Houston We Have a Problem

Good question! And here is the answer.

You do notice a drop in pages served last month, and I believe that is due to the issue of Google Adsense adding a blocker which put up a nag message for each page you loaded if you were using an add blocker. That is turned off now.

I love looking at these things (and I almost never do look at them) but here are some other interesting stats.

I always assumed the nag message was from the site owner not Google.

Nope they added their own built in one as a test or as Google calls them experiments. That was not a good test.

And some more stats.

Interesting that Android is higher than iOS.

Yeah surprised me too.

Speaking of phones... I did an update to Tapatalk a few weeks ago... and for me it has FINALLY been working well. They seem to have finally fixed a number of the bugs. Once we get out of his money hole we are in if it keeps working good like this I will pay for Tapatalk again so no ads (that they get paid for not us) in the app.

Hows Tapatalk working for everyone else now?

What is truly interesting is the margins that the competition has on Apple. It isn't just a little bit.

Hell... who uses OS/2?

I keep getting the annoying alert asking if I want to open Tapatalk or continue using chrome.
Obviously I want to continue using chrome since it is much easier to use.
Can’t you get rid of that alert????

Nope. Not unless we pay them. That and ads go away when we pay them.

I just went over to Tapatalk, just to make sure I told Kevin the correct answer and it was.

However they did double their price from $10 a month to $20.

WebTV????

 

[harshness]

WebTV????

There's always some doofus out there that spoofs their user agent data.

It it probably is real and I believe I know who did it. He’s a friend of mine and is working on a Web TV emulation project and I asked him to pull up SatelliteGuys.

Get the CASH, man, get the CASH! Pub membership at the least!

Your only are saying that as you found the Red Recording Light I hid in the Pub Members forum.

Yeah, that is surprising. I can't even get my aging version of FF to work on SG any longer. That takes out my favorite 32-bit computer. At least Amazon is still usable on that computer...

For those wondering how we are doing... well since redoing the Google Adsense stuff we are starting to see an increase... but not a big one unfortunately.

I really need to figure out a way of keeping the site online and increasing our revenues so our bills are paid. And I need to figure out a way of doing it without having you guys (and gals) open your own wallets.
