I've bought advertising on the Smutserver network today. Supposedly I'd be getting 20 million banner impressions.

http://www.flyupskirts.com/

This is a random site hosted at Smutserver. There are more but as far as I've checked they all show my ad. Mine is the one at the top for penis pills.

A few hours ago I mailed Smutserver asking to change the link, so that instead of sending people to the MAIN page, it would link to a Product page, being this one:

http://www.pillsreviewed.com/penis_p....php?syst=smut

In a few minutes I get a reply saying it's been changed, and traffic pours in to the product page, like previously it was hitting the mainpage. Now the reason I changed it is because I was hardly getting any productivity. I'm talking 120.000 raws to my mainpage and only 43 (!!) sponsor clickthroughs

So now, the banner still links to my mainpage, but my mainpage is hardly getting traffic. Instead, the *product page*, which is NOT linked to directly on the ad, is being hit HARD with traffic, while the mainpage is getting nothing (Even though that page is linked to!). Either way, there's no productivity again. After about 25.000 raws I've seen about 10-15 clickthroughs.

Something is definitely fishy. Where is the traffic coming from, if it's not linked to on the ad? Why does the ad still link to my mainpage but my mainpage isnt seeing the traffic? And what's with this productivity problem?

If anyone has any thoughts, they're more than welcome. I'm LOST!
