I've been buying & selling traffic with adengage for nearly two years & have been impressed with their results & consistency, but last week something strange happened. A little over a week ago Adengage introduced a policy of requiring a C/Card to be added to your registered paypal account. No big deal I thought (I was using bank a/c funding so had to update myself), maybe a day of pain whilst webmasters update account info. ...well a week or so later, my ad sales are half what they have been the last eight months, with no sign of improvement. Has anyone else had this experience? Anyone know why the policy change? Seemed harmless enough to me at the time, but my pocket is starting to feel it.
I have had some very interesting experiences with Adengage. Not the least of which was their refusal to pay my after approving my sites and using their techniques to place ads. I would think long and hard about any dealings with these people. I can't say for sure, but I feel a huge wave of change about to hit them when advertisers discover some of the "creative click baiting" techniques that are being used by Adengage publishers.
