Ad Free Social Network

Well, it looks like Pleben.com is finished earlier than the anticipated March 1st launch. It is 99.9% ready now, and people can begin signing up. In case you don't know, I have developed an ad-free social network called Pleben.com. Revenues come from an annual subscription of $25. Five dollars will go to charity. Our default charity is the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. If you wish, however, you can designate a charity on your profile. When a minimum of 25 have designated that charity, I will send them a check.

Five dollars of the subscription will go to prizes for contests and possibly scholarships if we get enough teenager interest in the site. Some of the prizes will be random drawings and others will be competitive type contests like stock picking contest for example. The remainder will be for costs associated with the site, marketing, upgrades to technology, etc. I figure it will be a long time, if ever, that I would even consider taking a salary.

I would hope that eventually we might be able to get a fair number of subscribers so that we can offer some meaningful cash prizes. Our first drawing will be for $1000 when we hit 1000 subscribers. A $1 million prize will be available at 1 million subscribers with many levels in between. See the FAQ for details on this. I hope people will check out the site and email me with any questions at pleben.com@gmail.com. Also, feel free to sign up and check out what we have to offer. By getting in early, you will have a good opportunity to win some money.
