Who doesn’t like a bit of news, great information, warm fuzzy stories, learning something new, or just a good chuckle?
We know the challenge it can be to craft good to great to amazing content. Don’t think we’ve hit amazing yet. We’ve always welcomed guest posts from site members. As OutBüro shifts to a paid membership model, we are striving to support the community and grow together.
Earn in 2-Ways
Would you like to share your content on a growing LGBTQ+ global community that rewards you in 2 ways?
Affiliate/Influencer Program
We have to pay for marketing so we might as well provide an optional ability to earn residual income through our Affiliate/Influencer program as you influence your audience (10%), their audience (5%), and their audience (2.5%) to join OutBüro as a Yearly/Monthly member. Yes, that is 3 levels deep. See the Affiliate/Influencer Income Estimatorfor more on that.
Post Performance
We have implemented a system integrated into analytics to track many forms of interaction with a post. Provides an Author Income and Page Performance Dashboard. We want to strive for a good balance of value for all coupled with the 1st revenue stream. From word count, a number of images or videos, total views, unique views, comments, and more for a holistic view. We’ll be working on a Post Income Estimator soon and will update this when ready. We’ll be open to constructive feedback on the base and have the ability to provide per author unique plans if agreed.

Understanding last referrer associated
So, let’s say that we have an Affiliate 1 (John) and Affiliate_1 (John) shares a link. Now, visitor_1 clicks on the link, but they don’t sign up as a Yearly/Monthly Member that visit.
54 days later, a second affiliate named Affiliate_2 (Suzzy) shares a link that the same visitor_1 clicks on and then at that time signs up as a Yearly/Monthly Member. Affiliate_2 (Suzzy) will be attributed and associated with the new Member Subscription account. Thus Affiliate _2 (Suzzy) will receive the commissions from visitor_1‘s subscription fees.
It is therefore important if you are working to attract visitors to OutBüro that you follow up and do what you can to get them to become subscribed members as soon as possible. Engage them frequently to visit the site to keep your cookie active, more likely their last referrer, and ultimately become a subscribing member so that you get them as part of your Affiliate/Influencer Income Stream.
