There are plenty other crap you can make people download. Neverblue has a bunch of toolbars that pay over $3. You guys will have to start thinking out of the box if you want to earn some real money.

I got this email after making ~$77 in 2 days. I'm not sure how they found my domain since I am using a double meta refresh, luckily they only found the domain I have my redirect script on and not the landing page domain, if they saw my landing page I would probably be banned already haha

wondering how I should reply? Fortunately it's only $77 and my traffic was free so not a huge deal

Ok I was trying to think of how they found my domain my here is my new theory:

User installs toolbar
User goes back to my landing page
User confused as to why they still can't view the page (haha)
User clicks install link again, get redirected through redirect domain and back to yahoo toolbar page

I am thinking the newly installed yahoo toolbar might actually give yahoo referer information even though the meta refresh blocks it, since I know it tracks the urls you view.. who knows though, not really a big deal, just felt like posting this idea

I am moving on for the moment

What a great setup. Need some help.
If you use the dark screen method, how can you make it so the program tells the screen
to go white when they click on the download link ?

That way you can tell them to come back to this page after they sign up. And they can look at the page. Maybe some xxxxxx-clips .

you could try this on online browser games, where you offer a cheat or hack to get more money/exp, etc, though not all of the traffic would be gaurenteed US.

what would be some good social networks to promote this on?
