Want to make money off of Digg? Bet on stories that make the frontpage and you could generate a 25% revenue off clicked ads. How does it work? Lynxcache, a free text-only lynx-based browser provides extremely low bandwidth mirrors to sites that have been crashed by the Digg-effect.
Using LynxCache, you generate a mirror site and post it in the comments section of any front-page Digg site likely to crash. You want to get the comment as high and visible as possible. That way, when the site crashes, users can click on the LynxCache link to access the site again. If Diggers head that way and click on any of the ads, you get your 25%. The more sites you provide mirrors too, the more chance you have at earning money.
LynxCache.com In Their Own Words
“Lynxcache is a free lynx browser-based (text-only) mirroring service. It’s main goal is to provide stupidly low-bandwidth mirrors to sites that are otherwise brought down by phenomena like the digg effect, or sites that have been ‘slashdotted’; sites that would get so much traffic all at once as to bring their servers to their knees, or at the least send them running home to mother.”
Why LynxCache.com It Might Be A Killer
Lynxcache certainly has cash appeal. Who doesn’t want to earn money in a quick and easy way? And for those sites that are thoroughly Slashdotted or Digged-out, those left out of the loop can get their fix by using the Lynxnache mirror site.
Some Questions About LynxCache.com
Will Digg and others ban Lynxcache? How many ad will users actually click on? Its seems the chance for making money is slim and whatever amount made would be nominal at best.
