    I checked maxbounty and put up some fax ads cpa. Although it isnt redirecting to the correct site which is making me mad. I then looked at cj but couldnt find one I though fitted well. My site has around 150-200 uniques a day and has made about $10 of google last month. Due to this I wanted to change my ad type. What do you suggest?

    i think you should test more networks and see which fits best to your site and to your visitors.

    Which other avenues can I investigate? Popups is not an option. I wanted to try max bount but the banner is redirecting to the wrong site. Very annoying. Is azoogle worth a pop? What type of ads do they offer?

    Mikka, traffic on our campaigns go to the right site.... the only time you'll be redirected is if you're sending traffic to an expired campaign, or foreign traffic will be redirected on campaigns which accept only US surfers.

    Yes, if you are not from US and you will click on a link that's for a campaign limited to US you will be automatically redirected to a international campaign. Your eFax banner is working just fine. You can check for yourself using a proxy ;) (also check your stats to see if your visitors are US based or not)

    Ah I see, is there a way to prevent it going to a certain site? The one which is for no US people?

    A foreign click on a campaign being filtered by IP has to go somewhere. The merchant doesn't want these clicks, so we redirect the traffic to a campaign which does accept foreign traffic. If a sale/lead generates on this redirect, you do get paid for it.

    We figure it's better to give the affiliuate a chance to earn on some campaign than to instead send the surfer to a page saying that their traffic isn't welcome.

    Yeah I understand that now but is there a way to set the "backup" campaign? Eg I would rather it went to a hosting campaign or something rather than an online survey. Most of my demographic is from US anyways.

    i don't think you can do this with any CPA networks (setting a default campaign) although it would be nice... you can try to filter the traffic yourself... if the visitor is not from the target country show another banner
