Webmaster SMS Poll
 

Webmasters, would you be more inclined to join/push sponsors that offer SMS in a lot of foreign (Non US/CAN) countries?

We're talking access to the online site, not mobile.

Inquiring minds want to know:thumbsup

The more options/cascades the sponsor has the more traffic I send.

Im sure as hell gonna put sms billing on my paysites soon, for surfers more then for webmasters ;)
Still figuring out what processor to take for that though, anyone got info on that?

:thumbsup

I'd use SMS on my programs, BUT... I hate the fact that the end-user gets raped, telcos take a huge percentage as well as processors and I get pennies to the dollar which I'd have to share with webmasters. When processing/telco fees come down it's more reasonable. :2 cents:

Just hit you up on icq :thumbsup

We can help you generate revenues from surfers in over 230 countries, speaking over 62 languages.
Plus we can block US or any other countries that you do not want to have access to our platform.

A bit difficult to arrange for high value cam credit packages. But, when we start promoting weekly shows, we'll definitely offer it for ticket purchases. :)

Well, let's take that a user in the UK pays 10 GPB ($16.7), out of that there is about 20% of tax, then you need to pay the telecom company, the monthly fees for the SMS keyword, then we take our cut and finally you get your $6.

A similar SMS made in Russia would cost the surfer $5 and net the sponsor $2...

There is really no way around that, SMS and phone billing involve a lot of intermediaries and are a much more complicated process than a simple credit card transaction.

Also keep in mind that people who like this method of payment do so of their own free will.

And best of all keep in mind that Global Acces pays weekly, does not deduct charge back and most importantly pays you right away before we even get our money.

That was fast! Thanks :thumbsup

Well, a good solution for you would be to have us post back those countries that have low payout to a VOD landing page where you could offer them a limited access to pre-recorded cam shows :thumbsup

Offering VOD archives are a great way to make money on clips you've already made money on.

One thing I tell everyone who is getting ready to offer SMS and phone billing is to have the US traffic blocked, so your traffic isn't diluted. You'll get better conversions that way.:2 cents:
