    My XTUBE Ad Test Run Results

    I did their minimum buy to get an idea what clicks are like. I realize I'll need to run a much larger test campaign to determine average sales figures, but I think with this number of impressions that the click-through rate is well determined.

    Campaign Cost: $50 minimum buy
    Total Impressions Purchased: 62,500
    Total Impressions Delivered: 62,700
    Total Click-throughs: 154
    Cost-Per-Click: $0.325
    Total Sales: 1
    Conversion Ratio: 1:154
    Sale Amount: $29.95 recurring (still active)

    This was a test of their gay traffic pushing one of our gay single model sites www.JoshTucker.com using this banner:



    I think I'm going to drop a few hundred bucks at it tomorrow and we'll see what kind of sales results I get with a bigger traffic sample.

    I'll report back in this thread......

      Hey BoyAlley. Make sure to let us know of that rebills, and what happens when you take more traffic. And how long did it take for delivery?

        I agree at first glance (especially since I see pricing is even higher now than it was when I did my test).

        I just don't think I did anywhere near large enough of a sample to really determine what the final sales conversion will be. And since it's such a huge potential traffic source, I want to give it a fair shake.

          A few hours, but I think they throttle it. They say they have 500,000 - 750,000 gay impressions available / day.

                    I will add that their customer service was REALLY good. Their sales rep even offered to play WarSheep with me on ICQ

                            It's been a good performer for us other places, which is why I chose it for this test run. Dunno.

                                      I would never pay for impression. IMO, this seems like a waste of money. Impression fraud is too easy.

                                            BoyAlley:

                                            At 32.5 cents per click you could dominate some AdWords campaigns if you spend some time on it. My apologies if you've already been down that road...

                                            Just a thought.

                                              i thought it was overpriced myself and buying impressions is not something i would care to do. i know the gts guys have plenty of high traffic sites where you can buy a week or month at a time for less than it would cost to buy impressions for a month on this site by half or more.

                                                  32c/click seems extremely high to me although like you said, this was a very small sample. I'm willing to bet over the long term this won't work in your favour though. You can get much better qualified traffic for that CPC rate.

                                                        stupid question, would it pay for me to throw $50 to a few FHG's or a free site with a bunch of FGH's listed? Please advise

I always think how great it is (for me) to have my watermarked straight videos playing under a gay banner.... more type-ins for me.

                                                                                          I got NOTHING from xtube, not even a discount or free traffic. I posted this to be helpful.

                                                                                          I tested it out. I was going to run another larger test.

                                                                                          Before I could do that (in less than 1 day), they RAISED THEIR PRICES EVEN HIGHER for their gay traffic.

                                                                                          I decided with the raised prices, it definately wouldn't be worth it, so I didn't do a second test.

                                                                                          This thread is over a month old now, you can stop bumping it.
