Look, 6 euro here, 6 euro there... today there are a lot of small bitcoin related websites and it is too easy to advertise there without pay them, just need to say they have low traffic.
I didnt ask them, they offered me sign up and use thier banners.
The website was visited at least 4000 times, so at least 4000 visitors saw thier ads, the sum was generated on my dashboard of the account.
It is the same as one day adsense would say you "hi there! you just got 6 euro income during last 2 month, so we will desactivate your account and cancell your gathered money".
I am sure I was not the only one website, and now count 6-7 euro per dozens or hundreds websites...
How much money have they saved?
A lot of small startups paid them and they took those money, or you want to say they sent money back to all those startups who were advertised on my website?
I dont know how many visitors clicked thier ads, I remember to get 5 visitors and 4 euro income with adsense one day, and I also remember days when I got 2k visitors and just 5 clicks and 1 euro total daily income.
Now, thier banners were viewed by at least 4000 visitors since I added thier banners.
And the sum of 6,71 euro were generated by amount of viewed ads.
I remember to see on "yesterday impressions" from 40 to 90, maybe they got clicks maybe no, I have no idea, but thier ads were viewed and the sun was generated.
It was not me who desactivate the cooperation, so thier 25 limit is just thier problem, and I want my 6,71 euro.
Who knows how much they got from my 4000 visitors... Anyway, I dont care about that, that was the deal... And they scammed me.. and I suppose a lot more people..
I'm not here to bash anyone or defend anyone either for that matter.
I've been burned more than I'd like to admit, and pull numbers that are in a different league but I'm still small fish.
Now, when you start talking 10,000 unique visitors per day, that's when you can start feeling confident.
I'm just saying this to underscore that we are both small fry when it comes to the ad network giants.
Loosing $5-10 is annoying but really, it'll happen again, and again, and again... There are so many networks or shortener services out there that will scam you that it isn't funny. So, if you're going to stay in the game, get used to the frustration. Until your site is a serious contender you're likely to have to fight true scams more than once in the future. I'm living this reality myself, every payday is a roll of the dice. It sucks but what can you do...
Did you actually bother to read the requirements for CoinTraffic publishers?
