Of course, but the only thing we could do is tweet about it and pause the banners as from the location we were at the internet connection was the worst possible ever... Anyway, it's our fault so we are very sorry and will try to compensate everything. Publishers shoulndn't have any impact on their other revenues as our adspace is transparent when paused, and not consuming any resources.

Yes, we weren't online this weekend and couldn't finish the transfer to the new server. So today we stopped the ads because the old one would get overloaded.
This means that today there will be no payouts, and no advertisers will be charged. Hopefully tomorrow we would be able to make everything work again.
Please excuse us for the downtime...

You should really give people a heads-up prior, so publishers can swap out ad blocks to continue getting revenue.

Ahhh, got you. Well, so far it's been a great system, and I'm glad you're focusing on service before revenue. Just make sure it doesn't jeopardize the service (that's what I hate the most -- when something awesome disappears).
Exactly. We are planning a lot of improvements this month, mostly for optimizing, speeding up and simplifying our service (any ideas are welcome too). October 08, 2015, 02:38:37 AM
I meant the financial hit to you. Just with the low amount right now, I figured your fees aren't fully covering all costs yet.
That's right, but it still couldn't be defined as a "hit" when the overall trend is growth. We even intentionally paused our growth now before we move to a more powerful server and be ready to handle the growing number of impressions served by our new publishers.Our fee is too small to cover the costs yet right, but hopefully soon enough it will. Our highest priority though is to maintain a very good service for a low cost.

Again, cheap advertising today, and smooth service after we made some optimizations. Just in case, we are going to upgrade our server before we continue accepting new publishers.
It's great to see the site still rolling along. But with the low advertiser pool, what happens if it doesn't grow for a while? Seems like you're already taking a financial hit.
All of our publishers are getting payed great so far. The top ones are getting close to 0.005-0.01 btc daily for a single 468x60 banner. Every drop in the pool means very cheap advertising opportunity, so people just won't miss that.
You could see our current CPC and CPM prices at the front page as a proof how cheap it is to advertise through us.

We are back, our country targeting implementation was causing a huge overload of the server so we removed it.
Big apologies for our downtime.
It shouldn't be a problem now that we handle 50-100+ thousand unique impressions of the banners.
And only a week ago we were at 10-15 thousand.
Also, the network pool is very small today so every click that we provide you will cost you only about 2000 satoshis!
For a comparison, the same price at the other cheapest place to advertise - Mellowads, is currently 17000 satoshis.

We are just starting to look for a solution for this... Please excuse us today, obviously we tried to serve too many impressions than our server can handle. We will give updates here and on twitter.

We already found and fixed your problem (it was a space after your bitcoin address), so now you should be able to withdraw even if you add spaces by accident. Please try again. October 05, 2015, 07:50:49 AM
My withdraw link is invalid.
We made improvements on the tables with the publishers yesterday, please pm us with your website or email so we can check in details. Some other publishers made successful withdrawals today. October 05, 2015, 07:12:44 AM
