🌎 HOW THIS COMPARES TO OTHER WAYS TO EARN ONLINE
THIS ISN’T SOME STRANGE NEW INTERNET THING. 😂
You already understand almost every piece of it.
- YouTube.
- Social media.
- Blogs and newsletters.
- Book and author pages.
- Advertising.
- Affiliate marketing.
- Websites.
FREAK SITES DIDN’T INVENT ANY OF THOSE THINGS.
We just put familiar pieces together differently.
🅿️ FIRST — WHAT IS THE PRODUCT?
A $7 ADVERTISING PRODUCT AND MEDIA ASSET IN ONE — INSIDE WRITERSFREAK.COM.
And because this is Writers Freak, it has to belong somewhere around writing, authors, books, storytelling, publishing, editing, scripts, podcasts, audiobooks, journalism, newsletters, AI, writing tools, services, marketing or the business around words.
It can work like:
- A classified-style advertisement.
- An author page.
- A book presentation.
- A story or essay.
- A writing-service page.
- A publishing or marketing case study.
- A page around a podcast, audiobook, newsletter or script.
- Or some combination of them.
SOMETIMES THE ADVERTISEMENT IS THE MEDIA.
SOMETIMES THE MEDIA IS THE ADVERTISEMENT.
AND SOMETIMES IT’S DOING BOTH AT THE SAME TIME.
- An author can use one to introduce a book.
- A writer can publish something people may actually want to read.
- An editor or ghostwriter can explain what they do.
- A publisher can feature an author, title or opportunity.
- A podcaster or audiobook creator can build around something people can listen to.
- A writing business can promote a service.
- Or somebody can publish a story, opinion or analysis about the writing world itself.
FREAK SITES SOLD THE PARKING SPOT EITHER WAY.
The subject gives somebody a reason to look.
THE PARKING SPOT IS THE ADVERTISEMENT, THE MEDIA CONTAINER AND THE PRODUCT.
▶️ HOW IS THAT LIKE YOUTUBE?
YouTube already has the viewers.
A creator makes something, publishes it and tries to attract some of that attention.
If that creator qualifies for YouTube’s monetization systems, YouTube has ways to turn attention around that media into creator revenue.
WRITERS FREAK PUTS THE MONEY IN A DIFFERENT PLACE.
- I build a Parking Spot.
- I distribute it.
- People look at it.
THE VIEWS THEMSELVES DO NOT PAY ME.
But while somebody is reading or looking at what I created, they’re also looking at the advertising and media product I used to create it.
- Maybe they’re reading an essay.
- Maybe they’re discovering a book.
- Maybe they’re learning about an author.
- Maybe they’re looking for an editor, ghostwriter, publisher or writing service.
- Maybe they’re reading an argument about AI, publishing or whether anybody should still write a book in the first place. 😂
But at the same time, the Parking Spot itself is demonstrating what a Parking Spot can do.
If they think:
“WAIT. I COULD BUILD ONE OF THESE.”
and buy an eligible Writers Freak product through my affiliate relationship?
NOW THERE WAS A PRODUCT SALE.
That’s where the affiliate income can begin.
Different monetization point.
Same familiar Internet behavior:
CREATE → PUBLISH → GET ATTENTION → TURN SOME OF THAT ATTENTION INTO MONEY.
YOUTUBE CAN PUT ADVERTISING AROUND THE MEDIA.
FREAK SITES LETS THE ADVERTISEMENT BE THE MEDIA — WHILE THE MEDIA ALSO DEMONSTRATES THE PRODUCT.
📱 HOW IS IT LIKE SOCIAL MEDIA?
Social media already has the attention.
THE INTERNET ALREADY BUILT THE AUDIENCES.
I DON’T HAVE TO BUILD ANOTHER INTERNET. 😂
- YouTube has the viewers.
- Social platforms already have writers, authors, readers and conversations.
- Facebook already has the feeds and groups.
- Google already has the search intent.
- Amazon already has people looking for books.
I just need the little piece of attention where what I built actually belongs.
Writers Freak doesn’t need to replace those places.
I WANT TO USE THEM.
- A post starts the conversation.
- A video introduces an idea.
- A reply gets somebody curious.
- A search puts somebody in front of the subject.
- The Parking Spot gives that attention somewhere deeper to go.
THE PLATFORMS ARE WHERE I FIND THE ATTENTION.
THE PARKING SPOT IS WHERE I GIVE THE ATTENTION A JOB.
- Read.
- Watch.
- Listen.
- Discover the book.
- Contact the writer or business.
- Follow a link.
- Buy.
📚 HOW IS IT LIKE AMAZON OR A BOOK PAGE?
A book page helps somebody understand what a book is and decide whether they care.
- Title.
- Cover.
- Description.
- Author.
- Maybe reviews or other information.
Useful.
But sometimes I want more room than the store page gives me.
I may want to tell the story behind the book.
Explain why I wrote it.
Add photographs.
Embed a video.
Talk about one chapter.
Tell somebody where else to find it.
Or write something interesting enough that somebody discovers the book without starting out looking for it at all.
THE STORE CAN SELL THE BOOK.
THE PARKING SPOT CAN HELP TELL THE STORY AROUND IT.
Those are different jobs.
📰 HOW IS IT LIKE A BLOG OR NEWSLETTER?
This comparison makes a lot of sense on Writers Freak.
A blog post, article, essay or newsletter gives somebody room to actually say something.
