Hello Experts....
I'm still new and learning everyday....
I'm running few sweepstakes in Popads and popcash....
and need to learn how to optimize .... first step is I need to learn how to cut poor conversion site. Please help me out how I can do that?
Is there any tutorial video?
Please see this thread for a tool you can use to cut placements:

However, I'd suggest that in the beginning, your focus should be on getting more traffic for testing offers and landers, i.e. only cut the very bad placements to avoid cutting traffic which would slow down your testing. Once you've found a good offer and a good lander, i.e. you're close enough to break even, then use that tool from the post above to cut placements that aren't giving you your minimum acceptable ROI (e.g. 30%).
Hope that helps!

Hi Votex,
Thanks for the information. Yes I had your good calculation system earlier and using it already... And still need to learn more optimizing the campaign.... such as like white-list and black-list. Basically if I run the pop ads and capture the site id and never convert from the site, then I need to exclude the site id if I run another campaign again. And I need to know how I can do this... I always do many tweaking campaign (like AB Split tests) make it best conversion result, but I need to know how to make a blacklist and whitelist for my own campaign. Please help me out....
@alexbaik - sounds like you're overthinking things a bit!
You don't need to use complex blacklist and whitelist rules. If you follow Vortex's system you'll be doing all the optimisation you need, and you won't risk cutting off all your traffic as you will by over-optimising.
Focus on getting something that works well across a lot of placements first!
As a side note, I wouldn't recommend automatically blacklisting placements across all campaigns if they don't convert on one. Different placements respond to different angles.
Keep this in mind when cutting sources by default !
