Need Help Choosing The Traffic Source: FB ads vs Adwords

Hey guys!

I need advice from the experienced players. I'm just starting with affiliate marketing and trying to decide which traffic source to choose. Choosing between FB ads and Adwords.

I have experience with both of them. I ran campaigns for local businesses.

What do you think, which traffic source is the best to start?
What are the best white hat verticles for affiliate marketing noobs to get involved in (except dropshipping)?

Thank you!

Adwords has the best traffic that exists, but also the most expensive. FB offers amazing targeting options, allowing you to target very "locally" and match the interests. I found it easier to sell physical products with adwords, but in order for it to work, usually you need VERY high margins.

FB is the hottest source for dropshipping campaigns right now, as you probably figured out already.

Try to look for legit leagen offers, horoscopes, questionaires/market research or some giveaways, legit crypto offers are still good to run on adwords (not sure about FB after the ban), some clickbank or other info products could work too. There are also affiliate offers based on the ecom model, though with lower margin ... might be a good testing ground before diving into it yourself.

Pretty much all networks will have some leadgen, you can use the tool described in this thread to get enrolled to multiple networks at once : https://stmforum.com/forum/showthrea...shing-1-button

And it's always a good idea to use tools like odigger or offervault to find networks with the verticals you are looking for.

Lots of B2B and B2C lead gen on shareasale.com, linkshare.com, cj.com, maxbounty.com...that are completely whitehat and worth checking out.

Thank you, Vortex and Matuloo!

Probably I will start a follow-along thread once I decide the vertical and the traffic source.
