What should I be doing? (20)

---

Hi guys,

For the last 2 years I have mainly focussed on Adult (tube) advertising and generating profits by signing my visitors up to (adult) dating sites.
While I make good money out of it it just doesn't feel right.
All the adult dating sites are fake with fake profiles, fake messages, and just in place to RIP people of.
I have tried signing my visitors up to mainstream dating sites, but the conversion rates were SO much lower.
Sometimes I think people just want to be scammed...
They know darn well that what they sign-up to is BS.

Anyway, I want to switch the playground and dive into other things.
My question therefore is, what should I be doing right NOW.

Of course there are short-term things and long-term but I want to know about all of them.
Sometimes I read stories from people just starting out (1 year or so) making $1000+ profit per day , and not just for one day.

I have the technical knowledge and the experience of the last 2 years.

Can anybody suggest and explain what I should be doing?
My goal for the upcoming 6 months would be $10k profit per month, which shouldn't be that hard.

Thanks!
~Dennis

mobile app installs, browsers,games etc, perfectly ethical

---

totally agree with craigm. just to add 1 more hot vertical "Pin submit".

---

Pin submits are scam from a large part too, nothing for him based on the initial post.

---

Thanks guys, but the answers you gave me won't get me anywhere.
I added the line "Can anybody suggest and explain what I should be doing?" for a reason

There are to many things I can do, and I want to pick one.
For that I need the resources, motivation on why etc.

And not to offend anyone, but I'm not waiting for suggestions from people who make barely a profit or are just in reading stage...

---

Maybe you should make a list of "nicknames" that are allowed to reply in your thread then

---

I do ok in mobile app installs

---

If you want to run legit campaigns I would focus on mobile.

There is a lot of room to scale and app installs, games, lead-gen etc are all ethical.

I would start with the mobile cookbook by Caurmen and move from there.

Keep in mind though it won't be easy and you need to put in a lot of time and effort.

Also I would suggest starting your follow along thread so we can give you some input.

---

I'm still a noob but I've decided to stick to app installs - not sure which niche tho. Maybe I'm a sucker but not keen on pin submits they look like scams and I'm pretty sure there aren't any milfs looking to bang 3 miles away.

---

Thanks for the advice, I will look into it.
But on the other side, I'm very interested to know what other buy guys are doing.
I don't need their campaigns and traffic sources/spots , but a little direction would be appreciated.

-I don't want to start with something when there isn't much knowledge/support in here.
-I don't want to find out when I'm at $300 profit per day that scaling is really really hard and that I should focus on something else.

---

Not saying that mobile isn't worth it as I have absolutely ZERO experience in that field, but Facebook has been serving me extremely well for a while now....just sayin'

---

But doing what on FB?

---

Gaming on Facebook is one of the cleanest verticals you can get into. Indeed, gaming (computer games not gambling) is a very clean vertical generally - it's where I made my first significant money in paid traffic AM, and obviously our very own Zeno is a bit of an expert in the area!

---

Thanks Caurmen!

It's not that I'm after the cleanest vertical to go after. But let met at least contribute to a better world instead of sending people to fake profile websites.

---

Completely understood! IMO, making sure you're running a vertical that you're comfortable with is very important - otherwise it can contribute to all kinds of internal resistance issues that can generally make your life worse.

If you really want to contribute to a better world, CPA offers for charities are a thing.

I've never run them, but I know some of the charities out there have affiliate programs. And I know people who make a decent living running fundraising for charities IRL, so the online equivalent MIGHT be doable...

Games are probably easier to push, though!

---

The majority of pay per call lead gen is extremely ethical. Other than tech support, which can be a bit in the grey area, if you want to work with some big name brands, learn mobile click to call, and start driving revenue, I'd consider it. It's peak season for pay per call financial offers right now just before the Holidays, a lot of money to be made in the next month.

---

Thank you for your answer. However, I'm trying to find out what others are doing right now.
Most of the answers given above are things I could do, but almost none of them is doing it themself.
Pretty odd if you ask me.

So what does this mean? Is the majority not making money (at all) ?
Or don't they want to tell what they are doing themselfs because of competition?

---

I've seen a few replies so far from members and friends running what they told you to run
So they are doing it themselves right now.

Mobile is new, and is BIG. There's so many traffic sources and unique advantages at the moment.

---

Well, that could be interpretated many ways.
It doesn't say you have to scam people or send people to bad offers to make money.
It's kinda lame and just stating that the person who does this just doesn't know any better on what to do else.(I'm pointing to myself)

The rich people I know do have some arrogance over them self.
They are hard to others and indeed most of the time not nice at all.
But I don't want to end up like this and I believe there are also rich people who are genuinly nice.

---

I've been doing app-installs for a long time and still going strong at it
