I went into my searchfeed account today and was looking at my keywords that got clicks. I never bid more than $.06 on any keyword and if you go into my keyword list all you see is $.06 the crazy thing is well I have 7 keywords with payments of $.07 up to $1.51. Now everything is set so I am not pushing anything to position 1 etc. this is the first time I have ever seen this in the 6 weeks I have used searchfeed. anyone know what this is before I call in the morning and chew some ass? Or am i an idiot and missed something?

stanley, this is the first time it has happened and they make me good money so I would not avoid them. I was just wondering if someone knew if I had missed something maybe not turned it off in a spot that was not obvious to me setting things up. This was on a couple of new pages I am arbi'ing and has not been a problem on all the others

chris,
login to your searchfeed account and go to:
Listings and Keywords > View Listings > Edit Keywords
View the listing that the expensive clicks came from.
Click on the column heading "Exact Bid Amount " a few times to sort your bids. if you have any bids that are not .01 - .06, you should see the higher costing ones in decending order.
If that doesn't work for you call them. I did last week and got tech support on the phone right away. They were pretty helpful too.
cheers,

xcentrix - I did that and well they are all set the way I wanted them set so not sure what happened. thanks though
Shoemoney, I am coming to about the same conculsion. I am making money but it is still a pain in the ass!
I didnt have very good experiences with miva, but i never used them for arb. I used them on cpa ads and clickbank and got some sign ups and sales but i mostly just broke even.
Anyone else have other experiences with miva?

searchfeed was moving along niceley for the last week/10 days for me. Nothing to brag about but was getting 3:1 so what the hell right, anyway traffic was normal nothing huge, fixed my original problem, don't know what it was but re did my bids back to $.06 on all and well things were moving. Today I go into searchfeed and had 230 hits today! It was around 60 clicks for 5 sites. at 60 hits I was spending, $3.60 a day and making about $11. I have a huge traffic spike and guess what? not 1 click all day! these clicks would happen in blocks of 5 every 15 seconds, wtf! can anyone say clickfraud! I am about to do what I enjoy doing more than anything else in this world, I am about to cause a mess in the morning with searchfeed, yelling the works this is bullshit, I could work myself into a good rage right now but would waiste it then for the morning!
seems like searchfeed keeps fuckin' up!....was thinking about joining but now it seems too much of a hassle to correct shit when searchfeed is fuckin' up.
Let us know how it goes after you have a talk with them.
Hey Chris, do you use any other 2nd tier search engine other then 7search and Searchfeed that bring in decent amount of traffic?
I had exactly the same problem - I set up and account with them and decided to test one site. The site I chose had only 7 visits via 7search for a week. On Monday, campaign goes live and BAM 300 hits!!! And to cap it off, I got an email from Google Monday afternoon telling me my i'm banned from Adsense for invalid clicks!!! FUCK!!
I can only assume it's because of this huge spike - I had only been getting an average 40 visits a day on Adsense prior to this. I am in the process of sorting this out with Google, but this has put me right off Searchfeed.
We will see what they have to say about this!!
I am surprised you got any ad clicks from searchfeed. What really pisses me off with them is when I tell them this is bs, they want me to prove it! FUCK THEM, I had my lawyer send them a nasty letter. shit it is only $100 but damn if I will let someone do this to me. If you let one thing slide you will let anything slide, got to draw the line!
it does seem pretty lame..bah! i had a site on search feed for a while was getting about a 2.5:1 roi(this was a while ago) then suddenly similar thing happened, but i was unsure if it was because i accidentally edited the website(well not accidentally, but i edited to test something out) or if it was searchfeed. either way, i took it off searchfeed
ge engaged, thanks for that extra bit of info, lol, you think you could expand on that thought? maybe have a post with 6 words instead of your usual 3?
