Isn't 360 free? So what does it make money from?
360 is free, and many 360 supporters are worried about it. How can 360 develop without fixed income? How can we carry this free lunch through to the end? How can I make this free lunch the most delicious? In fact, although 360 is free for users, it also has considerable income. It is with these incomes that 360 can make money and continue to be free. Let's start with a few common ones: 1. Advertising is free, and people like it, and poor middle peasants like it (although the technology is worse than other manufacturers). Naturally, some companies will cooperate with 360 and rely on 360' s popularity to advertise to those companies. However, 360 Company is unwilling to do so. As a security software, it is a bodyguard and a guard. It takes care of your home every day, and it will send you small advertisements if it's okay, which may be stale. So that's why we seldom see 360 advertisements. But there are, few! 2. Users download software through "360 Software Manager", and 360 can profit from it. At present, the download price of free software is about 0. 1 yuan per download to 0.5 yuan, and the commission of paid software download websites is even as high as tens of yuan, and the commission of large commercial software is not capped. It is reported that the annual income of a large software download website can even reach 10 million yuan. 360 is now estimated to achieve tens of millions of benefits. 3.360 browser 360 home page, such as the search engine of 360 home page, if you enter an item from this page, users can get corresponding profits every time they click on 360 company. The home page also has a link to the corresponding website, and the linked company pays 360 fees. However, the above three aspects are not the main benefits of 360. The main benefits of 360 are as follows: 1. Selling other antivirus software 360 sold antivirus software to some antivirus software companies when it launched 360 antivirus. According to some data, at that time, the annual income of 360 selling anti-virus software was about 6000W, but 360 launched 360 anti-virus, which was equivalent to building a palace for itself, hehe, but that's all. 2. One of the value-added services is secure storage. You can have something very personal. If you are afraid of losing photos and materials at home, you can save them at 360. If 1% people may be willing to buy it, 99% people think that antivirus is enough for me. Well, 1% people may have 3 million people here, and there will be an average user collection every month. Another service is to do this one-on-one remote maintenance for real people. For example, if you are a computer expert, you may have installed 360, and all your problems can be solved. But after all, there are still many white users, and there are many middle-aged and elderly people. For example, if they don't know computers, they will install security software for them. Sometimes he will encounter some problems, but he still can't handle them. In this case, the 360 technician can connect to his computer remotely to help him solve the problem. This is also a pretty big cake. 3. Dissolve the capital. Investment provided by the rich and capital groups. This makes people worry, because many of them are funded by some American companies, so be careful about the network security of the motherland! To sum up, 360 is not free, but also profitable. But the main problem is that it does not require ordinary users to charge, but provides users with the best free service. Moreover, this kind of service is unfair, because the services provided for antivirus are equal, and the value-added services have not harmed the interests of ordinary users. Unlike some companies, charging gives users privileges and makes users who don't pay feel wronged. From the above, 360 earns money aboveboard. What is aboveboard? It is to provide better services for ordinary supporters with the money earned without sacrificing the interests of ordinary users. I believe many netizens have experienced this. Unlike some companies, if you pay, give you different treatment and give you a prop, you can bully others with it. So I am very optimistic about 360, I hope you will develop better!
