Love Dem Angry Birds......$$$

While everyone was trying to figure out Admob and Jumptap the last few months I figure I take my campaigns to a few other places and find more traffic sources. So now that I milked this one traffic source for the last while for many profitable days I decided I'll out it. Secondly, I will warn you that you get better rates for larger spends. I'm just outting the source and some angles I used to pull off consistent 100-300+% roi days.

Source: Angry Birds Android app self serve http://www.rovio.com/en/advertise

What I ran? Ringtone offers targeting users with ads enticing them to download an angry birds ringtone or wallpapers. Email submits/co-reg offers.

Happy testing!

You made me lose. I spent like 3 hours on the last level and then an ad comes up right over my yellow bird when I was about to launch it.

Angry birds ringtones or wallpapers while playing Angry birds? Awesome! I'm sure we can think of ways to match cpa offers to popular apps!

This is what Google spits out when I search for platforms powered by Burstly:

http://www.burstly.com/s/ea/StorefrontWizard
http://www.burstly.com/s/backflip/StorefrontWizard
http://www.burstly.com/s/newtoy/StorefrontWizard

Maybe I should hit up Burstly and find out what else they've got going...

dudeman79x gave away a pretty good info so you should thank him instead of calling him a "motherfucker".

'Angry Birds' is a game. This is business. There is no room for emiotions in business. Quit the name calling and start banking.

ya they seem to offer advertising on many different apps. that opens up a lot of opportunities as you have way more knowlege about your audience when you target specific apps compared to running blind ron traffic

It was a joke dude lol


02-04-2012 03:23 PM #17 polarbacon (Moderator)

when I play the game on my tablet....they do some crazy huge ads (like rich media and actual commercials) seems like you could test a bunch of stuff because the ads take over the whole app


02-04-2012 03:24 PM #18 The Angry Russian (Moderator)

Hmmm no real targeting other than Country... or am I missing something?

Also, anyone figure out how to do Conversion tracking I see an Actions column in the reports?

Sweet share. Thanks!


02-04-2012 04:47 PM #20 shhhant (Senior Member)

What are the min bids for their platform? Don't have access to a real computer for a few days but just wondering


02-04-2012 04:58 PM #21 shoent (Member)

4.00 cpm suggested in usa


02-05-2012 01:54 AM #22 stackman (Administrator)

There are so many of these mobile advertising platforms, but this one owns inventory on some of the more well known apps out there. If the rules are lax lots of opprtunity!

@russian/shoent yeah i don't think there's a lot of targeting options available if any other than geo.

@doryphoros was definitely just kidding around..

App traffic works great on certain offers, especially when you know what app it will be showing up on. You have to be careful with regards to trademark infringement with your creatives, but lander's are whole different ball game, can get away with many things if your on your game

^ any examples outside of the obvious (gaming d/l) on angrybirds? I ran some dating on wordswithfriends but it was on sitescout


02-05-2012 06:58 AM #25 joejoechen (Member)

Guys.. In lieu of the advertising platform, i did a quick research and found this SUPERBLY awesome infographics that you can bank with the Angry bird platform..

It's all about demographics

^ very cool find. Lots of angles for this type of stuff, especially with the relaxed reviewers of mobile!


02-07-2012 08:30 AM #27 joejoechen (Member)

I tried to setup 2 campaigns in it, got denied.. And no they are not porns/boobs/babes/dating stuff.. Buggers, they don't even have FAQ/Rules section, guess we would have to keep on adding different types of campaigns (while pushing their limits) to find out ourselves...

Anyone has any inputs in this?

It's definitely a VERY GOOD traffic source with a lot less competitors (except within STM after this thread here, lol)..

Joe


02-07-2012 12:25 PM #28 zhanbo (AMC Alumnus)

joejoechen, I feel the suggested cpm is a little high, is your bids less than 4.00?


