John Chow has emailed the Agloco crew after he noticed that their SSL certificate was not renewed anymore. Guess what? Agloco’s development team has replied and it seems they have admitted defeat. Agloco is dead!
Dear John,
We would like to update you on the status of AGLOCO’s operations. We continue to believe in the AGLOCO concept, but our revenue is currently not sufficient to give Members a meaningful distribution. And though there are increases in membership, the resulting revenue is not enough to support operating costs. As a development team we are unable to continue to use our savings to fund the operations. If any Member would like to pursue continuing the operations of AGLOCO, you may contact us at agloco1@live.com.
We would like to thank every Member for supporting our effort to bring a piece of the Internet directly to the user. We hope that we can find a way to keep the operations going.

So why is the site still active and why can people still sign up? A puzzle that MR Chow has probably answered in that very same post - Agloco might still be building a mailinglist! What better way to utilize a top 3,000 Alexa site where you require people to sign up? As doubtful as we were about the whole system, seeing that their first attempt ‘AllAdvantage‘ failed miserably too, we hate to do it now, but; TOLD YOU SO!

What makes us even more biased is the fact that the site still seems to be operational, as if nothing ever happened. Is this just one big email address harvesting operation? We bet the list Agloco has managed to generate hold millions of valid email addresses and this is worth gold in the right hands! Its times like these where we miss Kumiko’s anti-Agloco posts…sigh.
If you’re all a bit disappointed in Agloco’s performance, we’ve come to find that DealDotCom, we’re sure you guys remember them, have proven to be a steady money maker, and depending on how you embed them on your site, you can make a nice bit of spare change from them. You’ll notice how we use the very end of our comments section with the ‘deal of the day’ image. If you’re looking to get images like that, Jason has made a special page available for that purpose, have a look at their screenshot page.
