Why am I not Getting ADS ???

You will get ads only when advertisers want to send advertisements to you.For this to happen, two things must happen:

Advertisers must first want to advertise on mGinger, a new medium. Since it is a new medium advertisers are approaching slowly. Many are not even aware that mGinger exists. They are taking time

  • Those advertisers who do sign-up must want to target you. Advertisers target you based on your interests, location, age, gender, salary, occupation and many more parameters. If you do not suit their criteria, they will not send their ad to you.
    When you selected the “Max. Number of ads per day” as 10 (or 7 or 5 etc), it is only your preference. It does not mean that you will surely get 10 ads every day. It only means that the maximum that you can ever get on a single day is 10. On some days you might not receive even a single ad, on others you might receive a few but not exceeding your preference.

  • mGinger doesn’t claim that it will send you any particular number of advertisements every day. Please understand that mGinger is just a medium. When advertisers come, you will get ads, when they don’t you will not get ads.
    Please do not get carried away by the hype. Here is the reality: the money you will make from mGinger will in most cases for a long time not be much. The value of the service is not in the money you make directly from mGinger but in the valuable, relevant information that you get.

  • It will take a long time before we can get enough advertisers on a regular basis to send you even 10% of your max preference ads. This whole industry is a baby. Out of Rs. 16,000 Crores spent every year on advertising not even 0.005% is spent on mobile advertising. So, your guess is as good as ours on how long it will take to move some of this spend to mobile.

So, this is what we have to say to you: You will see very few ads on our network for some time (how long? Maybe 4 months, 6 months, we can’t say), have patience, stick to us, we are trying our best to attract advertisers.

mGinger Myths

Myth Number 1: I will get rich through mGinger. I will make a living out of mGinger earnings.
Answer:
No! You will not! We certainly wish mGinger could make you rich, but this idea is not capable of doing that. Hypothetically, if you have thousands in your network and if advertisers have come in full blown and everybody in your network is receiving their maximum number of ads, you could. But realistically, that has a very low probability of happening.
You are inherently worth a lot more, get a job or do something of your own and you will realize your full potential. View mGinger for what it is: a way to get rid of spam, a way to get useful information which is relevant to you, a way to get a bit of pocket money.
Your real gains will come from the offers you can get through mGinger.
Lets say, you spend Rs 5000 every month on certain items. When you select these as your interest areas and advertisers for these items send you “discount ads” which result in a saving of, say, 10%. Then, you save Rs 500. Instead of spending Rs 5000 you spend Rs 4500.
Or, if you plan to buy a bike and an advertiser sends you an “Insurance Free” offer, then if you buy it you save Rs 1500 (approx.).
This is your real monetary benefit. mGinger’s payout is just a compensation for taxing your brain (as explained in a previous blog).


Myth Number 2: I will start receiving mGinger ads from the moment I register.
Answer:
When you said “I want a maximum of 10 ads per day” during sign-up, it doesn’t mean that you will get 10 ads every day from the moment you sign up. It is just a preference, a maximum. You might receive no ads on some days, 1 ad on some and so on up to a maximum of 10 ads on some days.
Whether you receive an ad or not depends on advertisers. Most of you understand this, but there are some who are thinking that it is an instantaneous process.
First of all, advertisers have to notice us. They have to start accepting this new medium. It will TAKE TIME. So, this is our recommendation: sign up, wait and let us go after the advertisers. Again, it is a slow process.
Advertisers typically ask for a profile. Some target students, some target salaried people, some target males, others married…they target based on interest, age, gender, location, profession, education etc. So, if you get an ad and your friend doesn’t, it is probably because your friend’s profile doesn’t fit the advertiser’s needs and yours does. There are advertisers looking for every kind of profile. So, don’t worry about yours.
The upshot is: It will take time!
How much time? Very difficult to tell. We will have better answers maybe in a month.


Myth Number 3: mGinger promised me Rs X every month.
Answer:
mGinger is just a medium. You will get paid only when you get ads. You get ads only when the advertisers come to this medium and then are willing to target you. So, mGinger doesn’t and actually cannot promise you any particular number of ads per day or particular amount of money every month.

How will a baby like mGinger grow?

Yes, mGinger is still a baby. Infact, an infant. We are just 25 days old. We have very few number of users yet.

Imagine this:

We go to an advertiser and tell him that we have 1000 users in Delhi interested in clothes. Do you think he will be impressed? If you do, you need to go and talk to some advertiser once! Advertisers are impressed with big numbers. They want to reach a lot of people (result of conventionality).

For you to get ads consistently, the first thing that is needed is a large number of users in our network. But, here is the chicken and egg problem, to get a large number of users, we need to get advertisers willing to send ads to the small number of existing users. But advertisers look at us mainly when we have large number of users. You get the drift….

It is a tough problem to solve and we are working 24/7 to solve it. So, to begin with, we are looking for those daring non-conventional advertisers who understand the value of precise targeting. Slowly, as our numbers grow, we will get more advertisers.

The key thing is this: GROW YOUR NETWORK. TRUST US.

We are going nowhere till we prove that this is the way to advertise.
