AdBrite Interstitials, Advertising or Traffic Redirection Program ?
What happened with me for the last advertiser was surprising when I noticed that I was redirected to the advertiser's website directly while I thought I have just opened my website. The domain displayed isn't my domain, and the AdBrite which is supposed to be displayed on top of ad page is no longer available. So I send an email from AdBrite contact page and the same email to their support email, and I got a response after 3 days (not business days, because it was the weekend)!!! Very fast, in that time I have already removed the ads from almost all the network and the time they check and find the right channel I'll be totally out of the program.
This is not a big deal, but I want to say here that an Advertising program isn't a traffic redirection program. Certainly this was the first time I had an issue with AdBrite at all, but there was no other way to check that the link I accepted will cause such problems otherwise I'll directly refuse the ad. This is something that I suggest to the AdBrite folks, if they are enable to check in time at least they could add an option to test how the ads will be displayed. To prevent the problem before it happen.
And to finish, I have just one zone in my account and when the AdBrite Client Services answered my email I felt ashamed because they asked me where is my adbrite zone is located, probablly I have to create more zones so they can search inside it, or they was looking for the page where it's displayed to test the ads ? And what if the campaign just finished ? should I start it again for testing ?
