Audio Ads are Playing & I’m Making Money!
Woo Hoo! I’ve finally been “inducted” into the soft launch for Pay Per Play! I’ve been waiting patienty – and NO I was not complaining, lol! If you don’t know what I’m talking about when I say I wasn’t complaining … you’ll have to visit my post before this one I’ve Been Sheltered in the WAHM Community
As I said before, Pay Per Play has been in soft launch for the past couple of days, only allowing ads to be played on a certain number of sites a day until all systems are go and things are running smoothly. I checked my stats today and finally ADS ARE PLAYING! Better yet, my commissions are showing also  :D
I’ve also chatted with someone who has some reservations about the ads automatically playing because she often visits websites during the day while she’s at work – and doesn’t care for the ads playing automatically.Â
This is definitely a legitimate concern by all means …
However, there’s some very important thoughts here …
For example:Â I don’t know exactly how many affiliates really are with PPP right now but, just with the soft launch, they’re releasing the ads to play on something like 10,000 websites a day.
And now that they’re slowly getting through the beta, more and more websites are starting to play the ads, and the stats are showing revenue … well, I’m sure you know what that means. Money talks in the business world. Look at how excited just I am. Let’s face it … that sure makes ME want to promote it more and get a little piece of that residual income!
PPP/Net Audio Ads also currently has the backing of a “major search engine” – name to be released once they are completely out of BETA. My guess here is the search engine does not want their name to be released until all bugs are worked out and everything is moving smoothly. Ya know, covering their butts and then jumping in when everything “smells like a rose”, rofl.
I honestly think this is going to be the next “google adsense” and you know how many people run adsense on their sites. Everyone – affiliates AND advertisers are going to want a piece of the pie.
Which just by that statement, you can easily tell who I think the “major search engine” is backing them. Which by the way … I have NOTHING TO PROVE THAT – that’s just my own personal OPINION (Yeah, covering my own butt too, lol!)
I don’t only believe that it’s going to be the “next google adsense” but I also believe it’s going to be in direct competition of adsense … which is another reason why I think I know who the ”major search engine” backer is.
Nowadays, it’s nothing to have audio on a website. At one time it was deemed annoying (mainly music) but now it’s nothing to go to a website and automatically hear a greeting from the owner and/or a video automatically played. It used to be that you had to hit the play button first – not so true anymore.
That’s another reason why I think it’s going to be well-recieved (except for by a some of course) … it’s beginning to be more and more common-place to hear audio and even see video automatically play on a website.
I’m not trying to steer anyone who doesn’t agree with it – for it – I’m just sharing some stats to give you a heads up that chances are, you’re more than likely going to hear this more and more often. (So ya might consider turning those speakers down at work, rofl!)
Of course … only time will tell.Â
Your fellow WAHM in success,
