Only thing that makes sense is you got played/conned.
Why would he sell the spot it if it was not a money maker?
Its like this:
"Dude I am selling this shit huge right now! Want in on the action""
Then you are like, "Uh sure... Whats it doing?"
Then dude is all, "This shit is off the hook bro and I will just hand you this awesome money making spot because you are cool and do it for cheap!"
Right there...
Stop think... Really? He loves you that much and just wants to hand you money?
NOT! Its a con.
You see this same shit day in and day out play out on GFY every day. Traffic broker steps up says hey I got shit tons of traffic for sale and its awesome when the week before they are posting begging for any kind of traffic regardless of where its from. Buy shit cheap and sell high... Reality is if it was worth anything they would not fucking sell it.
Here at SDA I have had traffic brokers step up to me saying hey dude buy some traffic! I am like no dude... Cuz if your traffic converted you would promote my program with it anyways knowing you would make money...
I wont buy traffic. I might buy spots later down the road though for tgp gallerie submits and such but them deals where a header banner slot for cheap? Fuck that shit its all a game.
No one sells a spot knowing they make money with it.
