It's about status, value, and most importantly - involvement.
Our mission is to unite people. We strongly believe that through the power of collaboration we can make the world better. We'll be doing our best to raise the quality of material available on Unity and to remain an independent website that serves the community. Unity provides an opportunity to find help, share information and make money. We run this site primarily as a "Contributionware" platform, so we rely on people subscribing as "Premium Members".

Why would you want to subscribe?

1. What you learn here has real value and you would like to help fund the costs that are associated with running the site and making it more popular and far more useful for all.
2. If you gain something from what you read or receive here then maybe it might just be worth giving something back, even if only from the selfish viewpoint of keeping the whole thing going!
3. You get access to the private Premium Members' forums. They are made up of some of the best professionals sharing information on community software and effectively helping each other on a regular basis.
4. Your profile is marked as a "Premium" profile, which effectively improves the willingness of other members to help you whenever possible.
5. You can save by being Premium, thanks to significant discounts for Premium Members, voluntarily provided by other members selling their products through the "Extensions" system.
6. You can make use of occasional special offers provided via Unity "Specials" system. Very often these offers alone can be valued many times more than a nominal Premium status fee.
7. As a Premium you are able to order an ads box here at Unity and promote your products and services.
8. By purchasing Premium status, you are on your way to beginning a great career here as a professional expert or BoonEx pundit. You won't be a standard member anymore, even if it expires.
9. By contributing to Unity, the Community of Communities, you help us in the Unite People mission. Join us, and help us build a compassionate, humane and caring community.
10. Purchasing a Premium star (point) allows you to become a part of the big Unite People movement, and we acknowledge you as part of our effort.
