id love to know what rule i have broken...

We do not care what you know you fucking little retarded peice of shit. You won't ever use your knowledge anyways. Just stay away from this board, my thread and franck threads.

You're a piss off bitch... die please.

I'm really fucking sick of you.

I thought you retired?

It's not 1300 a day.

You are so l33t for knowing that cybercat handle huns traffic dude. Now please go try and make a sale in this business. Thanks.

Jesus Christ.

You fucking morons. Franck you're almost as bad for even entertaining that moron with conversation.

I opened this thread hoping to get some real information, like actual PRICES, and all we see are a couple twats arguing over who's more worthless.

so i guess you know everything about me right?

real mature....

Hey dont blame me. Everytime that moron turns up in a webmaster thread it goes to shit. Blame the mods for allowing a SURFER to be the top poster on gfy.

Can ANYBODY clarify on the prices at all? I swear the last time I checked (though this was 2 years ago) the price was more like $600. I could be very wrong. $1300 would take 40 affiliate sales just to break even, add another 20 for bandwidth. Sixty sales is quite a bit just to break even.

1300 seems a bit much yeah...i didnt even the chance to think about because of that idiot. But yeah, 1300 for a random top spot seems a lot and not easy to make break even, let alone make profit.

It gets better.

That's the 27th, 28th, 29th, and 30th. Campaign ran for a day on the 27th, so the rest is illustrates the "fall off" ... however. I used a 'redirect' URL to track stats ONLY coming from The Hun (so, basically, that domain was registered ONLY in August, and ONLY used to track that). Over the next few months:

You see the HUGE dip in September, but then it picks right back up again in October, as bookmarkers come back, and the traffic comes in from the people who "scrape" the listings off of The Hun.

Then, I did an Autoblogger Pro campaign with another URL to track the differences "side by side":

Same fall-off patters, about 10% of the total traffic (although, free, instead of the cost of the Hun traffic). Then, over the next few months, I tracked traffic to a "target" site, to see how many would pop through the ABP campaign:

Overall, I found that conversions were decent for both methods, and The Hun sure does pour on the traffic.

I *just* capped these for you, so sorry for the delay in responding -- I was capping and uploading.

Im about to crash. Will look at those stats when i wake up. Thanks.

last time i got pricing it was $600 for the number 1 position for 1 day.

then it was like $2,000.00 for a week for the spots 5-10 or something like that.

as i mentioned before, best bet is to contact cyber cat.

Dude he's in EVERY thread. The potential exists for him to fuck up EVERY thread. He fucked up yours because you replied to him. I'm not blaming you for anything, I'm simply saying don't respond to him.

Between these fucking morons running around posting and the board NEVER loading properly for more than 6 hr. timeframes, it really makes me wonder why advertisers even bother buying spots anymore. Talk about ridiculous.

Surely I can't be the only one that notices practically nobody of any substantial importance is a regular poster anymore.

Too bad actual biz threads get ruined around here by surfers these days. :(

Last I heard it was around 6-800.. 1300 seems out there

I'll check, but I am reasonably sure $1,300 is what I paid. I'll get clarification on what it was by loading up that old email, if I can put my finger on it.

impressive numbers.

Sure thing, have a good rest.

Post your sites then... and some screenshots of your stats ;)

without the ability to sig whore, top spots loose their worth. better to have a cluttered board than a fall off of profit. :2 cents:

everyone starts somewhere, i have my adult blog in the works, my tgps in the works, and my porn blog in the works.

its a humble start :)

Thank you for enlightening me. We're all so lucky you know so damn much. What would we do without you?

you dont have to be mean :( all im trying to do is be apart of this community.

I'll give you this advice once, because I'm not going to run around and argue with you.

This whole "trying" thing is your problem. Stop trying. Start doing. Most of the people here don't try, they do, every day.

I know how boards work. I've been posting on GFY for 4 years. I think I know more about the History of GFY than you.

Franck, and most everybody else in this thread has been in the industry for at least 3 years. Everybody knows who Cybercat is. Everybody knows for a definitive answer to contact Cybercat. He was looking for a detailed and up to date answer from somebody who has purchased spots lately.

