Since I made it

[Senoska]

That BG Anonymous thing has had 17859 visits, 32718 hits.

What the fuck?

bear has it sigged.

[Kuya]

Everyone wants to touch bear, so it makes sense.

[Ryko]

Hit bear*

[Kuya]

Depends on the context honestly.

[Ohaigaiz]

i'd like to touch him

[Kuya]

Genuine Native American; who wouldn't.

[Kiarax]

I'd hit it.

I know but 32k hits is a fucking lot. I put some ads on that page and make some money out of this >_>

[MisterBob]

You won't make any money off the ads. You should know that those hits are a result of people hitting the script that generates the image (/image.jpg/index.php). The ads won't make any money since people aren't going to hit the ads, and you'll end up with 10-15 hits per day, tops on them.

[#686578]

You make money per impression.

It's just severely reduced.

Also depends on where you get your ads from. Iirc google pays for impressions.

[MisterBob]

The ads will never get loaded, and thus you will never actually get any impressions.

Also, Adsense does pay per impression, but it sucks (think less than .01c per impression. They claim it's higher, but that ends up being BS in the long run).

All of these hits are just from people viewing BG and loading TheBearOfScience's sig. You know your site isn't getting any real hits when his sig just says "Thebearofscience is a gigantic faggot" 90% of the time.

I change it all the time.

It's just people change it back.

As long as the image is viewed a hit is registered on my page. His sig is not an image, its a PHP file. I used some trickery to make the forums think it was an image, but obviously its not.

I don't think you're quite getting this. It's not about hits, it's about actual views of the advertisements. If the ad provider doesn't get a hit too, your hits don't matter.

You could attempt to imbed the advertising script into your page, but they'll ban you pretty quickly, and Sonomaa will probably also kick your ass for it.

Also, it isn't "trickery" to get that to render as an image, that's pretty standard stuff.

[Senoska]

YOUR FACE IS PRETTY STANDARD STUFF.

Also, there is a HTML page which is also included in his sig.
