Taxi drivers, we are three years old!
Whew, these three years are an eternity for us, and at the same time - just a moment!
Not every project can live at least a year, let alone three!
We have not only existed for three years, we have managed to show what a real game with withdrawal of funds is!
In this post we would like to tell you a little about everything, and listen to your opinions!
About what has been achieved
Now Taxi-money has crossed an important line, which is called the test of time.
This test is the most valuable of all that can be.
We have not only existed for three years, we have been paying regularly for all these three years.
Now we can confidently say that we are absolutely the best project on the RuNet!
We have earned this title in three years, proving that Taxi-money is not just a stable, strong project, but also the most popular.
- The number of registered users is already 630 thousand.
- The active part of users is from 25 to 40 thousand users daily.
- There are 1500 people online on the site constantly, and in the evening this figure reaches 2000 people online.
Technical figures:
- More than 20 million requests to our servers per day
- The size of the databases exceeds 100 GB
- The project serves a total of 27 servers
- All project data is automatically duplicated on three physically remote servers: Russia, the USA and France
About popularity
Taxi-money is primarily a project about earnings. Here you can earn and communicate.
Usually, projects of this format do not have a large audience.
But here's the thing, our project has begun to catch up in popularity with other games that are exclusively "for fun", without the ability to earn money.
Look at the rating LiveInternet.ru - we are consistently in the top 20-30.
We have bypassed many online gaming projects, and are about to catch up with some.
This indicates great interest among different types of users, from young gamers to respected, wise people.
The project has users from different countries, primarily from the CIS countries: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Armenia, Georgia, Uzbekistan and other countries of the post-Soviet space.
The project is also loved by Western users: USA, Germany, Great Britain.
Eastern countries did not leave us without attention: China, Turkey, India, Vietnam, Japan.
Exotic countries that have fallen in love with Taxi-money: Indonesia, Bolivia, Mexico, Brazil...
The geography of our users is almost the entire planet. Let 90% of users be players from the CIS countries, but this is only our omission, because we do not have an English version, but even this is not a hindrance for thousands of users who successfully earn money without knowing Russian.
About the domain www.taxi-money.net
You have probably heard the phrase - everything that does not kill you - makes you stronger.
It is true.
Once our domain taxi-money.net was blocked
Thanks to a certain young lady for this, God bless her, she wrote a complaint to Roskomnadzor, and they found some kind of violation on our site and blocked it.
In 99% of cases, blocking a project like ours is a death sentence.
But we are not made of the same stuff and did not give up, but decided to find a solution to this problem.
Prompt measures were taken: we immediately created several new domains, set up redirects, set up automatic authorization from the old domain, notified everyone by mail, conveyed the information as quickly as possible so that no one would worry.
Thanks to these actions, we managed to prevent panic and various rumors, the project continued to work in normal mode.
But we didn't stop there.
An official request was filed and sent to Roskomnadzor demanding an explanation for the blocking.
We were pleasantly surprised by the reason for the blocking...
The reason turned out to be ridiculous - we held a lottery on the site without the appropriate registration with government agencies. For which we paid.
The lottery was immediately removed, along with all types of gambling (previously there was "Game with a passenger", "Who is more").
After some time, the blocking from the domain was lifted. Hooray!
But what did this give us?
We found ourselves in an extremely stressful situation and learned important experience.
That is why the site can be accessed through 10 domain names.
- Taxi-money.info
- Taxi-money.net
- Taxi-money.org
- Taxi-money.top
- Taxi-money.me
- Taxi-money.eu
- Taxi-money.be
- Taxi-money.in
- Taxi-money.us
- Money.taxi
On the old site, these addresses were on the main page, in a separate block.
But now there is no need for this. We no longer plan to break the law :)
About users' income
We are not some kind of pyramid, MMM, or anything like that - everything here is real.
Nobody promises millions in income per day, but we have the opportunity to earn real money, and what a chance!
Look at HALL OF FAME - these taxi drivers earn great money.
Don't believe it? Write to them and ask if you doubt it.
On the main page we recently started publishing the last 20 payments and the amount of funds paid out in 48 hours.
You can see at any time how much our users are withdrawing.
Sometimes you can hear the opinion that our statistics are "drawn".
They say that you can draw any numbers.
This is the pure truth, you can draw even a pink elephant in black.
But there is one nuance here, it is much easier for us to show the latest findings than to generate fake ones, simply because our developer resources are extremely limited.
If there was a desire, we would have hung up a big beautiful banner a long time ago: "Reserve project X rubles", but we do not do this deliberately.
We do not want to be associated with one-day projects that lure their users with drawn statistics.
About the difficulties overcome
What have we had to overcome in these three years?
- Countless problems in organizing the project, from ordinary errors to complete loss of the database (yes, this happened, but you didn't notice it, thanks to the techies with golden hands)
- The fight against bots is a whole epic that has no end.
We have developed several blocking mechanisms, one worse than the other.
Unfortunately, sometimes ordinary users suffer, and bots remain "invisible". A silver bullet has not yet been found, we continue to work on an anti-bot. - The problem of project growth, we have become so big that we had to host the project on 27 computers at once.
Yes, you heard right, the project works simultaneously on 27 servers. Some may "fall" or "freeze", then others will "pick up" the load, and the project will not go "down".
This cost us dearly, we reworked most of the project to make it possible. - The number of payments has become so large that sometimes several payments are generated in one second.
Payment systems limit the number of simultaneous transactions, and therefore sometimes payments fall into waiting.
We are already working on this.
We can talk about problems for a long time, but we do not like to talk about them.
We understood the main thing - a project is not a final destination, it is a process, the very essence of the project is its development.
Our project will exist not just for years, but for decades!
You can be sure of it.
And how was it?
In the distant, distant year of 2014, the current Taxi-money team dared to create their own project, considering the local market situation convenient for the launch of a new project.
In fact, the project was already operational on May 20, but the advertising campaign was not launched, and final adjustments were being made.
We opened on May 22.
But due to minor glitches on the first day of work, the official opening was postponed to May 23, and that was when the advertising campaign was launched.
It is this date, May 23, that our users know.
But we celebrate our birthday on May 22, the day we began accepting our first users.
Then Taxi-money met its users with minimal functionality, you could buy a car and make a profit, withdraw money.
There were no more functions on the site.
And this does not compare to what we have now!
Dozens and hundreds of functions/features/sections are available to our users.
About the future
For the sake of interest, you can read our old news, which said that we would soon become project #1, that we would become the best.
It happened.
We objectively understand that we are head and shoulders above most projects on the Internet. That is, we are not saying that we are just the best project on the Internet, we are saying that we do not know of any more profitable, more reliable and higher-quality projects.
If you know someone better, write in the comments, let's discuss :)
Now, we set ourselves a new goal - to become one of the projects that is on the lips of most Internet users.
We want the phrase "are you in a taxi?" to give an understanding of what kind of "taxi" we are talking about.
We hope that you, our deeply beloved and respected taxi drivers, will help!
Taxi driver bonuses
The taxi driver profile is temporarily not working, the reason for this is a tricky error that was discovered, which allowed one to receive a very big advantage.
The problem turned out to be non-technical, which could have been fixed in a day or two. The problem turned out to be in the system as a whole, and to avoid it, it will be necessary to make significant changes, which is what we are working on.
Congratulations to all taxi drivers on their third anniversary!
We wish you financial success, health and more bright days!
