    Does anyone do any Adware Arbitrage? Like with zango, etc? I was thinking of running some offers - clicks are dirt cheap but users usually close the popup.

    I ran some tests, here are my results (traffic quality):

    Notice how short people stay on these sites, most are used to closing the popups they constantly get.

    Pop ups are annoying and pop ups full of ads are disgusting. I will not go for this kind of traffic. They are useless, I think.

    ... There wouldn't be adware companies if it didn't make advertisers money. It has to work.

    The only thing I can imagine that would work is cookie stuffing ;p

    There definitely is money to be made with ppv. As in everything the only way to make it work is research then testing, testing, testing, then more research. I use adware to capture emails and market later. This seems to work really well.
