I DREAD when I have to use a company like plugrush and others etc etc to replace my private buyers. Its sad I have to sit here and toss a coin up and cringe to see which ad company I will try next. I cant sit here and watch this garbage anymore. Not too long ago people were paying $3 per 1k uniques of regular traffic. They were paying $5-$8 per 1k of mobile traffic and $5 per 1k was standard for US mobile. When I say not too long ago, I meant within 1 year. Who is determining these god aweful price drops?
Who is setting these damn standards? If these companies had balls, they would all get together and figure out a common ground and fair price to sell the ads at. People need to buy traffic no matter what, so you cant say that you would lose buyers.
I keep hearing some countries pay better bla bla bla but come on. I was just using plugrush and in the past( last 2 months ago is when I stopped), I promoted them and I was making $2 per 1k etc never below $1.5 per 1k. Now its $1 per 1k? Who is selling traffic at this horrible price you kidding me? Dont even get me started on the amount of money these ad companies are making and then paying the publisher dick. Also, they only pay for uniques which seems to be the norm now, but what about all my other traffic? obviously its worth nothing according to you guys right? Pffttt.
How can you(plugrush, any other broker in a sense) let the advertisers decide what your prices are worth? I asked plugrush and they told me it is based off of what the advertisers pay?? This is a joke. This industry is def dying if this is the case. We already knew it was dying with paysites and horrible TUBE traffic but jesus. What is next?
Worst part is, WHAT IS THE POINT of buying any type of traffic from these type of companies? They give you feeder traffic with a bounce rate of 60%-80%? NONE of it stays or is worth anything. Its basically feeder traffic FOR and IF you have sites with trades etc which your site/sites never grow unless you are buying millions a week.
The ONLY successful way of buying traffic was buying from sites like yours, that you could get actual surfers coming back because it was the same type of quality traffic(niche, etc).
I have been in this industry since 2004 and this amongst other things lately is eye dropping. Im tired of it. If this keeps up, Id tell everyone to think about selling and looking for something different to do. At least you will get top dollar while you can before this ad companies drop it down soon to 50 cents per 1k.
I needed to RANT. I have been talking to so many webmasters of all niches and mainly all HUGE network traffic owners about all this and everyone is disgusted.
