Anyone else had their percentage of filtered clicks increased today?
My last 4 solos were 30-34% which is pretty high anyway but currently sending a solo and it's 42%.

How do we explain to our customers (since udimi does not), what is botnet traffic exchange mean? Customers think our traffic is shit, when in reality this filtered traffic effects our opt in rates, effects the amount of sales our customer will have.

just be honest....Udimi filters are very very aggressive and filter perfectly fine clicks we sell elswere .... so you know you are getting the best of the best...don't give away clicks sell them for 50 cents + at Udimi

Now your job is to find a home for perfect good clicks Udimi filters...should not be too hard. ;)

Sell udimis filtered clicks for .35on the open market...why .35...that's the epic I am making on my filtered clicks.

But thats probebly why it is the problem when u start looking on it's behaviour behind the obvius. But i agree, it needs to be change. It's feels more like it's not adapted or tuned to the changes and direktion solo ads are going.

Not sure what you mean by "Delayed redirect" when you have a click....you have a click...

Well I know if I click on a link and there is any delay I move on quickly.

Fact is we should should not have to be even thinking this way

Wow, you guys serious about the number of filtered clicks you were / are getting?

I was complaining about 35-40% but looking at your posts, seems like mine is relatively low.

It has been better. But I have been blocking IP's that show up in my differed click report. But since I add so many new leads a day its staying 25%-30%... If it is consistent I can plan for it.

Sales seem a lot slower and it is a bit ironic that some of the top sellers of late are not even paying for solo deals... I guess I better start recruiting more affiliates...LOL

we made few adjustments two days ago.

Just make sure you don't redirect filtered clicks to another solos, because when a user clicks two different links from different solos within a 1-2 seconds, it will be marked as botnet and filtered.

many top sellers have left UDIMI already. Just go through the Hall Of Fame list and you'l see. Year ago 100% of my solos income was made on Udimi because I didn't have to sell anywhere else. Now less than 10% of my solos income is made on UDIMI and rest elsewhere because the high number of filtered clicks and the schedule system is just not flexible for a solo seller. Not being able to accept orders anytime and send traffic anytime that day or instantly after accepting solo in the day is just pain when you are a seller. The earliest to send solo is 4 or 5 hours from purchase..whatever the time is now. Old scheduling was much better..accept solo and send it right away if spot available. Now it's like..will I get an order within next 5 hours? should I wait? should I sell somewhere? I sell wherever it comes first and unfortunately it doesn't happen on Udimi. Udimi if you are reading this..at least bring back the old schedule system. Many sellers will be happier and won't be rejecting solos that go out at 3 am. Just think what pain that is for both...lost sale for seller when rejecting that order and frustrated buyer.

Personally I love selling at Udimi even though my profits are less... yeah there have been some expensive issues...and yeah sales are down....but

I don't have to deal with chargebacks

My customers feel comfortable buying this way

I get a lot more exposure

I sell a lot more through contract sales(not Udimi) ...but in the last 8 months I added 100k in sales just because of Udimi ... yeah I complain and gripe about sudden changes in policies etc...and I will always gripe about stuff that just happens,. I am not trying to brown nose at all...I just appreciate what we have in this service...I don't take it for granted

But trust me I will call them out when I think they are screwing up..lol..and appologise when I am wrong.

I agree with Nicole I think the scheduling system is very stressful for sellers. I am a low volume seller and I think it would be hard for high volume sellers to make the 5% mark in 5 hours for every solo if they sold 5 to 10 solos per day.
Also I think you should put the min solo order back to 25 or 50 clicks. I think its unfriendly to new buyers to have to buy 100 clicks, that's a minimum $50 order for most seller, for first timers, that sounds stressful to have to make your first purchase for $50.
