I tried using the new JavaScript code, and http://validator.w3.org complained that there is no "data-aa" attribute for the script element. Do you think you could provide valid XHTML 1.1 option?

Yes, please see the newer version of affiliate code. Should be xhtml 1.1 compliant Smiley
882  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Anonymous Ads - bitcoin advertising network on: July 15, 2012, 10:39:54 PM
New feature 1: Anonymous Ads shows ads only on languages accepted by visitor's browser. If there is no such ad then "Your ad here" link will be displayed (translated to the visitor's language). That link points to affiliate's page thus allowing to buy ads from particular affiliate.

New feature 2: New version of affiliate code. It works faster and reduces load on AA server. Please use it.

Current AA status: AA server is under heavy load, the following effects are possible:
1. Reduced availability and responsiveness of the main site.
2. Reduced availability and responsiveness of ad server for affiliates with old code.
3. Delayed bitcoin transaction (for both: reception and withdrawal).
4. Delayed (and thus distorted) statistics.

If you are AA's affiliate, you can help by updating affiliate code on your sites.

Thanks in advance and sorry for inconvenience.

I see so that only affects image links? Because I do accept first party and session cookies.

Yes, it affects only image links (since they are static, but should redirect to different locations based on the image shown).

Links for text ads don't depend on cookies as they are generated on the server side.
884  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Anonymous Ads - bitcoin advertising network on: July 11, 2012, 01:26:21 AM
However I think I do block third-party cookies, if that makes a difference.

Well, then it explains everything. When your browser requests an image (http://anonymousads.com/userbar/1 in this case), the server chooses the image and sends the cookie to your browser.. So when you click the link, it knows what image has been shown to you and how to redirect you to the advertiser's site. If your browser doesn't accept cookies, this mechanism wouldn't work and you get redirected to the list of ads to choose the one you need manually.

Spelling error: "Sorry, couldn't determine redirection link (your browser ingored a cookie?). Please select the ad from the list."

typo fixed, thanks..

And BTW that error showed when I clicked your sig link.

Strange... does your browser accept cookies? is there a cookie named "ad_unit_1" for site "anonymousads.com"? (if yes, could you please send me its content?)

Thanks!

Just wondering: what's with the new huge fonts in the text ads? Bug or new "feature"?

This is just a new version of twitter bootstrap... Is it bad?
Well, it seems much bigger so the longest ads don't fit in the allocated space anymore. It also tends to mismatch the usual smaller font of websites or of other ad networks... Doesn't really look good IMO (and doesn't match the preview, too):


Thank you for your feedback! I think I fixed the font size.

888  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Advertising on Twitter - CPM less than .001btc - FeedZeBirds.com on: June 25, 2012, 08:50:51 PM
I spent all day today making charts for FeedZeBirds. I hope these are helpful to advertisers.

http://www.feedzebirds.com/beaks-fed?avg=7
http://www.feedzebirds.com/bitcoin-paid?avg=7
http://www.feedzebirds.com/time-target

The first two demonstrate that advertising on FZB has become more cost effective recently. Impressions per day (Beaks Fed) has increased, while cost has decreased.

The third chart provides some data on campaign performance. So far the tipping point for reaching an audience of 100k cost effectively is a CPM of roughly 0.05btc.

EDIT:

I lied. I also made some charts for Coinapult. https://coinapult.com/stats

Great charts!

But I am a bit confused with the charts at http://feedzebirds.com/bitcoin-paid

What does the vertical axis mean? It shows weird numbers about 70 for day, about 10 for 7 days average and about 3 for 30 days average...  Could you please explain?

You can do either Smiley

If you would like to have the stones sent to you please PM me and I can send you additional information.

If you are interested in selling the shares back, also let me know and I will expedite the transition to the new system since it looks like things are fairly stable now.


I am looking forward for this transition to happen Smiley

So exactly how much money do you have to put in to have a chance to get random refererals? I know there's a chance with 0.1 btc, but I'm talking realisticly.

I don't know.

The pyramid is about 10 months old, there are about 2576 members in it (including "fake" ones) that deposited 534 btc in total.

So deposit of 5.34 btc should give about 1% chance of becoming a sponsor of new non-invited member. I am not sure how many members were not invited, I don't have such statistics. So in the best case if we assume linear growth of members, deposit of 5 btc would give a new referral every ~2 weeks. The real case could be 10-100 times worse, I just don't have the stats, sorry.

Update: this probability will be declining in time as new members deposit their bitcoins.

PS: I hope I didn't make mistake in my calculations Smiley

I think you should follow the method of the Bitcoin(card) Fund - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=86083.0 - but also add a GLBSE way to invest.

+1

I don't have much money, but I'd like to buy some GLBSE shares of this venture, please let us know when/if you issue them Smiley
892  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: GLBSE - request for next features on: June 18, 2012, 03:58:09 PM
If GLBSE wants to limit IPO's to verified individuals only, it's their prerogative. However, if they do that then they open the door for a competitor. On the flip side, if they do not verify individuals then they risk losing confidence.

There is no right or wrong here. It's totally GLBSE's preference.

