You are probably blocking cookies, which, in fact, is exactly how Steve will make money from this agloco site. If you click on the link embeded within his site, it sets a cookie in your browser cache which the agloco server reads in order to know from whom the referral came.
If you don't click on the link from Steve's site, then manually enter the agloco URL into your browser and join, Steve doesn't get a dime from your connection because there is, in essence, no referral.
By the way, if you're disturbed by the number of ads on any given site, use Firefox as your web browser with the AdBlock plugin. I see no ads on Steve's (or any other) site during my daily browsing.
Also, be aware that with these types of "services" from the likes of agloco, you are essentially selling them your privacy. You give them your e-mail and allow them to set cookies in your browser, and with their "toolbar" they now have access to your browser cache. This means they basically track your every web-based move and sell that data to their "partners".
Steve asked "Who wouldn't want to be part of this?" Well, me. I value what little privacy I have left in this world.
