I guess Google is trying something new now. I just saw in the bottom of the advertising “ads by Google†and it did not use the text they used the Google logo in small letters.
I do not think they really tweaked it yet because some part of the logo was missing and a few hours later I can not see it anymore. I like that Google always trying something new and they always make a buzz about it. I can not remember Pay Pal did anything new that was worth notice, expect taking more of my money.
This is part II why I am not using Yahoo read part I here
The problem did not stop just because they finally gave me the extra 50 $ that they have promised me in the promotion email.
I created my ads and waited to get some traffic but all I got was one or two clicks and an email from their customer service.
Its said something like because I am not have anybody clicking on my ads we are going to charge you $10?
What the hell they charge you because they do not manage to get me any traffic?
Apparently this was their policy so I better get going. I changed my keywords to a minimum of $1 dollar per click and thought this might do it. But there was no traffic and after a few days they charge me $10 because Yahoo could not produce any traffic.
I sent them an email and asked them how they could do this and apperntly my keywords was in English and my traffic only came from Sweden?
The email I got was in English I guess it was sent from USA but my yahoo account was some how turned into Swedish. Even if my credit card is Swedish I do not have any ads for Sweden and they never asked me about this. So yes off course that’s why I do not get any traffic from my English keywords.
In part III I pick a fight with Yahoo about my money.
I get a lot of spam every day and in some accounts I even have so much I redirect them to my Gmail account to take a look at them later because 99 % of them are spam.
When you put in a email in your domain name register you think it should be safe but they actually sell address and they are the most spammed so I make a special email just for them.
I also use the spam assassin spam filter in my Cpanel and last I have my Eudora junk mail filter but despite all this preventions I still get spam inform of images.
I just found out that a company called Borderware have created an anti image spam“>anti image spam that will stop all this spam with images I get.
I actually did not know that these spam bandits have program that creates different sizes and fonts in there images so they can bypass the filters. Another interesting fact is that 30 % is image spam and until now there has been no way to stop them.