02-07-2012 01:14 PM #29 joejoechen (Member)

yes dude i uploaded 2 exact same campaigns but different bids, 1 at 2.00, another at 3.50.. i'm not targeting US country though... wanted to test that, but i got denied


02-07-2012 05:17 PM #30 disruptivetech (Member)

Related to this: http://www.burstly.com/ makes Self-serve advertising possible for a few other Apps with huge audiences :
Words with Friends - You can start with $50 (whereas Angry Birds requires $200 min). Choice of CPC and CPM (which starts at $1.50...not sure how much traffic that would bring though)
Paper Toss
Scrabble

Stack that paper boys. And keep the good info coming!!!


02-07-2012 06:17 PM #31 shhhant (Senior Member)

how long is the normal wait to get ads approved?


02-07-2012 07:33 PM #32 tellus (Member)

Thanks. The offers need to be mobile optimized on Rovio? How much testing before ROI > 0?


02-07-2012 08:53 PM #33 The Angry Russian (Moderator)

Hahahaha they don't like FB looking ads.

betweeen 0 and ∞ days....there is no answer to that..some people might get a postive roi right off the bat and some will never...depends on your skills/knowlege..like with every other traffic source...

@angry russian

damn :-) affiliates love them..traffic sources hate them


02-11-2012 10:27 PM #35 tellus (Member)

I tried to get info as to acceptable verticals, but no word from either Burstly or Rovio. Seems like Burstly is for app developers mainly. And ring tones are apparently soon out in the US at least.

Message from Burstly:

You may buy banners on CPM basis on Angry Birds Classic. As far as guidelines are concerned, we will be posting more information in detail in the near future. For the time being, I can provide the following guidelines on what is not permissible:

-Dating sites
-Giveaway type ads
-Re-branding of Angry Birds in the creative
-Anything promoting pornography, drugs, or alcohol


02-14-2012 06:01 PM #37 sm1810 (Member)

^ so wtf is left LOL... gaming? and other iphone apps?


02-14-2012 06:09 PM #38 shhhant (Senior Member)

ringtones, other apps, financial offers, normal lead gens, possibly pay per call, etc.

02-14-2012 06:25 PM #39 stackman (Administrator)

^^ Lots of creativity to be done with the ringtone offers. You don't just have to offer 'lil wayne ringtones' anymore, it's 2012 - the world is ending soon - put on your creative pants!


02-14-2012 06:59 PM #40 mrgodlike (Member)

build your own lead gen funnels = $$$$$


02-14-2012 07:45 PM #41 joejoechen (Member)

they have pretty high CPM..


02-14-2012 10:03 PM #42 dude (Member)

Anyone has a contact for an account rep or sth?

I've been trying to get a hold of someone there...

Cheers!

Has anyone got an offer accepted? What vertical?


02-16-2012 08:48 PM #45 andymin (Member)

nope, tried everything - did get a reply from support though...

'Publishers in competition have a right to refuse an ad'


02-18-2012 07:54 PM #46 tellus (Member)

I'm checking the availability of a refund for the $200. It seems that they're mostly running in-house inventory and don't want competition. And the impression of Burstly is an app dev service, not an ad agency.


02-23-2012 06:38 AM #47 tellus (Member)

Message from Burstly:
"Ads for non-competing apps that lead to the App Store or Android Market are favored the most highly.
However, the most important thing to note is that Zynga would like to ensure that ads that request personal information from users do not run."

Thanks for posting a traffic source that's impossible to work with

That only cost me $200, what's the big deal, right?


02-23-2012 07:10 AM #48 shhhant (Senior Member)

They don't refund?

same here..added $200 3 days ago and the funds are still not added to my account..tried to mail the support but didn't get a reply :-(

so if anyone has a contact over there send me a pm please. thanks in advance!


04-04-2012 01:54 PM #50 andymin (Member)

I gave up, couldn't get anything approved, they do issue refunds eventually if you keep submitting support requests


04-04-2012 02:12 PM #51 joejoechen (Member)

they suck.


04-04-2012 02:38 PM #52 luukmuu (Member)
