Relevant product selling is indeed a monetization strategy that I have not seen any of the popular social networks use. For that matter, most household names in social networking are horizontal and cannot do relevant product selling. Thanks for the comment 'Get your ears out' and good luck on the venture.

You can talk in broad strokes about "premium features or content" but you have to consider how horizontal communities will (supposedly) evolve into more vertical communities that focus on specific interests. We're hoping to grow a community around live music initially in the UK but there is no reason why we can't expand that if we get the basics right. We are going to include our first users in the evolution of our site & experience and use affiliate product/services as part of that experience to generate income when appropriate and volume dictates - tickets, music downloads, merchandise etc are all relevant to a real music fan...

Unlike most other businesses, money making is not part of the social network's operation (unless it is a LinkedIn or Classmates offering premium features). So, if a money making strategy has to be otherwise induced, it has to come at the cost of user experience.. There lies the problem Zeesu.
