Reply to "How Is Auctiva Possibly FREE?"

iconandcoMember

Free sites generally make their money through advertising. Myspace, youtube, and bebo are all totally free and therefore millions of people sign up to them. So they now have a huge number of people they can directly advertise to and generally they know these peoples details so can tell the company who wants to advertise exactly what age range and profile they are advertising to.

So the free website can go to someone who wants to advertise and say: i have so many users on my site every day, put an advert or pay-per-click banner on my page and may me for it. And that is how myspace, and all the other free networking sites end up making millions. I guess auctiva hopes to grow and grow and then they can charge more and more for the adverts they let onto their pages.

Does this help?
