| Anom | Last replied to at August 2, 2010, 12:49 am Look matt, loads of yourbrand sites are doing well such as freecoin, live, magic, credits, and daniel beal sites. But theirs also many inactive ones, being a member of pirates now, that have had several owners but it gets passed around like used batteries they make a few quid and then sell it on, give crappy excuses about gcse's, these sites should be run as professional as possible. I am not complaining about just that site there are alot of sites and some just need clear up or get rid. |
| Alan@pennybuilder.co.uk | Last replied to at July 6, 2010, 9:47 pm On all this I agree Anom (is that you daniel beal?) although you forgot to mention pennybuilder which everyone knows is the best lol |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 6, 2010, 11:52 pm Pirates hasnt been passed on around.. Dom is managing the site. And crappy excuses about GCSE's.. They are actually pretty important if you havent noticed. I don't intend to live my life from £20 a month earnings from a cashback site.. I need decent grades so i can move on and do somthing worth while. And as for 'they make a few quid and sell on' .. I made nothing from pirates after SFB messed up, somthing which wasnt my fault. I'm sure it'll be back up and running shortly. |
| Dom | Last replied to at July 6, 2010, 11:55 pm hi i own pirates and atm it is down for updates and i havent had time to sort it as ave had other things to do in my life, i also own crowncashback which is updated daily and when i open pirates again it will also be. |
| Anom | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 1:03 am But it says 27th of June! Don't bother with your sites because you will always say "I have a life" attiude, that maybe so but you can still run a site. What about us members using it, total crap. |
| dom | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 1:58 am mate its my site in the end i run it and its upto me how i run it if you are that bothered you dont have to use the site . i havent had the time to add all the new offers to the site as have another site to run which is my main project . |
| Mike | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 9:15 am If GCSEs are coming up, then you should plan ahead and wait until after them before you setup a site. I'm sorry Dom while I have nothing against you, I don't think the it's my site do what you want is not the right attitude to take. A cashback site is a business not a personal website, you can't run it with that mentality. |
| Matt | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 10:03 am This is why we introduced the transfer fee to stop people giving sites to each other all the time. Dom according to our records you do not own this site so either you or Amy need to pay the transfer fee to keep the site active. Thanks, Matt |
| annon | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 11:17 am i think amy, tom ,john and dom have all had there chance owning site after site and have let down clickers and not run them correctly something should be done by matt once and for all |
| Dom | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 11:34 am i own crown which is run well i havent even started to run pirates yet so how can you judge my running of the site and why post as annon are you to scraed to tell us who you are ? |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 4:55 pm Haha, Well if it wasnt for so many fraudulents clicks - there wouldnt be the problem. Clickers should take some blame. If it wasnt for half this crap, there wouldnt be the problem. Wise up. |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 5:03 pm As for the 'I have a life' attitude, Your-Brand struggles to make minimum payouts on most sites, I've put in loads of money for advertising on the site and lost out big time. Again, if it wasnt for all you people using fake details on offers, this wouldnt have been a problem. And the amount of daily clicks being revoked on me because the clicks arent completed properly was a joke, why should i sit there for hours going through 1p offers when i need to be revising? And in reply to ; What about the clickers, stop abusing the system. |
| Jack | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 5:19 pm I think that your-brand sites can make and meet payout requests, its not hard to reach cashout on most decent sites without relying on daily clicks. As for money towards advertising, it depends how it is spent, Amy just promoting on cashillion isn't going to get you a load of members, you need to work on other methods. As for the admin side etc, its easy to reverse etc. I can update my site in a about 10 minutes. I haven't posted on here much before but I think it's clear which users are here to make money for themselves and those which are willing to earn money for themselves and others. At the end of the day, the site needs active members, piss them off and you got a crap site ;) |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 5:36 pm True, Although i don't rely solely* on daily clicks.. At 1p return per click i don't think you can worry about them too much. The comment about making money for yourself and others is irrelivent really, but when you've had affiliate sites on the phone saying, your members have taken part in so much fraudulent activity, we wont be paying you a penny - funnily enough, does annoy