Corrections are the most valuable message we receive, because the figures we publish change without notice and readers often notice before we do. Below are the addresses for each type of enquiry, the response times you can expect, and an honest list of the things we are unable to help with. Choosing the right address genuinely speeds up the reply.

How to Vet an Adult Traffic Seller Before Depositing: A Source-Level Approach

When planning a campaign, begin with the visitor rather than the network brochure. For a recurring membership, the consequences of transparency tests for an ad network continue beyond the initial form completion. Context changes how a click should be valued. A proposal to buy adult traffic needs a real end goal before the first funds move. For a related view of the same decision, compare it with Spend Scheduling Matters More Than Dramatic Daily Limits: A Practical Framework, which follows the evidence from the source level to the campaign choice.

Transparency tests for an ad network

Consider how the buying process works before interpreting a good-looking rate. A sales page promising an enormous audience is not enough to evaluate a traffic source. Ask whether the platform exposes source identifiers, allows exclusions, publishes the relevant price floors and explains what happens when quality is disputed. AdsCompass provides Source IDs, blacklist and whitelist tools, an auction calculator and publicly accessible terms, giving buyers concrete things to examine.

Request the information that matters to your particular offer: geographic supply, eligible creative formats, tracking compatibility, top-up and refund conditions, and the practical response to a source that does not convert. A legitimate seller should help you estimate and measure, not promise a fixed number of sales.

Consider the visitor’s next step

Picture an adult content membership with recurring billing. A visitor may be interested in the subject yet unwilling to authorize a renewal they did not expect. Clear pricing and an accurate preview should appear before checkout. The media buyer needs approved, retained memberships in the final report, not merely the number of people who reached a payment screen.

Make trust part of the landing page

A network can review publishers and campaigns, but the advertiser controls what happens after the click. Clear pricing, credible claims, privacy information and working forms help distinguish visitors who genuinely want the offer from accidental activity. Misleading urgency or hidden charges may briefly improve superficial engagement while damaging downstream quality and introducing compliance risk.

Measure CPM and CPC on equal terms

A CPM rate buys a thousand impressions, not a thousand visitors. A CPC bid purchases a billed interaction, not a guaranteed lead. For fair comparisons, calculate effective cost per click for an impression-priced placement using the actual click-through rate, then evaluate the conversion rate beyond that click. One format may win on media efficiency and lose on lead quality; the correct winner depends on the campaign objective. Buyers preparing to buy adult traffic can use that question as a practical preflight test.

Hold the variables steady

An advertiser learning a new format should avoid changing country, bid, creative and landing page at the same time. The resulting data would show movement without explaining the cause. Keep the offer stable and compare one meaningful alternative. If the test budget is modest, a smaller number of clean comparisons is usually more useful than a large grid in which every cell receives too little traffic.

Define what counts as revenue

The number shown beside a conversion in a dashboard may not be money the business will ultimately keep. Consider approval rates, fees, refunds, renewals and the time until payout. A campaign can have an attractive gross ROAS and an unappealing net result. Measure against the business model the offer actually uses, not a convenient proxy.

A small worked budget

Consider a hypothetical $360 media allowance split across 6 days. The daily planning number is $60, but the campaign will not necessarily spend it evenly without the corresponding pacing settings. If an early result looks strong, confirm it with qualified conversions, not just a high click count. The same logic applies when an initial source looks poor; ask whether it has received enough spend to be evaluated fairly.

Before increasing spend

There is no universal bid or format that replaces a working offer, source-level measurement and the right audience. In the case of transparency tests for an ad network, the important test is whether a result remains useful after validation. If the decision is to buy adult traffic once more, carry forward the notes on source-level performance. Return to the original conversion goal before increasing spend. If the traffic source produces a different type of result, improve the measurement or the offer rather than quietly redefining success.

Editorial and press

[email protected]

Requests to quote our research, interview requests, and questions about our methodology or sourcing. Journalists and researchers can request the source list behind any published figure, including the read dates. We do not accept guest posts or sponsored articles.

Partnerships

[email protected]

Proposals from ad networks, platforms and agencies. Read this first: a commercial relationship does not change a deposit figure, an accepted-vertical column or a drawback we name, and we decline arrangements offered on that condition. Our editorial policy sets out where the line sits.

Privacy and data

[email protected]

Access, deletion, correction and opt-out requests, and any question about what we store. We respond to statutory requests within 30 days and usually much faster, since the volume of data we hold is small. Details are in the privacy policy.

Response times

Messages are read by the person who wrote the page in question — currently Smith Jones, who verifies every figure published here. Corrections are acknowledged within two business days, and we tell you whether we are treating the message as a confirmed error, a disagreement over interpretation, or something we cannot act on. Silence is not an outcome we consider acceptable, so you get an answer either way.

General, editorial and partnership enquiries are answered within three to five business days. Privacy requests are handled within 30 days as required by law, and in practice within a week. We work Monday to Friday; messages arriving over a weekend start their clock on Monday.

What we cannot help with

Anything to do with your advertiser or publisher account
We are not an ad network and we have no access to any network's systems. We cannot check a balance, release a held payout, unblock an account, appeal a rejected campaign or see why a creative failed moderation. Those requests have to go to the network's own support team, which every network in our comparisons operates directly.
Disputes with a network or platform
We have no standing to intervene in a commercial dispute and no leverage to resolve one. If a network has withheld a payment or closed an account, your routes are its own support and complaints process, the payment provider involved, and where relevant the jurisdiction the company operates in. We cannot arbitrate and cannot pressure a company on your behalf.
Getting your campaign approved
We document what Google, Meta and TikTok publish about the dating category, including certification requirements and blocked markets. We cannot influence a certification decision, expedite a review or advise you around a policy. Where a rule blocks a specific offer type, that is the platform's decision to make and appeal to.
Individualised legal, financial or tax advice
Our content is general research about advertising products and platform policy. It is not legal or financial advice and does not account for your jurisdiction, business structure or contracts. For decisions with legal or tax consequences, take advice from a professional qualified in your jurisdiction, as set out in our terms.

Before you write about a figure

If you are contacting us because a number on our dating ads traffic page does not match what you see in your account, check the verification date on the page first. We date every page precisely so this comparison is possible, and networks change deposit thresholds and payment-method conditions without announcement. A mismatch against a six-month-old verification date is expected; a mismatch against a recent one is a correction we want.

It also helps to say which payment method you were using. Most deposit minimums are conditional on method — cards, e-wallets, crypto and wire frequently carry different thresholds at the same network — and a large share of reported mismatches turn out to be a different condition rather than a wrong figure. Our full method is documented in how we check data.
