You should hop on the chat sometime. I will join your site. I saw it before but I didn't join because I heard something about someone who owned it/works on it that is apparently a scammer. Not you, but that other guy.
btwb$2/1,000 banner impressions is way over priced. $0.05-$0.10 CPM is what most people will pay
dongatto63 has just posted a new topic entitled "Don't Beat A Dead Horse" in forum "News & Announcements". ----------------------------------------------------------------------My Dear Friends: I am not a doctor, nor have I ever played one on TV either. However, I have taken CPR several times in my life...so perhaps that is why I thought I might be able to I am not a doctor, nor have I ever played one on TV either. However, I have taken CPR several times in my life...so perhaps that is why I thought I might be able to necessitate a dying web site. Of course, I speak of the site here at www.clickzvault.net. The site was on it's last leg when I purchased it almost a year ago...but that didn't stop me (duhh). I really believed that I could make something out of this site. I knew that it had it's potential to become more than it ever could. I sincerely believed in my heart, that by providing a professional management background in the service of our members, I could win back our members to this site. But wishing these things have not made it so. Though I have done more for this site in the few months than our predecessor had....It was too later for this site...AKA: SS Titanic. I did manage to get our members paid. And continue to do so to this day. And although I have spent over $1,500 out of my pocket to pay members and revamp the site appearance and script....still it was not enough. I have managed to win over some staunch enemies of the site (eh hemm....Twysted)...but still was not enough to keep the site working. I have taken the pulse of the site, and the reality of it is this. With the greatly diminished membership (from over 1700 members to a handful of active members)...and with no revenue at all coming in at all: I have decided to euthanize this mostly already dead shell of a site. So what does this mean to our membership? Well, the first thing is that I didn't want to just pull the plug without giving our members a fair and ample amount of warning. I just hate when you go to a site, and all of the sudden, it is GONE. So I will not be "pulling the plug" until February 28, 2009. After that, there will be no new members; no ads to click; and no way to request a payout. If you wish to get a payout, and you have qualified for one...then you must make your request prior to us shutting down. We will honor all requests for payouts as we always have. They will still need to meet our normal payment requirements (no cheaters, scammers, multiple accounts & etc.). I will make the payouts as quickly following the closure of the site, to complete our business here. Though the site will be shut down sometime on 2/28...the forum will remain in effect for the foreseeable future. I am not going to put a time limit on it now...but I would think that it should run for at least the duration remaining on our ownership of the domain name (but don't quote me on this point). I am really sorry for this action. I really feel that I have failed our membership and advertisers. But perhaps I just was not realistic in my conviction of the potential of the site. There is only one ray of hope that I see now. That is if we gain a major influx of both members and legitimate advertisers. But alas...I will not hold my breath waiting on that. If you should have any questions concerning any of subject matter here: please do not hesitate in contacting us at once, so we can attend to your needs. Successfully Yours, John
maybe you could let them all convert to ads until it finally does close?
toycat in this case even a domain change would not have helped. the clickzvault script has always been bugged and any fix has always created at least 2 new bugs. it would have taken a new domain and a new script to maybe make it work and even then it would have been haunted by the past. CV used to have over 10k members but they all gave up a long time ago. with only very few members left it makes a lot more sense to just it down
this and 5ivebux should be a really good lesson for anyone considering buying an existing site. do your homework first. if a site is for sale there probably is a very good reason the selller wants to dump it.
john i do hope http: myptcclicks.com does a lot better for you. good luck with that one
