Gonna Start Some Serious PPV Campaigns. (12)
Kia ora Stackers,
Ran a few PPV campaigns sometime back on Lead Impact, direct linking with limited success.
As it seems to be the most talked about subject in the forum, thought I might give it a serious workout this time.
Couple of questions I have:
1) Is there still a good dollar to be made in this vertical or has every man and his dog climbed onboard and killed it.
2) Will run this time with Landing Pages, so would appreciate a heads up on the best type of hosting I would need
and from where I can get it - enough to handle 500k impressions a day ( I wish )
As usual appreciate any answers.
Cheers,
Murray.
PS:Kia ora is a Māori language greeting which has entered New Zealand English. It means literally "be well/healthy".
I don't think its possible to kill every vertical on every type of advertising but thats just my thought. You can try storm on demand they have some nice servers.
1. Absolutely. I'd say stay away from major populated niches on PPV. You know a niche is completely packed when the URL targets cost 0.25$+. That's not to say there's no money to be made, but it's somewhere you don't want to be when starting fresh.
2. Honestly any VPS with any company you like. You can always upgrade within a days time.
Hey Murray,
seems like we soon can do some mastermind sessions together, huh ;-) I tried almost all of the famous PPV niches with limited success. You have either to come up with your own angles or have a tight budget to gather data.
I am more and more sure that the traditional "just pop over your lander" doesn't work that great anymore. I see quite smart landers (mostly dynamic) in the auto insurance/warranty niche or paths mining personal data.
As stackman said, any VPS does the job. I am currently with Storm On Demand and a cloud VPS which works great so far. Don't go with any kind of shared hosting as you will lose your money. Also invest the $300 into cpvlab which will save you time and money.
Good luck and hook me up on skype soon 
Thanks guys for all your responses, appreciate your help.
@ Manuel - will catch up on Skype later today 4 a chat.
Murray.

Its fine to host your tracker and landing pages on the same server as long as your not doing huge volumes. I dont have any experience with hostgators VPS and I have not come across it in discussions with other affiliates. I suggest having a chat with their online sales rep and getting some details about volume testing and responsiveness.
Low Latency (delay before pages start loading) is the critical element for PPV - but its very difficult to measure unless you are comparing it with something else.
I use hostgator shared hosting for seo / social media as the speed of response is not that critical.
For PPV i use Storm on Demand. Beyond hosting also comes highly recommended and they have a prosper202 and cpvlab package as well where they will do the install for you.
I'm sure hostgator will do any installs you need. They're support is phenomenal.
Storm On Demand is the affiliates choice no question, everywhere i go people recommend them.

@ nick what I meant was - is there still a good dollar to be made with PPV, as it seems every working affiliate is now doing it.
^^
That's because it's one of the top traffic sources with such relaxed rules
