Hi all Over the weekend, i tried to login to my Smowtion account - but i get the message there my account was disabled and i had to contact "when i have questions" their support. That was somewhat strange, because i got no email from them, no "you are banned because..."... nothing. My account was filled with $120+ from the last 2 month, even i don't care much. But really strange was, that after 6 weeks with OK earnings, i added 3 weeks ago some more of my sites to them. Before that, i had a daily from $2.x ... Somewhat ok for popunders only. But shorty after i added more sites, my earning was going down to nothing - and i mean nothing. Like $0.08 a day and so on. Total earnings, not eCPM. What was more as strange, because i did not changed anything on the main traffic site. But for one day to another i got with same traffic not a single conversion anymore. I started last week to wonder about it, because the sites are excellent earners with adsense & ebay adds. Clean, good traffic, 100% white-hat in any way, 3 of them alone makes >1K per month together with adsense. I also saw no changing in earnings from both. Because Adsense & Ebay was main earners, i used Smowtion only for popunders, mainly to avoid problems with google. There is one thing - i created my account not under my real name but under a name of an Offshore company i had some realtionship too. That was on purpose, because as i started, i was curious about Smowtion is serious. I tried to read their site & TOS in my home language (not english) - and when you checkout the smowtion homepage and read it in non english and their home language (portuguise i think) then you know what i mean. Its tranlated by a robot, it reads like some nigeria connection spam. Anyway, everything beside that was ok, and it should no problem. When you see as company there are problems in the personal data you simply delay payment and then you ask for "update" of the personal information. That was also my intention, simply to protect other web project where i stand with my real name for. Anyone else here with problems in this month and/or a disabled account? Thats the first time was thrown out somewhere and the way looks so near to Scam at is can be. I asked them yesterday evening by email whats going on, its now 24h later and still no answer.
No answer, no email - they disabled me without notification. I can't say more as it seems to me that they lost advertisers which had for my websites (gaming related) ads with useful conversions and after a few weeks they decided to kick me out. Anyway, have in mind that i used popunders only. Buts it is very unusual behaviour and also not very professional.
Oh smowtion sucks, they been paying very low lately, i think they are no CPM anymore, they only pay per conversion. They should explain the changes and their should be an explanation explaining the account ban, Smowtion representatives are here at the forum, hope they see the thread and explain!!
Smowtion is slowly going down the drain. I have been using them for over a year now on multiple networks and slowly it seems they are running out of advertisers. No advertisers means no ads means no money means all publishers screwed.
I have a adsense account but adsense ads not showing on my wordpress site... check this i put the 720 by 90 sky ad on my wp homepage but ad not showing... life4rent . webege . com
its obvious you dont have any adsense account,, in such case try admaya.in especially if you have indian traffic
They wont pay , once the time comes up they will start some talks such as personal docs. error in ur account , details , site etc etc.. simply tehy need 2 months impression for small publishers . may be the do good for big ones who knows .. better not use
We did not have any problems with them. You may need to send your address proof, which they asked us to do and they have sent payment promptly to the paypal account. There's always the friendly chat support of theirs to clear the doubts.
They suck your traffic and greedy! Try to sell ad space in your blog or try to apply Adsense account again!
