Well, I have 100s of such visitors, I doubt they have 100s of auditors to review my page after 10 seconds each.

Yes, but if Google advertises in the Keyword Tool that I can get 400 clicks at $0.50 per click, and then when I join I get 4-5 clicks per day at $1.20 per click -- for the same exact keywords. Ok, thats acceptable. Thats about 3X as expensi

If that were the case, here what I propose. That developers audit their code once a year to make sure it's fair. My main point is the CPM versus CPC audience-mix.

This is true. What would be amazing is if there was a way to audit their advertising algorithms to know it is fair. I tried their new Contact Form tool, but the cost per lead is about $17/lead. At the end of the day, if someone is adve

I basically used Camtasia and changed the clip to 3X the speed, I didn't do it via the Fullstory UI

Correct, thank you.

I don't believe it does. It seems from my data that CPM will always be more costly than CPM. I am suggesting this is artificial.

The second gif animation is actually slower - you are correct. Both gifs were speed up 3X. The Google/Facebook one is a very very slow scroll. The point I am making is that 80-90% of the traffic is a simple user interaction. Sorry, but

I was optimizing for best behavior - so, in the case of Google - Google Search Network only, no network partners. I also moved Mobile devices to -100% so I don't bid in that space. So, desktop & tablet only.

Correct. This is the main point of the claim, and that their CPM is a fabricated stream of visitors with a specific mix of "active" vs. "non-active" users - which they control.

Why does this show in the HN landing page if it was submitted over 2 hours ago and only has 3 likes while there are other articles with more points that have been submitted sooner?

I love this idea. I predicted it to a friend about 6-months ago. Both because Blockchain is in a hype, but also because healthcare needs to find a distributed database solution. I work in healthcare IT for a Fortune 100 pharma and this make

The case I am making is I believe Google & Facebook mix "active" and "non-active" users to create an artificial stream of users such that paying by impression is always worst than CPC.

True. Early on when I used the Google Keyword tool it told me it could drive 400 clicks with a max bid of $0.50 per click. In reality I can get 10 clicks for $1.25 per click -- and that is when the conversion rate is an order of magnitude w

This is such an incredible feat that I just want to trow a note here so I can reference in the future to show off. If the metric of global innovation has an exponential power, this act alone will likely increase that power by 10%
