Everyone can pontificate all day long as to the value of piratebay traffic and a purported Coca Cola ad campaign there for example. Everyone can talk about what its worth, talk about how shitty the traffic it is or how great it is. They can talk about abstract, ill defined terms like "branding" and how useless it is to target "freeloaders" or how its a great move and so on.
All i need to do is open my old stats from exoclick buys and see exact numbers from piratebay.org and their many many mirrors that were also selling ads. I can see exact traffic performance numbers. I can see ad CTR's, I can see CPM / CTR costs. I can see the breakdowns on the types of traffic (by device, country, carrier, pc/mac etc etc etc etc), I can see how they acted on the landing page, I can see how many clicked through to the sponsor, I can see conversions at the sponsor. See the exact return on each ad spot and ad size/type and all the offers tested and form opinions based on actual data and actual experience. I can tell you exactly how many people will even see the ad per 1000 impressions.
Pretty much all i do in this biz is watch brokers, ads, landing pages, advertisers, offers and competitors.
Others can only theorize, speculate and make things up and make dire predictions based on nothing and just summarily dismiss actual knowledge and data as being "wrong".
Just another day on Gfy and a perfect example of why someone like Paul flunked out of the business and most others are just hobbiests. ;) Before Paul was lecturing on tubes all day long (which he knows nothing about), he was lecturing penthouse and playboy and all their photographers on how to take a photograph and comparing their work to his shitty, cookie cutter, tgp filler content - which today, he can't even give away.
