critical information on a webpage, with the option to cancel them not being available.

Dclick saw this and made some few changes to it.

Ads will not overlay content information but rather fixed at the end of the post.

Built on the steem blockchain, the need to own a Steem account is required.

To create a steem account go through this link https://signup.steemit.com/ or use other method listed Here.

Monetize your content

Like the title says, monetize your content with ads.

The monetize section of Dclick comes with different options, unlike before when it was initially released.

Dclick works with the concept of pay per click. Meaning, ads clicked via your content will generate a certain amount of Dclick token for you.

Tokens generated can be traded for votes or hold awaiting SMT

The monetize section is made up of four options which are,

SteemPost
URL
Script and
Business.

The options above provide different means users will be able to generate Dclick tokens

Advertise

Dclick offers a medium where users can implement their own ad and get it seen by thousands of users worldwide.

Using the human interaction present in steem, Dclick users can now share your content across various regions.

To get a full understanding and how to use this, visit their FAQ.

Earn Dclick token

Tokens earned can be tradeable for upvotes or hold pending when SMT comes live.

A minimum of $2 Dclick token is required for the above option to become available to you.

Like most steem based Dapp, payment still comes in two ways,

The default reward in sbd and Steempower when your post cashout and also the Dclick token earned when a user clicks on your ad.

Delegation

Every project or Dapp build on the steem blockchain requires delegation to function.

Dclick is no different.

By creating an incentive for users to delegate, the option to monetize your content with an ad is no longer needed.

Rather, users who delegate to the project get returns in Dclick token.

You start earning Dclick tokens without creating content or even creating an advertisement.

what makes Dclick interesting

Unlike the default payout time (after 7 days), ads are still valid even after post-payout.

Most ads, click to earn platform that overlay your webpage with ads, Dclick does not do such, Ads if implemented are made to show at the rare end of your post.

Creating a spam free ad and also, good pay.

Tools are made available to fight against users who wish to exploit the platform by providing fake clicks and others, if caught, such users will be suspended on the platform.

Dclick is nice and all, but they need more exposure if they truly wish to take over the ad space.

This can be in the form of creating a mobile app which will allow its users to create ads content on the Go.
