Is People String the Next Facebook?
People String has launched their social media site on September 23rd of 2009. They are making a bold attempt to compete with giants like Facebook by paying anyone and everyone to recruit members. It will be an uphill battle to get people to try their social media site, but advertisers are confident this approach will work in their favor.
Members get paid for every person they recruit, to look at advertising and even just for logging in everyday. Owners are betting that this is money well spent and far less expensive than the massive campaign it would take to change the minds of millions of Facebook users. The problem for advertisers is that they are loosing there audience. People tune them out or avoid them all together. New technology such as TIVO and the growing popularity of an ad free internet experience has pushed advertisers towards this new strategy to get their audience back. Just pay them for their time.
It can potentially be quite lucrative, for those willing to recruit People String’s behalf on an ongoing basis.
Fifty cents per recruit can go a long way when you consider that it is set up 6 levels deep. For example, if each recruitee adds 5 people and each of those five do the same (1 recruits 5; 5 recruit 25; 25 recruit 125, etc.), in this scenario that adds up to almost $4000 in their pocket. Will the public take them up on their offer?
People String claim to have put together something they call “Facebook on steroids”. Currently in its infancy, the site is said to grow over time with features that should attract greater numbers. It may turn out that the allure of money will help them become one of the new giants on the internet scene. On the other hand, people have grown ever so weary of any online money making opportunity. Keep an eye out for this one. The company claims they already have grown to the size of what was twitter 18 months ago.

I have heard of People String but never got to visit the site. Reading through your lens, it seems pretty interesting and could probably be the next Facebook.
Hi all is very nice and all is very impressive thanks for great info and also a great article sharing all is really very great.
Hey great blog I love your explanation of people string.
.-= Malik´s last blog ..What is Peoplestring ALL ABOUT? =-.
Interesting concept but the real question is why does it automatically have me being referred by this Danny_Richards character, presumably the same one who wrote this article. Who are you Dan. Richards? Why should I really join your pyramid scheme? I’m not saying its a bad idea but I’d rather not be in the downline of a complete stranger. Is it possible to registered with no referral?
