So its been a while since I logged on to my directcpv account and I have to say Im surprised with the bid prices. I was checking out some targets and the bid prices are stupidly high... some exmples:

$6.00 - Facebook
$0.65 - Walmart
$0.66 - Target
$0.95 - eBay

Am I missing something or what? Why people are paying $6 bucks for a single view on facebook or almost a buck on eBay or $0.60+ on target/walmart... wtf! Those are just views not even clicks......
 


I'm GUESSING that they don't want you bidding on facebook hense bumped the price up to something ridiculous.

that would make zero sense though.

im not sure WTF is up with DirectCPV. they bait you in with a killer ROI, and then you commit to spending money and you get shafted
 
they should just kill that target then. who the hell wanna bid for $6. Isnt FB blocked on trafficvance. never bidded but my RM told me so i believe
 
nope, when i first started bidding on social media with dcpv ~7-8 months? or so ago it was < $.70cpv and even then that was expensive but good roi.

I'm not surprised, lots of noobs flock to dcpv and mediatraffic, and they just bid and bid and bid and biddddddd. Last time i logged in the highest bid i saw was $2.. shit is retarded

It makes sense that maybe the bumped the price so people dont bid on FB. But why they dont want people bidding on FB?

Also, i think $0.60+ bid for sites like ebay/walmart/target its way to high. Its just a "view" not even a click..... I wouldn't pay even that for a click......
 
I would say that they don't want people bidding on Facebook because they either A) market directly themselves or B) sell that inventory out to other companies. Facebook is a flood of traffic for those guys so they probably have a way of monetizing it very well.

The other reason I can think of is that because EVERYONE is on Facebook they will get flooded with pop-ups constantly from the software and may cause a higher number of uninstalls.

Just my 2 cents

I agree with you..... if you find a way to monetize FB traffic you can become millionaire on a week.
 
I really wonder how much total inflation is due to tons of people who have slowly blown $100k with virtually no return after rebills died, meanwhile totally fucking up bid prices.

It's great though, PPC these days is laughably cheap!
