Woo- If you can earn 1cent per visitor why not just buy traffic for that or less. You could then get 1 Million visitors a day at no cost, but the hosting, if you look around.

But I see you aren't doing it, why not?

Because so far only AdWords traffic is good enough to make me that much. And their min CPC is 1c and with all my settings and targeting to the US only they can only deliver 3-5k clicks per day.

Hmm, why don't you try adtoll , adbrite and adengage also.

You can buy traffic for 1c so it can be done.

Because it isn't a guaranteed 1c CPC and I need all US traffic or I won't keep making my 1c per UV. US traffic gives me 5-7c per click with AdEngage and others while other countries earn me 0-4c per click. Also AdBrite is horrible. I had a CTR of 0.0001 or less last time. Like 60 million impressions and only like 40 clicks.

So you actually prove my point.
It's impossible to earn 1c per visitor unless you
have the right traffic(100% US) at the right cost(<= 1c) from
a premium source(Google adwords) which still can't be delivered
in the right amount. Then you need the right ad company
which is integri, I take it.

PS. Integri was down today.

Believe me I'd want to believe it's possible, but
so far nobody has proven it in real life.

Dreams don't count.

Hitsfree,

Intergi wasn't down, there was a glitch with one of the cpm banners that wasn't showing correctly, Intergi wanted a screenshot of the broken ad which I couldn't reproduce on my site. I ended up sending them a pic of the error on booties site.

Just because you don't earn a penny per visitor, doesn't mean it is not possible. I do earn a penny per visitor, sometimes more.

What you don't understand, because you probably don't run anything even remotely close to a successful arcade, is that it's not as easy as you think to buy in bulk (50k+ visitors daily) at a penny each or less. Sure, you can come up with 5-10k if you really try, but not much more.

You talk like you know stuff, but you have nothing to back up anything you say. You hide in anonymity trying to provoke people.

You won't ever have a successful arcade because you don't believe it's possible. That thought actually makes me happy.

Go bother someone else - or keep bothering me, apparently it amuses me enough to bother replying! But if it's arcades you want to try to debate me on, you will lose. You think you're smart, but you're really not - at least judging by the comments you post on this forum.

I think if you follow the thread backwards just a bit, the answer will come to you
