Switzerland is a pretty small GEO with expensive traffic, but the offer payouts are usually high too. I would recommend to target older people (at least use older women for banners), there are offers that pay very high rates for 30+ members. And these guys also convert good

TJ is a good choice, testing more LPs is a good idea too... keep the data coming in and post when you have more conversions

Yeah CH is a very small country and typically a hard one to scale without spending considerable $$$. Many guys i know work the DE/AT/CH angle instead of just CH.

Yup, targeting DACH is a common thing to do, german language works fine in all of them. CH and AT are small, but its easier to keep good quality in them, DE has massive volume but quality problems are way more common here.

Yup, so far you don't have enough data to really do anything. But the fact that you actually got some conversions and didn't loose anything, makes me believe you started with a decent funnel and should be able to optimize this into profit Good job.

I know TJ is a good source, but i believe if volume of traffic is the problem, why not expand to different sources and at such, you can have more sources to get traffic from , steady source to give the right data for any decision making........

I'd really recommend you skip CH untill you have DE or AT sorted out and get winner campaigns there.

CH has some really "old" offers running, which are not in any affiliate network and the merchants buy traffic on their own.
These merchants have outstanding relations with the billing partners (namely telecom operators) and they are able to do a lot of nasty shit that is not allowed on standard contracts.
Its impossible to compete with a compliant offer, when your competition runs and offer that has no confirmation option or bills them 2x higher than declared rate.

Bottom line:
Be conservative when testing on CH, rather test on DE/AT and try scaling on CH.

The OP is running dating campaigns, from what you said the competitor is using carrier billing so they will be targeting 3G traffic mostly - so they shouldn't directly compete and on top of that, nobody can ever buy ALL the traffic there is in one GEO. For dating, wifi is good enough, so I don't think it's a bad idea to start dating in CH.

Don't test too many landers if you're spending $10/day, your data won't be significant.

Just pick one BEST lander + one BEST offer.

Spying would help you with this.

You are correct and I stand corrected.
I assumed the OP was talking about mobile, and based my answer on that , given the information I have on the CH mobile market.

However you assumed that I meant only carrier billing. In CH there are some really lucrative MO flows running, which among other things also optin users thru normal rate non-premium numbers and then later on upsell them on premium sms routes. So its not limited to DCB or carrier traffic The competition I was talking about is not limited to 3G traffic.

I've never ran any traffic myself in CH as an affiliate, the only test we did is spent around 1k$ trying to get an offer optimised on the billing end for our client before turning it over to him. The results were disastrous and the offer was not handed over. Upon detailed investigation of the CH mobile billing market we got information from a really high ranking source (high management from a certain carrier) about certain flow specifics which have a really high compliance risk, eg.. the company running themis getting penalties from regulator nonstop.

You have undoubtedly more experience running CH as an affiliate so I appreciate your comment and I stand corrected.

I should have actually expressed myself more clear too, I run dating mostly on desktop traffic, so there isn't much competition from carrier billing or MO offers at all And that's what I'd recommend to the OP too, focus on desktop traffic for the start.

I want to clear everyone , I am running Desktop traffic for this offer not Mobo traffic ,
THUGLIFE i appreciate your suggestion , I am investing 30$/day that's why using different Lander , as after testing i'll optimize winner LP
