Have you heard of this? It’s all over the blogosphere and Bill Gates has been quoted as saying he believes it “will be the next big thing to hit the internet”, so what is Agloco and will they really pay you for surfing the net?
Rubbish! (or words to that effect) I hear you shout.
I too was sceptical when I heard about it but after spending a few hours googling and reading about it, I have not only come round to the idea but am now thinking it could really work.
How much does it cost me?
Nothing, nada, zilch, £0, $0, €0
What do I have to do?
First you need to sign up, for free, and then you will need to download the viewbar – the viewbar is not ready yet but is expected to be ready for download in about 2-4 weeks. The viewbar will look like this;
and simply sits at the bottom of your screen whilst you browse the web, post to your blog, read other blogs, answer your email, do your online shopping etc etc, thus;
It is not spyware nor does it contain viruses, it simply a toolbar that contains contextual advertisements and a search bar.
How do I earn money from it?
1. By doing exactly what you are doing now, surfing the net, but this time with the Agloco viewbar open on your screen. As of December 22, 2006 Agloco states that for each hour surfed you will gain one share up to a maximum of 5 hours surfed per month, which means that you only have to have the viewbar open on your screen for 5 hours a month. I don’t know anyone, even my grandparents, who spend that little amount of time on the internet each month.
2. You also get paid for the amount of time the people you refer spend on the net, for example since the max amount you can earn with the viewbar is five shares per month (equal’s 5 hours surfed), each time you refer someone and they use the Viewbar for five hours per month, you will gain one extra share for each hour (To a maximum of 5 hours) that they surfed, and then it goes one level
deeper and includes the people that they refered. That could be a whole lot of people. There is one guy, John chow, who has around 3611 referrals on his account, only 455 of which were direct (people that clicked on the link from his website or his emails) the rest are referrals from his referrals! That’s how it works.
3. You earn part of the company based use of the viewbar that month.
4. As a member you will also get a share of any commissions the company gets when another member purchases a product or service from a sponsor company.
What is the referral system? How do I do that?
Simply refer as many people as you can by telling them about it on your blog, having a clickable link on your blog, emailing your friends/family/contacts about it and just generally getting the word out. When you join up you will get given an ID code which the people you refer need to use to sign up and a link that goes directly to the sign up page that includes your ID code. The more people you refer the more money you make.
If the viewbar isn’t available yet why should I sign up now rather than wait and see?
The idea of signing up and starting now is getting as many referrals as you can before the viewbar comes out. Agloco aims to have 10 million users by July 2007, if you wait six months how many people that you know or that visit your site still won’t be members? You want to sign up now and start referring people before they have heard of it, before someone else gets to them…because they will. Is this a scam?
No. It is founded by people with a history of successful startups and it doesn’t cost anything to join, so you have nothing to lose
Will this actually work?
Most probably, yes. This man seems to think so:
Bill Gates said: “I like the idea behind Agloco, with their solid background and outstanding performance I believe that they will be the next big thing to hit the internet”
A google search on Agloco brings up 1 430,000 search results already and that is only since it started about 6 months ago which means it is definitely something people are talking about and if someone was paying you to surf the internet with their viewbar open for just 5 hours a month don’t you think you would? If someone was paying you for using their search box you would probably use that as well right? Well so would everyone else, so if people are using it then advertisers are going to be falling over themselves to advertise on it right? Thus creating even more money which will surely bring in even more users and so on and so forth.
Is their a minimum age?
Yes, you must be at least 13 to join.
Is it spyware?
A: No, Agloco is not spyware. There is a tool bar to install, but Agloco is totally committed to privacy. They do not sell, rent or give away your personally identifiable personal information to any marketer or advertiser. For more details, see their published Privacy Policy.
Is it a virus?
No. When you download the toolbar from the Agloco site, it will be virus-free.
Do I have to click on ads to make money?
A: No… all you need to do is to actively surf the Internet with the toolbar installed for up to five hours PER MONTH, and get others to join Agloco to do the same.
