    A Hard Look at PPC, Click Fraud and the Alternatives - ColdFront Network...


    (Page 6 of 6 )

    ColdFront Network: ( http://www.coldfront.net/index.php/content/view/100/50/ )

    ColdFront serves the Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games (MMORPG) communities. With 150,000 unique visits and 12 million page views per month, they provide real advertising value, if your target market happens to be in this area. Paid inclusion can be purchased for $250 to $350 per month.

    WHO LEFT THE BARN DOOR OPEN?

    We put locks and deadbolts on our doors. In some localities, we put bars on our windows. We keep our valuables in safes. We keep our cars locked when we are not in them. We are a nation obsessed with protecting our valuables.

    And yet, when we advertise our online businesses, we seem to be willing to let PPCSE providers steal 25% of our advertising budget? It boggles the mind.

    Personally, I am done with PPCSE companies until they can assure me that my advertising dollars are protected from click fraud.

    I have always relied on my own search engine optimization skills to strengthen my natural search results. And frankly, I am pretty good at it.

    And, to supplement my own SEO efforts and organic search result placement sucesses, or lack thereof, paid inclusion currently offers me the best value for my money.
