Wait a minute, Someone from Yahoo "YahooSarah" has been watching this and just now comments?? When I called today the person on the phone first acted like "I don't think there is a problem" .. I then went Come on lady tell the damn truth every publisher in the US is screaming right now.. She then went offline and came back and said yes the engineers are aware of the problem and are working towards resolution.. I have made 2.56 today.. Last month I was clearing 50.00 plus a day.. Sarah if you read this can someone PLEASE Comment to us what the hell is going on?? I was just in the process of dumping you guys .. Halfway done.. What is the status and Why don't you put a forum up on your site so we can communicate with you?? Only makes sense as we are a part of the Yahoo Team as well but are being treated like trash.. Just a bit perterbed.. Darrell
Sorry bout that.. in this thread.. YahooSarah who works for yahoo commented on the problems with Yahoo publishing program since the 1st of the month.. Thread: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=400621 Sorry bout that.. ;-) Darrell
I know, I recieved a Email from them today though about the problem, they hope to have it fixed by the end of the week, we shall see.. All the while Rome is burning.. Darrell
LOL! Rome is really burning. It was 102°F with 90% humidity yesterday. Just a little off topic, but honestly there isn't much to say about YPN performances lately.
ads look ok to me - but my stats are stuck at 8:45. i have the feeling revenue will still be down. fyi: i spoke with YPN several times yesterday, including a 'higher up' who told me that this issue was a malfuntion in their server maintainence. i expressed my concerns over lost revenue, no ads etc. I suggested they compensate publisher (don't hold your breath) and I also expressed my dismay at how long this went on and how there was no communication until everyone had already freaked out. it is ashame the way things are going as when YPN started they were a great alternative to google - we will see if they value their publishers or not from the way they handle the lost revenue issue. one would think with Terry Semel ousted, their stock way down, that they would be kissing their publishers asses as we actually put cash in their bank account... what do you think?
So has Sarah Shown up yet?? SARRRAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!! What? It would be nice if someone from yahoo stuck their nose in here to give us the piece of mind to voice our issues.. I realize this is not yahoo's forum "Hint Hint" Maybe we could have a support forum for publishers? PW protected and such? Just a idea... Darrell
Trying to get improvement with anything YPN does is like trying to squeeze blood from a stone. It may happen, but it's gonna be a looooooooooooooooooong wait, and even then, it's doubtful.
Sarah are you around? I wanted to actually give a compliment, don't know what happend, but the targeting is working better and my revenue is back up. Pre-meltdown. I just wish you guys (and Gals I take it!) would let "US" your YAHOO TEAM ASSOCIATES, help you out. I realize you control the purse strings etc, but to make this thing work and help Yahoo out you should receive input from us as well. Hope to hear from someone @ Yahoo/YPN. Darrel Da-Chief Crone P.s I will leave a plate with Cookies and milk to try to accomodate you.
Haha, that's what I love about the internet... You people are everywhere! I remember a long time ago I posted something about toilets flushing backwards in austrailia (I saw it on the simpsons...) and a guy from austrailia responded within minutes...
Lucky you! Still suck bad time here....: 1300 impressions on pages where i still show YPN = 2 clicks = few cents
we now have YahooSarah and YahooPete... does anyone know if we have anyone from Google on the forums...I think even Joel Comm and Aaron Wall have accounts here
Oh yes, it is!!! He just hasn't dared post in over a year, though he is watching us!!!! Last Activity: Apr 1st 2007 9:02 pm Rumor has it, he's spying on the link sales section banning people that sell/rent out links!!!!! There is also AdSenseAdvisor.
