What happened to Rude.com?
 

hahaha bought up Rude.com in a flurry a while back, and they said they were doing major things, and I haven't heard anything from them or about them since.

What's the scoop?

I bought hahaha. DOn't tell anyone :winkwink:

Telling anyone would be rude....com

Shrewd.bang

Danny will be here soon

My guess is hahaha's acquisition appetite was bigger than his current capabilities and he doesn't/didn't have the infrastructure to develop this property to were he envisioned it to go.

Infrastructure is king!

Thanks for the update :thumbsup

Always a pleasure chatting with you sexy.
Let me know if there's anything else you need.
I'll be hitting you up again in the very near future about that beta thingy we discussed :pimp

yawn lol. smart business people adapt to what makes money. if the earnings of rude were based simply on alexa, it would be just another tube.

Its a very good question. I have been wondering too.

Rude $1 pay per sign up was moderately good a few months ago, but last 3 maybe 6 months, either they have lost the ability to convert for free or there is something wrong with their stats.

Below is a comparison of the last 3 x 3 month periods with actual figures. All traffic from same source (GEO IP redirected SE traffic).... 100% clicked from my redirection page ( http://www.lagc.info/index6.html ) to rude.

To be honest, I have only kept this ad up to reach a payout but getting the last few dollars has been ridiculously slow and I STILL need $2 more.

Anybody got 2 mins to help me test signups are being properly recorded?

I have several webmasters under me at rude.com that are making a freakin' fortune... forgot to check my webmaster referral $$$ - well that a nice big flat screen for doing nothing hahahah

Danny will check your stats in a minute
