Anyone?

Would like to know how it compares to other traffic brokers.
Lets just say the "recent update" tilted the playing field away from advertisers and more towards publishers imo.

Here are two off my head:

- no longer show banner impressions or any kind of ratios on banners (gone!) System highly favors the best banners.

- raised advertisers min budget /day to like 5 times what it was.. 50 visitors/hour now vs 10/hour before, which is a bit high. So in essence you keep getting hammered by guys who php.out you all day or some shit as I cant find my plugs on their pages.

So I ban these guys right and left. They are almost always large sites with lots of traffic (ever notice that?) I see php.out and I am looking at your ass

That is about it. There are a couple more but I dont want to be too hard on PR as I like their system and want to encourage it.

So other than a couple pet peeves the system is good and generally a good deal for advertisers.

On the poss for fairness and cause I like the PR guys.

- their blocking system and ref stats are very nice and efficient
- prices are very reasonable

all in all for PR.

Get the other stuff fixed.. 1) stats on banners and more banner control and 2) lower min budget to where it was and you get triple thumbs
