Day 1: Applying to Various Networks (15)

---

***********************************

ACTION

Let's start off with some simple preparatory tasks - like registering for accounts, and getting into the right mindset.

But first - a disclaimer:

DISCLAIMER: Affiliate networks, traffic networks, and any other products/services I mention in this or other tutorials on STM, are my personal suggestions ONLY. They are not endorsed by STM. Please use these products/services at your own discretion and risk.




1)First of all, let's sign up to a few affiliate networks that are newbie-friendly, that have offers we can direct-link to without having to prepare landing pages.

I'll also suggest some sample answers for when you're filling out the applications. These suggested answers are based on the assumption that you're completely new to paid traffic and affiliate marketing. If you already have some experience, then please fill-in accurate and truthful information that reflect your actual experience level.





-Go to https://app.zeydoo.com/signUp. Fill out your contact information and click "Next".

-For the next set of questions, here are sample answers if you have zero experience running campaigns:



-Click "Sign Up" when done.

-You should receive an email from them in seconds. Click on the verification link within.

-You'll be asked to set up your password.

-After setting up your password, your account will be in pending status. You may see a chatbox popup that asks for more information about your experience and traffic sources, how long you've been in affiliate marketing, whether you have a PropellerAds account, etc. Here you can reply in the chat to increase your chances of getting accepted. Introduce yourself and talk about your aspirations and goals for affiliate marketing. Treat this like a job interview - convince the network that if they accept you and spend time working with you, that their efforts won't be in vain.

Spend some time crafting your message. Zeydoo has lots of great offers - they'd be worth your time.

-Zeydoo should reach out in the next days either via chat or email. They may ask you additional questions, and then they would either approve or reject you.

Please POLITELY inquire about the status of your application, and be patient in waiting for a response. AMs are busy people – most of them are taking care of affiliates practically 24/7 except when they’re sleeping. So be understanding and don’t hound them.

-Ask your AM for a list of their best offers that can convert on pop traffic WITHOUT using a pre-lander (i.e. offers that can convert when linked to directly), that have low payouts of below $1, preferably even below $0.50. Also ask them to share a list of top geos and mobile carriers for each offer - at the time I'm writing this they have offers that accept traffic from multiple geos, so we'd want to narrow down the number of geos to choose from. They may give you a link to an image like this:



Or they may just give you a list of geos and carriers in chat. Don't forget to ask them to approve the recommended offers for you!

-Lastly: In the Zeydoo interface, go to the Finance in the left menu > Billing settings and complete your billing information so you can get paid later. In the process, you will likely need to provide some sort of personal documents to confirm your identity.





-Go to http://publisher.haka.mobi/signup. Fill out the form asking for contact info and click "Submit".

-You should receive an email from them in seconds. Click on the verification link within.

-You'll be asked to set up your password. When you finish doing so you'll be directed to the affiliate dashboard.

-Click on "Offers" in the left sidebar menu. You should see the message "Your account is now pending approval! Before we approve you offers we would like to know a bit more about your traffic. Please fill in this and your account will be approved shortly." Click on the "form" button and you'll land on a google form. Fill that out. Below are suggested answers to some of the questions:

When done, click "Submit".

-Haka should reach out either by email or by skype. They may ask you additional questions, and then they would either approve or reject you.

If you don’t hear back in, say, a week, you can contact Shivang via skype: shivang-gude

Again, please be polite when inquiring about the status of your application - I've covered this above in the Zeydoo section.

-Ask your AM for a list of their best click2sms offers. Also ask them to share a list of top geos and mobile carriers - at the time I'm writing this they have offers that accept traffic from all geos, so we'd want to narrow down the number of geos to choose from. They may give you a link to a spreadsheet like this:



Or they may just give you a list of geos and carriers in chat. Don't forget to ask them to approve the recommended offers for you!

-Also ask your AM to set up your payment method with you so you can get paid later.





Some of you may have gone through the $1 Guide and already have an account with Mobipium - in which case you can skip this section.

Go to https://affiliates.mobipium.com/signup?origin=stm40day

(This is NOT an affiliate link. Mobipium just wants to track clicks so they’d know I’ve sent you.)

