(up one level)

pinpointerfavicon w green border.jpg (1441 bytes)  Pinpointer can evolve into a destination site in its own right.

 
Recognition & awareness can be driven by:
-- Ongoing content-item "likes" in social networks introducing users to Pinpointer in general
-- Purchased search terms
-- Media courting (especially once usage starts to take off)
Advantages:
-- Able to ensure an optimal revenue-sharing mix.  This is currently envisioned as:
65%  Content creators/owners
25%  Taste mavens
10%  Download site/Pinpointer
-- Optimal revenue sharing mix enables the service to grow to its full potential
-- Maximum growth means maximum revenue (for all parties)
Disadvantages:
-- Additional development & operating expense for directly hosting and selling content
-- Additional time & effort to become established as a destination site
-- Potential to be seen as a threat rather than a partner in new content areas
