When doing my homework assignment about niche social networks in week 5, I found an interesting online networking site. It’s called myfreeimplants.com. Basically, this is a website which makes it possible for women to get free implants because of contributors wants to help these women to get those implants. This is a good example of crowdfunding. The only thing that the women need to do is register on the website, create their own profile, choose their goal, set their limit and make friends. Contributors can chat with the women and when they think that a particular women needs financial help, they can just donate money to these women to make their dreams come true. In exchange they receive photo’s, video’s and messages. Surgeons can also register themselves on the website. The clinic gets paid directly from the website, without fees, forms or delay. I was actually quite surprised that according to this website, they have almost 9 million page views per month.
