Advertising

Hello everyone, I just found this cheap advertising site and thought that I'd ask if anyone here has ever come across it. Basically, it's like tinyurl but before the person following the URL get's to the real link, they have to view an advert. I have found that the advertising fee's are very cheap. adf.ly - Advertising Rates

If you think about it, you can pay for 1000 views with one red from xpango (on the affiliate scheme).

What's more, you get to decide where your hits come from and it looks like they're having a sale at the moment.

Has anyone got any experience with this site? It's sounding pretty good to me (so far).

But, frankly speaking, people like me with slower connections skip the ad before even giving a look at it. So, I don't know about others, but if I were some online user, then I would surely consider such ads as scam. Sorry if I sound criticizing, but that's the way it is in my opinion. So, it's up to you now whether you wanna go for it or not. If you do, then good luck!

So far, I'm planning on trialling it, it's only around fifty pence. It doesn't count as a view if they stick around for less then five seconds.

Don't feel bad, i need honest opinions.

Already tried it, trust me it's really not worth it! Had a ton of views but never one sign up from it!

Which package did you buy?

**MJ10** · 19-10-11, 03:56 PM

several of them, targeted and not targeted. Seriously it's not worth it. Nobody clicks on those ads you get before you can see a blogs content, I wouldn't waste a $1!

Due to the fact that I need to spend at least $5 on it, and because of MJ's advice, I'm back to the drawing board :/.

Thanks everyone

Thanks everyone

if you want traffic to your website for just $5 then check out fiverr.com their is one gig that offers 10,000 views for $5, but remember the only reason people will be viewing your website is for an incentive. the best trafic you can get would be from google from people wanting to find your site.

Bear in mind, some people, like me, don't even see ads because we have awesome web browsers.

I just bought $100 worth of google adwords credits. They won't allow my to link directly to my freebiejeebies referral link cuz its "spam" - but I was able to link to my site and that link to my freebiejeebies. I will keep you guys posted on what happens. I have it set at .66 cents per click, and its targeted.
