No offense intended here TB, but you came here asking for assistance. You're getting help from some of the best in the free site/link list game. And frankly, you're pretty much arguing some of their very valid points.

I DO check whois on submissions...and I DO decline based on false whois info. You have to realize how many cheaters and scammers there are in this biz. We don't know you...nor do we know you're not one of the cheats. Believe us, UW and I are not the only ones that check whois info. Many of the large link sites do. This topic has come up over and over on this board. Do yourself a favor...search for whois on this board. Perhaps, that will convince you that no one here is just yankin your chain for fun.

Fake whois info is an instant decline. In many cases, some link sites will actually blacklist for fake whois info.

As to your sales...frankly, your numbers are too low to really know for sure yet. Hell, I'm off to a 1:8000 start to the week right now. Not normal for me, but it happens. Hopefully, within a couple days it will pick up again...and normalize those numbers.

To some extent, traffic is as important as tweaking your sales approach. You want to get listed everywhere you submit...or damn close to it! I'm happy to say my sites are accepted at every one of the sites I submit too. Yes, 100% acceptance...and yes, it took me a long time to get to that level.

I know you're frustrated that you haven't made any sales yet. This biz is not an easy...those days are long gone. But, if you start accepting the good advice you're getting and adapting...perhaps...just maybe your traffic flows will increase. Perhaps, you'll start sending 5k clicks a week to sponsors...or 5k a day...at that point, you'll be able to much better tweak your sales approach.

Right now, you need to get listed and get traffic. Please, try to accept the solid advice you're getting here instead of justifying your current methods which obviously aren't working for you.

But, that's just my humble opinion of course

With all due respect MrYum,
You have a reference point on me.
So you believe the address is fake.
No reference point, no discussion.
Checking the whois to find that the cheater listed a "real" fake address puts you in the same jeopardy.
And lets face it are your really gonna travel to Mother Russia to see if the address is really "real" ??

This discussion over fake and real whois addresses is moot and honestly a waste of time because it is too easily by-passed.

As well I am not in-validating the good advice given, please re-read my prior posts.
All of the helpful pointers were duly noted and shall be incorporated.

Okay...fair enough TB. You can continue to ignore all the folks telling the whois issue is real...and keep waiting for those sales you were 'promised' to start raining from the sky.

Oh, and trust me...I always read an entire thread before responding. But, you just seemed to be either missing or choosing to ignore a very important piece of advice. Which from your response to me, it appears you will continue to do so...as you have decided it's moot and a waste of time.

Given that fact, this thread has become of waste of my valuable time. Best of luck to you mate...you're going to need it.
