Direct linking doesn't work anymore. I am following Amy's 40 day tutorial too and I'd recommend you to progress as fast as you can to get to the landing page section.

Hmm This offer was recommend by AM as it was easy to convert because of easy 1 click flow. I did spy on Adplexity but did not find any lander to match with offer.

Or i guess i should move to other offers with LPs then.

You really need to use LPs these days, otherwise it won't work.

You don't even need an LP that would directly match the offer. The key is to heat the user up and make them wanna register/signup for whatever comes next. It's about making them believe they are about to get access to something special that is simply not available under normal circumstances. So a limited deal, time restricted, age restrcited, "banned" in specific country etc ... you can use some kind of a warning page or something like that. Just make sure you grab the attention of the user.

Hmm You gave me good advise which i was missing as initially.
Also with such low payout offer would be worth time to make it profitable? Or should i focus atleast 1.5$ + offers with landing pages on Pop Traffic?
Your experience would be helpful. @matuloo

Hey!

Offers with low payouts can give you profit. That's easy, cheap payouts = cheap GEO. In POP I would focus now on Tier 2-3 countries, as for EG $0.27 is very low, cause in this GEO I have offers with $1+ payout. So try also to split test at least 3 offers. Better to use several networks.

As for 1-click offers, sometimes it's really better to use direct linking, but to split test LP is always nice.

Apologies for my late reply! AWE + playing catchup + falling ill for 1.5 weeks + other stuff has thrown off my work schedule.


As RAYA Telecom - Egypt already has 3x Payout spent, I cut down considering Offer only allows Vodafone Egypt.
Would it be possible to just target Vodafone Egypt?

Also, the ROI for IOS devices looks promising.

If you can whitelist Vodafone Egypt + IOS, then expand your targeting to RON and cut placements, there's a chance that this campaign can be profitable.

It is true that direct-linking to direct carrier billing offers is a lot less likely to be profitable than before, but if you have very good relationship with an AM that will ONLY alert you to the best offers AND you run at a less-competitive traffic source that has quality traffic, you may still be able to make it work. My advice in general is to just treat these offers as a practice though - and that you progress to using landing pages as soon as possible.

Thanks for providing all those screenshots!

I'm completely new to pop ads as well but I was reading somewhere in an old post that you need to set up infrastructure to increase loading time on the landing page. Any idea on how to do this? I was thinking of using Zeropark as the traffic source and Voluum for the tracking.

With an intrusive ad format such as pops, you really need to make sure your LPs load as fast as possible. You only have a VERY short time to grab the attention of the user, so the last thing you want is your LPs loading slowly. You should aim for loading times under 1 sec, some say even less so about 500ms.

Basically, you need to clean the code and make as short as possible and you need fast hosting, preferably close to your target audience or a CDN.

There are several threads regarding this, you can start here: https://stmforum.com/forum/showthrea...osting-and-CDN

Thanks for the info! Would you say pop is still the best method for newbies in 2019 or is Push now a better traffic source?

Push can bring better results and it has way more volume than pops, but it's very volatile and the campaigns can have way different performance from one day to the next.

POPs are cheaper and somewhat more stable, but there are way more bots...

Hard to pick a winner here. Based on my personal experience, push is a bit easier to make profits with and it's possible to scale profitable campaigns with it.

In case you are totally new to AM, it might be a good idea to learn the very basics with POPs and save some money, and then move into push to get some volume and possibly profits flowing.

^ Absolutely agree with this!

Push is very similar to pop - basically it's pop + you need to create an ad on top of a landing page.

What some people do is use the cheaper pop traffic to test offers and landers for less cost, then take the best combination to push.

There are affiliates succeeding at both pop and push. Some find push easier, some find pop easier.

At any rate, like matuloo pointed out, it would be good to start with pop (the 40-day tutorial would be perfect for this), then start testing ads on push.
