ActiveRain's Sponsored Featured Posts
Sponsored Featured post are ads... paid participation. Just like the featured links on Google, Yahoo, etc. Sponsors suppport ActiveRain. Someones gotta pay the bills.
Googles Sponsored Links look like:
Flat Fee MLS is up top now... Featured again. Paying for their space again. The yellow post at the top? It says Sponsored Featured Post at the bottom. It is an ad.
I wondered why people are commenting on the post again. Disparaging comments from other real estate agents about the business model mostly.
On "Flat Fee MLS franchise for your state only $19 day"
Snowballing comments ActiveRain Sponsored Featured Post - an ad
It ran a few weeks back. I made an unfortunate comment back then, then another, then a third. Snowballing....
1. Problem on the website. Technical. Not a problem with his post. I read, I went to the product. In my mind I reported a glitch.
2. Commented back to a comment from the owner of the post / business.
3. Pointed out to someone in the comments that it is a paid post, that it is yellow. That the sponsor paid money for the placement.
Forgive me Scott. I was not meaning to be a heckler about Scott's business model, the post or even that the website is giving error messages. It snowballed.
Look at it. Should I remove my comments? Would you? Or should I just unsubscribe from the comments so I don't have to read anymore comments disparaging the sponsors business model?
Sponsors support ActiveRain... Personally I would rather sponsors pay than me... What about you?
