Here's is what i thought of the extension:
1) The widget is great, but there should also be a default checkbox for user who don't want the popup to appear when they want to donate. This make it easier to donate an amount say 1ADZ.
2) I already said it before, currently the project is targeting only people who have ad blockers. To increase the audience for the coin, there should be an adblocker along which will make it for publishers a MUST HAVE widget as they will no more earn from ads. Other advantage will be people would want to have the extension not just for saving during shopping, but to tackle the main issue which is "PEOPLE DON'T WANT ADS".
3) Other way to make the project grow, would be to add a widget whereby people will need to click on an unblock button to unlock/read the whole content of an article. I think this needs to start on adzcoindesk.com. But make sure that the unlock button does not open a popup as this will make users unhappy. It should be a button with an auto donate amount, say 1ADZ and this automatically unlock the full content.
Thats my views which i think the project needs to make it auto viral.
Hello,
Thanks for your input!
Well we already have some ideas along with yours, here's an overview:
-> We'll add a "subscribe" feature to the api, so people can automatically donate the ADZ they receive every day (or part of) to the sites they want. They won't even need to click the button making it an automated income stream for website owners as long as the users have their site added to the subscription.
-> That's indeed a good idea, but not possible in Chrome as i already mentioned before. And that's half the users. It's pointless to create an ad blocking extension if there are already tons available. After all people can install it in one click and blocking ads is automated after that.
However, we don't solely tackle ad block users, everybody can use ADZcoin monetization to add an extra income stream to their site. And we're already working on the hyperlink feature. Soon everybody here on the forum can add the donation API to receive ADZ straight to their wallet in their signature. So this will open up a lot of new markets too.
-> The lock button is indeed a concept that will work and we'll definately include that for the API in the near-future. It can also be used to lock anything else, like a download link, to play a video, to access a part of a site etc.
So many options it's crazy.
Cheers,
Jens
