Essentially, it is a hosted platform for you to blog on, similar to WordPress.com or Hubpages.com. It fact it uses WordPress Multi User on the backend.
A basic membership to the Empower Network gets you access to the viral blogging platform and it will cost you $25 a month. if anyone signs up via your link, you get 100% commissions, sent instantly and directly to your bank account.

Compensation plan – Uni Level
Empower Network operates on a principle called direct pay where your customers who fall on qualifying 100% commissions, actually make payments to you directly.
Commissions are generated from the sale of the Empower marketing systems, education, and training tools that serve the Network Marketing, Direct Sales, and Affliate Marketing industry. Commissions are only generated by selling products, and customers can choose optionally whether or not they want to activate their affliate account. Each product has its own affliate compensation plan, which is not tied to any of the other products.
All products operate on a dynamic powerline system, where the 2nd, 4th, 6th and every 5th sale of every affliate pass to the qualifying sponsor, and you keep 100% of the purchase and ongoing price on all other personal sales on products you qualify for.
Both founders, David Wood and David Sharpe are top recruiters in their own company. As they pay 100% commissions is seems to be for the founders the way to make a living, which is not a bad idea. (Maybe more Direct Selling companies should work like this…)
To understand the passup compensation plan: In below graphic John will get paid over 8 distributors (The yellow dots). 2 payments will go to John's upline. 10 payments go to the group below John.
