CPA on Adwords

Hi There

I was wondering if it was still possible to do CPA on Adwords? I want to send traffic to a senior dating offer.

I can't see how direct linking would be possible, as this require putting in your affiliate redirect link, and you would be met with the error message:

'destination url must match display url'

Is it still possible to promote this type of offer on Adwords, and how would you do it?? What is your chance of being banned?

Thanks

you can run dating direct without issue.....

The only issue being is if they dont like the dating page they are gonna make you change it....which you cant do....

they allow for a tracking url just put in the end destination url

HI PolarBacon

Thanks.

Maybe I misunderstand you, but I can't put in the end destination url, as it means my clicks won't be tracked by the affiliate networks. Say, for example I'm promoting seniorfriendsfinder.com, and I put http://www.seniorfriendsfinder.com in as the destination url, then my clicks won't be tracked by the CPA network. How do I get this round this? Maybe it's not even possible?

Thanks

ok, thanks PolarBacon. I'm sure the last time I tried the above I got the message 'display does not match destination url.' I was using a Clickbank hoplink. Sadly, I also got banned for eternity, as Adwords didn't like the Clickbank offer :-(

your never banned for eternity......there is always a way around the banning.....

There is alot they don't like.....but just be smart about what you try to do and you shouldn't have any issues....

stay away from anything that is work form home or free trial......and don't run bridge pages....

the main issue is most cases.... if they take issue with what you are running you have to change the page...NOT the url.....so that is the risk....cuz most aff stuff you can't change....

so you can make a "dating content" like a blog with reviews of dating sites and drive traffic to each lp....most cases as long as the site has depth to it and looks real your good to go....

but with dating most cases its ok to run direct.....BUT always control the link....so that there is a tracker YOUR tracker in between the networks tracking link and google...as networks tracking links go down all the time...and that will fuck up your account pretty quick.....even if the camp is deleted
