Extremely Low CTR On POF (6)

Extremely Low CTR On POF

Ever since starting out a couple weeks ago, I have ben getting an EXTREMELY low CTR on POF and it seems every image I test can't get over .1% CTR. In fact, most of the time my average CTR is around.03-.05% MAX, yesterday I had a horrendous .01-.02%.

The funny thing is, I am getting conversions, I have a good converting offer but my only problem so far has been getting decent CTR. So far, I have been only using 110x80's and haven't tried any banners. So what's the secret of the guys getting a CTR of almost 1%? What can I do to get my CTR by a LOT? Since that's what I need lol!

Any help is appreciated!

I'm not currently running ads on POF, but I did log into my spy profile a few days ago to check out what the current landscape was, and there were barely any POF affiliate ads.

Mostly branded stuff through Adwords. The POF ads were only in a handful of pages within the site, and I only saw the 110x80. Didn't see any ads at all on the mobile side (mobile site, not app).

So, perhaps they are reworking things a bit on their end?

That's what I'm afraid of, that not only is my CTR affected by that, but also my volume and CPM. I am getting more and more unsure about sticking to POF instead of selling my account and moving on.

I wouldn't sell my account seeing how you can't make new ones anymore, but I'd definitely look into other traffic sources until things get back to normal there.

Yeah I'm thinking on moving on for sure, in fact I don't think things will get "normal" like they used to in a long time, if at all. Pretty much everyone are extremely unsure about POF's future right now.
