What does everyone think? I've been an AuctionAds user for about three months now and I'm averaging a little over $400 a month. My biggest problem is that there is no way to see the actual numbers on what is being purchased, like CJ. Also, Auctionads does not show if a user has received a new sign-up or not. Its pretty hard to believe after three months that I haven't received one sign-up. I opened up a BANS store last week and have already seen two sign-ups in this time period. That's $50 which I've never seen in one day with AuctionAds. It really makes me wonder. What do you AuctionAd users think?
Auctionads is for international traffic. It's ShoppingAds that is US only. I threw them back up for the Christmas season as their server issues seems to be fixed. I'll let you know in a month if I think they're tracking correctly but that was a concern of mine too when I removed them. We'll see...
waiting for payment. Based on my experience I do believe they are cheating on the publisher. I was not an e-bay user (rare eh?), i made like $30 the month they upped their minimum payment to $50. I wanted to get the $ out and then leave it forever asap because it is definitely not doing any good. The earning were cool before the company switched hands. It used to make $150+ a month. But as many pointed out those might be made-up # by shoemoney to sell the company for higher profit anyway. Or the new owner lowered the # to cheat publishers. So continue with my story. I decided sign up myself an e-bay account and buy something from my friend's e-bay shop (So i don't have to receive any junk on the mail ...). Then I wait and wait for that $25 new signup to credit to my auctionads account (in order to meet the minimum $50). It only showed up $15, I waited a week ... and that was the only $15 made. It says here: http://affiliates.ebay.com/?_trksid=p3907.m36 "Earn $25 to $35 for every new active user you send to eBay." and in the AA FAQ it says: "AuctionAds is committed to paying out a minimum of 100% of eBay commission revenue." 15 / 25 is more like 60%
Sounds like the new owners have changed the rules but haven't told anyone. It AuctionAds are collectively on the higher tier rating, then doesn't that mean, $15 goes to site owner, $20 to AA?
response about payments: "PayPal is having an issue with their mass payment functionality so payments have not been made yet. We hope for PayPal for resolve the issues as soon as possible and be able to make payment within the next 24 hours. But it all depends on whether or not PayPal can correct the issue they are having. Sorry and thank you for understanding."
If Paypal can "correct the issue they are having" will lots of people get mystery cash added to their accounts?
I wrote AA some time ago asking them if they had plans to show new sign-ups as a separte item and they responded by saying they have no plans. What do you think this tells you???? That they don't want to show how much they are skimming off of the top.
You guys crack me up, I've never had a problem getting paid from AA at all. I blew off the delay in pay being it was the WEEKEND and guess what - first thing this morning I was paid my nice hefty AA income. Thanks AuctionAds!
