PopAds.net Official Publisher Thread

Everything is fine on our end, but your website takes approx 50-60 seconds to start loading I am pretty sure this affects your traffic.

 

something is wrong with your adcode for sure because Chrome visitors when click on a target="_blank" link your popunder is blocked and is opening only if visitor click anywhere on page (no links)

 

This is something we can't do much about. Let me explain how it works - in all modern browser, popup blocker will allow new window/tab to be opened only on click.
Chrome additionally limits it to 1 new window or tab per click. When you have our code installed as well as use target="_blank" blank, what happens is that on one visitor click, first the URL from the link is opened in new tab and then our script tries to open our ad. However, as it tries to open second new window/tab on that one click, it is blocked.

A possible solution would be to for example remove _blank from all links, however I am not sure if all publishers would accept that. I will speak with our techs to see if there is anything we could do about it.

 

I know how Chrome is working now ,i know it allow only one new tab at once to open but after you have changed ad code and after latest Chrome update when a user click on a "_blank" link your pop is blocked and chrome is blocking as well that new tab after click,so user must click twice on a link to be opened in a new tab.

 

Thank you for the details, we will look into it within next few days. There is a chance we will have popunder on Chrome working again, so we will be changing the code for Chrome anyway

 

Ahh ..due to this my income decreased, earlier I was earning $7 a day now it decreased to $4

 

I am sorry we did not identify this issuer earlier. While we test each adcode update on all browsers, we did not test _blank links. Also, as it seems most of websites do not use them, we did not notice any visible traffic drop.
The plan right now is that our techs are finishing new reporting system(it is 99% ready ), then we will investigate this issue.

 

direct url traffic will be expected for a long time...

 

I am afraid it won't be possible due to many many reasons:
1. With direct URL, most of our anti fraud technologies won't work.
2. We won't know the source of traffic.
3. We won't be able to tell if the traffic is "resold". And resold traffic is something that our advertisers do not like.
4. Our system was built in a way that actually makes it impossible to do direct URL.

However, we have some ideas for whitelabel reseller of our platform on both publisher and advertiser side. Yet, it will never be a direct URL.

 

I don't agree with the above statements.

1. With direct URL, most of our anti fraud technologies won't work.
Most of the big RTB platforms having a best anti fraud detection. I don't agree with this.
2. We won't know the source of traffic.
You will be able to source with the direct url too. Thats how trafficrevenue worked as well.

 

1. Most of big RTBs I know(RMX for instance) have very little or no fraud filtering at all. The reason is that after the ad is opened, there is very little information that can be gathered. Remember that we are just a CPV network and we focus on technical traffic analysis in order to detect fraud. Other way is to detect fraud basing on conversion data, however as we do daily payments, it is not a reasonable option.
2. This is not correct, referrer blanking or faking is too easy. How easy is to send traffic from porn site to some blogger blog about insurance and put javascript redirection?

In other news, seems like we have a PoC solution for the issue with _blank links in Chrome. We will be updating adcode in a day or two.

 

As promised, we have just updated the adcode in order to fix the problem with target="_blank" links on Chrome

 

well done ,now everything is OK and congratulation : you have now forced Chrome to open two pops at single click because target="_blank" click is considered as popup as well

 

Thank you for confirmation, yes we did some magic
As the code is cached on client side for a while, the change will not be visible for everyone instantly.
It might take like few days till 95%+ of traffic uses the new code.

 

I saw also drop in my referral earnings but now it seems to be going back. So I can say popads is very good ad network.

 

How much time to pay popads.net. I mean Net10, Net15 or Net 30. Paypal?

 

PayPal payments are sent within 24 hours from request.

 

And Payza? I have requested Via Payza at 13th February. Still Waiting

 

With Payza it is more or less biweekly now. Biggest problem is that Payza does not allow us to deposit with credit card and wire deposit takes ages...
Yet, we are finishing integration with Payoneer and hopefully that will solve the "Payza problem" Btw, Payoneer will be daily automatic, same as PayPal.

 

I like your quick support. So now am going to request some bucks Via Paypal.
