Deimos’s Thoughts
Looks like a nice way of rewarding fellow Nuffnangers aye? The way I look at it, it is more like “handicapping” those who not to display Nuffnang Ads exclusively since most of the so called rewards are already readily available to existing Nuffnangers.
This list of “rewards” needs to be “improved” as Nuffnang progress in this Internet Advertising business. Only six (6) goodies to date? Nuffnang better add on more goodies to this list in the future.
Anyway, I re-instated Nuffnang Ads into my site, hopefully this loyalty program thingie would be worth it. Just guinea pigtized myself. Wow.

So, fellow local (Malaysian) bloggers, what do you think about this Nuffnang Glitterati thingie? Would you support Nuffnang exclusively? What do you think about Nuffnang? What about the competitors like Adverlets, GrabMyAds and Nufflets?

I think big G’s ads can be displayed, cause the nuffnang T&C there only stated that no other South East Asia ads are allowed, i think G’s ads is not included..

@yung.:
Yeah, Big-G’s Ads can be placed together with Nuffnang’s Ads. 😉
Nuffnang only want to put the other SEA competitors out of business. 🙂
I decided to lay off Big-G’s Ads for now though. 🙄
Would re-instate them when I got more traffic.

looks like more people are jumping into Nuffnang bandwagon again
. Anyway, I still believed Adverlets will do something about it. I’m sure they don’t want to lose without a fight.
