What is
ArrowSearch.com?
ArrowSearch.com allows advertisers to list their site in our search engine and receive visitors at a cost-per-click basis, as low as $0.01 per click. Our service is much more cost
effective than other advertising methods
because our service is highly targeted.
Instead of having your banner show up
randomly on different sites and hoping
people will click your link, surfers visit
our site looking for specific content using
keywords you relate to your site, just like
any other search engine.
How much
does it cost and how many visitors will I
receive?
A minimum deposit is just $5.00. You must bid at least $0.01 for each keyword you list. Traffic to your site from ArrowSearch.com depends on many factors. For example, if you listed all your keywords at $0.01 each, and your $5.00 balance was spent on clicks to your site using the keywords you had bid $0.01, that would give you 500 visits for only $5.00!!
How does
your ranking system work?
All ranking is
based on advertiser bids. Follow this
scenario: Let's say John places a bid on the
keyword "games" for $0.04. If there are no
other bids on that keyword, John would
automatically have the #1 ranking for that
keyword. If you come into the picture, and
place a bid on the keyword "games" for $0.05
, you would then become the #1 ranking site
for that keyword, and John, saying that he
is still bidding $0.04 for "games," would be
moved down to the #2 ranking site. So
basically, the highest bidder for a specific
keyword will always receive the highest
ranking for that specific keyword, and lower
bidders' listings will appear under the
highest bidder in descending order of their
bid amount.
How many
keywords am I allowed to bid on?
You can submit up to 2000 keywords to bid on. If you would like to submit more than 2000 keywords, please contact tom@arrowsearch.com. Please remember that the keywords you bid on must be related to your site and/or products. Keywords are approved at the sole descretion of our Keyword Administrators. (Only top level domains are accepted. e.g. http://www.mysite.com and NOT http://www.mysite.com/aff45884/index.htm)
How
exactly is my balance spent?
Every time a surfer clicks on a link to your
site after searching with a keyword you made
a bid on, the bid amount for the keyword
used to find your site will be automatically
deducted from your account.
Can I
take money out of my account after
depositing?
No. At
this time, all deposits are non-refundable.
Do I receive bonuses with any deposits I
make into my account?
Yes. All accounts will receive bonuses for any and all deposits made. With a deposit of $5, you will be credited with $10 to spend on keyword bids. With a deposit of $25, you will be credited with $30 to spend on keyword bids. With a deposit of $50, you will be credited with $100 in keywords bids.
Special
bonuses are given to accounts who spend $100
or more. With a deposit of $100, you will be
credited with $150 in keyword bids plus two
weeks free banner advertising. With a
deposit of $200, you will be credited with
$300 plus one month of free banner
advertising.
What kind
of banner advertising do I get with a
deposit of $100 or $200?
All advertisers that spend an at-once
deposit of $100 or $200 will be allowed to
place one banner in our banner rotation.
Banners must be approved by us first. Once
approved, banners are displayed at the top
of every page at ArrowSearch.com, except for
our main page, where banners appear right
about our directory. All sites' banners are
rotated equally and fairly, and may be mixed
in with our own advertising banners. For an
at-once deposit of $100, you will receive 14
days in our banner rotation. For an at-once
deposit of $200, you will receive 31 days in
our banner rotation.
Affiliates
Who can
become a ArrowSearch.com affiliate?
Anyone is
allowed to become an affiliate as long as
their site(s) do not contain anything
related to warez, porn, hate, or piracy.
Do I need
to deposit money into my account to become
an affiliate?
No, you
don't. If you would like to only become an
affiliate, just sign up for a free account
and visit our affiliate section. No deposits
are required to become an affiliate.
What
types of affiliate programs do you offer and
how much do they pay?
We offer
a pay-per-search program which will
automatically deposit $.05 into your
ArrowSearch.com account for every daily unique
search made by a surfer from your site. A
daily unique search is defined as a search
made from one unique IP address each day.
All you have to do is place our
cut-and-paste code in your HTML and get it
up on the web.
How do
you pay your affiliates?
To
simplify the payment process, all affiliates
are paid straight into their ArrowSearch.com
account. In the future, we may start sending
actual checks in the mail, but for now we
are sticking with our automatic crediting.
What
happens if I am caught cheating or spamming?
If we find out you are artificially sending searches or using any method that is not acceptable to send searches (e.g. spam), your account will be immediately terminated, and we may contact the proper authorities. Any and all monies in your account will be forfeited.
