    so if its the weekend where you live dont be alarmed.

    I dont know if this has been said, but I suggest you remove WB or AdSense, since its against Google TOS to have both on the same page.

    It\'s against Google ToS to have both Widgetbucks ad and Adsense together? I thought it\'s compatible. Did google just update their ToS that I am unaware of?

    I had thought adsense allows all other ads as long as they dont look like adsense. Also when I was on the phone with the guy from mpire he never said anything about it. So im 99.995 sure its allowed.

    Unrelated note: does anyone have a proxy that works 100% with facebook, if so pm me.

    well i know why your smart priced, traffic from iran will get you smart priced very fast. I just realized that. You need good US / UK / Europe traffic for proxies to stay unsmart priced. I think this is where newsletters fail. Your traffic comes from IRAN and its like 90% of it so to adsense those visitors bring down the value of there clicks because it would be so hard to convert anything.

    My new proxy had 4K uniques today >.>, not really a lowsy weekend & Surf & Seek was up a little higher than usual. Im considering blocking traffic from Iran on Surf & Seek because I don't want to get smart-priced. I already block China, horrible source. Maybe I will redirect them to a different proxy. I feel good though otherwise, I managed to pull in high $ worth of revenue ^^.

    How do you block traffic from certain countries? Is it possible to redirect them?

    Well this was up yesterday.. it's down today.. weird.
    http://www.blockacountry.com/

    But they use nothing more than a list (I can't remember the name of the list) that has the IP assignments to each country & that's what I use in an .htaccess file.

    You can use Bivdertiser on proxied pages from what I know. Another alternative is banners from Canep Media
