Hey guys,
Mobile advertising might be the future... But desktop advertising is still capable of bringing higher profits if you pick the right offer.
If you want to find out what kind of offers work best with desktop traffic, read on and make the most that match!
Best affiliate marketing offers to run on desktop
The desktop still works. And not just for the evergreen affiliate marketing niches. Verticals such as e-commerce or surveys & sweeps are what tends to work on both mobile and desktop devices equally.
Despite the seasonal spikes, these verticals are usually always a good idea to run. They have a global reach, they’re always relevant, and they have sub-niches and different variants. Overall, you can use seasonal angles but e-commerce and surveys & sweeps will always work as they should. Also, although targeting will depend on each particular offer, the scale is usually slightly tipped toward mobile.
There are, however, three verticals that have a desktop traffic advantage.
Crypto
When you take a look at the websites showing cryptocurrency stats from the past couple of months, you’ll clearly see that a lot is going on there. Crypto is a vertical that keeps coming back. Just like bitcoin, up and down again, just to keep reaching new heights and shocking investors.
Crypto offers deal with a variety of subjects, more or less related to the world of blockchain systems. The most obvious one will be cryptocurrency sites that let people trade Bitcoins and other currencies for cash and vice versa. The less obvious ones will be Bitcoin wallets, casinos, credit cards that are usable in regular shops and even VPNs designed precisely to protect your trading activities.
When it comes to detailed targeting, Tier 1 and 2 GEOs are preferred and all ad formats happen to have similar performance. Desktop, however, is preferred for running pop and domain redirect ads.
Antivirus
Although it is possible to accidentally download malicious software to your mobile device, phones don’t get viruses. Malware is a different thing although it can lead to serious problems such as data theft, app stores generally do a great job filtering through their inventories and blocking thousands of malicious apps every day.
Desktop devices are a whole different thing. While not clicking on suspicious links in messages or emails can successfully protect your mobile device from harmful stuff, that is not the case with personal computers. Researching any niche subject on the Internet already involves clicking on at least a couple of not-entirely-trustworthy-links. And just like we’ve mentioned before, serious business requires a desktop device. And that desktop device requires protection.
Antiviruses are truly needed and the question for each user shouldn’t be whether they need it, but which antivirus will suit their needs the most. Make sure to consider such needs as privacy, data protection, and urgency for action.
VPN
The third best kind of offer to advertise on desktop are VPN offers. Similar to Antivirus offers, the need for VPNs is much more noticeable for desktop devices. People use them to gain online privacy and anonymity. They use them for work, filling out documents, accessing learning platforms, and other businesslike activities.
Let’s be honest, though, VPNs are not only needed for professional activities. They are just as often needed for such unprofessional activities as accessing region-restricted entertainment websites, gaining privacy while surfing adult sites, or hiding your IP while downloading torrents.
Pro tip: VPN offers tend to work well with adult traffic targeting, as people who surf dating and adult sites often want to be hidden and protected as well as possible.
In short, people need VPNs whether it’s for protecting a company’s database or buying a gaming subscription only available abroad. Make an effort to target your campaign at the right audience with the right angle and you’ll be sure to break the bank with your desktop campaigns.
