Just out of curiosity - is the business model built around donations from users? This seems like a very important point for a review platform nowadays, I wouldn't necessarily trust a website like this just saying "We won't take money from advertisers", and I don't see how else you'd pay for it (unless you've just decided to dump a bunch of money in this :) )
- hobofan 6y agoAs far as I can tell it makes money they same way as any other review website does: Affiliate links (to Amazon)
- hubraumhugo 6y agoThe credibility and trustworthiness of our users is our biggest asset, so we are very careful with monetizing it too quickly. But we are definitely thinking about monetization and have a few ideas in mind: - A Buy For Life badge/widget that companies could integrate on their website and pay us a fee. - Providing anonymized product data for market research. I.e where do most leather boots break first? What are the stress points of kitchen knives? etc. - And the most obvious one: affilate links
- xenocratus 6y agoThanks, that makes sense! Good luck!
