So How's Everyone Doing With The New Max Cash?

Greenguy · 2004-08-03, 01:41 PM

Last pay period I was converting 1:400 - so far this pay period it's 1:773 - granted, it is only 2-1/2 days, but I think it's a cause for concern.

Also, how many of you redirected the old links to the new sites? I'm really surprised that they even gave people this option after the crappy results we all saw from ARS. Plus, it's hard to sell the surfer on looking at one site & then redirecting them to a site of a different name & quite possibly, a different niche.

I should also mention that I haven't gotten any links up yet to the new sites, but I will be getting them in there in the next week or so.

Max Who?

Cleo · 2004-08-03, 02:27 PM

Pretty much what Surfn said.

I just have a lot of old links up to them. I did just login and choose to redirect any traffic to their new sites. Not sure if this was a good idea but seeing as I don't make much money with them anyway I figure it couldn't hurt. At this time I don't plan on actively promoting their new stuff but maybe in the future I may decide to.

Linkster · 2004-08-03, 05:59 PM

Well - my conversions were a little worse than yours before - around 1:1000 but I sent them a good 75-80k a month.
So far this month with the classic sites Im 1:3600 with the same traffic - of course they've stopped the $2.95 trials so the sales Ive gotten so far are full monthly signups.
The new Diamond sites I just put up links to - Ill let you know in a few days - also started generating some traffic for them with free/tgp sites. Will have to see how the new price point for the trials on those work

added - at least when you redirect with them the For Women site doesnt redirect

- it stays going to the Classic site

Tommy · 2004-08-03, 08:06 PM

I avarage between 6 to 8 signups a day with them

I did 1 yesterday and have 0 today

Ms Naughty · 2004-08-03, 09:12 PM

My main complaint is that they've abandoned the alternate tours and reverted back to the really old, awful originals.

I mainly promote Just for Ladies, and when I started sending traffic to their fabulous alternate tour it doubled my signups. Now it's back to the dark, dingy, extremely 80s looking version, and I expect sales to halve.

The problem is, I suspect, that the alterntate tours had the $2.95 price on them. Still... how hard can it be to change a few psd files???

Okidoki · 2004-08-04, 07:24 AM

I have the same problem as Tommy. Signup ratio dropped hard with Karas Adult Playground. I doubt it is any usefull to keep promoting them for us.

Hi All !

I just wanted to extend an invitation for you to come over to the MC member board - many of these concerns have been voiced and answered in detail.

We realize changes can be a pain, but the biz model has changed over the years and it dictates these changes.

Feel free to hop on over - check out the concerns of others, check out some suggestions on how to make it all work, check out what other things are due out from MC, etc.

Thanks,

Aly

Greenguy · 2004-08-04, 09:09 AM

Hi Aly!

I hope you didn't take my thread as me "calling you out" as that was not my goal - LOL - you know I love ya

I just wanted to know whow others that hang around here are doing with the new set up. Like I said before, it's only been a couple of days, so no real decisions have been made yet on my end

AlyMC · 2004-08-04, 09:17 AM

Nope, nope, nope - not taken that way ! This is what these boards are for - to discuss stuff ! And you know I love ya right back : )

I hope the new Diamond sites do well for you : ) We have new tours for all 8 coming up soon, and we will be adding 3 more sites to the line up shortly - so if things don't work for ya right away, be sure to check back soon !!!

Tommy · 2004-08-04, 09:31 AM

Hey Pierre how are you

Greenguy · 2004-08-04, 09:42 AM

Oh fuck - I forgot to say hello to Pierre - LOL

Hello Pierre

Okidoki · 2004-08-04, 11:00 AM

Hi guys,
thanks for the welcome ;-)

Tommy, long time no talk.
Wanna restart our trades?

PK · 2004-08-04, 12:32 PM

It appears I'm in the same boat as alot of you. Kara's has always been a strong seller for me. I've gone from 1:120 in July to 1:218 as of today. Some of you may think that's not bad, but that means half the sales and at $35 a pop instead of the $42 I was getting (both bonuses every month). I tried the X Hardcore Porn diamond site in place of the Kara's ad and the ads for it are not as high pulling and the conversion was even worse. Revenue predictions with Maxcash for August are 25% of July's.

At this point I'm pretty disheartened with it all.

Good to see you positng again

As I said above they just don't convert for me the way they once did.

Greenguy · 2004-08-04, 01:47 PM

Hey PK

Man, we're drawing them out of the woodwork today

Greenguy · 2004-08-04, 04:06 PM

3-1/2 days into it & I've dropped to 1:2127

AlyMC · 2004-08-04, 04:11 PM

Send me an email - maybe you have accounts I don't know about ! LOL 'Cuz I am not showing you near that high ! And I'm showing individual sites - the old classic sites - converting as good as 1:178 for ya !

Aly

Greenguy · 2004-08-04, 05:39 PM

I am really confused - LOL

If I just go to the stats, I show 4 signups.

If I go to "referring" I show 8508 hits

If I go to "details" I show 3891 hits (using the "all together" options for the account names)

Does "referring" show 1st page hits & "details" show 2nd?

Linkster · 2004-08-04, 06:10 PM

After three days sending to the classic sites Im 1:4225 with primarily SE traffic - and thats not just one sale - just all of the sales averaged over all of the Classic sites
For Karas - 1:772 so far this month - last month 1:563

For the Diamond sites - so far 1:928 on one site
0 on the rest

Overall 1:3877 for all sites this month so far
Last month 1:1006 overall

I'm giving it a few more days to turn around although I don't think there's any heavy scrubbing or any other anomolies going on right now based on other sponsors sales.

oops - almost forgot too - Hiya Pierre and PK

AlyMC · 2004-08-05, 09:42 AM

GreenGuy - the referring stats show incoming hist for the last 7 days - each new day, the oldest day falls off.

So that, right now, is including July hits as well. Right now you have 4308 hits for August. We count first page unique ONLY.

Hope that helps : )

Greenguy · 2004-08-05, 09:51 AM

Ok - I get it now

Tommy · 2004-08-05, 10:54 AM

Okidoki, yes long time no talk.

No offence but I dont trade straight up like that anymore.
Your always welcome to send to the toplist.

If I ever go back to even trades you will be the first person I email

Hello Pk

ya know most programs would cut off their right nut to have their banners running on Persian Kitty, World Sex, Tommys Bookmarks, Link O Rama and lets not forget Linkster who is a Search Engine genius and max cash is just throwing that away

bret · 2004-08-05, 11:55 AM

anytime i see a turn-around like that, i drop the sponsor down to a very low percentage of my advertising traffic. I sill send some traffic, incase they do start to sell again. but with all the sponsor programs out there, why should i throw my money away on a program that is just not converting.

and with this widespread consensus i would say it's time to move traffic elsewhere.
