Unfortunately we have network effect monopolists who can get away with huge margins. See Google, Facebook

The problem is these kinds of leaks were more local except for services which have a large internal network. Yes - Google has that problem, but it is naive to assume that more of these won't happen. Any service which has a super easy path to having all their routing tables polluted so quickly is more vulnerable than others.

Fundamental flaw in how services like Cloudflare are architected is that they propagate route leaks from obscure places all over the world.

I am more interested in making international payouts and we are looking at switching to envoyservices.com from PayPal/Manual bank transfers in a couple of months and switching entirely to stripe looks attractive

How soon do you estimate having international bank transfers?

I have to disagree here. Yes there are schools of thought, but questions like "how does a market work?", "what causes deflation?" are pretty well studied and agreed upon. This is one of those very basic settled questions with a very clear accessible explanation.

Yeah - it always amuses me to read these long detailed arguments on these threads from people who seem to not have understood basic macroeconomics.

Our influencers choose from a huge variety of ads that they are interested in. They also write the message that they want to send out. Since we payout based on relevant clicks (and rank influencers based on their click through rate), we incent influencers to make sure that they post things that their audience is interested in.

Jason, how are you measuring conversions on your end? I didn't see any tracking codes in your campaign urls. We do have a advertisers who measure conversions as well as a lot of them who are just interested in building brand awareness.

This is Arvind - one of the co-founders of MyLikes. We do offer location targeting (all the way upto a metro level). In this case, his campaign was paying only for US clicks - (our system guides and publishers self-select since they are only paid for clicks from the location that the advertiser is interested in).