-Fill out the form.

For “Activity” choose “Media Buyer”.

For “Traffic” choose “Both”.

For “Vertical” choose “Carrier Billing”.

The rest of the fields are self-explanatory. When done click "SIGN UP".

-You should receive an email shortly, that has a confirmation link in it. Click on this link to verify your email.

-You should then receive an email with additional questions. Simply reply to the email with your answers.

Below are suggested answers to some of those questions. If they ask any other questions (because these questions can change), just answer honestly. They're friendly to newbies - just let them know you're following this tutorial so won't be bothering them with a ton of newbie questions.

(By the way - for convenience, affiliates and networks like to use 2-letter country codes instead of typing out entire country names. You can find them here:

https://www.worldatlas.com/aatlas/ctycodes.htm)

-Give Mobipium some time to get back to you. If for some reason you didn’t get an email containing an AM’s contact information, here are some Mobipium AMs you can contact on skype – again, please be polite and patient in waiting for a response:

-Ask your AM for a list of the "best 1-click carrier-billing offers from tier 3 and 4 geos, with payouts below $1, that allow pop traffic", and ask them to approve these offers for you.

-Also ask your AM to set up your payment method with you so you can get paid later.


(I may add more traffic networks in this section soon - please check back later.)



2)Sign up for accounts on several pop traffic networks. These are places we'll be buying the visitors, aka "paid traffic", from.




-Go to PropellerAds.

-Click on "Sign Up" at the top, and choose to sign up as an "Advertiser". When signing up for any traffic network, we need to sign up as an "Advertiser" and not a "Publisher". However, when signing up with affiliate networks, we need to sign up as a "Publisher" and not "Advertiser". Confusing, but two sides of the same coin.

-First page is just some personal contact information - only fields marked with stars (*) are mandatory. The rest are optional. When finished click "Next" to see more questions.

-Here are suggested answers to some of the questions:

-Accept the terms and conditions and click on "Sign up".

-Find the confirmation email from them and click on the link to activate your account.





-Go to PopAds. Click on "SIGN-UP".

-Most of the fields are self-explanatory. For "Account Type" select "Advertiser". Fill everything out, accept the terms, and click "Register".

-You'll receive an email from them - click on the confirmation link to activate your account.


(I may add more traffic networks in this section soon - please check back later.)





3)Lastly: If you haven't already, explore how this forum works by clicking into the various forum sections and subsections to check them out. Also read this post on how to contact STM if (God forbid) you ever get locked out of the forums (and save this information somewhere!)



***********************************

EXPLANATION

1)In this tutorial, we'll be running popunder/popover traffic - referred to as Pop Traffic in general - to CPA or cost-per-action offers.

If you're not familiar with what pop ads are, just go to any torrent site and click around until a full-page ad appears out of nowhere to take over your screen. Some of the most popular pop ads are push notification subscriptions ("[website.com] would like to use your Notifications" with the "Allow" and "Block" buttons), antivirus ("you have x viruses on your machine - subscribe to our service / install our software to protect your machine now!", and sweeps ("congratulations - you've won an iphone 11!")

These CPA offers can be obtained from affiliate networks. We can pop the offer page in the ad directly. Or we can pop a presell page (aka landing page) in the ad, and if the visitor clicks on a link on that page they'd be redirected to the offer page, where if they choose to sign up for the offer, we'll get paid a commission.

Pop is the cheapest form of traffic you can buy, which makes it a good traffic type to learn the basics of media buying - such as tracking, landing pages, testing, and campaign optimization.

Pop traffic is also the easiest to run, because there are fewer variables to test. No banners are involved, and there's minimal audience targeting. You either just send visitors to the offer page, or send them to a presell page first and then the offer page. Nice and simple.


2)The affiliate networks you've applied to above will try to contact you! Keep an eye on your email and chat messengers, and pick up on phone calls - basically monitor all the different methods of contact you've left on the application forms.

3)Some of the networks may want to have a chat with you before deciding on approving your account. Just be honest about your experience level - all the networks above are newbie-friendly.

