Secrets to making money on FanBox

good one

Thats really great Johnny ! Thanks for the Great post ! I hope it will really help many !

Thanx for this post JC. I have been unclear about this ADD Changed. thank you.

You have very good info. here, this is a must read for all fanbox associates

Thanks for the info! Good to know!

Awesome!!!! Makes complete sense!!

Good information, Thanks!!!

Great Post! I have a question regarding bidding on ads. Let's say Jenny Lee, TK and I bid on the tag "chihuahua" and I bid .1 cent per click.
Jenny Lee bids 50 cents a click and TK lays down $1 per click.
Wouldn't TK's ads get preference for showing due to a higher bid?

wow i have learned from this thanks JC

thnx ;)

Thank You Johnny for your info all about Ads. Thank you for the updates.

Great question JoLynn.

In your example, all 3 of you will get the same price, and the sorting order (which determines whose Ad will be served first) is based on the Click Rates of your Ads for those tags.

So, using your example, let's say that the CPC (Cost Per Click) price ends up being $0.05 (based on the popularity of the tag), and your Ad's Click Rate for that tag is 1.5%, TK's is 1% and Jenny Lee's is 3%.

Your Ad won't be served, because in your example you set a Max Bid on it at $0.01 (1 cent) and it ended up being served to everyone at $0.05.

Jenny Lee and TK's Ads will be served, because they both had a Max Bid that was above the $0.05 CPC price that the tag ended up having for the day.

Jenny's Lee's Ad will be served first, because her Click Rate was 3% -- better than TK's Click Rate of 1%.

That's why the best thing to do, in my opinion, is to simply choose "Automatic Mode" -- where you don't set a Max Bid price -- so your Ad will never be blocked based on its Max Bid price being set to lower than the current CPC price.

Remember that your Ads will always be served at the same price everyone else gets for each tag, and as its price goes up, so does its earning potential.

No matter how good your post is, if the CPC price for its tag is only $0.01, your earning potential on it is limited because the daily pool for that tag is only a small amount of money. As demand for Ads with that tag goes up, so does its CPC price -- and your earning potential.

So, the more people that participate in Ads, the higher the earning potential for everyone -- and the better the system gets for readers (users) because they'll see more high quality Ads and discover more posts that match their interests.

VERY NICE TIPS JC..THANKS

thats nice

Thank you so much for the info Mr. JC!!

Thank you for this blog article JC. I am still a little confused to how this is going to work. Are we still allowed to use the earnings in our Fan Box bank to promote these CPC ad campaigns ? If not, this can become very problematic for those which are still waiting to receive their payments in the mail.

What happens when they try to debit your non-Fan Box accounts and the money is just not going to be there? I know that I have set limitations on all my personal bank accounts...even the one which vip draws out my monthly vip subscription from. If the money is not in my account to cover the debit...or charge back...It just will not happen.

FanBox needs to fix the way they payout earning if they are going this route, because of the long wait times as I have seen since starting here for those cashing out. It will make it difficult at best to make income or profit if your associates go bust in their bank accounts in the long run...Not everyone can afford to do things this way....

Very informative

nice info JC...thanks!

usefull......

Thanks Johnny for the information.

Thanks so much for the fast answer - I wanted to make sure I was understanding that correctly! You rock!

Thank you for a bit of clarity on this issue. I am still a bit foggy in the area of how to post my ads if there is zero money in the FB bank for ads. I submitted two ads, but since I only use money in the FB bank, my ads are not being submitted.

this is really good for the advertiser.

Michael:

Yes, as I detailed in the post above, you can still use your earnings in your bank for your Ads, but those earnings will have to mature for 30 days after the month you earned them in.

For example (again, as I detailed in the post above) for all the money you earned in May, you can use those funds for Ads starting on June 30.

You bring up a great point about needing to find a way to get your Cash Outs to you faster. We are moving on getting PayPal live as soon as possible -- I am waiting for the exact launch date even as I type this. I will announce the launch date for PayPal later today.

Jan, that is correct: If you have less than one dollar in your FB Bank (or none of your earnings have matured at least 30 days after the month they were earned) AND you don't have a credit card on file, you cannot post new Ads.

Johnny, Thank you for the helpful information... It will definitely be a new adventure for us all in the FanBox blogging community!!! @ JoLynn... awesome question, for me helped to clear up some of the same questions I had, Thanks! :)

yes, very informative. thanks for explaining in such detail.

Thanks JC for clarifying this! I thought that was what it meant but I just wanted to make sure.

thanks 4 ur contribution

Thanks for clarification of the new ads system

I love the new Ad system!!! I was wondering why I was seeing some of my old ads that have been paused. Thanks for the clarification!!! :)

Wonderful Explained Johnny, i am looking forward for your new post.

Instead to have the blog stuck in nthe fanboxes section , TAKE IT OUT and expose it with this opportunity of a NEW SYSYEM !

Wonderful news Johnny!!

gread
MrJhonny

does this mean you won't earn any money if you don't spend on ads?

Hi Zoe! Yes, your Ads that are paused, out of money or have their time frame expired can still be served, the reasons for which I mention in the post above.

Asnah, I don't understand your comment because of course I am not sure what the current approval status of any Ad is at any given time; contact customer or vip service if you are concerned (or better yet stay patient and it will be approved/rejected shortly).

Brian: Nothing relating to your non-Ads earnings is changing. IE: You CAN still earn if you don't spend on Ads.

Great! I like it!

great one !!!!!!!!

Thanks, good to know ......

Raye, because for some reason they are sending them to you :-) FanBox doesn't choose who sends who friend requests so just click keep as a friend and go from there :-) Have an awesomely blessed day!

Raye, not sure... Must suck... Sort of like people leaving random questions in topic-specific blogs, huh? ;)

lol I meant to write keep as a "fan" but JC you made me bust!!

Hey johnny how will this effect the VIP bloggers I went VIP last month and am enjoying that I am however now paying for a ad if I post one and am planning on reopening one of my ads tonight.
Great info though and I am going to play with it even I don't see your response
