Frequently Asked Questions
When do you start my order?
We begin reviewing your campaign within 12 hours of ordering and usually much sooner - it is run through a comprehensive anti-fraud software and then manually reviewed by our engineer. We understand that a quick start time is essential to the success of your business. Reviews of all campaigns are necessary in order to ensure the integrity of our network and protect both the websites and visitors that are part of it.
If there are any issues with a campaign you will be contacted via email.
If not your order will proceed - you should start seeing traffic within 24 hours of ordering and often much sooner.
Geotargeting - what's that?
Geotargeting simply means that you can targeted your website to be shown only to users in certain countries - we do this using IP fingerprinting. allows us to target users from a specific country of origin. Please note that country of choice will affect turnaround times - 83% of our network visitors are from North America with 90% of it being from the 5 English speaking countries. Visitors from non English speaking countries are fewer and will take longer to deliver.
How can I track my visitors?
Upon ordering your URL is automatically converted to a Goo.gl short URL by our backend system. The URL and its analytics link will be shared you via email upon successful checkout.
We do not recommend tracking out traffic through Google analytics. We use third party cookies in order to track traffic and load on our network which makes a large portion of the traffic invisible to Google analytics - however that traffic is picked up by Goo.gl. As a result WE DO NOT ACCEPT GOOGLE ANALYTICS AS PROOF OF DELIVERY.
Where does the traffic come from?
Through the second half of 2014, we have established deals with large web portfolio owners that cover more than 7,000 websites - including more than a dozen websites among the Alexa top 1,000. 54% of the traffic is pop-under, 13% is expired domains and 33% is interstitial.
Can my site contain sound or popups?
Yes - but please note that many websites on our network refuse to display advertisements that direct their visitors to websites with either automatic sound plays or pop ups. As a result these websites may receive traffic slower than otherwise.
What is a java pop?
We do not allow popups which prevent users from leaving a website without giving them the option to click Yes or leave this page. These are typically java popups and most websites in our network do not want to risk their brands by sending users to those kinds of websites.
Where do you run your ads?
We do not publicly list the websites from which traffic comes form in order to protect the integrity of our network and our business.
What's Alexa Traffic?
Alexa.com is the world's premier website used to rank the relative popularity of websites online. Having a high Alexa rank may increase the perceived value of domain or website in auction while also driving potential traffic through Alexa.com own visitors.
Experiencing slow Alexa traffic?
We use browser fingerprinting to isolate users that have the Alexa toolbar installed (which Alexa uses to estimate relative site popularity) - because Alexa traffic means that only users with that toolbar will be sent to your website, delivery can take much longer than it does for regular web traffic.
How to Read Your Google Data
Goo.gl is an official Google product, considered to be the most accurate short URL analytics service available.
By clicking your unique Goo.gl short URL provided above, you are able to track people visiting your site in real time.
Here's a quick breakdown of the different elements featured on your tracking page:
Is your traffic Adsense safe?
Yes, our traffic is in 100% compliance with the TOS of Google's Adsense program.
Will the traffic show in Google Analytics?
Much of it is not - this is due to our network being based on third party tracking cookies which GA has difficulty tracking. We recommend using Goo.gl for tracking purposes
I have multiple visitors form the same IP?
All visitors will be coming from unique IP's - if you see repeating IP's you may be looking at the referral IP instead of the visitor ip - the referral ip is the tracking link used by advertisers that are redirecting traffic to your websites. You may receive multiple viewers from a few large websites, but all visitors will be unique
What's the max number of visitors you can deliver per day?
This depends - across our network we are currently capable of delivering roughly 750,000 visitors per day. However depending on both the targeting options chosen (both geo and vertical) and any site specific characteristics (does it have sound, pop ups etc) the "real" maximum a website can pull is much smaller than that. For an estimate for your individual circumstance please contact us.

My traffic came in fast?
Depending on inventory (whether other advertisers running ads on with similar targeting to yours or if our inventory is completely free) we may begin sending you high volumes of traffic from the get go because there is no one else currently in rotation for your ad spot.
