Answers
1. What is Wointz?
Wointz is a new site designed to service the marketing needs of small to mid-size
web publishers. Wointz was created in order to provide web publishers with
a way to professionally promote their websites at no cost. This fits perfectly
within the budget of all publishers!
2. How can this service be offered for free?
The answer is quite simple. As a participating user, you earn points by displaying
ads from the Wointz network on your websites. Points that you earn are then
used to show your ads on other participating Wointz Websites. In order to
offer this service free of charge, a small percentage of Wointz Ads are reserved
to display 'paid-for' advertising. This revenue is used to offset the cost of the
free service.
3. How does the points system work?

Note: Points have no cash value. Ad rotation uses 1/20 of the points in the 'required to show - unique visitor' column.
4. Is there any commitment or financial obligation required to register?
There is no financial obligation or commitment necessary to join Wointz. Register today and try the service
absolutely risk free!
5. Do I have to show Wointz ads on all of my sites?
The answer is no. As long as you have points available, you can create advertisements for any webpages that you like.
For instance, suppose you had two websites, website A and website B. On website A, you pasted the code provided
by Wointz to show Wointz ads (this is how you earn points) and on website B, you did not paste any code. The points earned
by website A are put into a central pool of points that can be used to show ads for any of your websites, including website B.
6. I don't want to advertise my sites but just use your ad rotation service. Is this allowed?
This is permitted. If you just want to use our ad rotation service, then please feel free to do so. However, note that you are required to have
points to use the ad rotation service. In the event that you do not have sufficient points, an Ad from the Wointz network will be displayed in
place of one of your rotated ads. This will grant you points and allow you to continue to use the ad rotation service for free. In general, the
number of points required to rotate in one of your ads is 1/20 of the number of points required for normal Wointz service. See the points table for details.
The reason for requiring points for the rotation service is to help offset the cost of this free service.
7. My site doesn't have enough traffic to generate a lot of points. Can I buy points?
This feature is not yet available but will be added soon.
9. I have lots of points, why am I not generating very many impressions?
This may be a result of the ad size you have chosen to create. Since ads of a particular size will only be shown on sites that host
those ad sizes, it may be that you chose an unpopular ad size. To avoid this type of situation, it is recommended that you create
at least one ad for each of the ad sizes listed. This will ensure maximum exposure for your site.
