Why the limitations on IPs?
mandy1I don't understand the limitations on IPs. Although it is nice to at least make a little money on duplicate IPs, why are IPs counted only if a particular IP isn't in the database of the ENTIRE adfocus database?
Some people have many adfoc.us links on their sites and if a unique visitor decides to check out many of those links, we don't get paid past a certain point. For instance, if you have a number of links to photos posted on your site and all those links are adfocus links and a visitor decides to check out let's say 15 photos (links), we would only get paid for the first 4 photos they look at.
Or what about if a particular internet user has visited many adfocus links in a day and then comes across one of yours and visits it. You won't get paid because their IP has already been counted for the 4 times allowed across the entire network. How fair is that? That doesn't make sense.
Why is this limitation in place? I understand the idea of wanting to prevent abuse, but I would think it would make more sense to have the IP be limited to how often that IP is seen on a particular adfocus link or at least how often it is seen under any individual account. To make the IP limit across the entire adfocus network seems too strict.
Please revisit this and take this into consideration. You can still prevent abuse this way, yet give the legitamate people an opportunity to make more money. And the more adfocus members make, the more adfocus itself should make in the long run.