Just let the users to filter out unverified shares

LOOK AT THE WITHDRAWL DATE!!!!!: 2012-06-06 21:35:30

So what's wrong with the withdrawal date and what's the # of withdrawal that is wrong?

So am I gonna get my bitcon address changed?

No, sorry. There is no user authentication, the system is designed to be read only. As said in rules, your withdrawal address is permanent.

LOOK AT THE WITHDRAWL DATE!!!!!: 2012-06-06 21:35:30

Wow.. Server time is 1 month ahead of real time! Thanks for pointing it out. Have no idea how (and when) it happened. I will look closer at the issue.


Update: oh, no, it is fine.. 06 is June.. and it is June now, isn't it? I just need to get some sleep Smiley

So what's wrong with the withdrawal date and what's the # of withdrawal that is wrong?
895  Economy / Investor-based games / Re: Bitcoin Pyramid [Beta] - the oldest working pyramid? on: June 14, 2012, 09:25:43 PM
I'm pretty positive it's me.. I have it on my profile awhile back.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=37577

LOOK AT THE WITHDRAWL DATE!!!!!: 2012-06-06 21:35:30

Oh, I am sorry, it seems I didn't answer your question completely.

According to pyramid stats, only 0.06962500 btc has been withdrawn for member #476, no withdrawals were made on the 16th for #476.

Keylogger installed on your machine wouldn't  make it easier to withdraw funds from bitcoinpyramid (since bitcoinpyramid doesn't deal with any passwords or manual withdrawals). But it could allow attacker to modify your profile at bitcointalk.

I agree with N.Olmos, you probably are looking a wrong membership account. If you believe something went wrong, please provide correct member id (or your withdrawal address) and id of suspicious transaction. The system is fully transparent so if something goes wrong, most likely we can easily figure it out. All withdrawals are logged here: http://bitcoinpyramid.com/withdrawals.


Why do you think that "someone withdrew .13 btc on the 16th." (how do you know that?).
896  Economy / Investor-based games / Re: Bitcoin Pyramid [Beta] - the oldest working pyramid? on: June 14, 2012, 06:59:53 PM
how to log back in to withdraw? Just found out I'm member 476 from my sig. but... someone withdrew .13 btc on the 16th. I haven't touched bitcoin forever. Though I did start my mining last week. Was I keylogged or fished?


Sorry, there is no way to log in.

Withdrawals and all other outgoing payments are done automatically when member's balance hits the threshold of 0.021 btc. Withdrawal fee is 0.001 btc per withdrawal. (see http://bitcoinpyramid.com/rules)

If you know your withdrawal address, you can use http://bitcoinpyramid.com/search to find your member page.

898  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Anonymous Ads. Choose sites to advertise, hurry up while it's ridiculously cheap on: June 08, 2012, 04:37:11 PM
I can't really pretend I know how much my site should be weighted, particularly since I'm quite new to this system, but I think I can make fairly good guesses at whether or not it should be weighted higher or lower compared to the sites I mentioned previously. Will send a few details via PM tomorrow (or maybe I should wait a bit more - have all those sites already be manually weighted in the first place ?).

Yes, all sites with positive weight have been weighted. Please let me know your thoughts, I appreciate any help in evaluating them ) Thanks!
899  Economy / Marketplace / Re: Anonymous Ads. Advertise & Monetize. How much is the ad space at your web site? on: June 08, 2012, 03:31:48 PM
I will evaluate each site manually and assign a weight to it. Some of the bootstrap money will be distributed between affiliates of submitted sites with respect to this weight and affiliate's share of the site (the share is estimated automatically).
How often is this weight reevaluated ? Some sites seem to have insanely high weights compared to their amount of visits and clicks, for instance: http://anonymousads.com/affiliate/439 and http://anonymousads.com/affiliate/423 vs http://anonymousads.com/affiliate/447

Thanks for your question!

Weight is not directly related to amount of clicks or impressions (as all this data can be faked).

Weight represents the relative value of site from my point of view (I can use various tools to estimate it or do it subjectively).

It can't be 100% fair, but it is not intended to be the main source of income for affiliates.

Reevaluation happens time to time manually, it is not automated yet. If you feel that your site is undervalued in comparison with others - please send me a private message with your arguments and desired weight value.

Btw, affiliates mentioned by you got registered recently and didn't have enough time to generate many unique clicks and impressions, moreover amount of non-unique impressions is about 6 times higher than amount of unique impressions shown on affiliate's page.

Hi, I tried running an ad and have a small problem.  The end of my url ends in a number so that I can track an ad's performance.  This number is being appended so that instead of getting e.g. 34 I'm getting clicks from 341, 3413, etc.  This is messing up my performance tools and I'll have a harder time determining whether to continue using your service.

Hi, thanks for your feedback!

Yes, there is a feature: ad's url is being appended with bitcoin address that corresponds to reward address of affiliate who brought a visit to you.

I am not sure how your performance tool works. If it works for any url of your site, it will show performance of each affiliate separately and you may choose whom to reward to get more impressions. If it takes some id in url, then you could probably append your ad link with "#", "?" or "&" to separate it from the bitcoin address which is being added by AA.

I should have made this behavior optional, but it is not yet. Sorry for inconvenience, I will fix it in near future.