A Parking Spot can do that too.
- Tell a story.
- Make an argument.
- Explain an idea.
- Publish commentary.
- Add photos.
- Embed supported video.
- Link somewhere else.
The difference is that the Parking Spot is also the Freak Sites product being demonstrated while somebody reads it.
THE WRITING CAN BE THE CONTENT.
THE PAGE CAN ALSO BE THE ADVERTISEMENT.
AND THE PARKING SPOT IS STILL THE PRODUCT.
📰 HOW IS IT LIKE CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING?
A classified ad gives you a piece of space.
You put something into it.
You try to connect with somebody interested in what you’re offering.
A Writers Freak Parking Spot can absolutely do that.
But it can also do a whole lot more than a conventional little ad.
- Tell the author’s story.
- Explain the book or project.
- Show photos and video.
- Publish an excerpt or commentary where appropriate.
- Explain a writing service.
- Give somebody a direct way to make contact.
A CLASSIFIED-STYLE ADVERTISING AND MEDIA PRODUCT THAT CAN DO A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN “BOOK FOR SALE — CALL BOB.” 😂
🔗 HOW IS IT LIKE AFFILIATE MARKETING?
- You recommend a product.
- Somebody buys through the qualifying affiliate relationship.
- You can earn a commission.
That part is familiar.
What I like about Writers Freak is that I can show somebody the product I’m talking about.
I don’t have to say:
“TRUST ME. YOU COULD BUILD SOMETHING COOL HERE.”
I can say:
“HERE. LOOK AT WHAT I BUILT.”
The page may be promoting a book, telling a story, explaining a writing service or publishing an argument about something happening in the writing world.
At the same time, it’s demonstrating the Parking Spot product itself.
THE PRODUCT BECOMES PART OF THE SALES PRESENTATION.
🌐 HOW IS IT LIKE HAVING YOUR OWN WEBSITE?
A website gives you somewhere to publish things you control.
Great.
I build websites too. 😂
But not everybody wants to build, host, maintain and organize an entire website just to give one book, story, service, podcast or idea somewhere to live.
A Parking Spot gives somebody a smaller starting point.
ONE PAGE.
ONE URL.
INSIDE A WRITING-FOCUSED SITE.
SEVEN BUCKS.
- Build one.
- Then another.
- Over time, build a collection of what you’re doing.
📣 THE CUSTOMER BUYS THE ADVERTISING AND MEDIA PRODUCT
Maybe they use it to promote a book.
Maybe they use it as an author page.
Maybe they use it to advertise editing, ghostwriting, publishing, narration, marketing or another writing service.
Maybe they use it to publish an essay, commentary, story, podcast page or something around AI and writing.
FREAK SITES SOLD THE PARKING SPOT EITHER WAY.
And if somebody later buys the author’s book somewhere else?
Great.
If somebody hires the editor?
Great.
If somebody signs a publishing deal, buys a course, subscribes to a newsletter or hires a ghostwriter?
Great.
BUT THOSE ARE THEIR TRANSACTIONS.
THE WRITERS FREAK AFFILIATE COMMISSION COMES FROM ELIGIBLE WRITERSFREAK.COM PRODUCT SALES.
🏝️ WHY THE ISLAND HAS GUARDRAILS
This is Writers Freak.
- Authors.
- Books and storytelling.
- Publishing and self-publishing.
- Editing and ghostwriting.
- Copywriting and content.
- Scripts and screenplays.
- Podcasts and audiobooks.
- Journalism, blogs and newsletters.
- AI, writing tools and technology.
- Writing careers, services, education, marketing and business.
The content still has to fit the Island.
- Terms apply.
- Moderation applies.
Seven bucks doesn’t buy somebody a free pass to turn Writers Freak into absolutely anything they want. 😂
THE NICHE IS PART OF THE PRODUCT.
🧩 SO WHAT DID FREAK SITES ACTUALLY PUT TOGETHER?
ADVERTISING + MEDIA
You buy the Parking Spot and use it as an advertisement, a media asset or both at the same time.
PUBLISHING
You build something around books, authors, stories, publishing, services, podcasts, AI or the rest of the writing world that people may actually want to see, read or hear.
EXISTING ATTENTION
You use platforms, readers, audiences, search and conversations that already exist to help people discover what you built.
DISCOVERY
You give the book, author, story, podcast, service or idea another way to be found.
AFFILIATE MARKETING
If somebody sees the product being used and purchases an eligible Writers Freak product through your qualifying affiliate relationship, you can earn a commission.
CONNECTED DISTRIBUTION
If some customers later independently become approved affiliates and create customers of their own, you don’t have to be the only person building.
THAT’S THE COMBINATION.
THE CONTENT GETS ATTENTION.
THE PARKING SPOT IS THE ADVERTISEMENT, THE MEDIA CONTAINER AND THE PRODUCT.
THE VIEW PROVES SOMEBODY LOOKED.
THE SALE CREATES THE AFFILIATE INCOME.
OTHER INDEPENDENT PEOPLE CREATING, DEMONSTRATING AND SELLING THE PRODUCT CREATE THE LEVERAGE.
You already understand the pieces.
Writers Freak just connects them differently.

FOR THE LAWYERS — LEGAL DISCLAIMERS

References to YouTube, social media, Amazon, book pages, blogs, newsletters, classified advertising, affiliate marketing and personal websites are general comparisons used to explain familiar Internet, publishing and writing behaviors.
