Traffic Holder, Traffic Junky, Plug Rush, Exo Click and Juicy Banners, how in the hell are these companies still allowed to do business?
Isn't it common knowledge by now that 90% of the traffic these companies sell is fake bot traffic? And they all have company loop holes preventing them from getting sued?
Disclaimers like "most of our traffic is real" and "we are not responsible for bot traffic" and
my favorite, "We are working hard to put an end to bot traffic" LOL Gets me every time.
Plug Rush has so much bot traffic, you can ask for a refund when you show them your logs and they will refund your money!
Juicy Banners controls the flow of traffic so well, when you banner gets 50,000 impressions daily, and your daily hit count is: 23, 22, 24, 23, 22, 19, etc.... Isn't it quite amazing how the laws of random statistics change with banners and they end up having the exact same daily average? LOL Beyond obvious.
And don't get me started on skim traffic, we're talking 99.9% fake bot traffic.
What I can't figure out is how these same companies wind up getting awards for selling fake traffic?
Nobody is buying porn sites, porn is free, but some surfers are buying cam sites with live girls.
So if nobody is selling their adult sites, then nobody can afford to buy clicks, and if nobody can buy clicks, the clicks they are selling must be fake to make up for the lack of business. (porn sales go down, advertising income goes down, not rocket science)
Simple rule of thumb: IF banner hits and skim traffic generated sales, the companies wouldn't sell the traffic to begin with.
Unless of course you're like Juicy and when somebody clicks on your banner, it doesn't go to your site, it goes to their affiliate cam site page. LOL But don't worry, it's all IP GEO'd out so when you click on your own banner, you'll see your site. Try it through a few proxies, but don't quote me.
