Lucrative Private Business for Profit?
Who owns & profits BIG from Airstream Forums?
When you visit a 'Public Forum' you may believe the Website exists solely to further the knowledge and interest of the Public....
Some Websites are, in fact, just an extension of a business operating for profit...
Very few businesses operating for profit ask for 'Donations'....
Does the image below look a little fuzzy?
'Airstream Forums' is one of (12) or more Websites owned and managed by just one person
Records currently on file with the Secretary of State in Texas show Andrew P. Robinowitz to be the Organizer - Registered Agent - Manager - Sole Owner of 'Social Knowledge LLC' that operates at least (12) 'Communities' which are actually Websites operated for profit. The 'Social Knowledge LLC' webpage claims these 'Communities' generate a combined current monthly 'Hit' total EXCEEDING 1.5 million with 411,000 viewer hours a month!
There is no record on file of 'Social Knowledge LLC' existing as a 'Non-Profit Organization'
Where does all the revenue generated thru the sale of advertising space and all of the 'Donations' solicited on 'Airstream Forums' go to?
Well, good old Andy can afford to go backpacking in Australia & Southeast Asia and spend 8 months in South America ......
While 'Volunteers' operate his 'Communities' ......
It sure would be nice if we could all solicit 'Donations' to support our ability to travel ......
Every time you visit this website or one of the other (12) 'Communities', every time you read a thread or post a reply you add to the monthly 'Hit' total Andrew P. Robinowtz makes money from the Advertisers who pay to be on the 'Communities' owned by 'Social Knowledge' and this is the same good old Andy who is .......by the way.... seeking your 'Donations'....
Business is doing so good, he is looking for more 'Communities' to buy.......
"We are currently seeking to acquire leading niche forum based communities. If you have a forum community that you would like to sell to a caring owner, please contact us." One such 'aqcuisition' was Mountainbuzz.com
Google 'Social Knowledge' and see what you find - give some thought before reaching for your wallet - perhaps you should be save your money for your own traveling instead!
