@andrewwarner Thanks for joining and thanks for reaching out. We'll have some more information coming out soon that talks about the site in more detail. I'll let you know when it's available. Thanks!
@andrewwarner Thanks for reaching out Andrew! To follow up on Micah, we wanted to put together a database of top influencers categorized by industry, but we also wanted to make it fun and add a "cryptokitties" element to it.
Once all the spots are filled, the next step on our road-map is to add a marketplace where people can buy and sell their spots. Because there is only a finite number of slots (100 per category), we believe the value of each spot will appreciate significantly!

"Check me out, I'm listed on this site as a top influencer!"
"Cool; who recommended you?"
"...me."
"OK, so it was an application type thing and they checked you out and awarded you this?"
"...well, not exactly. I paid $1 more than the other guy."
"Oh, well then, congratulations are in order."
What can be a social media influencer selling price in the future if I buy it now? How to determine that? Is it dependent on the platform's success? Also does this work in India? Looks interesting!
@sagar868 Hey Sagar, the future price will be whatever someone is willing to pay for it. Because there is only a finite number of spots, it could very well be substantially more than you paid for it.
We use Stripe to process transactions, so you shouldn't have any issues using it in India :)

@daviswbaer I paid $1 but couldn't sign up! Please help.
@mikerowan This I agree with. Self-vetting via payment is the same way of selling ad space, not picking awards. Individuals with the most to gain financially will buy these slots, not the people who actually deserve them...
@mikerowan@nickabouzeid Thanks for the feedback Mike and Nick, we'll be working on more ways for true influencers to rise up and get more exposure over time. p.s. SendGrid is so great, had zero problems every time I have worked with it!
Hello Product Hunt!
Thanks for checking out First 100 Influencers. We built it to showcase the top 100 influencers in each industry.
We decided to charge for it because A) we like money, and B) it provides some measure of screening so the quality remains high.
The first spot in every category costs $1, and the price increases by $1 for every profile listed, all the way up to $100.
BONUS: Once all the spots are full, the plan is to let you sell your spot on an open market and make some cash from the sale.

@daviswbaer What are your measures of screening so quality remains high? Also, letting users sell their spot to the highest bidder contradicts your quality measurement statement. Be honest, it's not much more than a quick cash grab!
Today we are launching a new feature called "Top 100", it's a list of the top viewed profiles, did you make the list? https://www.first100influencers.... #influencers #top100 #marketing #Announcement
