VivaSurf - Some Good News

As you know the lottery is on now:) and we are beginning to see some member support in that regards. We really do need to do something as you guys suggested regarding the free members. First, we have to approve Sites now before thay can be shown in the surf bar, this would prevent bad sites from getting into our rotation. It does not increase our workload because we spend the same amount of time on Abuse reports anyway. Also, free members may not advertise any URL as 99% of abuse report URLs are owned by free members.

As far as the PTC Ads are concerned we are working to improve the payout for that as well as going after non-member Ads placement. To that end we have already increased the PPC for the PTC Ads to 1/2 cents. Most likely, we will use the lower rates on Ads purchased from earnings and higher rates on Ads purchased with Cash. Also, any member that brings in a new Advertising customer will earn 50% of their 1st purchase as a commission. Paid immediately after the customer pays and we are in possesion of the actual funds.

As I said in an earlier email/post; 1] Any member that recruits the most new upgraded members this month and every month henceforth, will automatically get VIP/Associate Member Status. 2] We will upgrade any member with fresh processor upgrades more than $1,000 to VIP/Associate Member level at no extra Charge. 3] We will henceforth pay referral commissions within 5 business days as additinal incentive to recruiting efforts.

Last but not the least, we will be applying the rules regarding free accounts to help clean up our database as there is a direct increase in hosting backup extra costs. This is essential that we avoid spending money on accounts that are not really productive.

We have also, started seeing Advertising revenue from our Forum this month and it confirms we have a lot of potential from several sources. Now all we need is your continued support and affirmative action with regards to our SOS. I look forward to being able to continue to bring you more good news and better results. Regards
