ADSDAQ glitch, shows someone else’s account
Today logging into my my ADSDAQ account I was shocked to see Weather Underground’s stats instead of my own. I am not sure what kind of glitch was that, but I was displayed WU’s account at first, after clicking another link inside the account, it refreshed the stats to my own stats. (click on image to see the screenshot)
When you login, it displays the stats for the day. I see that WU is doing great with ADSDAQ, making $432 a day. That translates to almost 13,000 a month! I am not sure if I have the right to display this image, but I have removed the stats for impressions served and WU’s CPM rate, leaving only the amount of money WU makes a day from ADSDAQ publisher program. That should be okay to display.
I had signed up with ADSDAQ 20+ days ago and I should say the performance has been just fine. Currently I am testing it with different CPM rates and trying to figure out the ideal CPM rate for my network sites that serve ADSDAQ ads (adesdesign.net and adesblog.com). I will blog about the performance of this publisher program once I test it for one full month at least. So stay tuned.
P.S I had informed ADSDAQ about this glitch so that they can correct it.
Update: ADSDAQ called me on my phone and inquired me about this glitch. They said they will make full investigation to find the source of the problem, so that it won’t happen again.
Update Oct 16, 2007: This problem has officially been corrected by ADSDAQ.
