Problem setting up Monetizer. (12)

Problem setting up Monetizer.

Hello,

I have been trying to setup Monetizer as a way to redirect and monetize a part of my traffic.

I did follow their FAQ but it seems that Monetizer doesn't record impressions and conversions, and the support as been unable to help, I quote:
"Hi XXXXXX, I’ll be honest I’ve never worked with Voluum so the amount of help I can give you will be limited, This is the process I believe:"

Then I followed that process but it didn't solve my problem. This is why I am looking for help in here

My Voluum is linked to a CNAME/domain name: xx.yyyyy.com
My monetizer account is linked to a A Record: aa.yyyyy.com (The value is the IP adress of the monetizer account).
I did add my voluum postback into my monetizer account, and finally I did create an offer into voluum with the link provided by Monetizer ending by {clickid}
in order to follow the number of impressions/conversions of Monetizer into voluum.

All of this provided me different forms of "promotion methods", I chose the back button redirect. It gives me a script that I add in the <head> of my landers.

I then ran a few campaigns with those landers, but the problem is, when clicking on the back button of any internet browser, it doesn't redirect me.
Could you please give me any advices on how to make this work?
I don't understand where my mistake comes from. Maybe I should create a campaign with the offer I created in voluum? Or link my Monetizer account to an other domain name?
Or maybe there is some scripts into my landers conflicting with my monetizer script?

Any help is welcome!

I hope to hearing from you soon.

Try {clickID} and a direct link for promotion methods, set up an offer in Voluum using that link. Then use Voluum to route any traffic you wish to redirect to that offer.

Thanks andy for your answer, however, I am not sure I understood well ... Could you elaborate a little more please?

Sure...

The Cname/A records you have set for Monitizer/Voluum look ok.

Voluum postback in Monitizer is good.

For the offer in Voluum, use {clickID} instead of {clickid}.

Use a direct link as a promotional method, take that link and set up an offer in Voluum.

Set up a rule in Voluum that sends any traffic you do not want to go to your main offer to go to the offer containing the monitizer link.

Capish? If not reply and I'll help you!

If you're trying to use the Monetizer back button script, you'll need to modify the code so that it goes to your Voluum campaign link instead. As it is, it's set to go straight to the Monetizer platform, of course.

I see, yes I would like to use the monetizer back button script. Could you tell me how to modify the script please?

First of all - do you have backbutton code on your existing lander?

If not, try putting this code on your lander:

<script type="text/javascript">
window.history.replaceState(null, '', window.location.pathname+"#!/back");
window.history.pushState(null, '', "back.html");

window.addEventListener("popstate", function() {
if(location.hash === "#!/back"){
setTimeout(function() {location.replace("YOUR_AFFLOW_LINK"); }, 0);
}
}, false);
</script>
Then, from your afflow interface where you've created your link, grab the "Direct Link" (NOT the "Backbutton Redirect" Link), and paste it into the above code to replace "YOUR_AFFLOW_LINK".

This should work.

Of course, if you already have backbutton code on your lander, then just put the "Direct Link" to replace the existing url, whatever it is right now.

See, this is why I have this STM membership. For some odd reason this old lander I'm testing wasn't working with my existing back button script. So I'm like maybe there's sumpin on STM about a new script. Ba BAM! Works great, added it right after my vibration script. Thanks Amy!

My pleasure! For more useful code snippets for landers, see this thread by my good friend Mia:

I found traffic on chrome has a block on the JS - its labeled as unsafe script... anyone seeing this?
