    Hi
    I'm make an experiment about infolinks, I take the risk and I click on my own page links added from the code of infolinks,
    I click 3 times and after I login on my account to see how much I earn on my report tool, the tool was in 0 yes 0
    they not count my clicks, they only count clicks from USA or they just cheating ? :mad:

    just tell me who is cheating here ?

    you click on your ads and you have the nerves to accuse infolinks for cheating for not counting your own clicks on the ads on your site ??

    my advice .. keep clicking on your ads :) yeah they cheat .. lol

    Well , your test may lead to worse results , next time ask others if you want a test.
    Is there any infolinks staff here ?

    Hi there all of you,

    We spotted this post and thought an official reply would help:

    Infolinks updates the members' reports once every 24 hr, therefore we assume that the reason mlao didn't see his clicks in his stats is that he simply didn't wait for the daily report to be published.

    Also, Infolinks uses a sophisticated anti fraud mechanism that identify fraudulent clicks and removes them, I don't believe that a onetime occurrence of a single or a couple of clicks by mlao would trigger it but it is possible that they were disqualified.

    In any event it is forbidden to click ads on your own website.

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at the infolinks support center at: support [at ] infolinks.com.


    Regards,
    The Infolinks Support Team

    Wow what can I say ...:eek:
    Yes Infolinks Support Team is right, now I can see my clicks in my stats..:)
    I just make this to try if everything was okay, sorry about it, I will never do it again..:eek:
    Now I add them ads everyware....
    By the way, for all of you that they tell me, < Tell your friends to do the test Don't do it yourself >
    Cheating is Cheating. If do this by your own, or by your friends.
    I just make a test... I don't thing I'm the only one in this world try to see if everything was ok...
    And I was take the risk to post this.
    Thank you.

    Maybe infolinks want''s to set the record straight since the discussion is rampant. Is your average CPM/Click Payout 100 times higher than Kontera?

    Josefine, listen up!

    I have been using InfoLinks for a couple of weeks now and I find their customer service outstanding. Can you imagine getting a response from Google Adsense hahaahahaha

    I have used their contact info on their site maybe 3 times since there isn't a lot of answers on their website. If you are patient they will reply within 24-48 with a decent response from a person, nothing copy and pasted.

    As for the money, I am making 3 times with InfoLinks as I am with Adsense. The reason I compare it is because you basically embed the code and that's it. No more work to be done except grow and build your site. :D

    Maybe you should change the title of this thread because it is clearly who is the one cheating here.

    I have about 13 clicks on my infolinks intext ads and yet I still have $0.00 in my account despite the clicks. Why am I not earning for the clicks made? Can this be explained?
