$7.00 Bought Me 7 Ghosts.
Yep! $7.00 bought me 7 ghosts...
What happened?
Well I had an account with Adfly com ...and some dead change in my paypal account which I thought let me use it and see what happens. I had actually forgotten I had an account with Adfly...and I still need to forget I've got an account with them.
Here's what happened in a nutshell - I signed in to Adfly my account was still open with no security checks, haven't used them for years. I bought CPM traffic to my WA afffili link and paid just $7.00 for 7000 CPM of traffic from Worldwide catergory.
In the first and second day...traffic started pouring in..3000+ one day and 3000+ the next. From that it seemed the going was getting good, I got 6 referals that joined in one day and 1 the next day.
When checking the the referals bio's all of them were empty...completely empty...not a 'hello I am so and so'...nothing ,so I knew straight away that this company Adfly are just using cheap internet users to click through on links and join sometimes and do nothing.
Its a lesson learnt I didn't get a targeted audience nor did I create or look for a targeted audience. (My fault)
My advice to anyone thinking about going down this route is MAKE SURE TO TARGET and target good, with a company that has a good understaning of traffic and not just these money grabbing crooks. On top of all of that Adfly short handed me by about 640 clicks, I put a complaint in as you can imagine...and used the best of the English too :)
Won't be using them again, they are not trust worthy at all regarding traffic and its amount.
The attraction to use this site is their simple interface...which now I know why.
Anyway that's my little story on this jounrney...take care and be cool.
