What is the FlareNetwork?

The FlareNetwork is a decentralized network of websites designed to promote authentic, human-made content. We don't use algorithms to promote content, nor do we accept money to push content to the top of results.

My biggest goal is to encourage real human interaction. That means we work hard to keep bots off the network. While anyone can view content for free, interacting with it requires a yearly account that costs $11.98. This helps us ensure that creators are connecting with a genuine human audience, not inflated, fake accounts.

This structure creates a network where every publisher has an equal opportunity to be discovered. Flaresites are designed to be your central hub on the internet, directing users to your ecosystem, not big tech's walled gardens.

About the FlareNetwork

Hi! My name is Bijan Fandey, founder of Fandey Tech. I've been using the internet my entire life. I've seen good, bad, ugly and illegal content on the internet throughout my life. The internet is an extraordinary tool, it connects the entire world together and allows for easy access to information... at least it used to. The internet's original promise was easy access to information and global connection; FlareNetwork is my effort to reclaim that promise.

How the FlareNetwork Works

Everyone is on an equal playing field when it comes to search and discovery. This system is designed to reward content that is thoughtful, valuable, and high-quality, with its value determined directly by end-users.

Users interact with content via the network's points system, called Ember. By contributing Ember to a piece of content, users signal its value to the rest of the network, boosting its visibility. Ember cannot be purchased.

Each user receives a 24 Ember to distribute daily. This scarcity encourages thoughtful consumption and ensures that only the most genuinely valued content rises to the top. Content that receives the most Ember within a 24-hour period is featured on the FlareFinder.net homepage as a Wildfire. Ember refreshes 24 hours after you contribute it.

What is EmberForgery

EmberForgery is a content management system and website builder and it's where all the content on the network gets built. It offers a wide range of tools to not just build a website, but to build a sustainable online ecosystem that you own.

Content can be anything. Blogs, videos, images. I'm also creating custom content types for interactive experiences for creators to engage their audiences.

Why I Made the FlareNetwork

There are three primary reasons I was inspired to create the FlareNetwork

Reason 1: Platforms Just Suck

In recent years, the user experience on major platforms has been deliberately degraded. While feeds become less enjoyable, the restrictions on what creators can share have simultaneously increased.

Modern social media platforms rely on manipulative design to maximize engagement at any cost. Content feeds are saturated with ads, making genuine discovery difficult. This system conditions users to passively accept algorithm-driven content instead of actively exploring their own interests. These platforms make your choices are limited, and your feed is no longer truly your own.

These platforms were not designed with the user's well-being as a priority. Especially with the introduction of AI generated content, these platforms have no incentives to support their creators. If AI generated content keeps user retention high, they will go all in on it.

Reason 2: Small Businesses Struggle to be Discovered

The current search functionality the modern internet has is pay-to-win. This leaves small businesses in a difficult position as they have to allocate more and more money to ad-revenue just to be shown in the search results that should have shown their business in the first place.

Reason 3: Sex Work is Real Work

I don't advertise Goonphoria.com as much (for obvious reasons), but it's our adult network search engine. It's exactly like FlareFinder.net, but for adult content.

Adult content can be a tricky thing to navigate, especially as a website host. You have to care for and monitor a ton of different things, keep up with different legislation in each state, use a high risk merchant account just to sell products (which increases transaction fees substantially), obey the rules of payment processors and credit card providers.

I can help solve a lot of these problems, but not all. I can't make MasterCard or Visa change their rules, but I can simplify the process for everything else.

EmberForgery implements everything you need to run an adult website, without any hassels. Because you are considered the host, you become responsible for the content you are uploading. This provides you with significantly more power in what happens to your content. With EmberForgery you don't have to worry about companies randomly removing your content. If your content needs to be removed (this should only happen due to legal reasons), they will have to contact you to do so, or they will contact us and we will direct them to you.

To be clear, FlareFinder.net and Goonphoria.com are monitored for illegal content. If you host illegal content, your account will be banned and your server deleted.

How is this Decentral?

A fair question is how the network can be decentralized if a single entity is involved.

The FlareNetwork is not a monolithic social platform that hosts your content. Instead, you create your own independent Flaresite. While we provide the service of managing the technical backend and hosting for you, you retain complete ownership of your content and set your own rules.

This model gives you the freedom and control of owning your own website without the technical overhead, all while being discoverable within a network that values quality over clicks.

Our long-term vision is to introduce physical hardware, allowing users to run and self-host their own Flaresites. This will create a truly independent and decentralized network infrastructure.

Join the FlareNetwork

The best way to start enjoying the FlareNetwork is by creating a Flaresite with EmberForgery.com or by purchasing an account.

FlareNetwork Accounts Outside of the Network

FlareNetwork accounts are super powerful, and we try our best our best to create a worthwhile experiences and features to encourage you to purchase one, but we also know there's a whole lot of internet out there. Another goal I have is to allow third-parties to leverage our account system so you can use traditional platforms while keeping your data completely safe and private.

Think of "login with..." buttons. Normally these share limited amounts of personal data. With FlareNetwork accounts, we plan on only sharing 2 bits of data: User ID and Verification Status. User IDs are a random string of letters and numbers that look like this "a4341d44-4872-49a7-aec9-472a49ab88b9," meaning platforms that accept our accounts to login with, will only be able to track you based on this string, not your email or name.

"We/Our/I/My" ???

Right now, it's just me, Bijan Fandey. Hopefully, I can find like-minded people to work with me and grow this business into something beautiful. But first, I need to make come profit for a sustainable business, consider purchasing a FlareNetwork account!
