Hello SolidSnake,

Just making a suggestion that may add another potential solid source of traffic to the Ads page.
This may be a potential consideration for you. I have yet to try this myself but thought I'd make a mention.

The Site is Rotate 4 All. Offering for a small fee fixed full ads rotated on various PTC sites. This would save a lot of money if one was to run fixed on various PTC sites. The sites notes "All sites in the rotator get equal amount of exposure, guaranteed."

They currently running as a Fixed ad on the following sites:
NeoBux, GoldenClix, Twickerz, Cashadda, CashOns, LegacyClix, Succss Bux, GPT Planet, Ads Clickers, Scarlet Clicks & ProBux.

Current prices on their site:
1 Day - $10
7 Days - $55 (Save $15)
30 Days - $215 (Save 85)

Link below.
http://www.rotate4all.com/offer/

Thanks
Jack

Hi Jack (whoops, i hope I didn't just trigger an NSA snoop program Grin

)

Welcome to the group.

That sounds like a great idea. I think I'll try it myself. It sure would save a lot of work. If there is an affiliate link(i can't find one) please PM it to me.

Thanks

One of the beautiful things about clixsense is it's intense tracking so what I'm going to do is run a one day test ad in this to see how many clicks I get. The signups are not as important but at least this way we can see how many page views this produces. I will report back my results

Na, your all good there.

Thanks for the warm welcome.
Much appreciated.

I know. Would save a few thousands of dollars of running fixed advertising on various PTC sites.

Unfortunately they do not offer affiliate link, would be cool if they offered it.
Just through the link I noted on my post.
Just click on the order form button and place the order that's it.

That would for sure get you a good few thousands of visitors to the ad you run with them for per day.Would for sure help as a solid source of traffic and has the possibility to get potential referrals/sales from the service.

I have run a test ad on clixsense before they do have good visitor tracking when I tried it out a while back. Despite my ad was run for a very short time didn't get conversions (my guess results would be a bit better if the ad was run for a longer period) but it did help improve my websites alexa ranking in the short run.

All good.

The results were pretty good. 20,000 hits with 19K unique and three sign ups. He just lowered his prices to $9 so you would save even more

If I see that they're still not worth it they'll be totally removed from my list. I think I've had enough from their lack of professionalism..

That info has always been public here :
http://ptcbox.me/adv/ad/#traffic_stats

If you scroll down you can see the current incoming traffic sources and when each one expires.

Plus from time to time I post here how many clicks the banners receive weekly.
Top banners receive ~70 clicks per week each.. I'm happy with the activity..

I'm still away from home and I'll return on Tuesday btw.
So, I'm posting from my new smartphone now.

Oh, sorry. I meant an update of these kind of calculations, to see which sites have been more cost-effective.

SolidSnake wrote on 27^th Sep, 2013 at 1:19pm:

Some summary of traffic details on all of the sites' grids :

ClixSense

2013-07-26 to 2013-08-26 - Total Hits : 24,690 ($0.00081 per hit) - Uniques : 24,052 ($0.00083 per unique) - Cost $20
2013-08-27 to 2013-09-26 - Total hits : 23,999 ($0.00083 per hit) - Uniques : 23,414 ($0.00085 per unique) - Cost $20

Twickerz

2013-07-26 to 2013-08-25 - Total Hits : 47,853 ($0.00031 per hit) - Cost $15
2013-08-26 to 2013-09-25 - Total Hits : 45,150 ($0.00033 per hit) - Cost $15

The Bux

2013-07-26 to 2013-08-25 - Total Hits : 15,011 ($0.0006 per hit) - Cost $10
2013-08-26 to 2013-09-25 - Total Hits : 8,682 ($0.0008 per hit) - Cost $7

NerdBux

2013-08-14 to 2013-09-13 - Total Hits : 11,163 ($0.0004 per hit) - Cost $5

BuxBoost

2013-08-29 to 2013-09-29 - Total Hits : 7,183 (

$0.00139

per hit) - Cost $9.99

I'll update these stats as we go.

Edited:

Update 1 (2013-09-27) : As we can see The Bux seems to be the worse advertising solution so far as it's the most expensive
and has pretty low activity when it comes to Grid clickers.. So I'm on the look for a new option.

Update 2 (2013-10-02) : And.. we've got a new winner of the worst position..

Oh, you're right.. I was supposed to update them.

PTCSolution Grid (140.000+ members) costs me $4 / month and delivers ~30.000 visitors / month.
-> Average cost : $0,000133 / click

Nerdbux Grid (245.000+ members) costs $5 / month and it delivers ~20.000 visitors / month.
-> Average cost : $0,00025 / click

Twickerz Grid (214.000+ members) offered a promo pack recently for 100 days @ $24 and they usually deliver ~50.000 visitos / month!
-> Average cost : $0,000144 / click

ClixSense Grid (~3.5 million members) - I got the 2 months pack so it's $19 / month and delivers ~24.000 visitors / month.
-> Average cost : $0,000791 / click (I wish this one was cheaper.. maybe I will go for the larger packs once I can afford it)

Probux Grid costs $12 / month and delivers ~25.000 visitors / month
-> Average cost : $0,00048 / click

Clixten Grid - I got a special deal with the admin there and he offered 1 year of Grid Advertising @ $30.. it delivers ~15.000 visitors / montn (not including its growth after one year from now..)
-> Average cost : $0,000166 / click

ScarletClicks Grid (160.000+ members) - I got 6 months for $35 (well he now offers 8 months at that price but anyways).. it delivers ~20.000 visitors / month (not including its growth after six months from now..)
-> Average cost : $0,00029165 / click

Cashadda had a good offer recently of 100.000 PTCs at the price of $17.50 and it can deliver ~30.000 visitors / month.
-> Average cost : $0,000175 / click

These stats are from a record I kept on December 19th.

The rates are variable enough but I hope this gives a good overview of the deals I'm interested in.
Basically I'm aiming anything below $0.0002 / click as it seems to be a great offer for my needs.

Glad to help!
I'd also love to be your ref there as well.. PM me for more details when you get the time..

You should have a special item-weapon of some sort... and I think we'd agree it should be a super-computer-mouse..!)
Basically I've just came up with an awkwardly cool idea.. do you happen to know anyone that can draw comics well?

Renewed Probux Grid for another month.
This month I received ~29100 visitors from them so it's kind of an increase on the ~24000 visitors that they sent me the previous month.

At 29048 clicks/month the cost is : $0,000413 / click
It's not the best but it's a good value for money.

Edited:

Thankfully they approved my ad with the first attempt this time.. Hands down

Looks like they actually did something about it..

I decided to test how much traffic they deliver for a month. If it's worth it then I'll probably buy their discounted 6-months pack at ~$5/month.
