InMobi bad beginner traffic source? (7)

InMobi bad beginner traffic source?

I'm following the Mobile cookbook, which recommends a daily spend of $7.

I am setting up a campaign in Brazil on InMobi. They, as well as many other traffic sources, recommend a daily spend for each campaign to be $20 ($160/day for 8 campaigns using the Mobile cookbook). Is this normal, or should I go with a smaller traffic source?

I have the budget to work with that, but just wanted to check if noobs should be starting on those types of traffic sources. This is my first offer, so I'm in the testing phase.

For some sources they do have higher minimums due to their system structure.

For others they may say $20 but you can get away with lower.

It doesn't mean these sources are bad for beginners.

If you are tracking data properly, I would just combine the campaigns by carrier or placement, or both, giving 2 or 1 campaign. As long as on the backend you can drilldown and distinguish between site / app placements (depends on source tokens) and wifi/carrier traffic, you should be OK.

Unfortunately, it appears that inmobi does not have tracking enabled by default, which I didn't figure out until AFTER I deposited $300 there.

I've submitted multiple contacts to their support email, and can't get a reply at all.

Does anyone have a legitimate contact there? Honestly, at this point, considering how frustrated I have been with them, I'd rather just get a refund of my deposit and place it elsewhere.

I wouldn't say Facebook and Adwords is a beginner traffic source. You have to cloak, you'll get banned a few times etc.
And YeahMobi is a CPA Network actually.

@pkadvertising
At Inmobi you can only start tracking publishers after $2000 spent.

As a beginner myself, I'm still struggling a bit finding the right source.
You can try Leadbolt.
