CTR/EPCs went down a lot, get quickly red flagged (4)
Hello fellow STMrs,
I really really need an advise from you guys as I have been bleeding tons of cash recently and don't really have an idea what I can do about my campaigns. So I'm pretty desperate in finding a solution and if theres anyone who knows of a service/expert that can have a look at my problem I would be very grateful and willing to pay for a referral. Or maybe a tool to check how healthy is the domain / path IP with inbox notifications.
I have a bunch of landers and since recently I have very low click through rate on them. I have changed server IP's , domain names, redirect domain names, tracking software- though its still getting very low click through rate to the offer pages on the same traffic channels comparing to what it used to get a few months ago (Im in touch with a few affiliates that run the same stuff on the same channels - we have an agreement not to go into a bidding war against each other, and they say that thing are working well for them), I also noticed that Google Chrome marked one of the URLs (the whole path including index.html) as a phishing site very quickly after I switched to a new account with Beyond hosting (different domain/IP etc)- like 7 days, although the domain itself is not red flagged (checked with mxtoolbox.com - I have a paid subscription with them ) The conversion rate on the offers also went down a lot - my AMs say EPCs stay pretty high for other affiliates but mine went down (so I was thinking they flagged the redirect domain and it goes to a blank page when a visitor clicks through)- I run consistently with 4-5 networks to secure some cap , so all of the AM wont lie at the same time. Im using a self hosted version of
I thought that G red flagged the content on the website so if I get a new domain, a new IP new hosting etc its still goes to dump. Do you think that using a encoding the content would help ? I personally doubt because G has very sophisticated technologies but if you have a different opinion please share - I would very much appreciate any input.
I have talked to a bunch of AMs at big networks and some high volume affiliates and some suggested to change the tracker. I got a subscription with
Any advise would be highly appreciated !
Not sure why this was in the AWC section (was hidden as needed approval!). Moved to main forum, bump!

Whether split testing your trackers could make a difference, it is hard to say, since I don't really know what you are running or what your stats look like or whether you are running white hat or black hat, but it certainly is worth a try.
Cmdeal, I primarily run cc submits, and continuity type of offers. I would assume that once a domain gets reported or something , G wont allow people see the content of the website from Chrome and I would assume that Chrome shares domain/ IP data with Mozilla etc. I have already tested through Vouum - didnt do any difference , still same shit- low CTR/ EPCs . So I wouldnt think its the tracker but will be testing with
Do you guys know any experts that do website analysis ? Just got a paid subscribtion with Browser Stack for cross browser testing but cant seem to find a feature that would run a URL through all the browsers and OSs and report which ones dont work . With BrowserStack I have to manually run each time.
Thanks
