I recnetly joined the co op network 1 week ago. The first site I signed up looks like this: First Site Base: 1,080 Consolidation: 0 Referrals: 8,368 Your Weight: 9,448 The second, third and forth look like this: Second Site Base: 26,395 Consolidation: 0 Referrals: 0 Your Weight: 26,395 Third Site Base: 6,710 Consolidation: 0 Referrals: 0 Your Weight: 6,710 Forth Site Base: 172 Consolidation: 0 Referrals: 0 Your Weight: 172 Fifth Site Base: 50,400 Consolidation: 0 Referrals: 0 Your Weight: 50,400 My question is quite simple. Why are the second, third and forth not showing any referals? Does this mean my ads are not yet running on other sites in the network? I have been running ads on all these site for about 1 week now Can someone please let me know what's up? Thnaks, John
Referrals: 8,368 for your first site means that somebody registered to your coop by your refid link and you basicaly got weight bonus from his weight. Check 'referrals' list on your coop panel to see who you got there.
If you add up the wieght from your site 2 - 5 and take 10 percent of that, you probably get 8,368. My guess would be that you used your referral id to register those sites and that that's how you got your bonus on your first site.
The referral score has nothing to do with your ad appearing on the network. It is a bonus you get when you refer other people to the network. If you have created ads and enabled them, your ads should be appearing on the network.
I am getting in the groove now. Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated. Now that I understand the game, what is the final ruling on selling weight? Or what format/ style of advertising (text, banners, etc.) will best optimize your results? If I am allowed to sell weight I would like to suggest in this ongoing debate that we are allowed to sell weight but the first $250 goes to DP for the new server...just a thought. I am also curious to know where/ how I can advertise the affiliate code for the network. I like the weight bonus . Can I run a text ad for AT 'free text links' or is that a no, no? I still have more 'good' content, non spam, theme based sites I would like to get in the program, but I think I'll hang tight for a bit to see what happens. Keep up the great work guys, if I can help in any way let me know.
personally i'm against selling weight a lot of people are running such ads. I also did and got my link approved so i guess it's ok.
