I hope you dont think these are dumb questions and I hope someone can help me out here. I will be back later to see if anyone has replied, thanks in advance!

1.What exactly are banner impressions and are they one of the best ways to advertise? Have you had good luck with them?

2.When looking at redemption pages it shows example:(Quote from a program)
10,000 Banner Impressions. The actual redemption amount is $5.00. But you must have it in earnings.
Spend Cash $ 35



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Paid mail to 4000. The actual redemption amount is $24.00. But you must have it in earnings.
Spend Cash $ 54

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Points Email To All. The actual redemption amount is $25.00. But you must have it in earnings.
Spend Cash $ 55

Can you please explain spend cash to me? Is that the amount of money you need to pay the WM? I am sorry, there are things I still dont quite understand and I would like to learn everything I can before advertising with programs.
Thanks so much!

the only thing I can help ya with are the banner impressions....when you got to the sites and you see the pictures at the top of the page for other sites--THOSE are banner impressions someone paid (or won or were given) them....I won 1,000 banner impressions from one site (used it for Jessica's Paid Links) and got 10 new referrals from it. Was given 10,000 from another site (used that one for Z-Cash) and got 4 new referrals.....so go figure LOL...I was tickled to death anway. If ya read some of the posts in here...most say to just do the ads...I'M not sure on that cash thing either!! I've been haunting the forums...I feel sorta silly asking too but they are a GOOD and VERY helpful bunch...if they can help they will.

Believe or not, most of the sites I've joined have been from banner impressions...if the banner doesn't catch my eye, I won't click it...that's how I found Jessica's back in early February 2003

Sorry I couldn't be more help....I'll check back too...maybe I can get some help too

2. Bonus not valid to buy impressions
$5 in earnings plus $30 bonus = $35 that
explain the incongruence not sure

hey mommymiki!
I will use one the the examples to explain to you,


Paid mail to 4000. The actual redemption amount is $24.00. But you must have it in earnings.
Spend Cash $ 54


the spend cash 54 dollars is the amount you have to have in earnings (including your direct earning, referral earning and sign up bonus) before you can redeem for that particular form of advertisement. For the above example, paid mail to 4000. The actual redemption amount of 24 dollars is the actual amount that is going to be deducted from your earnings. So if you have 54 dollars in earnings and you redeem this advertisment, you will have 30 dollars left.

I assume this redemption is from mike?

Thank you all very much for your help.
Yes, kingster147 this is a quote from Mikes. I had his window open when I needed an example.
