[ANN] Mellow Ads - simple, bitcoin advertising. Network/CPM/CPC. Free faucet!

Why do I get only ~0.0013 BTC per day with 10k unique views per day ( 2k per ad )?

Payouts are not that good I've noticed, either the network pool total is really small or admin get's a huge chunk from fees

It's a combination of pool total and view total. The main couple sites constitute like 70% of the views, so they are also getting the majority of the pay.

I replied to your email about this. I can see 6 payments for your ad spaces for today and the same for yesterday too.
You should be able to see these on your Transactions list, and your account balance should have increased.
Let me know if you can't see them still, for some reason.

The network pool is quite small, still around 0.11 BTC per day. We take 10% of that as we've been clear about from the start, and the rest is divided up between the publishers.
Once we get CPM/CPC up and running we will be doing a big push to try to attract more, bigger advertisers - this should hopefully benefit the network pool too.
The up side is (as I've said before) it is amazing value for money for advertisers at the moment!

in your site all links are fixed!(  like adbit.co) and publishers can cheating!  they can use auto clicker/script to make fake clicks!

Hi! Checking out mellow ads too

My ref code is  9E373D99A262

Not sure what the code does but if everyone is sharing ref code I share it too! OK probably not a good logic...

The site looks interesting.   Currently interested in using it as a publisher, although from time to time I also advertise on various sites, and probably will at mellow at some point if all goes well.

Couple questions, though:

What are the exact rules?  How many ads per page?  Can have two ads of the same size in the same page? (for example, two 234x60 ad units / blocks?)

Limit is 5 ad and you can have more than 5, but only 5 with the most views will be paid

Can't wait

Thanks. Yeah I think I saw the thing about the 5 ads limit.  But it does not say if I can show two ads of
the same size. For example, two 234x60 ad units on same page (not the same pasted twice but actually two different ad zones)

I think that you can do it, I saw it on many sites..

You can. You can even do all 5 of the same size if you want -- doesn't matter.

publishers earning has doubled probably because of the 5 limit ads implementation.

POST EDITED:
It was some bug in the site I PM'ed the admin.

Oh yes, I noticed this too..

This is correct, and also the network advertiser pool has increased now to over 0.3 BTC per day!
(Oh, and we have banned quite a few more publishers who were trying to scam the system )

Awesome to see the advertiser pool increasing! And that publishers are being kicked for wrongdoing. Though I will say it's exploitable (in that you can target specific publishers and get them banned to cut out competition and increase personal earnings)...

I wants to collect some info before publishing Mellow ads to my faucets
How much is the average earning now for per click earned by the Faucet owners

Like if the spot generates 100 clicks a day. What will be his day earning ?

CPC isn't implemented right now so 100000 clicks or 0 clicks are treated the same. And the earnings are based on:

Total income / (your views/total views), so giving an approximation, even as someone with the data of the last payments, simply isn't feasible. And by the very nature of joining the network and publishing, you are already diluting your earnings (i.e., let's say there were 1000 views and it paid 1 BTC per 1k views. Now you join with your 1000 views. Each 1k views is now only worth 0.5 BTC, as you've diluted it by 50%). So asking for numbers like this would require in-depth statistical analyses on an ongoing basis. Nobody is going to do that.

I'll be using this very shortly and will give feedback.
