Clixsense Advertising Coop

Locked

#1 by ReeseWardley » Sun Sep 15, 2013 16:02

I have just seen this ad on Clixsense and I am wondering if this too is another scam?

They seem to be popping up quite frequently, first two sites offering referrals and now this.... :roll:

You pay $5 for 7 days for your link to be inserted in their advertising coop

Now you can pay one price, just $5.00 and enter the most amazing referral ad cooperative ever created! Easily said - we get your referral link traffic - you get referrals!

Hmmm Scam or Scam?

Well listen, you would probably spend your entire life posting here if you wanted to ask and/or
condemn/boast everything that is advertised at ClixSense.

As ClixSense states on site, it is not responsible for what is advertised here. I mean, truly, it
would be impossible for them to review every ad to a T that comes thru here. All they can do
is what they do....and that is, they do not allow certain types of blatant advertising such as
violence. All this is stated on the site.

Now with all that said, in regards to what you are asking which is it a scam or is it real, how the
heck would we know? We wouldn't.

With that said, is it realistic and is it achievable? Well of course it is. First of all, it is only $5 but
that does NOT mean you will get referrals. It means whatever it is, that it says....I am GUESSING
it says that for $5 it will place your referral link into a rotator and that it will place an ad at various
places such as free traffic exchanges, etc, and you might get a referral from it....but to be perfectable
sensible about it, you probably won't!

-How MANY people are in the rotator? 1, 2, 100, 10,000 ???
-WHERE is the page that is being advertised? Is it a specific page or is it simply the ClixSense replicated sites?
-WHERE is the page going to be advertised?
-HOW LONG does your link stay in rotation?
-WHO OWNS this?
-WHO MAINTAINS the page?
-WHAT type of rotator do the use? Sequential? Random? What?
-WHO HOSTS the page if it is not the CS replicated pages?
-What is the GUARANTEE?

I mean, seriously, you have to use something called GOOD OLD COMMON SENSE.

You want to blow 5 bucks and give it a try...go for it. No big deal. Ya might get something and ya probably won't.

You might ask yourself, WHAT CAN I DO ON MY OWN FOR 5 BUCKS TO GET REFERRALS?

-Do you think you might get more eyeballs on your page if you paid $5 to a traffic exchange?
-How about a local online newspaper site that sells banner placement?
-Maybe purchasing PTC adverts at another PTC?
-Maybe $5 worth of adverts on a GPT?

I would never ever call something a scam without proof.
The question you are asking is not a logical question.
What you should be asking is, is it worth it to pay someone you don't know $5 when you don't know
what rotator is being used, you don't know what page is being advertised, you don't know how long
your link stays in rotation, you don't know the guarantees, you don't know who owns it, etc etc etc
and would it be more to your advantage to buy advertising yourself straight at the horses mouth?
