unsquare··on Ribbon Lets You Buy On Twitter, Launches YouTube Support, Price-Matches PayPal
Thanks for the clarification / fix.

Is there a size limit for the digital products? and or data cap?

unsquare··on Ribbon Lets You Buy On Twitter, Launches YouTube Support, Price-Matches PayPal
"Withdrawal Details - Payouts are deposited into your account at the end of each month"

Not clear that it's 2 weeks yet , 2 weeks starts being manageable , but having 1 month worth of sales tied up...

unsquare··on Ask HN: Anyone interested in knowing more about 3rd party selling on Amazon?
Do they handle your fulfillment or are they only an outlet to sell products?

If they do handle your fulfillment , are there any specific requirements ?

Do you use Amazon's advertising services?

I'd have 100's of other questions , but these would help fill my knowledge gap on that subject.

Thank you in advance for your insight on the subject!

unsquare··on French ISP Removes Google Adsense From Websites
Just for the record , the owner of FreeBOX (ISP)(Xavier Niel) doesn't appear to be blocking ads on websites that he owns.(Monde.fr) Can't wait for that filter list to be public.

On the bright side , there are legitimate procedures that work. http://www.ctvnews.ca/health/ontario-man-s-sight-restored-wi...

There's still an appeal process.

A popular youtuber (2,314,015 subs) recently got hit by one of those for his Gangnam style parody.

He explains the process pretty well.

unsquare··on Tell HN: Pay me to think of a domain name for you
This tool always came in handy for me. leandomainsearch.com

But i can see how someone would pay to come up with a good brand name , instead of a generic one.

They can target everything.

Country,City,Age,Sex,Relationship Status,Language,Education,Workplace,Platform and finally interest based.

Interest based can be as specific as "Liking" a minecraft page or as broad as gaming. They can target you for using a specific app on facebook or playing a specific game.

They can target every single thing about you.

Edit: It's late.

I've re-read your comment.

It would probably not be a direct message from Thinkgeek , but more like a marketing email with whatever content they provided to facebook.

It would feel weird to receive a direct message from a company and might look sketchy.

unsquare··on Ask HN: Cheap High Bandwidth Solutions?
I've looked into Hivelocity before , but never noticed that option before , "100Mbps Unmetered (est. 33TB /mo)" that's spot on.

Thank you , you made my day.

They already pay that much for interest-based targeted ads.

Interesting angle. Good idea.
unsquare··on How I made money with TeeSpring
Thank you for the swift response.

Will definitely be using your platform in the future , it's exactly what i was looking for.

Any plans on crowd funding posters in the future?

unsquare··on How I made money with TeeSpring
What kind of printing process does TeeSpring use ? Doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere.
unsquare··on Recommended by a friend - do any HNers use FreeAgent Online Accounting Software?
"Affiliate links" are just a commission based referral program.

Nonetheless , i was looking for an online accounting solution , so thank you sir.

unsquare··on Ask HN: As a freelancer, how do you ensure clients pay?
"2. Get a deposit (ideally one month's pay) up front. If your client doesn't want to put down a deposit, find another client"

Same here , if they aren't willing to pay a % up front , the discussion ends there. Move on to the next client.

unsquare··on When someone blocks ad's what really happens?
If the Publisher ( Website Owner ) is selling directly ( No Middle Men / Network ) to the Advertiser and hes transparent , he will use a way to track "real" impressions. Ads that aren't shown to the visitors won't count. ( This is only for CPM based ads ) Publishers know that people use adblocker and can easily detect it , it's not uncommon to replace the blocked ads by an internal image / message asking you to disable it on their website.

But yes , if you buy advertising on some websites , you may pay for impressions that never happened.

Feel free to ask more questions on the subject.
