Been a paid user of elink.io for quite some time - can't remember how long but at least 2 years, closer to 3. I have always been a very satisfied customer. If you are looking to micro-curate content catering for a small niche market, there is NOTHING better out there. The latest site revision a couple of months ago added two new features that are hugely useful: one, you can now re-use content from the Link Library, which is great if a news item is of ongoing interest to customers, and two, you can now re-use the same custom template every week and just click to delete the old content and add new content from the Link Library. The one thing they did in this new version that I *hate* is that they force paid subscribers to have a redirect on their website directing people to "View Original" on elink.io. To my way of thinking, that should only exist for free accounts, not paid ones. Still, that's fixable if you know what you're doing and are comfortable editing embed codes. One can only hope that elink.io survives the coming end cycle of Adobe Flash, because it's still the very best solution out there for what I do.

I paid for a premium account for my microbusiness after Kizoa (my preferred service) went off line. Made one video. 8 *hours* later the whole site went offline and stayed offline for a whole week. As of this writing, it is back online, but I am not sure I wish to hitch my business' wagon to such an unreliable star... It does what I need it to, sort of, hence 2 stars, but if it can't do so reliably then I'm not interested.

I use Kizoa on a weekly basis for my microbusinesses. It is a reliable product at a reasonable price with excellent customer service. I have a lifetime subscription for my business... but... here's the problem: Kizoa is Flash-based, it has been down for several weeks, and we all know Flash is going away next year. What we need to be looking for is companies that can do the same thing with HTML5. I haven't found any yet. I certainly do hope Kizoa is able to get back online, because of all the options I tried while it was down, it's still by far the best - when it works! FWIW per Mike's review I was able to access my account via kizoa.it and make a video, so thanks for that, Mike!
