Hello guys,
I need to quickly explain my question as it may sound stupid for some people in here.
I totally believe in affiliate marketing and how it can change your life if you do the required steps to reach the top.
I joined STM less than a month ago, I decided to take media buying seriously this time as i'm done with SEO and constant google's changes. I know if I put the same effort in here, I will do much better.
I launched my first 5 campaigns 4 days ago, I spent $120 and made $40 which is not bad at all, I was so happy with the result as I know it takes time, effort & constant testing till you find a winner, I was expecting to lose money for sure, and I'm also sure that I will lose little bit more, till I crack the code.
My question is:
I decided to start with Adult Vertical. (Mobile - Spanish - JuicyAds) as it could be less crowded for me as newbie in the paid traffic world.
When I was creating my creatives, writing all that bullshit on my banners, I was thinking, There's NO way in the world I would ever click on those banners or believe the shit they say.
No credit card, This is not a Not a dating site, Your wife will never know, This site is banned, F**k ugly granny, I'm 5Km away, you may see people you know, watch this before you J*rk, are you willing to fuck ugly milf with big ugly shity boobs ? HELL NO!, and all that bullshit.
For me its extremely ridiculous and stupid to believe any of that shit.
How can I put my heart in something that I don't personally believe in. I don't use dating sites, I never did, thanks to my beautiful gf, but even If i was single or married and visited those sites or saw those banners, I still don't click, because I know its bullshit.
Do I need to bullshit people to make money online ? do all these offers that we promote help people for real? do those boys who clicked and registered get laid for real? do they lick clean pus*y as a lot of the current landers say ?
I wish I can change my mentality so I can believe in it more, which will boost my success rate for sure.
Is it all about the money ?
Do I need to care about the person behind the screen ?
I'm saying all the because I believe that if one of those bullshit lines that we write in banners was true, I don't think any of us will have a hard time selling this offer, it will sell it self because its REAL.
I hope my question didn't sound stupid, Its just my mentality that could be a problem in my future AM career, I just need your help to clear my mind on this point please.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Jordan
Why don't you focus on making money with something you DO believe in?
There are sooooo many niches you can chose from. The adult niche is just one of them.
Take a step back and figure out what kind of ads do interest you and start there.
For some people it is just about the money. For others they prefer to feel good about what they promote.
Either way you do need to shift your mindset a bit. What you would click is not necessarily what the general public would click or engage with. I'd recommend reading Cashvertizing it will give you a better understanding about why ads are created the way they are.
Thanks for the advice Mr.Green
Honestly, when most people are on a porn site trying to do teir "thing", they are very aroused so they won't be thinking nearly as logically as when they're "cold", so when they are so horny they would be much more likely to click on whatever gives them the hint of sex. Most of the time it's not even the headline that attracts them, but rather the images.
