My tests

Hi all,

After reading your guide. I ve decided to test Mobipium Smartlink.

here are my results

Luckily I was at positive ROI from the day 1 from a geo. Than I started to grind that to see if it performs same on other days as well.

Nothing beats seeing great results from day 1, but don't get too carried away, there is a long road ahead

Quite often, it's hard to keep the solid performance with increased volume, so I'm really curious to see how it's gonna perform for you in the coming days.

Wish you all the best,
Matej.

Thanks for the advice

I am about to get a tracker, since there are lots of impressions, is Voluum ok with these kind of offers? Here in their support page https://doc.Voluum.com/en/event_in_voluum.html is the note below:

"Voluum Note: Impressions can be recorded but are not included in the billed events, meaning that tracking impressions does not deplete your pricing plan's event quota."

So those impressions are not be counted right?

No, direct-link impressions are counted as events in Voluum. I get your question because impressions mean different things depending on context, but on Voluum direct-link impressions count against your event quota.

Nice job with the green campaign. Did you scale it yet?

As long as the visit is routed through a campaign link, it does count towards the quota. That's why the more expensive trackers are not very suitable for campaigns that work with millions of visits.

The impressions mentioned in the voluum doc are about something else. Some networks support ad impression tracking, so the number of times a banner is shown to their visitors. But these are not actual visits, since they are not actually sent to your campaigns, they just see the ad. This function is meant to help you keep cost tracking more accurate with ad networks that bill on the CPM model.

Not yet because I couldn't setup the tracker properly yet. Just testing it in the same Geo for some hours and days of the week. Sometimes it gets weird enough

Yesterday 7000 impressions 11 conversions. 80 percent less than the previous day.

Using a tracker like Voluum, that charges by traffic volume, for running something like this, really isn't ideal - because the huge traffic required to make relatively small profit margin will make tracker costs prohibitively-high.

In other words, you'll likely be paying more in tracker costs than any profits you make. (Which is why I didn't include the tracker when writing the guide.)

The Mobipium push smartlink is great for newbies to get their feet wet, but once you have a bit of experience in setting up campaigns, I would high recommend learning how to promote "actual" offers using landing pages (to presell visitors). Then you won't be faced with the same issue of making relatively small profits from the massive traffic volume.
