PlugRush What is Going On ?
 

Hey Guys
I want to share my story with Plugrush and maybe get some answers
2 weeks ago i sign up at PlugRush dot com.
I set up the widgets and popunders on 3 of my websites and wait.
Next day i check my stats (around 20-30$) and i say: Looks fine let's give it a try.
Everything is ok until users start sending me complaints about some sort of redirects to all kind of Tube Sites.
So i send a ticket to support and I explain about the redirect problem .
They kindly answer and somehow the problem is fixed.
Days go by and after 2-3 weeks i finally receive some cash in my PlugRush account :130 $
and i still have a few hundreds that are still not available
Anyway this is great news - i am able to withdraw $130 to my paypal account.....
But I get a message - It could take up to 5 business days .

So far so good but yesterday my account was suspended and i did not receive at least a message or anything else.

I tried to contact support , icq, aim, tickets ....... i have sent 3 e-mails but no answer.
I am just curious what could be the problem : i never tried anything sneaky in my life and all my traffic is Google Organic.

I don't care about the money but it's strange how Plugrush allows me to send traffic for 2-3 weeks and they answered all my questions in just hours while fixing the redirect problems and now i don't get a message at all ...

I've been burned for a lot more but the ignorance is killing me.

Hope i can get an answer.

bump for you

have luck. :thumbsup

Sounds Good

Did plugrush give you a reason?

:Oh crap

No until now no reason. Not even "Your Account has been suspended"

Hope things get worked out. I just got paid by them no problem a few days ago.

Plugrush suck big time in my opinion... their traffic has an enormous bounce rate and if you sell traffic to them they pay shit. 100 clicks to juicyads are around 1.5 USD and the same 100 click to plugrush are about 0.83 USD...:(

My rate on Plugrush was around 0.90 USD/100 clicks and it works for me unless i don't get kicked out just before i try to cash out the first bucks:)))
I try not to complain about bounce rate/ ctr etc ..... with every network i get 100 % different stats for the same traffic.
I just feel nowadays this kind of statistics are just some tools to keep us busy and nothing more....

After talking with PlugRush Stuff the problem was solved and my account was reactivated.
It seems my account triggered some filters and i was considered a cheater.
I think it's a good idea not to disclose what filters i have triggered because this will help real cheaters to know what to expect.
I was also noticed that my payment will be processed today.
Even if the incident was frustrating i must say that PlugRush takes security in serious which is a good thing for both affiliates and advertisers.
Thanks for the help

Great news Bary, I have an account on plugrush as well. I was a bit scared after I saw the thread but now it's ok

Hello Chill Vault

Wrong thread

wrong thread who?

:thumbsup:thumbsup

Fraud costs everyone so much, I can't imagine any program staying in business if they're not looking for affiliate fraud because there is so much organized crime of this sort.

Glad you're all good now!

i've always had a good experience on plugrush.

just make sure you ban all the domains that send YOU shitty traffic, and you'll get even better results.

hope you get your issues worked out!

+1 :thumbsup

How do you and where do you find where the shitty traffic comes from pardon my ignorance, and how do you discern the shitty traffic please share!

On paxum they usually pay within hours or minutes.

The problem with this happy-ending story is not that it occurred. Filters happen.

The problem is that Plugrush refused to communicate with you about it until you came to the forum to complain. That's not professional.

Basic would be to install analytics or some form of good stats program. Review your stats and then block the referrers inside the traffic program that send hundreds or thousands of hits that all register 0.00 time on site and 100% bounce rate.

me too, i don't know why plugrush suppend account then traffic 100% from google

old thread

a lot of networks / support are plain ignorant, it took much efforts to let PR accept my funds in creative method.... but now i have hard time converting their traffic - almost not exist lol

I do a good job with them still.

Nice story with happy end. I have been working to plugrush few years and never had any issues.

:2 cents::thumbsup

As good as always still the best
