New features added.

Now you can append affiliate link with "&frame" parameter to show the state of the advertising campaign and to allow visitors to submit their bitcoin addresses (thus becoming affiliates too).

Example: http://btcurl.com/?url=http://btcurl.com&frame&partner=13KnzC8XRLu5DDca3shPnZDsU8EpqmcEJQ
(or colored version: http://btcurl.com/?url=http://btcurl.com&frame=ffa&partner=13KnzC8XRLu5DDca3shPnZDsU8EpqmcEJQ)

Pay for attracted affiliates via
Code:
http://btcrelay.com?url=http://btcurl.com/visitors/unpaid?url=

If you specify withdrawal interval upon paylist creation then your visitors will see how much will be paid out and when. Otherwise they will see when the last payout was done.

Hour-based reports in CSV-format are available too:
Code:
http://btcurl.com/visitors/last//hours?url=
http://btcurl.com/affiliates/last//hours?url=

The fact that payments have to go through a third party is a bit worrisome.

Actually you don't need to send payments through a third party. You can pay according to csv data yourself.

I'm looking forward to client side software that allows visitors donate directly to those content creators from which they consume in proportion to their consumption. Ideally, a browser addon that works with embedded addresses in the content that keeps track of how many times you visit a webpage or watch a video, and then gives you hard data about what you consume, how often, and gives an address to send to. No third parties required to transact, or even raise privacy questions with.

So, instead of helping site owners to attract new visitors and to pay for it, you want to help visitors to donate for the services they use the most? I like the idea and donation-better-than-taxation approach! I don't know how to create browser addons yet, but maybe it's a good reason to learn  Smiley

This service is a simple affiliate program for your site. No registration needed. Just publish the link of the form:

Code:
http://btcurl.com?url=&partner=

Users that click this link are redirected to and their unique visits are counted for . Everybody can replace with his/her own address to become affiliate. You can pay for attracted visitors with the link:

Code:
http://btcrelay.com?url=http://btcurl.com/visitors/unpaid?url=

If you don't hate frames, publish the link of the form:

Code:
http://btcurl.com?url=&frame&partner=

It enables visitors to submit their bitcoin addresses (see example). Each submitted address counts for both visitor and affiliate. Use the following link to pay for attracted affiliates:

Code:
http://btcrelay.com?url=http://btcurl.com/affiliates/unpaid?url=

You might want to create a periodic paylist at btcrelay. Note: you won't be able to edit it, but you can always create a new one  via modifying (e.g. appending it with "#").