you or this list of IP's have been blocked from using any of links & your site will be closely monitored ect, because allowing people to complete offers more than once or saying its fine to use invalid details has be allowed. Although its hard to control which members complete the offers with valid details, it does need a better system to prevent it. I've had banners up on other cashbacks, forum advertising (dont get me wrong, im not gonna say thats going to bring me a million active members), but surely people (not just myself), invest in cashback sites & make an effort to make them work to get a reasonable bit of profit? Or do you not care about making any money back aslong your making other people money? :| It's like running a shop really.. are you going to keep investing loads of money into somthing your not making anything back on, as long as your customers are making brilliant savings and such? No? Cashbacks can work & i'm not saying they cant.. but i know for a fact, certain sites do struggle to make the minimum because of the same old offers being on every site and being offers at a 50% return rate. When i set out on your-brand like 2 years back? it was completly different, but then people started to realise how easy it would be to set up a site and thats when the increase of fraudulent clicks began to happen and kill the system. Also, your thing about being able to get through clicks 10 mins, how? I asked people on msn & forums about this and for some reason the excel remove list did nothing for me. So the only way for me was to sit there and go through like 38 pages of cashillion cancelled clicks from about 2 months. And before anyone says 'well thats your fault from not monitoring it properly', i only ever allowed each user 1 click on each offer through each day as you should.. but advertisers cancel late and because by then theres such a huge amount of clicks done, its hard to get back on top off. If someone could explain how i can do this quicker, then it would be a huge help. Thanks |
| Anon | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 6:10 pm If you're not making money on cashback sites. STOP SETTING THEM UP YOU CLOWN |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 6:14 pm Did i say i wasnt making any money? I don't think so .. i said i'd made a loss on pirates MUPPET |
| Joey | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 6:56 pm Yeah there definately seems to be alot of sites although I think they can still work well. Like my site I have had for over 2 years and It has had its ups and downs and when I started uni there was a short period whereby I couldn't update as much but everyone has there own indivual reasons however I think people should not just sell when it goes wrong and fix it. :) |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 7, 2010, 7:16 pm Yeah, true. I know i've messed about alot on cashback sites - each and everytime for different reasons. But i felt at this time where i genuinly couldnt get online as much, as i do need decent grades to go onto the courses i'd like to do after summer. So felt it best to let Dom run the site on my behalf.. although this hasnt matieralised at the moment, but i'm sure once he gets going with it - he'll do well. Cashback sites CAN do well as you and a few other people said, but theres so much choice in cashbacks now, you really do need to prove your a great site and beat the rest. When i was working on colourfulcashback, perhaps a year back now - i had some really good clickers and i spoke to 2 of them on msn the other day and said they'd had some bad experiences with your-brand sites and therefore avoid them now. So, the sites which dont payout or update do help let down alot of sites. There are tons of reasons, and it's not really your-brand itself - it is the owners but at the same time, being branded with your-brand, just gives people your just 'another' site. Ah well.. I'll prove i can do well and im not just going to give up.. End of the day, i relied* on other people to help me with sites and when they no longer wanted to run the sites, i got stuck, GCSE's tied me down a little, and then i had a big issue with offers being cancelled AND affiliate sites themselves. We'll see... Hopefully over summer, cashbacks will pick up more for those running sites at this current time. I don't intend on reopening my site for a good few months until im completly content with how im doing and know my circumstances with funding AND college/work. That way, i'll prevent letting other owners and clickers down. (before anyone says anything, the site im talking about, was never fully opened and was purchased off another owner who no longer uses YB - just so i dont get the 'Another new site' lol). :) |
| Tom | Last replied to at July 9, 2010, 6:40 pm I was the former owner of DigitalCashback.com, as it wasn't going too well I sold it onto Dillan (The guy from www.Fast-Cashback.co.cc) He said that he would take care of the transfer fee. Then he deleted all the members. As he couldn't be bothered with it, he sold the site to Amy. The reason I have left Your-Brand is because only the very old sites and well known survive, I know someone will say your not promoting enough but the sites like MagicCashback, LiveCashback, CreditPrizes and FreeCoin do well. (Sorry to those who arn't in the list) |
