Unique / Duplicate IP Earnings Information

AdFoc.usStaffedited
Hi,

In order to prevent fraud and poor quality advertisements, we are having to constantly adjust our algorithm to detect whether or not a visitor counts for earnings.

We want to put a stop to constantly updating our algorithm so we are making some changes soon that will significantly increase earnings for everyone!

This is important information for people who provide traffic that has lots of duplicate IPs visiting our short URLs.

OLD IP Earnings Calculations
1st Visit: 100% of payout rate UNIQUE IP
2nd+ Visit: 0% of payout rate DUPLICATE IP

NEW IP Earnings Calculations - EFFECTIVE MAY 1, 2011
1st Visit: 100% of payout rate UNIQUE IP
2nd Visit: 20% of payout rate DUPLICATE IP
3rd Visit: 15% of payout rate DUPLICATE IP
4th Visit: 10% of payout rate DUPLICATE IP
5th+ Visit: 0% of payout rate DUPLICATE IP

Please Note: We define a "Unique IP" as one that has not been seen by our database yet.

Sincerely,
AdFoc.us

    A user here (zekans) has requested we change the IP detection for the last 24 hour period instead of checking the ENTIRE database. I think this is a good idea!

    Now duplicate IPs are checked only in the last 24 hour period. Earnings should be much higher now 🙂

    Note: I've closed this topic because I want users to find information fast without having to scroll past non-admin posts. I also had to delete a couple posts to clean out the clutter. Please post in the "support" section or PM me if you need to discuss something.
