    You are right, I had some mails from some visitors as well, they told exactly the same as yours.

    Troy, please fix this issue, some visitors can't still access the page after completing a survey

    it is because the surveys are very very long, some of the surveys which are paying more than $3 are impossible to complete. I guess only the $0.45 surveys work for visitors since they don't need to write a "report" of themself.

    Sorry CPAlead, but there isn't any transperancy in your network

    I was speaking about $0.45 surveys :) What Family Guy Are You? is a $0.45 survey, the others are the same. Have you ever tried to complete one survey just to see what you are offering to your visitors?

    I can't check the offers as I am not from USA. I think it would be a good thing to have a demo available for publishers.

    Also the new international offer is great :D thanks for adding it.

    This is why conversion rates matter. Even our highest paying surveys don't pay out all the time per our advertiser's requirements for information. Some users will be scrubbed by our advertisers for whatever reason, but our system makes sure the highest converting offers are always at the top of the Gateway.

    @ "hughmandy" we have no control over when surveys convert, but thanks for your misleading assumption and abrupt conclusion about our transparency.

    If you are disabling our top surveys because you see ones that pay out more, I would suggest enabling those surveys again to make your user's experience better by increasing their chances of the Gateway disappearing after they complete a survey. A happy user will fill out another survey later down the road when they are prompted to again.

    We do not have any surveys in our system that convert at 100%, no one does anywhere at ANY network (incentive or nonincentive CPA). This is the harsh reality of CPA, however it's still the best way to earn money without having your users come out of pocket.

    Tell me what did I assume? Correct me when I'm wrong, You (CPAlead) don't know at which point an action is converted to a lead (email submit? 2nd page?) and only the advertisers have that information. So again I ask, did the advertiser tell you what they want before considering it a lead when they advertise with you?

    Anyway, I did not say I ran a top survey and decided to test other surveys. Nor did I say surveys are suppose to convert 100%. So who's been making the assumptions now?

    Sorry, I am not trying to find trouble here but its just that your offers don't have enough information for publisher to weigh whether its the right offer to give to our visitor. Imagine filling up pages of survey and still didn't come to the end of it, (i didn't say this but members here said it in the earlier post) We just don't want our visitors to have a bad experience.

    Simply put, we, at least for me, want to know what we're dealing with.

    Thank you.

    Guys, CPAlead isn't a magic button that you push to make money.

    To be successful with this program you have to offer something the visitor wants. If the visitor doesn't want your content, your not going to get any conversions. How well you do in this program is how well you can hook a visitor, peek his/her interest up and then slam the CPAlead gateway on them when their interest is at it's peek ;)

    Cmon troy. What you need to do is read everything here. Then go away for a bit then reply so you dont get too angry about what people say about your company :p

    I agree that some of the surveys are absolutely nuts. HOWEVER, if you do not disable any surveys, then surveys that are nuts will obviously not be completed, and will drift to the bottom of the heap while ones that ARE two pages or whatever get floated to the top.

    From what you described hugh is just a case of the old scrubber in action. If you can see leads converting most of the time, except for a few who say it goes bananas on them, it probably is the advertiser not letting through the lead.

    Troy, thanks for being honest with us. I appreciate this.

    Can you tell me, if I disable all surveys for U.S. traffic, will my US visitors be able to complete this amazing Want to Play FreeLotto? survey which is for ALL countries? :)

    you are right :) but. you see, those my visitors were mad as they wanted to get the content and spent over 1.2 hours trying to get it by answering 2-3 surveys just to unlock the website and although they go confirmation that survey was completed, the website was still locked. Poor them, I'd never be as patient as these poor guys :)) In fact I care more for money than for my visitors but. I do value them as no traffic-no visitors - no money :)

    I guess it will.

    But I wouldn't recommend it to you, because world surveys are just for somedays I guess, it was last time as well. World survey was only for some days.

    And it's only 0,26 $, so I wouldnt recommend disabling all US surveys

    I see. Thanks. Yes it's only 0.26 but it's 1 short page so it's very easy to make our visitors happy.

    Nope. That offer is available for everyone outside the US I guess. Just checked and got the "This offer is not available in your area." page.

    This is true. Most of the time surveys don't work. And also not all 0.45 usd works. People are complaining in my website also. They end up doing 3 or 4 surveys and still can't access the locked site But they get spams in their email inbox from those surveys. All surveys of my gateway are enabled and still people do have problems.

    Please sort it.

    Is it work for wordpress?
    I don't think, because the code has to place in head tag.

    Please give the solution...

    Thanks, I see. I thought it could be very nice.

    Ramuramu, I don't know about your customers, but outside US (in my country, at least), it is only 1 page and then content is unlocked. Voila! :)

    CPALeadTroy, whatever they might say, I love the way you are doing business, at least, you are open and honest with us and I really appreciate it.