If a buddy asked you where he can get a burger and you reply "the burger place" he'd look at you funny and call you a smart ass, then expect a real reply. That is exactly what you're doing. You're telling people things they already know, things YOU learned by READING from others instead of DOING. Reading is cool and all, but it only gets you so far.

DO.

i understand 100% but some people have to start somewhere and i have started to build a name for myself on the boards. believe me posting like i do is a large task. it has infact helped me to network with various people. even people that show a public distaste for me, yet privately salute me for my dedication to my goal.

in regards to your buddy deal. franck asked publicly what the pricing was for the hun's top spots. now i know how companies work and normally they dont throw out their pricing on the boards. i bet once cybercat comes in here they will contact franck directly, rather than posting a price. if you visit their site, they dont post pricing. i think that is on purpose and therefore they dont want that info public. they would rather deal on a client-by-client basis.

with that being said, the response i gave was a good accurate response that was only given as a way to inform and not to detract from franck's question.

i am sorry the thread turned into a squishypimp hater fest, but i did not start that (franck did) nor do i think i contributed to it. all i did was defend myself like anyone would.

Mystery solved. It was $650.00 for a top spot, but $1,350.00 for THREE links in the 2-5 spot. It's all coming back to me now. Here's the rest of the pricing, from 2005:

listed @ thehun killing BW :321GFY

Then why not stop submitting there, so those of us that can HANDLE the traffic can have your links, instead of wasting them?

:2 cents:

.

thnx.. this was an awnser i was looking for between the flame wars ;)

No problem, happy to help. In all fairness, the subject *was* "how much is a top 10 spot on the Hun," and he also asked how long the wait was. Few people answered that, or even tried.

This thread turned to shit but finally we got a answer :thumbsup

If I read that email correctly only the top spot is pre booked where with the
2-15 spots you have a big chance of getting listed sorta fast.

yeah right...:)

this thread got squishypimpowned. what a moron.

Well, I can only tell you as of Sept. 13, 2005, when Nina sent this in reply to the question you just asked:

Then, after trying to pin her down to a SPECIFIC date, I got this in reply:

erm, that sucks

It was 2005, remember. Maybe they have fewer customers now.

I'd be interested to hear what you think of the new ABP screenshots (in my signature) .. instead of hijacking this thread, though, toss me an ICQ with your thoughts if you wouldn't mind.

I'll give it a try altho I'll most likely stick with free spots while I still can get them.

probably cause they knew you could afford a spot, another reason why they woldnt answer franck.

Yeah. If you can build quality galleries, they'll take them left and right. It's RARE that I get a gallery denied for a free spot ...

Bump for the annoyence

this is a good info

Squishypimp is the most annoying character ever on this board :Oh crap Please read Sly´s reply over and over until you finally understand it.

im sorry, but this thread was HILARIOUS!

this isnt an adult webmasters board. its a kid webmaster board.

your aruging over whats in your lunchbox.

totally pathetic, but funny to read.

not cheap at all,lol

How cheap do you WANT it to be? I think it's pretty cheap .. last campaign did like 40-something sales ..... that's a great return, IMO.

Yes, it is the incorrect advice to give. Everyone knows Cybercat handles advertising for the hun... However the prices change, the wait list is constantly growing, and since so many people on this board are in contact with cybercat on a weekly basis it is much easier to get the perspective from fellow webmasters who have bought ads recently and can tell you details of what package they got and how much traffic they received, rather than submit a formal sales inquiry to cybercat (possibly wasting their time if you are just curious and not serious about buying a spot right away), and waiting a few days for a reply.

Why dont you email cybercat and find out yourself you fucking idiot?

o thats right you cant afford it and you are just blowing smoke as usual.

go toss on your clogs fucking loser.

how is your dandruff you gallery whore?

I've had a banner on the hun for years now and with all rebills and upsells considered I'm making a tidy profit :thumbsup

The banner costs $1,350 per month

My WorldSex text link costs $2,000 per month

You gotta work the upsells to make it work though.

i think that you should all....
