BURSTize - Ad revenue based asset from ads on forums.burst-team.us & burstcoin.biz

@daWallet Thank you for your reply, and I'm looking forward to what @haitch has to say. I too am very optimistic about this asset.
I would like to add one more suggestion. I have highlighted in the picture what I believe to be the most valuable adspace on the forum as it's designed right now. That little spot is $$$. I suggest trying out affiliate text links such as "8TB Mining Drive For $180" or whatever the best price you can find. With an adserver solution, this can be geotargetted as well. Autorefreshing of the ad space such as an iframe every minute or so could be implemented. Also, this would be a very lucrative spot to offer for direct sales.
Also, I know you probably don't like google services much after your account was dropped, but they still are the leader in website tracking. It also takes the load off of your server.

@ryanw The piwik links blew up when I had to move to the multi proxy setup to stop the site being taken down by the DDoS attacks. I haven't figured out the exact why's and wherefore's that Piwik broke yet, but will be back on it when I get home - out of town at the moment with dubious internet connectivity.

@haitch Ok. I know you two have other things on your plate, but I want to stress that building this out now will enable you to cash in on future traffic increases. Unfortunately, this isn't a set it and forget it thing. It's a lot of work tweaking ads and offers and seeing what works best. It's something you need to stay on top of constantly.

@ryanw daWallet is managing it due to my limited availability. We're doing our best to stay on top of it - but real life often interferes with crypto life.... Sorry.

I would like to also turn your attention to co-reg advertising possibilities. These are completely unobtrusive to the regular visitor of the forum. Basically, you add a little javascript to your forum registration code, and a person can check whether or not they want to sign up to an email list....that's it.
At the very least, this could possibly help fund a faucet. I wouldn't mind if some of my BURSTize dividends were used for faucet donations...We would have to see what everyone else thinks.

@ryanw Something we can look at, but the first issue would be just finding the registration code, second would be incorporating it.

@haitch Here are a couple places to start:
-
@haitch Forgot to add this one :)
https://www.npmjs.com/package/nodebb-plugin-custom-registration-fields
-
@haitch Also maybe another useful plugin to look at https://community.nodebb.org/topic/4337/nodebb-plugin-ns-custom-fields-ns-custom-fields

I also thought I'd ad a link to the android app development for NodeBB. Get this configured right, and many people would use it. It would expand the userbase of the forum, the burst community, and tt would be easy to put unobtrusive advertising on an app for Burstize...
