Hi, I want to advertise my programs. I need a suggestion or a list of decent sites for promotion, that are open for shareware. I will also pay somebody to manage it. Thanks for any help.
There is no mention of "shareware" on his site, so I need to ask. Besides, I'd rather not make assumptions.
Hm I see only shareware progs there lol He got a free version (trial) and an option to buy the full version: http://www.hotbounce.com/
I already offer 50% with (program specific) affiliation via a ref link here: http://www.hotbounce.com/affiliate.php And I want to try some PPC advertisement also...
I've never defined shareware to be a "trial". Some may, I don't. I also said I don't want to make assumptions, so let him answer my question. IMO, facebook may have not liked the software cause I've seen tons of ads on FB for software that had trials.
The reason facebook gave me for not accepting my advertisement about my site was, that they cannot guarantee safety to facebook users who may install my software. They don't gave me a very specific reason. So, I presume they have a certain criteria about shareware even when tested on relevant sites like Softpedia.
That's true about all software. So they didn't even mention "shareware"? What you may want to do is create a separate landing page without all the "free" verbiage and just use "30 day trial". You may also want to get a better website design, that may give you some credibility.
