I have referred over 52 new affiliate signups their way through using my 2nd tier referral link. I have spent money doing this. I was making a profit as I had made around about $300 in my account and I was earning around $10 - $20 a day from my referrals which I was happy about as I had paid money to get them through advertising and things. But then all of a sudden all my earnings just disappeared on my account for my 2nd tiers and my 2nd tiers stopped bringing income my way. I was earning from about 7 referrals and then it just suddenly stopped. I emailed Clicksor about it and they took about a month to sort it out. They did eventually sort it out, but was I shocked to see the email. They said something like: Hi, We appologise for taking so long at working on this problem, we have now gone through all your 2nd tier referrals and your account and have fixed the problems so you will now find the money back in your account of $20. The amount that you previously had on your account was calculated by error and you earnings is really $20. All I can say is thanks alot to Clicksor for giving false information and making me spend more money thinking that I was making a profit. So now my profit has suddenly turned into a big loss. I was only making about $50 - $75 from it at the time, but as I was earning more from my referrals that started to increase. But now I have made a total loss of more than $200, which is only because Clicksor has provide me with false statistical information.
Hey Jack, What where the CPM programs that accept proxy sites? I have one with 20K Impressions that is being wasted with YPN at .09 CPM Also can I put both YPN and CPM on the page or againts the rules or something? Emil
I'm not sure about which networks specifically accepts proxy sites, but there's no harm in applying to every network. I would try Fastclick (now Valueclick media), Casale, and TribalFusion would be the best if you can get in. The most they can do is say No, right? And I'm sure you can put CPM ads on the same page as all the other ad networks, Adsense and YPN included.
I have one question here How these advertising networks monitor your traffic when you apply for an account with them? Do they just believe you or you will have to show them your traffic stats. Secondly, 500-600 uniques/day for an entertainment site is fine to apply or better wait to reach 5-6k/day?
If you have high traffic , why not join Paypopup . I have been earning 30-50 per day for daily 35k page views. A lot of people complaining about the popup .. but as long as you control the popup frequency to 1 uniq per pop up , that will be fine. I also in touch with Budsinc(CPX reporting) they are quite ok , with 70k impression i am getting 25-30 per day
I am already with PayPopup, but don't want to use their popups on my site or any other network popups. I prefer my sites popup free.
