Alternative to Patreon? Clica.net, a membership platform based on Bitcoins

Yes, I'll turn the email notifications on by default.

Oh, and it's possible to change the URL of your page too, when you click settings you can change that big number to something more recognizable like my page for example: https://www.clica.net/user/clica

Looks interesting, I'll check this out.

Especially as I have been looking into a patreon for doiownashitcoin.com one day.

Cheers

Good tip, didn't notice that at first.

Changed it to: https://www.clica.net/user/daan

Now it's a bit more readable

Wow! another alternative on likes of Patreon site. I will test this out later on and give some feedbacks. Reading eternalgloom posts gives out already sites impressions.Good work

Nice! You're welcome to create your page there

Edit: NO FEES.

I'm thinking to add then some faucet page too, where the user can see some ads in exchange for Bitcoins (still studying this).

About the fees, when the owner of the page request the withdraw, 9% will be deducted as our commission. The fee is needed so we can keep growing, the only way to make all 100% free is to put advertising on the website like pop-ups or banners, but I don't like this idea.

That's some big fees. Patreon only takes 5% of successfully-processed payments.

You sure you don't want to lower that a little bit?

Sure, we are still studying about the fees yet but I'll reduce. Patreon fees are 10% (5% for them, 5% for banks). From these 9%, I'll probably need pay some 2% or 3% for the blockchain transactions fees when paying the creators.

I started promoting on my Twitter some pages there that already uploaded some header or profile image. Soon, I hope to promote on the website too when the website reaches more users

Edit: I added a shortcut for page url's too, right now. No need to put the /user/ on the link anymore. Example: https://www.clica.net/clica

It will redirect (301) to https://www.clica.net/user/clica

Thanks for the feature on your Twitter account! I'm still going to write that article soon, possibly tomorrow.
First have some family obligations because of the holidays, you know how it is Wink

Gave you a follow and retweeted your post.

Also consider creating a Steemit account for yourself, be sure to mention it when you do, then I'll add you to my auto-upvote queue.

You're welcome

Don't worry and happy holidays! Since our last talk, I added a better editor for posts, now you can add external images, bold, italic, YouTube videos on your posts. I'm adding now the possibility to put attachments on the posts too and to embed the attachments inside the post (if it's image).

Thanks for the follow. I created an account on Steemit 3 weeks ago, but it was not approved yet.

Edit: Here a screenshot showing the new editor: https://i.imgur.com/2cgxc57.png

Yeah, they're actually not approving many accounts right now, it's better to just pay a small fee to create one through either Blocktrades or AnonSteem.
Then it's instant

Nice! I think Promotion matters alot. If the project is useful and irresistible many will come.

If you can convince popular youtubers and crypto 'influencers' to use it then it is a site worth using.
You should consider adding a donation button.
Good job.

You've already seen it on Twitter, but I'll mention it here as well.
I've written an article for you and got some pretty positive responses on it.

I hope it brings some more people to your platform

That was amazing! Thank you very much!

Yes, it's helping a lot, new people are registering there, and soon I'll post here more updates I'm doing (including the multilanguage feature)

Thanks man, the donation page is already set here: https://clica.net/clica

I'll edit my own tiers to tell people to donate there if they want to support the project. Another way to support is voting on the software by clicking on the like button on this page: https://alternativeto.net/software/clica-net so other people will discover the website as an alternative to Patreon too.

I'm adding more features here and the topic will be updated soon with these new things.

Thank you all

I've just trying to sign up the website, and so far is so good. I'd like the straightforward design. It would be a great alternative for Patreon, a censorship-free membership platform that offers cryptocurrency. Further developments and marketing still needed though, it requires a room to grow before the website able to gain widespread user.

Thank you very much =)

Yes, I'll do some marketing too to promote the website and users inside too when I finish the "explore creators" page. I'm just waiting more pages to create this feature.

Well sign me up!

I’ve just created a page for my own command-line social network, Blackpage. Nice work Clica! Looking forward to using your platform.

Nice! Your page and project is very good =) Welcome aboard!
