    Looks interesting, but an honest opinion here is why would I use your product when Prosper202 is probably more powerful and robust, and more likely better supported (via community or developer support)?

    Please don't take this the wrong way, I admire your work, but I think you have to ask the question if it's worth your time. This is an internet marketing forum after all, and I've always considered time my most value asset.

    I think unless you show a distinct advantage over Prosper202 (specifically) as it will probably be most of your competition, then you'll have a hard time gaining any notoriety. Furthermore, if your intention is to charge for this, then you've really stepped up to the big leagues with others such as CPV Lab.

    If you do decide to charge, I think you'd be wise to find your price point significantly lower than CPV Lab, but obviously not free. It is in this manner a way to position your product as a "premium" offering on a typically free product, without all the bells and whistles that may come with CPV Lab or another high end offering.

    Again, take this with a grain of salt. I have a huge respect for developers such as yourself.

    All the best,
    Ben

    Oh guys, this is not a tracking platform like Prosper/CPVlab....it's a script that will get the earning stats from multiple networks for a better overview of your earnings/spending, that's all.

      Basically if you are a publisher of multiple ad networks, adsense,cj,awm,adscend,cpalead, etc, this script will spit out your earnings on one page. It gets your stats from both the API of your ad network, and if the network doesn't provide it, it'll require your user/encoded-pw combo.

      What is prosper202? As I've mentioned in the original post, I plan on making this project open source and don't plan on selling it

      Thank you for summing it up, your description is exactly what this is.

      I also have a service to integrate your ad network's callback/postback services with Google Analytics if anybody is interested

      Again this is not an ad serving script, this is just a statistics tool to monitor your earnings across multiple networks. Can you explain to me what prosper does for you which is similar to this simple script I'm sharing?
