Metrics Direct - not recommended

[dpillz]

I like to try new ppc engines, especially when they have a trial bonus WITHOUT deposit ...

Got a promo email from somewhere (not spam) and they had $100 for free on signup ....


Well, $75 gone from my account a few thousand clicks .....

since i have nice tracking software (that i wrote) i can see incoming traffic trackers (eg ?tr=whatever)and outgoing clicks are also tracked (cookie set at landing)
so i can see eg ?tr=googlead -> click on whateverpharmacy -> has a line with from where it came from ...



anyway, thousands of clicks and NOT ONE SINGLE click on a store!
Not even site browsing ...

I am suspecting an unvanted browser redirect, or botclicks, or get-paid-to surf ....


the last trial $25 i left for gaming/casino traffic, but NOTHING comes ....


pharma traffic mostly came for pain relief/weight loss, my site has price compare from PA/RXP/MPLLC/EUREXSS/GENBUCKSand NO outgoing click at all...

none of the links have a referer..... still have to check if ips keep coming back, but the qualityt spoke for itself ....

try it if you want but ASK FOR the free TRIAL $100 and do not waste money on it !!!


just thought i would share it before someone drops a fe 100s on them :)

Thanks for the warning.

Tried them a long time ago. Huge mistake. Also, they "serve" their ads using spyware probably downloaded by trojans. They guarantee you "full page" ads on the user's computer. Your ad is quite probably showing but the end user is cursing you while looking for the uninstall file for the search bar that appeared out of nowhere.

Hmm .... that explains the no referer story ....

on the other hand a 201/302 redir or meta refresh does not give you referer either ...


but yep, all their "hits" are one click/one page views with no clickthru at all


well good i did not deposit :) and good I am really keeping a close eye on my traffic :)

I tried them a few months ago on a website that had never been promoted or getting any other traffic. With my free $100 I made 6 orders and several times my free $100. So I gave them another $100, and never made another sale. So I quit while I was ahead. But I must say, I was pretty surprised I made any sales off their traffic. Didn't expect any.

Hmm ... quite honestly i was planning on trying for the free $100 then deposit $50 (or the smallest amount) to see if quality is still the same ...

but this time they did not deliver decent traffic even on the trial period ....



I made same research (i should have done this before) and turns out they install a software ("drive by download") without the users knowledge with some other free crap or thru holes in windows and theygenerate popups and other annoying crap ....

zengo or zango or whatever is the software's name ....

grrrrr ..... I quickly closeddisable my ads before some SEs ban the hell outta me or someone associates me with these crooks :(