| Anon | Last replied to at July 9, 2010, 9:37 pm I think we all should all remember that we dont really need Matt as he does shit all apart from take our fee's and bullshit his way around the internet, what we really need is the Your Brand script however saying that many new scripts out their so..... |
| ann | Last replied to at July 9, 2010, 10:12 pm well dillan shouldnt be allowed to just delete his member and there balances ,im getting sick of all these sites MATT SHUT THE REPEATED SHAM ARTISTS DOWN |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 10, 2010, 10:45 pm No disrespect Tom, but you cant really say 'He couldnt be bothered and sold it to Amy'.. You couldnt really be bothered either. But from my situation now, i dont have any intention with continuing with your-brand and if other people have any sence, they wont either. For a start.. To get digital into my name, it'll cost £10 minimum (Get members accounts cleared/restored) + to get the site officially into my name. Then, i'll need more money for advertising and such (obviously you dont NEED the money for advertising, but to get the site more known, you do). And finally, Affiliate Future appear to be only paying members, once advertisers have paid, causing payment issues for a start - meaning i'd have to cover the costs in the mean time & in that time, you don't know if offers will get cancelled ect. Despite everyone's moaning about me previously, i've tried to many times to make sites work and they just dont. As someone just said, if you were lucky to get a site early on, it will work.. if your a your-brand late comer - it's not going to work. As i've previously said, i've spoken to old your-brand users and they've said they come across sites which havent paid and refuse to go anywhere near your-brand sites now. So many sites that used to do well.. not doing as well now also, It seems to be affecting most sites. So it's not worth it as much any longer. So many times i've had the whole 'When are you accepting offers???' + 'I've just withdrawn, when are you sending payments?' day in and day out, some users just don't understand payments take time and my method of accepting every 24 hours, just causes problems, because offers do get cancelled within a week. Which is why.. IF i do open digital in perhaps 2 months(once i've sorted all matts fee's ect), it will be run completly different to other sites + ensured its worked in a way which can be understood easily and the service can be delivered efficiently. No doubt i'll get some comments about this.. But we'll see how the market continues. If it's carries on like this, theres going to be no point. As for the main point.. I agree that no more sites should be allowed to be created. But there we go :) |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 10, 2010, 10:48 pm Ps. "Then he deleted all the members. As he couldn't be bothered with it, he sold the site to Amy." Dillan told me you deleted the members by the way lol, So i keep being told different things by both of you two.. So :P |
| Tom | Last replied to at July 11, 2010, 10:03 am Why would I delete the members? Who do you seriously believe, me or this little kid here? http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=113559132012891&ref=ts#!/dillan.finney?v=wall |
| Jack | Last replied to at July 11, 2010, 11:38 am To be honest tom your just has silly for selling to that little kid you posted in the facebook link :) |
| annon | Last replied to at July 11, 2010, 2:46 pm matt you should be ashamed of yourself look at dillian are you having a laugh letting A BABY like him run a site its a discraceeee .ive never seen anything like it in my life.my name address phone number etc has gone to a child like this im sure there laws to protect my and my referal information from being issued to kids im absolutly amazed and livid!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| dom - crowncashback | Last replied to at July 11, 2010, 3:52 pm i thought there was an age restriction now on owning a yb site . |
| Amy | Last replied to at July 11, 2010, 4:13 pm Im pretty sure there isnt an age limit, although i never put my address in on your-brand cashbacks because it's so widely available. This thread has well and truely blown off topic and should just be deleted or whatever now. I'm pretty sure Matt has got the message about not allowing anymore cashback sites, but at the end of the day, new owns should know from us lot complaining, they don't do aswell. So shouldnt even attempt to enter into the market. But also, no one HAS to join a NEW your-brand site, which to me makes everyones points invalid. I'm not forced to join the sites i do + neither is anyone else. As for Tom + Dillan, i don't really care who deleted the members, i'm just a little annoyed that both have blamed each other and i cant get a reasonable answer. I don't know who to believe but at the end of the day, i need to pay matt to get this corrected. Anyway, goodluck with everyone else running cashbacks at the moment and really do hope they pick up for you all. :) |
| Dillan | Last replied to at August 1, 2010, 8:25 pm Tom why perv. for pics of me? http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001125282282&ref=search I hardly use my old profile anymore the above one is the one I keep more up to date thanks. And on topic I believe its up to the person making them as at the end of the day its there money there wasting on the domain etc. |
