FAQ
What the is a URL rotator?
It's a program running in the background at Cricket Surf URL Rotator Service that allows you to set up a list of website addresses and rotate them by directing your visitors to a single URL.
How many URLs am I allowed to enter into the rotator?
You are allowed as many URLs as you want. We run an UNLIMITED rotator.
How do I add sites to the rotator?
Log in to the members area and you will then see "URL Manager". Below that you will see the form for inputting your URL, titled "Add New URL". Type in your URL and weight and click on "Add".
What does weight mean?
The higher the weight, the more often that the site is shown (relative to the other sites in your rotator). A weight of 5 will show five times as often as a site with a weight of 1. A site with weight 10 will show twice as much as a site with weight 5 and ten times as much as a site with weight 1. A site with weight zero will not show at all.
How do I see if my rotator is working?
In your account area there is a link for each rotator. Click the link and a new window will open and your rotator will direct to the url that is in the assigned position. You can also copy your url link and paste it into another browser window and test it there.
What kind of sites are not allowed to be used in the rotator?
You are not allowed to include any adult content, illegal content, or other rotators. We do not let you use other rotators because we allow for an unlimited amount of sites, so you should not need to use them. They also make your page load slower.
Can I remove the advertisement from my rotator?
Yes you can remove the advertisement for the low cost of $1.99 per month. Plus when your rotator is loaded it will load directly to one of your sites, not to the rotator URL!
Why is my rotator displaying your site?
Check your URL box in the members area and see if there are any blank lines. The blank lines will rotate the URL Rotator site. Plus, make sure that you have included http:// at the beginning of all of your URLs.
