My stable year - 7 figures a month! (17)

My stable year - 7 figures a month!

Hi guys,

For you of those I don’t know, my name is Hen Kinan and I have been a member on STM since 2014.

I have been an affiliate for the past 6-7 years, in different niches; from toolbars to E-com, to mobile content and CPLs. But, as things tend to do in this industry, one day, I realized that things have gotten a little too aggressive for my tastes.

We’ve all been there. We used to make thousands of dollars, just to realize the traffic we sent is fraud & get a huge charge-back. (yea ok, we used to see that the conversion rate is a bit high but both us and the advertiser/affiliate network ignored it)
After few months like that, it felt like we were chasing our own tail, and so, 2+ years ago we decided to come up with a solution that would be more sustainable and reliable. From an “easy money now” mindset we decided to move to a long-term operation.

Just like everybody else, we were using spy tools to get a better understanding of the market. We would get all sorts of results, and just like everybody else, one type of result we always ignored was viral content. It was literality everywhere we looked
That line of thought led us to found SHINEz.

We used all our knowledge as affiliates (A lot of it thanks to STM & AWC) to start building this, connected dots and added a strong tech team.
My team is build from 24 employees in Tel-Aviv, 20 content writers WW & 3 developer in Russia. (For the moment
We are generating 7 figures a month for some times now, all white-hat and big % on Facebook.

SHINEz, the company we’ve built over the past two years, offers powerful new tools which allow affiliates like us to generate profit just by promoting viral content.
On this AWE Barcelona I’m going to be presenting a few concrete case studies, with real numbers, and hope to let people in on the huge potential this vertical offers. If you’re looking to make profit of viral content, I think my speech will be a game-changer for you.

See you all soon!!!

Cheers,
Kinan

I wish this year I could attend the AWE to listen to him. I have been accepted into SHINEz but figuring out it still now. Already spent a few hundred dollars of FB Ads but with negative ROI for the time being. But I am still at learning stage and hope to make it profitable. @kinan need your help here.

Thats so awesome mate! Big ups for taking a positive path and pioneering out a solid vertical!

Will definitely be checking your speech out

And I too can vouch for Hen, we have never worked together but everytime I've randomly crossed paths with him at events he is welcoming with a huge smile and a friendly conversation, only ever hear great things from others too.

Checked out your site, doesn't tell me much. Is there a detailed description of how your system works for an affliate?

Hi mate,

Its not really Networks (that think you mean too) more SSP's like - Appnexus, OpenX, Districtm etc
And to be honest, It took us long time to get them on board so its just about being consistent!

Hope it help a bit!

And if any are coming to AWA, I will be more than happy to share more in person

We do accept Native traffic, we have a specific issue with accepting Taboola.
More accurate, Taboola don't allow to run our domains from different Taboola accounts.
