Do not use Smowtion | They Are Some real clever guys

    Now, Everybody might think Smowtion is such a big Company then why this thread.

    I started Using Smowtion on my site for last 2 weeks. My Site Gets 1700 USA Visitors Daily. And 3000 More Visitors from UK.

    I Have Provided Smowtion with Over 491 Clicks with 50,000 pageviews. But still they Gave me mere 3$ for it...

    [​IMG]

    Now, they have made Enough money for themselves in these many pageviews and clicks. But they pay the publishers damn too less.

    Secondly, They have Kept the payout rate at 100$. so, that Experimenters Just come and Go. And they do not have to pay them.

    Whoa, I am Impressed by their money making technique.

    Well, I Hope people beware of this.

    Thanks.

    I agree, smowtion is like slow motion, very very low in earns even if you have high US, UK traffics

    thats why i'm still using adsense and no one gives like adsense, a decent value of earns

    Sounds like they pay publishers a mere few cents per click. At 491 clicks (that's a lot) you would have got more from adsense .. a whole lot more.

    thats an understatement, with 491 clicks that would mean (at the correct niche) 100x more than the earnings above.

    Agreed, stay away from Smowtion.

    I've used them recently and here is what i've noticed:

    1. Your daily earning status take forever to update.
    2. I get the feeling they don't count all impressions, i've compared both my Xtend media daily impressions to smowtions and theres A BIG difference.
    3. eCPM is just rubbish even for US hits.

    They take weeks to approve a new publisher so I gave up on even testing them.

    Most webmaster do not make a payout from such high minimum payout sites, as its not easy to reach $100 so why not go with sites which has low minimum payout, so you can get your money faster and if you do not like, you can take your money and leave, but if payout is such high, than you can't leave and stuck to reach $100

    I have been trying them for the past few days and they are rubbish. They only report 1% of actual page impressions so I am losing out on 90%. They will be deleted from my site tonight. Never again.

    I totally agree with you rohitink!

    I run their ads 1-2 day and here is my results:
    smowtion.png

    I have ~25 % my traffic from US and ~ 50 % from top European countries. Yes they said that it takes 2 weeks to optimize ads on site, but sounds really low if you run this 2 weeks and get $15 from 250.000 views and 3000+ clicks...they have nice partners and network, but I think they are too greedy... :(

    ~400k pageviews and only $25 bucks. I guess my CPM is better than some $0.07 cents.

    I didn't even bother to continue using them to make the $100 to cash out.
