Something is wrong I think.

Also, I think we are beginning to see a true softening of the economy. I have enough great, generic domains to be reasonably certain the traffic is slowing down.
panterrasbox said:I finally got some CJ ads put into the custom content on one of my domains. Though I was pretty excited about it at first, my Parked CTR dropped immediately from 110% average down to about 80%, and the affiliate ads have received only about 7% CTR with no sales, even though they are very specific to the domain. In summary, inserting the affiliate ads is having a counter-desired effect.
Anyone else have the same problem - or, net-overall positive results?

It is a single-click page. What I did was put several small buttons (each for a different affiliate) across the bottom of the page, and set them to launch in a new browser window upon "clickage"turner10 said:When you set up the banner did you select it to open up in a seperate window?

Yes, as a matter of fact. Interesting, what you learned.Seabass said:...Maybe your content was placed on a one-click lander?
Seabass said:I just watched the dvd last night from the 2007 Domain Roundtable, and Name Media made a presentation with some stats they have come up with by experimenting with domains and one thing they said about custom content that caught my attention is that it DOES NOT work if you put it on a domain with a one-click lander, meaning if you went to your domain and it was only ads and not a two-click lander and you put custom content on it, then you CTR would fall substantially. They did not go into detail how well it works on a two-click lander, but they definitely did not say anything negative about doing this.
Maybe your content was placed on a one-click lander?
Varon said:Seabass, I have custom content on 1 click landers and I have a 100% CTR. In fact I have all 1 click landers and my yesterdays overall CTR for my entire 1 click portfolio was around 92%. I'm not sure how namemedia could come up with such information. Very surprising.

It appears to me that traffic should be higher than it is for Jan. and Parked is paying out less than I would expect (but that is this TQ thing it appears).
Did you guys notice that this TQ thing has been "updated" each time when we should be seeing an upsurge making the most money? Meaning, end of summer rolling into fall they update the TQ around Oct. 10th. Then again right at the beginning of the year when things should be smoking hot.
Sleepys said:I always seem to get extremely low numbers when the stats at Parked are all messed up. Each of these past days that have had 100+ clicks on various names, after they take off the incorrect clicks, I am left with about half of my normal clicks and my EPC falls too. It seems that their system adds too many clicks, and then takes too many off...
Mobi Cheap said:Could be that the ad blocks on the sites they tested it on were significantly shorter (in terms of vertical pixel size) than the typical parked.com format, and the custom content was too prominent on the first screen thus taking away eyeballs from the ads.
Your stats look pretty impressive. Do you happen to remember what the original CTR values were before adding content?.

It seems that their system adds too many clicks, and then takes too many off. I have names that get clicks every day, but because on one of these days, it says 120 clicks, after that, it is adjusted to 0, even though it normally gets some clicks. I have noticed this disturbing trend other times they have stats problems like this. I get better and better CTR and earnings as days go on, but then eventually they have stats problems and things are cut in half for a few days and start over.
This is probably just a coincedence and I would like to blame the stats errors, but I have had some ridiculously horrible stats as of the last few days. This is also only for my names at Parked, other services are still improving from December's low points.
