what do you mean, assign a weight to it?

Weight is a rough estimation of site's value. Right now I am using http://www.getwebsitevalue.com to set the value, but it can be changed any time. So you can think of it as of some arbitrary integer number. Its absolute value means nothing, but it relative value will be used to distribute bitcoins between affiliates that have their ads on those sites.

New feature:

Everybody can submit a site now.

Anonymous Ads will periodically query the submitted sites, link them to affiliates and adjust some stats (it may take a while to see reasonable numbers there).

I will evaluate each site manually and assign a weight to it. Some of the bootstrap money will be distributed between affiliates of submitted sites with respect to this weight and affiliate's share of the site (the share is estimated automatically).

Have not decided yet how much and how often I am going to pay, but it will definitely increase the income of affiliates.

So, please submit your sites.

OK thanks maybe you can't view the GLBSE page because I have a LTC mining script on it and its generating LTC so some/most people can view it. About earning expectations well AdSense pay me over £0.80 a click but I've only had 6 AdSense clicks to the 21 Anonymous Ads clicks.

So your site generates less than 1k unique impressions/month, but your traffic is high quality and is valuable for particular advertisers, thus you expect about 1.5 btc/month for it?

Hi does - http://glbse.blogspot.co.uk/ - work any better for you? I've changed the LTC mining script.

Yes, it works now! Thanks!

I'd take less than 1.5BTC to be honest.

I'm Affiliate 143Jgi4ycmHG3AUNEFTaWWTWXtAdMKNTpu and haven't received a penny in referrals Sad

and I've only made 0.0663 from 21 clicks from over 700 impressions. Websites - http://glbse.blogspot.co.uk/ and http://redstarmining.blogspot.co.uk/

Thanks for your message. For some reason http://glbse.blogspot.co.uk/ doesn't work for me Sad

And what are your minimal income expectations?

Dailybitcoins.com charges 0.05 btc for thousand impressions. I can support you with 0.08 btc/month for leaving your affiliate code on first pages of your sites (+ affiliate and referral income from it are essentially yours). Do you accept the offer?

Regarding referrals: referral payments are 10% of bootstrap payments made by advertisers you refer.

IFRAME and JS versions of ads already contain referral link in it, but graphic ads don't.

So if you want to get referral payments but you can't use IFRAME or JS code, then you need to use the referral link from your affiliate page (feel free to modify it as you like, but leave your withdrawal address there:)).

I am stopping supporting affiliates on behalf of advertisers because it gives incentive for fraud and distorts statistics. Only advertisers are able to reward affiliates for successful visits to get the more impressions for cheap. And it will be cheaper if I don't interfere.

Since advertisers don't always do it, I'll use some of bootstrap money to support affiliates directly (it won't be shown in stats).

Dear affiliates, if you are not satisfied with your income from Anonymous Ads, please let me know your affiliate addresses, urls of your websites and your income expectations.

I might be interested in renting your ad space for 1-12 months or in supporting you directly when your income is less than your minimal expectations. I have about 10 btc to spend right now and I'd like to use it to augment the affiliate network.

Recent changes: affiliates can see how much they earned from referrals and how much they have left to withdraw. Referral link is also explicitly shown on the affiliate's page. You can use that link to attract advertisers and to receive 10% of their bootstrap deposits.

How is it that this ad has any reward score at all? http://anonymousads.com/ad/56 it links to this forum, so I don't see how the advertiser could pay out for clicks as they cannot track affiliates.

The advertiser could still look at the list of connected affiliates and pay out to those addresses.

edit: ahh, I see, the CSV for clicks has a list of all affiliates and number of clicks. Seems like a bad way to payout, but their choice!

So reward score/affiliate payments only help promote already connected affiliates, but do nothing to help you attract new affiliates is this right? If I spent 30 btc on an affiliate but nothing additional on bootstrapping I would never have any increased chance to attract new affiliates?

Yes, that's correct. The system is (pseudo)anonymous. Maybe that affiliate account belongs to you and you are just sending money to yourself

Thanks for your response. I still think there needs to be more, or at least more clear, documentation on how it works. I don't see why Dragon's Tale would have dumped 20 BTC into bootstrapping when they could have spent that money on affiliates and gotten more impressions/clicks for those BTC. My thoughts are that they didn't entirely understand how the system works?

It all seems rather complicated when I first approached it, and it took a while to wrap my head around it, as this network is so vastly different compared to existing ad networks.

Yes, I agree with you. I'd like either to make a better documentation, or to simplify the system, or both. Not sure how to do it yet.

Regarding Dragon's Tale, I will ensure that it receives an adequate traffic for its money so that its anonymous advertiser is not offended, and affiliates get paid.
