I'm not sure if anyone here has been to a site registered with CPALead, and had to complete on of those nasty surveys for you to view the content on that page, but it drives me nuts. At least a third of the sites I go onto have the CPALead survey script associated with them. I complete the survey, nothing happens. Infact, I go to a site with CPALead on it at least twice a week, and up to this point I have never successfully completed one of those surveys. When you finish, it just takes you to a new survey and expects you to do that one as well. It drives me nuts! Here's the basics...
Most sites on the internet get a lot of traffic (web clicks), but don't really have a way to make money form their site other then hosting advertising witch can be a pain.
CPALead though of an idea, website owners want to make tons of money, without directly selling people things from their site, since that can be a pain as well. They came up with the survey script, that a web owner inserts into their webpage. Let's say the content on the site is free, and people want to view it, but in order for the web owner to make money, the viewers complete a compulsory survey in order for the traditionally "free" content of the page to be "unlocked." The surveys include tons of advertising, useless questions trying to weasel personal information out of viewers for other advertising purposes. CPALead gets paid by their advertising clients, and they give a percentage of the profits to you.
That's how they describe it, but what they don't tell you is that the surveys are designed so you have to do them over and over again to unlock the content, thus bringing more useless advertising to the internet, frustrating thousands of people, and subliminally reducing the overall clicks on the average web-holsters site. People who I have talked to actually loose money because traffic is diverted away form their site because people cannot complete the surveys, and they are tired of doing them over and over every time they go off the site and go back on.
CPALead is an awful company that does not supply it's users with what it advertises, renders many websites useless, and increases the amount of useless drivel spewing from once working, profitable sites. Some surveys even prompt users to download viruses, malware, trojans, and worms...
That's my review on CPALead.com
