In my PTR program I have set up these ref earnings:

Level 1 - 16%
Level 2 - 10%
Level 3 - 5%
Level 4 - 5%
Level 5 - 3%
Level 6 - 3%

I want to make a good and honest PTR site.. smile.gif

I will sell 4c mails, 5c, 8c, more..

But do you think someone will buy ads on the site??

The ad prize for a 4c email to 100 members will also be: 5.68$
The ad prize fpr a 4c email to 1000 members will also be: 56.80$
And 10 000 members... 568.00$ Too much?? Allyousubmitters has email to all
30 000 members for just 40$ !!??

Do you think someone will buy ads from me? 100 emails, maybe 1000... Is my ref earnings too high? I want pleasured members and I want them to be pleasure with theirs ref earnings.. smile.gif

Can someone help me? biggrin.gif


Thanks for all responding!!

I think you can get just as good results with 1 cent emails. No one will pay $5 for 100 ads. If you make it 1 cent you could sell more e-mails. There used to be an ad calulater to figure in ref % to your price. You should also calculate in paypal or other processing charge- hosting ect. Whatever, you do keep your prices sustainable and just not be able to pay members.

This is good advice smile.gif

Even half-cent and quarter-cent ads are still popular as meny people realise they don't have much chance of gettign paif at unsustainable priced programs, and sustainably priced high value ads (like you're talking about) are just too expensive for advertisers.

Yes, that's a good idea, I have thinked about it myself, but I don't know... I think it is to low.. I mean.. If I have 1c mails, I need to open 100 mails before I get 1 dollar... and you need 2$ to buy an Ice Cream... how long time will it take to open 100 mails?? That's long time for me.. :/

allyousubmitters have 5c mails, and as I see they pay their members too, the prizes are actually too low... but I think they pay...how? I don't know...

If I take 1c mails, do you think I will get many members?
Maybe I should try 2c or 3c?

I think that I will need to underprize like all the other programs, do you think that too? If I have to, where should I get the money from?

In facts:
I want a good, honest PTR program, I want people to click on links and know that they get paid from me, I want to pay out just some hours after the payment is requested if I am home ( want to have money ready also ).. I want to pay 3c, maybe 4c and more per click, want lot's of ads and quite good ref earnings... smile.gif

Maybe my PTR program can be difficult to make hehe smile.gif

2c is to low for me, 3c is great.. smile.gif

It will also cost 4.26$ to send a 3c mail to 100 members and 42.6 to send to 1000... This is too much right?

2c to hundred = 2.84 - 2c to 1000 = 28.4
1c to hundred = 1.42 - 1c to 1000 = 14.2

Yes, looks like 1c is the best one for the advertisers smile.gif

I am a little confused about what I am going to do now, pleas tell me what you think people! smile.gif
Will someone buy 100 ads for 42.6? Would you? wink.gif

Of course not, but you must know that half members do not click on ad. That is why are prices lower, but....it's not good when is to low.
two4one
is your site Ad Only???

if yes :: then try to less your prices verymuch

if no :: then 1c is the best for you.
mypaidmail
it is almost impossible to find an advertiser who is willing to pay you $2 for 100 PTR visits.

High value emails always attract newbies coz they want to earn as much as they can in as little time as possible. But,what the truth is,it just doesn't work that way.

Good part of high email value programs:
- Attract people quick
- Get sponsors quick (if you sell them underprice.)

Bad party:
- If you try to be honest and charge $30 for 3C to 1,000 then,guess what? No sponsors at all.
- If you sell AD underprice which probobly will be the only thing you choose to do,you will not be able to pay them all.


Just my 2Cents.

Of course,low value emails are hard to attract members. With little member base,you are hardly getting sponsors as well. sad.gif

Start by dropping the 6th level and ending with the 5th
And your ref earnings to something like especially if you want higher ads. find other sources of revenue to bring in money for your site.

Level 1- 5
Level 2- 3
Level 3- 2
Level 4- 1
Level 5- 1
