		<description>Mike,

I appreciate your comments but I stand by my claims about Advertyz.com. 

1) They failed to respond to my support ticket
2) They failed to respond to a direct email to them
3) Their affiliate program does not work. It is full of bugs and they will not address the issue.

They could have had free advertising on here and I could have generated referral income. 

Their failures made me dump these guys into the spam can.

Plain and simple. They are not professional and do not deserve to be in business.</description>

		<description>To be fair to advertyz.com, I have used them before and had great results. Support has been a bit lax lately but they do get back to me when I write them directly at the admin@advertyz.com address. I wrote them and asked them to increase my daily visitors and it went from about 100-200 per day to about 3000 per day. Google adsense also does not allow any type of "inflated traffic" methods - it is not just advertyz.com's traffic.</description>

		<description>PS I ceased the experiment due to the reasons above. It was not worth my time.

I am waiting for their ads to finish then I will put Google Adsense back up. I do not want to lose my account with them as it generates a decent return for me.

		<description>Don't buy traffic from them. 

Google threatened to cancel my Adsense account because of the way these guys delivered their traffic. 

They are using pop-ups from what I gather.

Also their affiliate program does not work and their technical support/help desk do not answer support tickets or direct emails.

Finally they can not deliver traffic at the levels requested.

This is a scam. Plain and simple.

		<description>So... how's your 10 day experiment coming? I'm curious to know because I'm seriously considering buying traffic from them. 

Mercury was in retrograde when you purchased your traffic and with that all forms of communication do go haywire when mercury spins backwards. 

Feel free to email me privately :-)</description>

		<description>Well I never pretended to be a math whiz. I just noticed that 1000 hits per day for 10 days is only 10,000 hits...not the 100,000 I had bought.

Therefore I have adjusted my ad campaign to be 10,000 per day. 

My bad!
