Hello Stackers,

The Basics

Content locking is a monetizing solution that can be used on pretty much all types of web content, you can achieve better results with this than PPC believe it or not. Content locking can be integrated into pretty much all monetization styles, the most popular method is to have a widget popup when the website visitor hits the locked content, example:
6798 notice how the graphic hides the content (text) from being accessed.

The content locker will abruptly take control of the page, asking the visitor to complete an offer. Content locking networks have sponsors just the same as MaxBounty does be it an email submit, survey, or perhaps a trial or download. The person locking his/her content with the locker gets paid each time one visitor completes the process, when they do this the content is unlocked for the duration chosen by the content locking affiliate. When locking you can choose to have your locker unlocked for a minute/day/week it’s up to you, when unlocked the visitor will gain access to the intended link/share offered by the affiliate.
