The Free IQ Experiment

Free IQ is a new site --still in the beta stage-- that may revolutionize the way people access information on the internet. It is free to join, and all members can both access and upload content. The focus is on material that contains valuable information of some kind.

There are already at least hundreds of videos and other items posted on Free IQ. While most video sites, such as YouTube, have content that is basically random, or entertainment-oriented, Free IQ is information-centered. While a lot of the content so far is related to the field of internet marketing (reflecting its first members, no doubt), the potential is there for people to share their knowledge in any realm.

When members post content to Free IQ, it is ranked by other members. This way, the content that people find most valuable rises to the top of the search engine. Whereas normal search engines are usually controlled by shrewd marketing tactics, the rankings at Free IQ are meant to reflect the value to users.

So the format of IQ is that of a search engine; indeed, the home page looks like a typical search engine page. The content, however, is much more focused and value-filled than on a typical search engine. There is also a social networking aspect to FreeIQ; a page where members describe themselves and can create their own mailing list.

There is also a two-tier affiliate program which is free to join. This means affiliates earn commissions on anything purchased by those who sign up under them, and also on the second level; that is, they earn commissions on sales made by affiliates of their affiliates.

Free IQ is a commercial endeavor, so most of the content is designed to ultimately produce sales or customers. However, this does not mean that the postings are mere ads; on the contrary, there is quite a bit of substantial content posted there, giving users a real taste of the product and not a mere morsel.

As a new endeavor, the future of FreeIQ is uncertain. It's something of an experiment that either will or won't take off. As I can see the potential for a vast and diverse site full of interesting content, I'm hoping more people will join the experiment and move it in all kinds of unpredictable directions.
