Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the One Buck Wiki?
The One Buck Wiki is a community of entrepreneurs, web marketers, and normal people who want to promote their busineses online and benefit from the collective traffic that's generated by other page-owners and our viral marketing.
Join us today and benefit from being part of a community that works as a team to bring traffic and promotions.
You can buy a page for only 20 dollars (Going up to $30 soon!) where you can promote your blog, e-store, or any other website. The page(s) you buy will solely have your content and no one elses.
Your ten dollars are spent wisely on advertisements and reviews such as JohnChow dot com.
OBW's slogan is P.T. Barnum's "I rather make 1% from 100% than make 100% from 1%."
How are you different from all the other paid wikis?
After every 1000 pages that are bought, price of each Page will increase in value.
Why does the price increase?
We did a rough calculation that every 1000 pages of content, values of pages should go up accordingly to number of backlinks. Well, that's our guess anyways. Once we hit about 5000 pages, we should just really rocket forward.
Price of one Page will follow the following schedule:
- 1000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $10
*2000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $20 - We are here now!
- 3000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $30
- 4000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $40
- 5000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $50
- 6000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $60
- 7000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $70
- 8000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $80
- 9000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be sold for $90
- 10,000 Pages sold - a new Page on the One Buck Wiki will be $100
That mean if you bought 20 Pages today, value of your pages will be worth at least 50% more as soon as the we sell over 3000 pages!
Prices will go back up to $30 in about a month or two.
So if you buy pages now, you WILL benefit from investing in the OBW.
Notice: You are free to re-sell your pages at your price at any time.
