Which traffic source was those conversion coming from? After your last post in july, in your recent post, it seems likes you found your profitable campaigns.

Currently I am using pop traffic (popads and propelerads). Yeah, this was my first attempt on CPA but didn't quite make i. So i went to try web offers in another journal. This is my second attempt on mobile offers and aiming to make it much bigger.

any updates @internalsoul
are u still running these Campaigns ??
Yeah I am still ruining these campaigns. I'll update this thread with stats tomorrow.
 
1) So about the sweeptakes offer is it pin submit ?

2) Aboud the antivirus offer is it also pin submit or just pay per install offer

3) Also what traffic source did u scale on popads ? Cus u mentioned that u stoped mobicow cus of low volum

And finaly thanks for sharing your journey i am following your mouves every single day
 
1. Sweeptakes offer s a single opt-in offer

2. It's a pin submit. For just pay-per-install the payout wont be that high.

3. Popads and propellerads both. Yeah I've stopped mobicow because it has low volume.

Had cut out all the non-performing and poor performing variables,so the traffic dropped almost about 50%. Not sure why the conversions were low.

Visits:- 634
Clicks:- 84
CTR:- 13.25%
Conversions:- 0

Cost is really high as the competition is high, with zero conversions. I had killed this campaign as my AM told me the EPC is very low for this offer. A very selection of offer.

Very strange to see such a huge CTR but got a winner and that too without optimization and on day one. Lets see how it goes.

I am so happy that you have been able to draw a good plan for the things you want to achieve in the coming days. That is just how great marketers do start. All I can advice you is that do not hesitate asking questions on this forum. The forum has all levels of people in this field and therefore will help you a lot.
 
Awesome job, mate! I have a few questions if you don't mind:
1- are all the campaigns in different geos or all the same geos?
2- are all the campaigns in the same traffic source or different ones?

I've had a small bit of success in mobile, but I'm currently limited to one geo and two traffic sources. Hope to learn to expand my skillsets to different geos.

Thanks Krass
1. Make yourself expandable and flexible. All my campaigns are on different geos. I always, ask my AM, what offers are doing good on the network. I get a list from my AM along with EPC then I personally check each and every single offer's landing page and make my selection. Don't search for offers in a country, search for offers which are doing good.

2. I started out with popads and propellerads. Now i am planing to scale some of the profitable campaigns to popcash. Lets ee how it goes.

Ok now I have gone through your journal and its quite impressive. Now try different geos. Different geo campaign will give you different kind of experience.

Are you planning to keep running those negative ROI campaigns?
Not likely. I have already paused them.
Are all your landing pages made by you? Or did you ripped them?
Not all of them. I made my own landers for campaigns 2 and 4 as the offers has lots of restrictions. Those are the simplest one page landers. Rest are ripped.It doesn't matter that much, if you using a ripped lander or your own because after a couple of days you can see your landers used by others with the help of intelligence tools around. When you are using a ripped lander, just make sure to remove all the lander protection and callbacks.

What's the lander protection and callbacks you're talking about , and how can I remove them ?

Thanks
