From 1999 to 2001 AllAdvantage paid its users $120 million to surf the web.? In 2001, they went out of business because they only had $100 million to spend. The bad news is they went over budget by $20 million; the good news was that users were able to make a large sum of money.
Today, some of the original founders of AllAdvantage are back and starting a new company called Agloco?which stands for A Global Community.? The concept is simple:
.
You surf the web for up to 5 hours per month and Agloco pays you.
.
Of course it can’t be that simple though right?? Let me give you the details.?
.
That’s all there is. 3 simple steps and Agloco pays you.?You’re probably thinking how can this be so easy right?? Let me tell you where the income comes from.
The advertising companies?that will be on the Agloco viewbar will pay to have their ads there. Agloco will share this revenue with us, the users. It’s a revenue sharing model.
Agloco’s website has a calculator feature that estimates your potential income.? The assumptions I entered below were if you get 10 friends to sign up for Agloco, if they each get 3 friends on average, and everyone surfs the web for?5 hours per month, you would earn 1517.5 per month. This would be split up in cash and company stock to you.
.
.
Agloco plans on taking the company public (onto the stock exchange) and therefore will pay their users with both cash and company stock.? This can work for or against the users.? If the concept really takes off and the stock goes up, we will all benefit.? If the price does not appreciate or they do not go public, then we will only benefit from the cash they pay us.?
Whether Agloco makes it big or not, there is not much for us to lose by trying it out. We all surf the internet for at least 5 hours per month (most of us are probably close to 5 hours per day!) so what do we have to lose??If this sounds as interesting to you as it did me, you can join our Agloco network by clicking the link.?

Nice summary of what Agloco does. I’ve been working on it for a month and just posted an update on my blog, so I know you will definitely have the ability to build your network fast. I’m just wondering who you signed up under. =)
Gary,
We signed up a while ago under John Chow. He was the first person I read about it from so it was only right to give him credit. I like what you’ve done with your Agloco ad on the sidebar.
I notice that you’re one of the first people to join too, based on your referral ID. I’m BBBB6961, so I got in pretty early too. I hear that they’re up to BBCA or something now.
Uggghhh. Those two comments by “Agloco” look like phishign comments.. teh domian leads to agloco.fm or something weird.
You might want to delete that, Jane/Anthony. cheers
Thanks Jeff! Took care of it. There is always one or two that get through.
So you guys are actually using the toolbar? I tried the other day and I couldn’t find where to download it! Maybe I’ll look again….
i detect sarcasm
The toolbar isn’t out yet, but is expected to be out this month. We’ll see how that goes!
I signed up under John as well… I don’t even know if I can find my login/password now!
There is a formating problem with this post, I’m seeing the sidebar at the bottom. Is an image too wide?
We’ve been struggling to fix that. Anyone else have this problem and was able to fix it??
This is a problem the misty theme has with IE 6. As far as I know, the sidebar appears properly on IE 7 and Firefox. We’re trying to fix this for IE 6 but have yet to figure out how.
Check to see if you have an image that is wider than your content div’s width.
Agloco will definitely make some people money. Especially those like John Chow who have built up nice referrals. Also I would assume that after your 5 hours a month if you continue using Agloco the remaining profit goes straight to Agloco. That is where it will really make them profitable.
Then just turn if off after the five hours, though you’d probably be right to say that many people will just leave it on and forget about it.
I would turn it off, but most won’t. Well many won’t.
I wonder if they will make it long term. There were a few different Paid 2 Surf programs back in 1999 - 2002, they all seemed to disappear quick. This business plan seems better though.
I wonder who would pay them for this type of traffic?
Many wont turn it on in the first place, I reckon a lot of people who have signed up wont actually bother using it.
The only thing that irks me about this is the viewbar.
Any idea if it is going to be like a toolbar or something totally different.
Also how do we know it won’t collect info like the Alexa toolabr does. Unfortunately most people have accepted Alexa spying in their lives as there is no other way to track traffic. Some advertisers just don’t want to see your stats no matter how detailed they are.
So any clues, will it be like spyware?
Ali,
Agloco has made it a big point to state on their site that there will be absolutely no spyware or adware on the viewbar.
