Promoting International Dating offers on FB

First post is a question!

the international dating scene has always been a place where i wanted to test out some campaigns!

Stuff which i've noted down.

1. Intl traffic is cheap. (.06 CPM)
2. a good ctr essentially mean free traffic.
3. there are a few international dating offers, especially for asian countries.

Stuff which i heard, which cannot be verified, which needs answers.

1. intl dating doesn't convert. (not true!)
2. dating sites like be2 are BANNED on facebook (isn't it the most stable/legit one?)
3. unlike US/CA/AU/Uk offers, split testing with multiple images, blah blah doesnt work. (seriously!)

I was planning to run be2 in asian countries. EWA has that offer.

Can i get some serious inputs as to how i can start off?

First off, welcome to STM forums!

Second, why do you think split testing in Asia doesn't work? Split testing is vital to all aspects of affiliate marketing.

Otherwise, unless you speak the language, you will probably have to get your ad copy's translated. Find someone that speaks the language well, so they know the dialect and things don't get lost in translation. Some things sound different in English than in different languages. English has a lot of slang, and that needs to surely transpose to the other languages you will be using in your ads.

Matt,

I read somewhere that the regular split testing mode wont work. and the exclamation beside the 'seriously" should have been a question mark

normally, i tend to split test at least 20 images and ad copies. would that be decent?

also, would you suggest CPM or CPC bids? i was thinking split testing both but in the end CPM is always cheaper

as for translation, i have a friend who speaks the local language, will get his help.

Be2 offers are saturated now. If you get at least 10% conversion rate then it will be profitable for you if you bid on CPC.
CPM didn't work for me

be2 saturated? sure?

For me at least!!!
You can definitely try them out. As long as, You get descent CTR. Clicks are cheap in Asian countries.
Good Luck...

Hi,

I run be2 internationally on FB. Just got some other ads approved. I do use a LP, so no direct linking for me. To much problems with the ip redirects
Not converting...yes absolutely true...EVERYBODY...stop promoting international dating...keep your money in your pocket...........Trust me...it converts!

About the split testing...testing is always better, but...keep in mind that a LOT of int demos are to small to split test your ads for some days. When you are finished testing. Everybody has seen your pics...

thanks for the info mate. what kinda conversion rates are you seeing with Be2 offers in the intl market?

Don't take advice from "well I read this" or "I hear that guys can't make it work" when starting a new campaign

Just go in and do it.. There are far more dating offers out there than just Be2. And yes, intl dating traffic works like a gem. It's cheap and profitable.
And a lot of the offers have clean databases

Depends on country and the offer offcourse, but about 12-20%...and don't forget Be2 isn't a quick reg offer, the visitor has to finish a lot of questions...so some offers will convert much better. But on the other hand...The Be2 payout is one of the best

thanks guys.

i'm gonna test the offer soon. will get back to you with the results

did an initial test,

sent around 100 clicks, got one conversion.

CTR = 0.1%
CPM = 0.03
CPC = 0.03

my ad wasn't too good, it did not really explain what the user had to do. i'll duplicate the image and i'll run it
