Autosurfs 12by12Daily and 13DailyPro announce SLIGHT modifications to their payout terms

Now it's quite possible that things are exactly as they seem! On the other hand perhaps not!

THE FACTS:

12by12Daily: After getting behind in both surfing payouts AND referral commissions, Dave Cannard put out a message of explanation that this was NOT a change of terms merely a reaffirmation that there is some leeway in the terms and they are NOT a guarantee. Nevertheless, the wording has been changed to 'on or about' 7 working days. As an outcome of this situation, the account maximum has been increased to $12k from $6K. Less than 24 hours after that, it is now possible to have 3 upgrades rather than 2....

13DailyPro: Used to pay within 5 working days. They would make payment on Friday for those spends that became due Saturday and Sunday. They gave a whole bunch of justification why they now will pay over 7 days and actually make payments of the week-ends.

OUR TAKE:
We are naturally suspicious! Those FACTS can and will be interpreted by many in many ways. We briefly skimmed various forums today and very few are raising alarm bells. However, 1 + 1 usually equals 2, even in the wacky world of Pay4Surf. Delayed payouts plus two quick modifications that would cause an influx of NEW cash spell POTENTIAL cashflow problems to us. 12by12Daily has been growing but perhaps not quickly enough to supply sufficient income to cover liabilities... Just a thought!

The same interpretation could be made for 13DailyPro. They would have to have enough excess cash on Friday to pay 3 days. On the other hand, it makes good sense to pay through the week-end to prevent backlogs.

THE STATS
As always, our job here is to arm you with up-to-date information so that you can make GOOD business decisions. In that vein, here is the latest Alexa data for 12by12Daily and 13DailyPro



You can see that BOTH 12by12 and 13DP seem quite healthy as far as traffic growth over the last month is concerned so maybe we are just being overly sensitive.

THE NEWCOMER
You will have noticed that we have added a 3rd program: AdSurfDaily to these stats! This is a relatively new program that is using the new model where a percentage of daily spends are calculated at midnight each day and distributed pro-rata to the previous day's surfers based on the number of ad units that they currently hold. Payments are made on each ad unit until 150% of the spend has been paid out. As you can see from the chart above, they came out of nowhere and have made tremendous inroads in their first month......

DON'T UPGRADE TO IE7 UNTIL YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT IT!!!

I don't usually post my gripes here, but, once again, Microsoft has proven how monumentally arrogant and stupid they are....

For a little while, my (legal) XP OS has been cajoling me to 'upgrade' to IE7. Since I had already done this on my laptop and wanted at least one machine with IE6, I kept telling it 'NO'. Well, two days ago, in spite of my denials, it somehow upgraded me anyway?!? (And it doesn't even know it, since Windows Update is STILL asking me to upgrade!!!!).

When visiting one of my web pages, a member noticed that the Link Protection feature was no longer working. We spent a few hours checking our code before we finally discovered that Microsoft, in its infinite wisdom decided to disable the 'window.status' javascript function (along with a few others) in IE7. This feature was used EXTENSIVELY throughout our sites to protect our own and our affiliates links from prying eyes. Although there IS still a work-around for this new vulnerability, it will be some time (and a lot of re-coding) before we can fully implement it.

Who knows what else the mighty Microsoft has decided to mess with...

Unfortunately for both you and ourselves, Microsoft's Internet Explorer is still by far the most prevalent web browser and is likely to remain so for the foreseeable future. Therefore, we have no choice but to grin and bear it.

Yes, we admit that we have been neglecting our Blogging duties as we frantically try to get everything ready for the official launch of the NetJunkie Club on December 1st.

Google Ads, CBAdsGenie, BidVertiser, Yahoo Ads - We've examined them all and tried MOST of them. You probably have too.


The truth is: We ALL need places to advertise! We also want it to be effective and not cost us an arm and a leg. These ads are expensive BECAUSE THEY WORK....

No matter what type of marketing method you are using to develop an income on the Internet, sooner or later, you HAVE to do some sort of advertising. Traditionally, email was the best way to go. Nowadays, for a variety of reasons (spam, cost, undeliverables, ISP filters inter alia), this no longer works as it once did!

Banner Advertising has also had its hayday, and although there is still a place for it in a balanced ad campaign you also need more tools in your arsenal. Text ads, graphic ads, popunders, floating ads all have their value but it's hard to find a place where they are all together. In addition, what's needed is a way to get this type of advertising working for you without having to spend a fortune to get it.

Once again, NetJunkie Club comes to your rescue:

Today, we announce the launch of AdShow by NetJunkie, your TOTAL advertising solution!
We have a wide variety of ad types and can accomodate all budgets. Even those of you who have NO budget at all can still take advantage since in addition to purchasing banner, text, floating ads or popunders, you can also use our exchange feature to get them FREE.

What makes our Ad Exchange different to almost any other is the fact that we have our entire network of sites to display YOUR ads. It is not simply other members sites (though that can be great too). The name of the game is 'targetted advertising' and we can deliver that in spades. All of our sites and most of those of our members are all aimed at denizens of the HYIP, autosurf and Internet Marketing arenas, so you KNOW that the right people are seeing your messages!

A SPECIAL BONUS FOR NetJunkie Club blog readers.
If you join our ad exchange, we will double our usual sign-up bonus. If you decide to upgrade your account in any way either to improve your exchange ratio OR to buy impressions, we will DOUBLE the value of your purchase. In either case, simply send your AdShow ID and details of your sign-up and/or purchase to admin@netjunkieclub.com with the title: "AdShow Bonus Offer".
This offer will remain valid until November 15, 2006.
