Title: Daily Bitcoins - New advertising type with efficiency superior to banner ads!
Post by: giantdragon on July 31, 2013, 04:05:12 PM
We are proud to announce major update on Daily Bitcoins (http://dailybitcoins.org)!

Tired of low efficiency of the banner ads? We offer brand-new advertising model that provides excellent conversion rates which have been already proved on promotion of my another service (Peerbet).
Now you can start own voucher campaign on Daily Bitcoins and distribute vouchers with free credits to our users. Even small amount of 0.0001 BTC free credits is rather enough to force the users to pay attention to your service and with high probability spend their own funds on it!

It won't take much time to setup voucher campaign on Daily Bitcoins. Read this tutorial (http://localhost/dailybitcoins2/vouchers-help.php) for more details.

Another improvements have been made:
  • You can request prizes directly on Peerbet and Inputs.io accounts,
  • You can set default address to receive prizes,
  • Voucher codes that you win now being saved in the profile,
  • SSL.

Your link to the tutorial is broken.

I think this is a very innovative idea, and is perfect for Bitcoin. That said, I have some critiques.

  • Proofreading. A lot of the English is generally low-quality. There are free proofreading services offered on these forums; you should give them a try.
  • Voucher value does not seem to be count towards the Limit, even though the advertiser is also paying for those. This should be explicitly stated to prevent confusion.
  • Est. giveaways per day: 236 would look better as Est. 236 giveaways per day.
  • Currently, vouchers play second fiddle to the prize, even though they are often worth more than the prize. Perhaps vouchers could increase in prominence by being displayed before the prize is collected. This also persuades advertisers to give larger vouchers, because then they'll have a greater click-through rate.

I contacted you as you did proofreading last time.

Voucher value does not seem to be count towards the Limit, even though the advertiser is also paying for those. This should be explicitly stated to prevent confusion.
This is already stated in tutorial (http://dailybitcoins.org/vouchers-help.php), but if it is not clear I can add also notice to the page where you create campaign.

Currently, vouchers play second fiddle to the prize, even though they are often worth more than the prize. Perhaps vouchers could increase in prominence by being displayed before the prize is collected. This also persuades advertisers to give larger vouchers, because then they'll have a greater click-through rate.
If we will display which voucher the user have won before he will take it (the same way as we do now for prizes), he will unlikely to take small vouchers at all.

Is the site having problems?  I put in my address, typed the captcha, clicked send and I get a yellow box that says "Please wait a while..." which never goes away.

You need to refresh JavaScript (just press F5). Also make sure you have disabled ad-block.

After adding new payment methods to payments script, an unexpected bug appeared that caused marking pending payments as processed while they were not actually sent.
Only Bitcoin payments for August 2/3 affected, Peerbet and Inputs.io were sent normally. This bug was fixed now and I hope never occurs again.

Please sorry for inconvenience. If you remember approximate amount you expected to receive on August 2/3, write it to me and I will send it.

My user account is no longer working on both your services that I use (Peerbet and DailyBitcoins). Is this something you're working on or do I need to create a new account?

@giantdragon
great job with your website, I love it!

Although, I do have 2 remarks and 1 request:

- is there possible to have an option to "Send delayed payments to PeerBet Account" aditionally to "Execute delayed payments" for those who change their mind and decide to transfer wallet winning to Peerbet

- is there a way to make verification integrity of the address to avoid sending funds to aleatory text in the clipboard when doing the paste in the address text?

And here is the request I have (due to my mistake I admit), to unblock the funds from some wrong clipboard text I paste in, and somehow send it to me?
I have:
- 0.00005 in "our dtheycl" address
- 0.00001 in "2   Kiosk 3   Game Center" address

Many users don't create accounts on Daily Bitcoins, so this feature could be potentially abused (i.e. hacker could steal funds only knowing Bitcoin address on which Bitcoins were requested).

is there a way to make verification integrity of the address to avoid sending funds to aleatory text in the clipboard when doing the paste in the address text?
I don't run bitcoind on the VPS because it slowdown the server, so it is not possible now.

Send me PM with new address and I will fix.

Now you can generate redeemable voucher codes to sell or transfer funds from your advertiser's account.

I keep getting "disable ad blocker" after I submit my address and captcha, but the ad blocker is disabled on my computer/browser. I wasn't having these issues earlier today when I successfully sent in my wallet address and captcha for the 0.00001 BTC. It was only later today (1 hour ago) I received the "disable ad blocker to request your prize" message. The bitcoin prize was up to 0.0001 at that time. I tried a second time after that a few minutes later, the same message pops up. Since Daily Bitcoins was working earlier today, and I don't have the ad blocker enabled...this may be something on Daily Bitcoin's end (buggy?).

Anyone else having similar issues?

Make sure you see all banners on appropriate places fully loaded. Advertising networks sometimes go offline or performing too slow...
