Kontera removed "$5 earnings minimum" clause, this has been announced in their blog : After releasing our updated TOS we’ve received some publisher feedback pertaining to an existing clause. The clause, stating a $5 earnings minimum in order for revenues to be rolled over to the next month, though not a new addition, raised some concerns among a small yet important segment of our publisher community. Since publisher feedback is highly important to us and as a result, we’ve decided to remove this clause from our TOS effective April 1st 2009. Is this a good news to 'a small yet important segment of our publisher community?' but I have removed Kontera code in most of my webpages after I have realized this , and feel very unhappy with MY 'stupidness'. I am sandbox publisher, I joined Kontera six months ago, none of my monthly revenue has reached minimum earning requirement (and I have to say, Kontera's CPC rate is very low!), so I have worked for Kontera for n...

I wanted to integrate Kontera code into my SMF (Simple Machine Forum), but got "Template Parse Error!"  message: Template Parse Error! There was a problem loading the /Themes/default/index.template.php template or language file. Please check the syntax and try again - remember, single quotes (') often have to be escaped with a slash (\). To see more specific error information from PHP, try accessing the file directly. You may want to try to refresh this page or use the default theme. syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ',' or ';' One solution is to change single quotes (') to double quotes,  for example, you change var dc_AdLinkColor = 'blue' ; to: var dc_AdLinkColor =  " blue "  ; Another solution is to escaped with a slash (\) as sugested in the error message, put a slash (\) before every single quote (').

I feel not comfortable using reports in Kontera. It is all confusing and not able to take out the reports I that would like to see. In Adsense it very easy and several report options are available, for example, it's quite easy to generate an "all the time", or "since last payment" report for Google Adsense, but as for Kontera, how can I get the report for all the time since I registered my account? There are custom dates for me to choose from, but it seems the starting date always keeps changing, last time I can get my report starting from 2008-9-19, but today I can only start from 2008-9-24, and revenues seem keep changing too, I mean, it seem doesn't increase all the time, sometimes decrease! I double checked my Kontera report, and it does seem to drop some data. I saved my last report (date from 2008-09-19 to 2009-03-17), but this time I can not go back to 2008-9-19, I can only go back to 2008-9-24, so I generate anther report dated from 2008-9-24 to 2...

Can I have both Adsense and Kontera ads on the same page in my website? Is it against TOS to add Kontera? No, it's no against TOS, Both are fine as long as konterra doen't generate inline ads within the adsense ads. One man allegedly from Kontera, says: "I wanted to mention that ContentLinks™ can be placed alongside Google Adsense and in fact, many publishers find the combination to be highly successful. The advertisements differ in forms- Google provides relevant ads to the side of the content while our ContentLinks™ are within the text. For this reason, Kontera ads can be used as a supplemental ad service as well as a primary source of revenue."
