    Hey,

    I just want to share with you my story with ExoClick. I was cooperating with them for long time, without problems - expect at the begging I had to wrote them email and ask for first payment.
    Then I went to study aboard and I had no time for my websites and so I was out of business ( well I still had that websites, but without a new content there was no traffic)

    Now I wanted to get back and I wanted to include Exoclick, so I gave them some ad spots on all my domains - I am running this domains for several years already, but I have forget my username and email and support answered me, that I can create another account and just use www. domain .something for already added domains under my old account.

    I am not a big player and with ad sports divided to more companies it took me 3 months to reach withdrawal minimum. I also had to contact them to get my first payment, but even then before I was getting paid without problems, now they have decided not to pay me and close my account. Most of my traffic is from HQ countries, on alexa my top 2 countries are Germany, Spain and France. My account has been closed due of "low quality" and no payments for me because some advertisers will be "compensated".

    Well, I am cooperating with JuicyAds and Ero-Advertising and no one told me, that I am not get paid because advertisers will be compensated.

    You need to update your post to show how they are cheating.
    Here's what I read
    • I had an account and some sites but life got busy so I put the lot on the back burner
    • I've graduated/dropped out and now want my sites to be profitable again
    • I can't remember my login details and I can't even search my old emails to see which email address exoclick used. I've got a few different gmail, hotmail and ymail accounts and I might have even used an email from a domain I've since dropped. I really don't know because it's not as if I back up my emails.
    • I've created a new account and fudged my domain details to get going again
    • I've started building my sites up and have let you know that I'm "not a big player" because I know you'll all immediately assume that my neglected sites will be amazing, and I need to put you right.
    • I never dreamt that neglecting my sites would mean people might think they are low quality. It's as if competing sites have been launched while I was studying and the older sites kept getting worked on. WTF? That's not fair!

    Well... no.

    What I wanted to say was, that was a time when I was taking care about that websites and I was able to earn quite good money, but still I wasnt earning thousands dollars as someone. I just wanted to say, that I am a small publisher. Than I was too busy by doing something else, so I had no time for websites, but they were never dead, they were still updated but not that often as just be, but I wasnt expected any income in this period, but after some time I wanted to make them live again, so I have updated design, a new content is published several times per day, etc. Just in old times where I was getting paid from ExoClick without issues, so I was expecting it will be same now.

    I dont think that my websites are neglected, because my alexa ranks are
    1. Rank: 104.900 bounce rate: 27%, daily page views per visitor: 6.20 time on site is 6.5 minutes.
    2. Rank: 970.600 bounce rate: 42%, daily page views per visitor: 5.80 time on site is 8.30 minutes. Most popular in Germany, France and Spain.

    So I think that these are not stats of some bad & neglected websites so I think I have right to expect to get paid for banners views provided to ExoClick, because I bring them visitors for their advertisers, they got paid for it and I got nothing after 3 months.

    btw. Yeah, I was trying to find it, but a problem is that emails from exoclick ending up in spam box, so they are usually automatically removed after some time and thats why I have contacted support if they will be able to find owner of that domains.

    btw. II: on JuicyAds I have rating 100%, on Yllix I have VIP status with daily payments and traffic rating as excellent. So to write me email when I was asking for payment, that they are not going to pay me, because somehow is exoclick super specific and only for them providing bad traffic... Sounds like bullshit to me
