This is the final part about why I am not using Yahoo right now.
This is part I why I am not using Yahoo
This is part II why I am not using Yahoo
After Yahoo told me why my English keyword did not work and they never going to show in Sweden I asked them to change to US.
The answer I got was stunning “you have to open an account in every countryâ€.
They must be mad, did they think I will deposit $50 for all countries in the world and have the same amount of accounts to handle it. I would have to have extra staff for each country and I would go mad trying to control it.
I told them I want my 50 $ back and I want to finish my account and off course they did not want to do that. I just told them its ok I do a chargeback on VISA and you have to pay anyway its up to you. 3 weeks later they paid but I still get a account balance every money by mail even if I told them to stop.
If they do not shape from this rules they will be number 2 or 3 always after Google Adword they are not even close.
This is part II why I am not using Yahoo read part I here
The problem did not stop just because they finally gave me the extra 50 $ that they have promised me in the promotion email.
I created my ads and waited to get some traffic but all I got was one or two clicks and an email from their customer service.
Its said something like because I am not have anybody clicking on my ads we are going to charge you $10?
What the hell they charge you because they do not manage to get me any traffic?
Apparently this was their policy so I better get going. I changed my keywords to a minimum of $1 dollar per click and thought this might do it. But there was no traffic and after a few days they charge me $10 because Yahoo could not produce any traffic.
I sent them an email and asked them how they could do this and apperntly my keywords was in English and my traffic only came from Sweden?
The email I got was in English I guess it was sent from USA but my yahoo account was some how turned into Swedish. Even if my credit card is Swedish I do not have any ads for Sweden and they never asked me about this. So yes off course that’s why I do not get any traffic from my English keywords.
In part III I pick a fight with Yahoo about my money.
I received an email in my yahoo box as everyone does all the time. “To drive customer to your websiteâ€
It said in the email that I will get a free 50 $ if I sign up so I click on the link and thought that an advanced company as Yahoo would build in the promotion in the email link.
There was no other place to put the promotion code anyway so I thought ok I have 100 $ now. But no when my account was approved one day later there was only 50 $ in the account. I sent them several emails and told them that I am not going to use this service anymore if they do not give me the extra 50 $. The only way I could make them give in was when I told them I would make a chargeback on my credit card and then suddenly they gave me an extra 50 $.
