99% of Traffic brokers are scam.

Putting all the hit bots aside, If the traffic was any good no one would be selling it.

Never bought AdEngage. All I know was that their payout was slow, and incredibly low so I didn't use them for promo on anything that had semi-decent traffic.

I've always seen a reporting issue as well from AdEngage, it shows i'm buying about 5000 hits per day on one campaign and the sponsor is only recording about 300 per hit. Go figure where those 4700 hits went...

Erm Google and similar search engines are actually traffic brokers.


How else do you think they earn most of their revenue?

You sure it's not the sponsor? I did a campaign last week and sent it through my tracking URL first before hitting the sponsor page. The numbers where pretty much the same with the sponsor stats and Adengage.

I bought some adengage traffic a year or two ago, was very poor quality, although I did get conversions. My best guess is you have to be super aggressive and get someone on the phone, filter out all of their bad "partners" from your purchases, which may be 80% of the traffic or more. It may be worth it if you comfortable micro-managing at that level.

Here's one example: http://friendspla.net

have them put a stat counter on the gallery for you. I code my galleries for them and if they want that it would not be a problem. Then they can see everything and save me the time from giving them a report as well.
