Seller Settings
Login – web traffic seller login.
E-Mail Address - traffic seller E-Mail.
Traffic Niche(s) – Niches of sold traffic. Used only as a note which can
be edited by the seller and system administrator.
Reciprocal Link URL – URL from which the seller sends web traffic.
Remark/ICQ – administrator remarks about this seller (ICQ number,
payment information etc). This field can be viewed by administrator

Status - seller status can be either Active or Suspend:
Active – usual status. Seller receives funds for purchased traffic
Suspend – аaccount is blocked, traffic is not sold, funds are not
received.

Balance Money – balance between the money received for the purchased
traffic and money transferred to the seller. If the balance is positive,
it shows the sum which the buyer owes to the seller. Negative balance is
the price of the traffic which the seller has to send to the buyer to
cover the advance payment.
Traffic Category – category of seller traffic.
Traffic filtration mode - selecting the mode of traffic filtration.
Redirect Mode (No Redirect Page) - Redirect mode of traffic filtration.
The traffic is redirected from the seller to the buyer, keeping the
referrer. This is the fastest and most simple mode of traffic
filtration, with the least anti-cheat protection. In this mode it is not
possible to determine a number of traffic properties, such as Cookie,
JavaScript, Java, connection type (Lan/Modem), also some anti-cheat
mechanisms are not employed, which make use of these parameters.
Properties which can't be determined are inactive in this mode. In
Redirect mode cheat traffic using frames and similar methods is
possible. We recommend reviewing sites from which the traffic comes
regularly and determine whether they contain frames, loading files as
CSS etc (here we won't describe cheating methods from which the majority
of similar systems suffer). This mode is recommended for filtration of
known traffic where cheating is not to be expected
Enable Redirect Page - this mode makes use of a minor intermediary page
with redirect. In this mode detailed traffic sorting is possible
(JavaScript, Java, Cookie, connection type), and also anti-cheat
mechanisms are employed. On a redirect page a piece of HTML is used that
is working in all browsers, including those with enabled scripts. Still
a part of the traffic is lost on the redirect page (traffic loss occurs)
- it happens because of simultaneous disabling JavaScript
and <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" ..> using in the browser. Also some SE bots are lost on
this stage, which increases lost traffic. With traffic of good quality
losses usually are 2-5%. This mode is recommended for detailed traffic
sorting and detecting cheats.
Frame Mode (Redirect Page in Frame, Required JavaScript) - in this mode
an IFRAME (hidden frame) is installed on a page from which the traffic
will go. In this frame traffic parameters are determined, and if they
correspond to the specified properties in traffic type settings, traffic
is redirected to the specified page. If traffic properties do not
correspond to the specified properties, no redirections occur. For this mode
JavaScript is required to be enabled in the surfer's browser. This mode
is recommended for separating rare traffic from various web pages (CJ,
Top, TGP).
Link code - link where the buyer sends traffic, or HTML code which the
seller has to install on his/her site. Link and HTML code depend on the
traffic category and the filtration mode.
Traffic Types - here traffic properties, country, price and link where
the specified type of traffic should go are specified. Traffic
properties include:
Uniq Only - only unique hits.
No Proxy - only non-proxy traffic.
No Cheat - only traffic which passed the anti-cheat checking.
No SE Bots - traffic without SE bots (Google, Yahoo, Inktomi, Yandex
etc).
Referrer Only - only traffic with referrers.
JavaScript Only - visitors with JavaScript enabled.
Cookie Only - visitors with cookies enabled.
Java Only - visitors with Java (Java Applets) enabled.
Mobile Only - only mobile browsers.
Con.Type - traffic with specified connection type (modem, lan, unknown,
All - any connection).
Price - traffic price for the specified type.
Url - address where the purchased traffic should go. In the PURCHASE & SALE traffic system the URL field can contain the word "SALE"
(SALE=1, SALE=2), which means that the traffic goes for selling. The
number after "=" is the number of traffic category. If the category is
not specified, traffic will be sold to buyers who did not specify any
category or selected "All Categories".
Enable to select traffic types to the seller - this option allows the
seller to choose a type of sold traffic among the default in the
"Default Seller" section
Show the seller of the URL where his traffic is sent– this option
allows or disallows the seller to view the address where the traffic
which was purchased from him goes.
Return Traffic URL - URLs where the non-purchased traffic will go.
How the system selects a traffic type
While distributing traffic the system selects traffic type from top to
bottom, i.e. if traffic is not suitable for the first type, the system
switches to the second type, and so on. First traffic parameters are
compared with the parameters specified in the top type, the first one.
If the parameters are suitable, the traffic goes to the URL specified in
the first traffic type. If the parameters are not suitable, they are
compared with the parameters specified in the next type. The procedure
is repeated, and if the traffic is not suitable for any type, it is
returned to the seller and goes to the address specified in the "Return
Url field.
Recommendations on specifying similar traffic types
While creating multiple traffic types, for which traffic with the same
parameters* can be suitable, type with a more strict policy should be
created above types with less strict policies. To achieve desired
placing of traffic types they can be arranged in the list using Move Up
and Move Down functions.
*For example: There are two traffic types. The 1st type is unique
traffic from country Z. The 2nd type is any traffic from country Z. As a
result, unique traffic from country Z is suitable for both types.
Example: It is necessary that unique traffic from US and UK was sent to
the URL specified in type 1, while non-unique traffic was sent to the
URL specified in the type 2.
What you should do:
1. Create both traffic types. One for unique traffic (Uniq Only
selected), countries US, UK (United States, United Kingdom), the other
for any traffic, unique and non-unique (Uniq Only not selected), the
same countries.
2. You should check that the type created for unique traffic only should
be above the type for all traffic. If is not so, select the unique
traffic type and move it up.
As a result, the first type sorts out the unique traffic, and the rest
of the traffic goes to the second type.
