Why is campaign rates dipping?

[gentlemand]

I feel like the reason could be related to how many people are coming onto the forums recently. Even campaigns paying $30 a week (like the one I previously left) are getting applications, and campaign managers accept pretty much anyone who has two brain cells and can type readable English. I'm happy to be paid at all for posting, but it is a bit disappointing that payrates for some campaigns have fallen below how much they were even a year prior.

Let's see what pans out with the merit situation. It may either peter out or become a very powerful tool to sift through the dreck out there. Even if you're a certain rank, you may not be considered without enough merit.

There've always been tons of people applying. Managers will be able to be more selective and that may reflect in better pay rates for people who are accepted.

I'm a bit disappointed with the merit situation as of right now, but I understand probably improve in the future. Half the campaigns in the Services section of the forum don't use Merit as some sort of criterion to accept posters at all, and some sections of the forums have very little use of merit at all like the Mining sections (and there's people out there that aren't aware what Merit is at all!). Merit was a great idea, I just wonder whether or not it'll actually succeed or if it'll flop.

In its present state I'm leaning towards flop. It seems to have really slowed down. If they make it sharper and easier then perhaps it'll take off. I don't know how much smerit noobs have, but I assume it's little or none and I dunno how bothered people overloaded with it can be to hand it out.

Still, early days as you say. The best campaigns will become ever choosier as people pile in.

I AM HOPE THAT THEY WENT DOWN.

At least, this will keep the shitposting down for a while, and i am sure that all those phillipinos & co are going to stop shitposting, because $0,50 per post is not profitable for them anymore.

LONG LIFE THIS DIP.

The btc prices are down yet the rates of the campaign have not increased or the new campaign if any which comes up in btc payment are not being revised rates. Also according to me this is the right time for people waiting to launch their coins to do the different campaign as the rates of btc are less so they have to spend less on promotional/marketing activities.

I think the rate in campaign is based only in the budget of one project, the manager will divided it to make it run for 4 weeks or more, for me those rate is fair enough we are here to help and not to gain much higher income than the project we promote. We should be thankful that there are developer continue to launch new project and campaign which we able to join and got paid.

May be because again Bitcoin price is kept increasing in the market and the values seems to be high when compared to previous payouts. So may be because of this they are reducing the rates.

This would be a reason. Another main reason would be the price increase. The payout started dipping from November 2017. The reason was, the bitcoin price kept increasing. Though the payout was less, users were able to meet enough amount as BTC price kept increasing. The payout was still reduced hoping the price would go up more. But unfortunately the correction caused huge dip in all altcoins' price. But the payout did not get changed as everyone hopes that the price would reach $20 very soon.

I'm assuming the same thing that most manager do have that kind of mentality where they do think that price of bitcoin would easily recover again which would making btc rates would really stay low since they do have those assumptions.I agree that most of them are adjusting and do basing already on dollar value which means no matter how bitcoins price would tend to rise up it doesn't really matter since they can base anytime on fiat value.

This and the campaign they handle could be a long one so they won't have to change the pay rates. There's always a reason behind to it maybe they have a low budget and want to advertise for a couple of months. It's an effective way to advertise because paying higher would just end the campaign faster and not everyone have the same post quality.

We should just be thankful that there's still campaign that pays a decent amount because afaik the pay rates 2 years ago are lower than this.

Absolutely right.Inspite of increasing prices its normal to have these kind of adjustment and most people cant really just accept the thing since they do like to see an improving rates as the years goes by which we do know its an impossible thing to happen yet companies or corporations wont really able to sustain to pay up huge rates for longer periods.Its normal for them to think off on longer exposure that's why they do really make adjustments on which people should really expect on.
