Too bad PayPal is down and that's the only option for payment http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=370588
Ruby my only concern is that the ad I want to purchase can only start tomorrow. And if PayPal doesn't get their act together will I miss the opportunity or I can still complete the payment tomorrow?
Actually the ad you are booking there can start immediately.... the time on AdToll is based on Australian WST so its 2:30pm on the 19th of June.
Thank you, Ruby! I am impressed so far and I think your service is going to grow and prosper. As an advertiser I have to ask the million dollar question... How do you protect from invalid clicks? I know it's impossible to compete with Google on that end but at the same time they are getting very greedy and rude. You will easily be able to recruit all the Google drop outs. Do you have systems in place such as not counting multiple clicks from same IP, ignoring clicks that come from proxy sites, etc? For the most part this does not affect me much since I tend to buy direct ads at flat rate. But I may be willing to experiment with the network ads as well if the results are good. Thanks in advance!
Thats a very good question and while I would LOVE to tell everyone the details its probably not the best thing to do, for obvious reasons. I will say our click fraud strategy is VERY aggressive and we do have frequency capping, anonymous proxy/IP banning etc... I actually think you will be pleasantly surprised with our click fraud strategy. Let me also add that AdToll is not a premade kiddy script we bought for $400. AdToll is the result of literally years of experience we have had in online advertising and 9 months worth of research, design, development and testing to get to where we are today. This is a business and our focus is our customers and ensuring both Publishers and Advertisers mutually benefit.
I have applied for weekly links.. But I can see ads on my site from now.. Are they CPC ads ? How can i remove them ? I want only fixed priced ads to be shown.
Well thats really in your control... it is also your responsibility to reel in advertisers to your site and you can use your rate card to provide ample information and a sales pitch to entice people to advertise.
Yes they are network CPC based ads which we provide when your ad pool isn't full. It just helps you earn and also provides statistics which are used for your rate cards etc.. to entice advertisers. At this present time the only way to make your ad groups not show RON ads is to fill your ad pool.
Excellent, welcome aboard. Keep in mind you will only be successful if you put in the effort. How you ask? Provide accurate information on your site and the ad groups including restrictions and your sales pitch as to why someone would advertise. Set realistic prices. Start low to fill your ad inventory and increase it as demand increases. This helps the market determine the price and means you are actually making money! Have the "advertise here" links on your ad groups to encourage your site visitors to view your rate card and book ads. Use your rate card! That means letting your customers know about it, let your members know etc... you'd be surprised as to who may want to book an ad. Build your sites traffic to increase ad views and potentially clicks. The more clicks your ads are getting the more enticing they look to advertisers! This is a short list but you get the idea. Like anything, you the publisher, has the power to be successful. If you just sit there and do nothing and expect things to happen and to make a fortune you will be sadly dissapointed. Like anything in life, put in the effort and you will be rewarded.
Hi, I would like to try Adtoll, but I am just a little bit reluctant since I am interested in better profits. What if I don't get my ad pool filled? what is the earnings potential? In other words, how much should I expect from every click? Thanks
As we have explained you get 75% commision. In the event your ad pool is not full we pad it with network ads of which you make 75% comimssion on what the advertiser paid for the click.
Yeah I joined with ringtoneswapperz went through the sign up and inserted ads without member confirmation will this track OK ? The ads look very nice and I need to make some money to run the site. Cheers
Yes your site has been approved and is listed in the Site Directory. You can find your rate card at http://www.adtoll.com/rate_card.php?sid=98 Some advice... 1) Leave the "advertise here" link on the banner - it helps reel in prospective advertisers. 2) Don't expect miracles with the banner placed so far down the page and grouped with a whole lot of other banners. Good luck if there is anything I can do to help let me know.
I know there's a few ads on but not too many really and they are sorted pretty nicely I think. Do I have to reinsert ad code as I have only two ads showing I think the selection unticked when I signed up not sure and for the advertise here?
If you don't have sponsored ad bookings we provide you with RON ads relevant to your industy restrictions. You might only find a couple of RON ads running on your site, that's simply due to volume. If and when more RONs are booked that suit your site they will automatically be fed through. You never have to reinsert the code again unless you want to change the way your ad group looks.
