LabConnect - INSTALLATION AND DEMONSTRATION

Evil Genius walks you through LabConnect for your SocialGO and Zocku sites.

An extremely powerful monetization tool for owners of multiple sites. LabConnect provides the power to join a Primary Site with an unlimited number of Sub-Sites so that members can log in with one set of credentials across all connected sites.

You can now create an entire private collection of related sites that you control yourself or with a group of business associates. Since members will be able to utilize the same credentials across all connected sites, you can charge a universal membership fee for the collection (via the Primary Site), in addition to any fee for joining a particular Sub-Site.

Purchase one copy of LabConnect for your Primary Site, and one copy of LabConnect for each of the Sub-Sites that you would like to "connect" to your private collection. Setup each LabConnect to point new members to the Primary Site for their initial signup... and you're done. Easy!

    Hey Evil, do they get a member "page" on each site in this "network"

    Not sure I understand your question?

    LabConnect works when you have a Master Site and Sub Site. Each person who joins a Sub-site DOES become a member and has a "page" on the Master Site (yes) and can be managed independently from that point onwards as if they were two unique sites.

    So, after initial login and creation of the member page on the sub site using LabConnect, the SubSite membership can be terminated, suspended or the member details changed at any time without having any effect on the membership of that person on the Master Site (and vice versa). It is only when someone has NO credentials at all on the SubSite that it goes to "find them" at the Master Site using LabConnect, then propagates the same on the SubSite.

    Our upcoming LabAffiliate product will take that all one step further and provide permanent and ultimate control and reporting of all the relationships between a master site and sub sites and allow for tracking, reporting, managing capabilities ... thereby empowering site owners (like you) to create a complete referral network of sub sites where everyone joins the Master Site first, then can become an immediate free or paid member of any or all subsites (just like in your dreams!)

    LabAffiliate is coming up next after Arcade 2 and Virtual Gifts/Drinks...

    Cheers!

    If I am importing member files from Ning to a subsite here on SG, do I import to the master site, or the subsite?

    @iceman

    If you want those credentials to be used later for sub-sites, then put them on your Master Site (to allow members to claim their passwords, please notify us so we can have socialgo reset all passwords to "1234" or similar after you first import the Emails, then members can claim their accounts without trouble).

    Once your members are setup on the main site, they can then join any subsite you choose to "connect" to that Master Site using LabConnect.

    @Luke

    Virtual Gifts and Drinks will allow members to send each other virtual gifts and drinks! (hahahaaha.... yes, it's just that simple)

    Arcade 2 does not have a scoring system, it is simply another 200 or so games that can run alongside your existing pack of games from Arcade 1.

    Will LabAffiliate allow for members to be paid for getting people to sign up for a subscription on our network...?

    @shawneo

    LabAffiliate is designed for tracking and reporting on affiliate referrals from a Sub-site to a Master-site or vice versa.

    We have not created it to manage independent affiliate referrals (people who do not have a SocialGO site of their own), as these types of free programs are available online everywhere and you could easily use one of them for independent referrals.