Main things to remember are:

-Be professional,

-Make it clear that you'll do your best to succeed and that you're not just dabbling,

-Let them know you're a member of STM and following this tutorial, and that you can get help from this forum when you need to, and that 4)you'll abide by their terms of service.

The top concerns of affiliate network reps are:

-They want to know that their time spent with you will result in profits,

-They don't have to do a lot of hand-holding, and

-You won't do anything shady to get them into trouble (both with the affiliate network and with the advertisers a.k.a. the offer owners).

4)After you're accepted by an affiliate network, ask your affiliate manager ("AM" for short) for their skype/telegram/whatsapp whatever and add them - if they haven't added you first.

You can also log into your affiliate dashboard after getting approved - on some of the networks you'll find the contact info of your AM there as well.

5)Remember to set up your payment information with your AMs so you can get paid later. It would also be good to ask how often will payment be made, what the payment threshold is (i.e. what amount you need to reach in order to get paid in the next payment cycle), and whether you need to request

6)If your AMs ask you to set up your tracker postback, tell them you'll be doing that soon enough - we'll cover how to do that in the next couple of days.

Thanks for this guide! One question. I noticed that Haka is on http and not on Https, should this be a concern? Thanks

---

Interesting - never noticed this! Maybe they forgot to renew an SSL certificate?

The more important question is whether their affiliate links are still on https - are they?



Amy

Hi,

-Go to PopAds. Click on "SIGN-UP".

This page is not opening, is it critical in future work? May I use something same?

---

It works for me, try this url: https://www.popads.net/register.html

---

Hi, thanks for fast reply. Its strange, the site has this view even after registration. Also i tried via vpn - the same.

Try to clear your cache or use another browser, this is an incorrectly loaded/generate page.

Hi, based on reaching out to the Affiliate Managers at Mobipium, I was directed to use the website's Market section and to sort by Revenue. I reached out to the Affiliate Manager or Support for Haka and Zeydoo as well, but it seems that most of this detail is now directly in the site's UI. Is that correct based on the latest updates to each network, or should I still try to get this info directly from the Affiliate Managers or Support team?

---

Please do follow your AM's advice because that's more up-to-date than the tutorial.

Hello, thanks a lot, I connected my own AM on HAKA, but when I ask him how to set up payment method(I didn't find the place to set up), I would post the conversation between us:
he told me:To receive payment you are required to raise an invoice once you hit the threshold limit of 500 usd,
I wanted to make sure: The logic of setting up payment is that I need have some commission at first，so that I could add my own account of Paypal or Payoneer？
He replyed:Yes. You need to add all your payoneer or bank details in invoice while raising an invoice

It's really different from other networks, I don't know if there was something wrong? Or I misunderstood? Or it's the normal process of setting up payment method on HAKA?

---

HAKA is a direct advertiser and not a network.

Accounting always needs an invoice. In many cases the network is doing the invoice / credit note for you. However smaller organizations often do not have people for that.

So you need to write the invoice including your bank information (or payoneer if HAKA accepts that too). Once they receive your invoice they will prepare the money transfer.

That is all a manual process. There is no integration for payment on their website dashboard.

If that is too complicated, you could also run HAKA offers with networks. Zeydoo and Clickdealer have HAKA offers (and probably several other networks too). Just ask your AM for HAKA offers.

Thanks a lot，I‘m really a newbie，great thanks to you~~~

---

Oh my...
When I want to get offers approved on Zeydoo, they sent me this messageear publisher, due you are newbie in our network we couldn’t share you access for all our offers before we won’t see quality of your traffic. Please show your traffic quality with our own offers – surveys: ID 2025, 2061, 2755. Once you spend the test cap – 300$, we will check the quality and will share you access for other offers also. Thank you for understanding!

If it means I can't promote the offers they recommended to me？What should I do……？

---

It means you need to run one or more of these offers first: 2025, 2061, 2755. If they can see that your traffic quality is acceptable, they'll consider letting you run more offers.

Can you please paste screenshots of the offer descriptions here for those offers?
