Who each one suits
AdFoc.us
Visitors you earn fromEvery counted visit
Free mods, maps, packs and tools
Files that many people download
Creators who would rather not ask for money
Donations
Visitors you earn fromThe few who give
Creators with a close following
Projects people already want to back
Anyone, on top of either kind of link
Use two at once
Give your supporters the plain link. Everyone else sees one ad.
A perk worth giving
Supporters go straight to the file.
Two kinds of income
What AdFoc.us pays sits on top of what supporters give.
One file, two links
Both lead to the same file, so there is nothing extra to host.
