It works and it works very, very well. The image represents 1,059 visitors, many coming back 2 and 3 times or more, a total of 98 downloads, many of them of multiple items, yet it also only represents 12 donations—one for $1000.00. That's right. Someone from Facebook donated a thousand dollars and didn't download a darned thing.
Roughly 1416 total visits and 1505 gross. It's as though everyone that visited the site contributed a dollar and that's how my concept is supposed to work. The hell with capitalism. The written word, when it's the truth and has value, should always be free and this unique one-of-a-kind business model, hopefully, will continue to sustain itself.
So that's how this business model was intended to work. Each donation allows 1000s of people who fall into a class of people that I'm in and a class of people that we call financially underprivileged or in harsher terms, America's poor, have the ability to access thousands of PDFs, video and audio files that contain the truth, and always for free thanks to those of us that are just a little better off financially.
One Facebook friend sent me $200 and said go ahead and create a web site. Others sent me another $300. That started the site but that's gone of course and of the $1505 gross this quarter, after paying for 4 months, December and this quarter, only $392 is left which leaves me enough to keep the web site live for about 3-4 months more and that's it. That's scary.
I've invested several hundred hours of my time loading just over 600 products. I still need a high quality web cam and a high quality mic and mic stand to start my live, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, 2-hour Pod Cast where viewers can call in or video chat live. That's another $350 I don't yet have but I have hope. I'm counting on donations to continue this dream. Why all this?
I have more data than I can possibly ever post. I've begun adding 3 products a day to the 595 products I started with.
I want to create a place where the truth can be found regarding almost every issue imaginable with an historic and scientific support background for my children, my grandchildren and their children—for your children, your grandchildren and their grandchildren.
If the historic truth's contained on my web site even now are warped, distorted and even forgotten completely as the coming generations pass, our social system will eventually be totally controllable and controlled. Even with just 600 products my web site contains invaluable truth's not found elsewhere.
The internet makes the truth difficult to find whether you use mainstream or alternative media and the truth is far too easily subverted, distorted or buried completely. Yet I've managed to publish over 75 free eMagazines that contain nothing but the unvarnished truth and my next eMag will expose more truth's than the world might be ready for.
I needed a place where I'm able to post what I want without fear so that the web site I eventually develop, with its collection of Podcasts into my last years of life here on earth can be stored and viewed along with the eMag's I've created, the daily blog I'll be adding to the site shortly and the under-appreciated collected works of 100s of others, ALL FOR FREE.
There are millions of people, young and old, that are flat broke like me, collecting Food Stamps, like me, or disabled, like me, that don't have the ability to buy the truth nor do they have the ability to locate it. I want to aggregate the truth all in one place and I'm well on the way thanks to you.
It just takes a few substantial donations a month, dozens of small ones, or a combination of both to keep this site live and I've made arrangements for my granddaughter to manage it when I'm gone.
The results posted here are without connecting to or using Twitter, LinkedIn, Instagram or any other medium. In fact, I haven't even added anything to the Search Engine Optimization (SEO) yet so my site won't show up on Google unless you use the exact name. These are strictly Facebook results stemming from my personal Facebook posts, so thank you, everyone, thank you more than you can imagine! Those very few who donated and equally, the larger masses I expected who didn't donate and couldn't even if they wanted to. This is exactly what I want. Everything is supposed to be free after all!
I'm working on numerous changes including a 3-times weekly live Podcast, the opening video for the web site and the new web site theme go up Monday (tomorrow) evening, and there's a lot more to come!
I'll get to everything in time.
For now, please share my web site beginning Monday evening when I've added my short personal video and converted the theme making the site far more attractive and easier to navigate. Eventually, I hope by July, to begin getting the web site "out there" using Twitter, Instagram, Reddit and other social media sites ut until then I have this space I'm typing in right here.
Again, thank you all! You, my Facebook friends for the last 13 years, have helped me more than you'll ever really know. This is all passionately thrilling for me, truly rewarding and only possible because of you.
