PopAds.net Official Publisher Thread

Try to clear your cache and cookies. I'm not having any issues with popads.

 

Thank you for letting me know. Seems like the certificate was not recognized by some browsers. It is now fixed.

 

I start testing today, reviews later ...

 

Signed up as an advertiser to test this network, but the traffic estimate I got for my campaign was really low...would take many months to spend my tiny budget if the estimate is accurate.

Will get back with a review soon.

 

The more specific you make your campaign, the less probability of traffic you will get.

 

Ok, 1st day impressions: very low quality traffic, out of 900 "visitors" only one or two loaded another page, and average length of stay was 00:00!

Nothing that can be compared to AdSense for example, but hey, it's only the first day, let's hope it will improve...

 

It open 3 popup on same time all the day (supposed to open 3 popup on 24 h / one per time)
It do not count the real number of pop, if we suppose that only one popup is opened ! (but 3 on realty)
Rate is $0.91 ...

=> It the worst program that I never use.

 

Some more detailed stats for the traffic recieved day 1 + 2:

Referral Path: /servePopunder.php
Visits: 1812
Pages/Visit: 1.029801325
Avg. Time on Site : 4.272075055s
Bounce Rate: 0.986203091

And this is from "good quality sites or better".

I'm sorry, but this just doesn't do it. Maybe I've done something wrong? These $10 would be much better spent on AdWords to get maybe 50 visitors that actually interact with the site?

But I maybe just had the wrong expectations...

 

I've just joined pop ads, and I was wondering (this is going to be a stupid question xD) when I copy the HTML code, do I paste the <!-- PopAds.net Popunder Code--> or do I just use the code beginning and starting with <script>?
My knowledge of HTML is very poor.
Thanks guys.

 

Have you contacted support with this issue? All opened popunders are counted. Always.
Please provide me more information when there are more popunders opened than there should(I mean, on what browser)?
Also, even if there are more popunders opened, they all are counted.

I am worried that the problem is that you have no experience in advertising using popunder traffic. Clicked traffic and popunder traffic are two different things.
You just cannot compare Adwords with PopAds, as for those two you require completly different landing pages.

Just paste it as it is provided by the code generator please.

 

i was paid twice by popads, but the bad thing is the ads wont display most of the time and even their website faces lot of downtime.

 

During last few weeks uptime was very good. The problem started yesterday(we hoped it was fixed). Techs are working on bringing the site up.

 

Is it common for both trafficrevenue.net and popads.net to be down at the same time? Just wondering. Good luck to the techs, hope everything's all right.

 

Yes, as those two networks share the same front server.

So the news is that it was a hardware failure(most probably mainboard), however my techs replaced mainboard, ram and cpu to speed up repairs(by eliminating diagnostics).
The problem is that new hardware caused licensing issues with our webserver software, and that's what we are working on now.

 

After replacing mainboard, cpu and ram(which caused problems with licensed software using hardware id), over 18 hours of troubleshooting all seems to be back to normal now.
At this point, techs are still working on the server to check what caused the problem.

Now I need some rest, it was hard day. At the beginning of next week, I will let you know more details about compensation program.

 

i have 2 questions
1- do you accept NON English sites?
2- do you accept adult sites?
thanks

 

1. Yes
2. Yes

Technical update: another hard drive was replaced and that resumed operations of PopAds and TR. Today I will be discussing with my techs how to extend our server architecture to prevent such problems in the future.

 

Have you ever thought about moving your networks to some cloud?

You'll lost so many advertisers and publishers with this. During all the time using popads.net, I can see it's just getting so not better :|

I would recommend you enscloud.com. They are great at price and support.

 

I am sorry for recent problems.. Seems like the last, not replaced hard drive was the root of the problem. This caused filesystem corruption.
Right now, we got a completly new dedicated server and data is being copied over now.
I will be also discussing cloud sloutions with my techs today.

Also, I'd like to apologize for being unkind to some people over chat/IM, but please, understand I really want it to be all working again. Complaining that you lost $5 yesterday due to server downtime does not help me at all. Please, understand that the problem causes me losses of thousands of dollars and there is not much I can do about it at this very moment.

 

I love popads and trafficrevenue because you don't have to obsess over placement and colours and stuff to get people to click them.
Anyway, the ads are showing on my site...is this normal? If both TrafficRevenue and PopAds are down, the ads are down too?
(Just trying to understand how this all works).
