So does Bizdustry.com has any Angel Fund or VC fund investing? Or is it out of your own pockets? And what are your initial as well as long term plans?

Hello. How do you control spam? Are you ready to stop paying users for some until you get rid of bad posters? What do you think about adding pop up ads on site to increase revenue?

What made you decide to run an online paying forum since they aren't always profitable?

Please do not take it otherwise but as I read on a thread post that you can veto moderators' approval on your site then what is the role of moderators in this case?

What was the inspiration behind Bizdustry? And how did the name come about?

Hi Alex, why do all revenue share sites and forums pay peanuts for our contribution, with which we can not even pay either our monthly electricity bills or telephone bill?

It was great, thank you. Spent time with family and we ended up going out to a restaurant . I have released some information on Bizdustry early, for 2021.

I actually bought the website. Biz stands for "business" and dustry stands for industry. It's a unique name and concept in comparison to other GPT forums.

GPT or PTP forums struggle to recoup the expenditure from their budget. Publisher Advertising platforms pay very little for impressions and CPC. Bizdustry is trying to pay a fair amount to our members, for the work they provide.

I've wondered this one myself, do the Moderators not understand the rules? I'd get pretty mad too if posts I had waited to have approved got approved and then were later declared junk. Consistency is such a fine word...

I understand your frustration, I would be too. I have spoken to my team, and briefed them on the moderation policies so this shouldn't be happening again.

Hi Alexander, thanks for starting your AMA.

What country do you live in?

Are you a full time webmaster or do you something else full time?

What city do you call home to, if it isn't the one you currently live in?

Note: Do not send me FC, if I haven't agreed to do something yet. If you send me FC and I hadn't agreed to do something, consider it as a donation, as I will not pay it back to you. Donations sent without an agreement every single time, are considered as donations. It will not be refundable, if I do not agree to it in each instance.

Thanks!
