Is Adengage Right About This?

I bought a small priced ad to test through Adengage, now it was like $5 so money isn't the concern, its the purpose and I'd like to know if I'm right or a missing something here.

Here we go:

I buy an ad placement on a website, I check my stats and see hits, I'm happy.

BUT then I notice hits from another site hxxp://greattube.net/great1.htm so I check it out and its just a page with a link rotator of some kind as you can see.

Now, I claim fraudulent, Adfengage says he/she is just placing the code on 2 websites.

How the heck is that rotator benefiting me or anyone else?

Am I missing something or is the advertiser up to something just to inflate clicks?

LMK, I feel I'm right, but hope I'm wrong.

Thanks

 

So you bought an Ad placement on a specific website, and Adengage allows them to place the ad on an entirely different website?

Thats just wrong...

 

Exactly, and did you visit page that they say is "Fine: ?

 

I agree that is wrong... you paid for an ad on a specific web site, that ad should not be appearing anywhere else.

 

adengage is a very tricky website to do business with at times, personally i would look elsewhere

 

adengage is riddled with problems and dont enforce that the sites that have the ad code dont edit the code. If you ever run on there run of network and check your referrers, you will see a bunch of sites that replace your image with a hot chick so that when people click it, you get charged.

 

I've used AdEngage before (even interviewed there bout a year ago), then I heard about webmasters also generating false clicks, so this doesn't surprise me. It is most definitely fraudulent though...you paid for clicks from a certain site based on assumed demographics, etc., so counting hits from others hits is fraud. Stop using them.
