Hehe, I know what you mean, I'm not a big fan of such articles... but in reality, such topics are important too, it's quite easy to get lost in the work flow ... I'm horrible when it comes to drinking water, for example, so I have to remind myself all the time. Staying up till 3 - 4 a.m., then...
Hello sgm9,
mobile subscription offers can convert even without a LP, but as always, properly designed LPs will improve the conversion rate.
I've been pushing carrier offers a lot, games too, I made it work with generic banners ... directlinked or through a simple LP - based on GEO, some...
Yup, you need to make sure that the LPs load fine for all devices that you want to target - you can either make a responsive LP or make variations for each device. The problem is, it's not really possible to tell you how to do it in a forum post.
As you correctly mentioned, this requires some...
Since a couple more people asked me about blacklisting/whitelistitng, I wrote an article just about it, check it out : BlackLists or WhiteLists? What should you focus on when buying traffic?
FB is a tought nut to crack when it comes to standard affiliate offers :) Even when running in a whitehat way, they will eventually ban you for pushing affiliate offers based on negative feedback.
There are a few safe verticals thou, app-installs is one - you can try promoting some games...
I'm using pretty much all of them, each has some pros and cons, I can't really say that I have a favorite there. Its like this : exo has a ton of volume and great targeting options, but the quality is a hit or miss, especially with their RON. Trafficjunky has good quality, but they don't approve...
You need to focus on sources that allow carrier targeting. WIFI can work too in theory, but the conversions are almost always so poor, that it doesn't make sense to buy that traffic at all for PINs.
This means that for example trafficfactory or trafficjunky is out completely.
The best network...
The first step is educating yourself. Learn what AM means. Learn what TRAFFIC means, what OFFERS mean. Read about how to host a Landing Page, how to track traffic. Think about what you want to do, build traffic or buy it ...
It's hard to give you any specific advice since you question was SUPER...
Well, to learn the basics, it's always a good idea to start with POPs, it's the cheapest traffic type out there. You can use the most known traffic sources for this : popads, propeller, zeropark, plugrush, clickadu ...
As for the offers, you can pick either sweeps or PIN submits, PIN submits...
You need to make these decisions on several levels.
1. Run some kind of BOT test, look for unrealistically high CTR, setup a bot trap... whatever source has VERY high % of bots needs to go on the blacklist.
2. Set some rule for testing placements, most people recommend about 2x offer payout...
PPV or POPs can work with dating, but this traffic type is known for pretty frequent lead quality issues. PIN submits would be a better choice for sure - pair it with a simple Landing Page and the results can be good. I know a lot of affiliates is also sending mobile POP traffic to smartlinks...
Hello guys!
Last month I held the expert week here on AffiliateFix, check it here in the archives : Gold - Affiliate Expert Week Archives.
Since the feedback I got was pretty much all positive, I decided to spend some more time here on the forum again and started an "AMA" thread.
For a quick...
Not sure where you 're located, but this one in MOSCOW is VERY close : Moscow Affiliate Conference & Party
Organized by the STM folks and the Leabit network - 500+ affiliates should attend :)
Cool man, I'm glad you're following my blog :) So follow my advice too, look into PINs for now, I seriously believe it's the easiest vertical to start with for now.
Sweeps and POPs are still working for many people, but it got way harder recently. It's definitely a good testing combination for anyone who is starting out - you will learn the basics with it at the lowest possible price.
But, in my opinion, it's easier to make money with carrier billing...
Keep one thing in mind regarding BOT traffic. Almost all traffic is sold by using an auction model, the most experienced large volume affiliates and advertisers are setting the market prices, based on how much they can make from that traffic. It's not about whether there are bots in the mix or...
Exactly, mobile POPs are cheap and you can get a ton of them fast. That makes them the perfect training ground. Even if you don't manage to make them profitable, cause obviously not everybody will ... you can still learn the AM fundamentals there and for the lowest possible price. This knowledge...
