    keep my money

    I tried domainhop for 6 months with 3 names
    Only ever earned very small amounts on very small trafffic
    I could never figure out how to see the stats for more than the last 2 months
    So I never actually knew how much I had earned
    It was probably less than $50 for the 6 months
    So I moved those 3 names elsewhere and those same 3 names performed 10 times better, immediately
    I wrote to Domainhop and asked them politely to close my account and pay out any balance
    They did not reply
    I wrote politely again
    They did not reply
    No doubt their TOC says that I didn't reach the minimum amount
    They can keep my money
    It was cheap lesson
    They are probably only interested in high performing names
    I wish them well in that pursuit
    My other 500 names are performing very nicely at another very professional company
    Try them out and see if you can figure out the stats for more than the last 2 months
    I will never log on to them again

    Besites the impression based pay is ALWAYS lower then per click. I would not use them again myself. I use Gold Key.

    No, if you have and high performing names they will make your account inactive towards the end of the month and keep the money, then give you a BS reason only after you email them 10 times a day for 10 days.

    Re: keep my money

    I have tried them at various times. They do have fine looing parking pages. But results have never been good. And their stats pages are terrible. I, too, could never figure out how to see more than two months.

    Their source for PPC is their own search engine, Kanoodle, which never has enough popularity to generate high click prices.

    I used to allocate a portion of my ad budget to Kanoodle - because of the "cheap" clicks in two markets that I target. However, I stopped that as of December 31st. New year - new approaches to PPC advertising.

    Re: keep my money

    I'm wondering what a domainhop landing page looks like. Can someone post or PM an example?
