Hey. Matt here, founder of ProveWorth.
I believe in being straightforward about how this site makes money, so here it is.
Some of the links on ProveWorth are affiliate links. When you click a "Join Group" or "Join Community" button and end up joining that community, the platform hosting it may pay us a referral fee. You don't pay anything extra. The community's pricing is the same whether you come through our link or navigate there directly.
That referral income is part of what keeps ProveWorth free for reviewers and free for community owners to claim their page. We're a real business (Digital Gravity LLC), and affiliate commissions are one of the ways we keep the lights on.
We also add tracking parameters to outbound links (like UTM source tags) so that community owners can see where their traffic is coming from in their own analytics. If you run a community and you're seeing "ProveWorth" show up in your traffic sources, that's why. It helps builders understand how their ProveWorth profile is actually driving results for them.
Here's the part that actually matters: the affiliate relationship has zero influence on how communities rank, which reviews get published, or who gets listed. Rankings come from member reviews. Communities that earn us a commission sit right next to communities that don't, and the reviews treat them exactly the same.
I only partner with platforms I actually believe in. If a hosting platform doesn't deliver a good experience for the builders and members using it, the reviews reflect that regardless of what they'd pay us.
Every affiliate link on the site has a small "Affiliate link" label right next to it, so you always know which links are which. No buried footnotes, no surprises.
If you'd rather skip the affiliate link entirely, you can navigate to any community directly on its host platform. We earn from click-throughs, so going direct means we don't get compensated. Totally your call.
I haven't received any free products, memberships, or special treatment from any platform in exchange for listing or featuring communities on ProveWorth. The only compensation is the affiliate commission.
If any of this is unclear or you have questions, reach out through our contact page. Happy to explain anything.
Cheers,
Matt
