Damn dude, the mod was just released 4 days ago, do you really expect to see someone posting about how much money they made already?

Solve Media launched in September after a year in private beta. You can read about us in the Wall Street Journal. The vBulletin mod has also been around for a while. We have several large forum networks that are using it. We are just now revamping our efforts for plugins for various applications, like vBulletin.

In the wall street article, you guys say

"Solve charges a fee of about 25 cents to 50 cents for each form that is filled out using a Type-In ad, Mr. Jacoby said. He said the company splits its fees 50-50 with the websites where the ads are placed."

That sounds alot different than what we're hearing here. On the low end, we should be getting 12 cents per click, or $12 / 100 clicks. That sounds alot better.

Don't believe everything you read in papers and magazines. What the rep here says is basically from the horses mouth.

I was going to wait a few months before I reported if I had gotten any revenue or not. I did make three cents in three days on six impressions, but then, my forum is slower than frozen molasses. I don't think the measure is that simple anyway.

Wouldn't you? Even though they've been around since way before that report, if this is something you were developing, just what would be stopping you from making enhanced effort at under these circumstances?
