    I just found an ad for Microsoft adCenter in this month's issue of Inc. Magazine. The ad says:
    Is that a crazy claim? Is it honest?

    I know I have not seen that type of conversion...lol. I wonder what they consider "purchased". That could be spun.

    I don't know about that percentage, but I do know MSN has the best converting traffic I have seen.

    Eh, never believe advertising numbers. Try it for yourself and see. First hand experience is worth a couple of bucks.

    Well i can almost most believe this.

    Wirefly and true (online dating) are two of the most popular ads. That i personly see.

    I would think lots of people have bought true memberships and i know alot of people use wirefly. I can believe this very much so, but you also have to consider 90% of computer users use it for buying and selling in some form.
