Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from the WideCircles Team. We are pleased to announce our next release which has been in development and limited public testing for over a year is finally underway to be released to general public in early of 2011. Our new release will feature a most comprehensive set of advertising options. Stay tuned and enjoy your holidays!

Thank you from the WideCircles Team.

Dear WideCircles Advertiser,

We have currently completed a series of hardware and software upgrades
that will help us with new launch of our service known as “WideCircles Reloaded”.

The new improvements include faster processing speeds, smarter target website
identification algorithms and more. These improvements have been applied to
our existing version of the system and also the new version that has
been in testing pipe for almost a year.

Lastly, since our system is generating large amount of potential website
posting targets, we have applied something known as URL vacuum. This allows
us to provide you with better performance and reduce amount of redundant data.

Starting today, in ad tasks that have been processed fully alredy or are being processed,
you will only see url targets that your ad text / link have been posted on by our
publishers. Websites that publisher has processed but never posted anything on ( or touched )
will be automatically discarded or vacuumed so you will not see those anymore. Therefore
you may see lower amount of websites in your report as it does not include the redundant
data ( websites that publisher never posted on ) anymore.

This feature will provide you with the same view as before, but won’t include the non-needed
data in the report. Please note that you will still see all the websites being
prepared for each newly created ad task or the existing one that is in the queue.

For any further questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you.

We have launched beta version of our new WideCircles Reloaded platform. Currently it is in limited testing and trial phase. We have selected 100 accounts and 500 publishers that we are testing it with. Once we exit our test and trial period, the new version will become available to everyone.

If you would like to participate in the testing of our new platform we invite you to submit your request through our existing contact form. Please mention “WideCircles Reloaded” testing in the body of your message. Please note that at this time we cannot guarantee that you will be invited for testing. Advertisers, Publishers and Operators are all invited to participate in our testing phase.

First of all season greetings to everyone out there. Due to the total revamp of our existing system, our new version has been postponed for January/February 2010 release date. “WideCircles Reloaded” is the name of our new version that’s due to be released next year.

“WideCircles Reloaded” will feature many more intelligent marketing groups, new payment model and many other components that will make your social, viral, link building and other types of campaigns much more easier and better then ever before. We have incorporated many new features that we received from having a constant feedback with our customers.

In the other important news, we have released a new forum called “DeepVerse.net”. This is the highly speciliazed forum that is a marketplace for Website Traffic, Content And Link Building. It has been organized like no other forum before so that searching for things that you need is fast and easy. For example you can easily find someone who is offering Banner Space or Paid Blog Posts on Health related niche with PR5 site. No other forums out there come even close to what DeepVerse is trying to achieve. Our excellent team of 5 inhouse moderators is monitoring the forum 24/7 to ensure high quality.

DeepVerse.net will evolve together with the new “WideCircles Reloaded” and special tools will become available to the members of the forum. If you have services / products you wish to buy, sell or trade in this market, please visit the http://www.DeepVerse.net marketplace and sign up today. The forum is constantly growing and has opened just a few days ago.

Happy Holidays from WideCircles.com Team!

Attention WideCircles Publishers And Group Account Operators,

As you may know WideCircles has recently partnered with another large online advertising
entity and has gone through a phase of major system upgrades including our data facility.

New version of WideCircles has sligthtly been delayed and will be officially launching
sometime in Nov/Dec of 2009. We will be featuring many new advertising groups including our
unique Social Advertising Evolved marketplace.

Until then we have corrected our payment cycle and improved the ad task queue. Due to
the amount of available advertisers we can now officially guarantee that ad task queue
will remain full at all times ( 24/7 ), meaning new posting tasks will continually come in.
The payments will always be sent to everyone on the 15′th and last day of the month ( every
2 weeks ) assuming they have reached their payout thresholds. Payments can be collected
via PayPal, MoneyBookers or Western Union.

Additionally if you have your own website lists of where you would like to be posting,
please submit them to us for review and inclusion into one of our marketing groups. Please
remember that we only can accept text files, with one website per line.

For any other questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us at any time as
we are here to help you.

Thank you.

Publishers registered as trusted forum members will now receive automatic email notifications whenever new trusted tasks are created or posted by our advertisers. The registered publishers or trusted forum members should then react asap on those tasks and fulfill them. These types of tasks are currently paid the highest in our system and carry large value for the advertiser. The notifications will be sent once a day to registered email on the account until the task is fulfilled or completed. For any additional questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Thank you.

Hello,

Advertisers now have ability to turn on or off their task and campaign status change email notifications, that are automatically generated. They can do this from their main account menu by navigating to Account->Notifications. If you are running a larger campaign, it may be advisable to have these turned off, so you do not recieve constant emails from our system whenever a task or campaign status change occurs.

Our new fixed payment/payout cycle is every Friday, commencing immidately. Everyone
will be paid once a week, every Friday between 8:00AM - 6:00PM Pacific Standard Time.

on Friday and you have reached your threshold. We will automatically pay everyone on
Friday every week, who has reached their payment threshold. Again those thresholds are
$25.00 USD for individual publisher and $50.00 for group operator. You must have a payment
method set in your profile in order for us to complete and process payment transaction.

Hello,

We are proud to announce that we have launched a new operator branding subsystem. You can explore the new platform by logging into your group operator account and then clicking “Branding” option from the top navigation menu. The branding system allows you to customize Logo, Company Name and other contact information.

Once the brand has been setup to your liking you will need to copy the given <iframe…> source code into the HTML page of your website. Publisher will then see your brand and will never see any of the WideCircles information. The system is persistent and it does not rely on the cookies. Even if cookies are disabled or cleared the branding will still remain to function.

Hello,

We are proud to say that we have revamped the old guerilla group target build system and launched a new one, which is currently running live. The old system was slow when it recieved a large number of ad tasks it needed to prepare. The new system is now building ad tasks much faster and in parallel fashion. We can now prepare large number of ad tasks in very short amount of time, so you should be seeing big increase in speed when dealing with this task group.

Please note that we have also added a new task status called “Pending - Building Targets”. This task status is set right after the “Created - Pending Analysis” task status. It means that website targets are currently being prepared for the task. You can always watch the progress of this step by logging into your account and navigating to your campaign. The number of targets is available under “Suggested” column. You can then click this link to get more details on which website targets have been assigned to this task.

Happy New Year from the WideCircles Team.
