So the problem is obviously not the traffic since both pages get the same traffic.

I didn't change anything in any backend, I'm sure someone who cares enough can do a google cache search and see this. Premium is a play on words the OP is manipulating. to me and pretty much most people consider premium to refer to the country, ie premium countries are us uk ca germany etc. Non premium are brasil mexico etc
Regarding your first paragraph, thanks for explaining.

Regarding the 2nd... I'm not sure what to make of this. You're saying 2 things here, the first of which is that he didn't actually buy premium_us traffic but instead he actually bought geo_us traffic. But you are also saying the the term premium traffic only refers to the country of which the traffics comes from. So it's a bit contradictive and really needs to be cleared up.

The way I understand it, you basically have 2 types of traffic...

Premium which equates to managed/clicked traffic, like from a text link, banner ad, etc.

Then you have non premium traffic, which equates to skimmed traffic from tgps, tubes, etc. - like when a visitor clicks a thumb that he thinks is going to show a picture but instead takes him somewhere else.

Not trying to bash you here but you're taking 2 different stances on the whole premium thing which raises concern. Or it could just be me, I don't know ><
