 <p>"One question: why did you choose the quite unknown Spanish crowdfunding site Goteo?" So shot back the reply to the <a href="http://blog.gnupg.org/20131219-gnupg-launches-crowfunding.html" target="blank">press release</a> I had just sent to a few dozen selected journalists announcing the launch of the GnuPG crowdfunding campaign. "You won't get any exposure on there, we got a few hundred thousand hits just from being on indiegogo" I was told by one experienced crowdfunder at my favourite <a href="http://www.c-base.org/" target="blank" rel="nofollow">Berlin hackerspace</a> last month. "What's Goteo?" has been one of the most frequently asked questions of this campaign from friends and supporters.</p>
 
-<p>I ummed and ahhed over which crowfunding platform to choose. It's a decision that has a huge impact on the campaign - market exposure, transaction costs, and design and layout are just a few of the many factors that have to be taken into account. This is a crowded market - new crowdfunding sites are popping up each week as more companies try to cash in on what has is recognised a key <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013/dec/23/tech-128-from-airbnb-to-crowdfunding-the-year-in-review" target="blank" rel="nofollow">tech trend of 2013</a>. An <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2013/dec/23/crowdfunding-limitations" target="blank" rel="nofollow">estimated $5bn</a> was raised by crowdfunders this year. That equates to around $35m in commission fees for the platforms hosting these campaigns, who typically charge between <a href="http://www.indiegogo.com/indiegogo-faq" title="indiegogo's commission charges" target="blank" rel="nofollow">5</a>-<a href="http://goteo.org/faq/sponsor#q98" title="Goteo's commission Charges" target="blank">10%</a>. It's no surprise that everyone wants a slice.</p>
