Need suggestion to start CPA journey with adult dating offers with max of 2K budget (11)

---

Hi guys
Hope you all are doing well. I need some valuable suggestion or guidance to start CPA journey with adult dating offers with max of 2K budget. Please suggest me which affiliate network, media provider with traffic type, GEO, tracker or other tools or platform will be best for me to start my CPA journey in adult dating vertical.
please suggest me free or paid both in the budget of 2k. I'm not expecting 6 figure income with this budget but at least I'm expecting a stable income source. Please suggest me guide me like your younger brother which approach will be best for me.

Hello, $2k is on the lower side of things, but who knows, maybe you will be able to pull it of

For offers, check these networks: advidi, rebll, clickdealer, gotzha... all of them are good and considered solid in general. Obviously, I cannot make any guarantees, so do your own research as well.

For traffic, banner traffic seems to work the best, the biggest networks are: trafficfactory, exoclick, trafficstars, trafficjunky... I would start with these.

Focus on SOI or DOI offers, SOIs are easier to convert, DOIs are usually better in terms of lead quality.

Tracker: any of the popular trackers will do the job: Voluum and Binom are the most used ones.

It would be a good idea to get some spytool and grab some banners and LPs to start with, do not even try to run witout LPs. Adplexity adult is the spytool Im using.

GEOs: stay away from US, that's the most competitve one. If you really HAVE to pick an EN speaking country, try Canada. Asia or Eastern/Central EU countries can work. As a general rule, focus on Tier2 or Tier3 GEOs when starting out, the competition is lower in those and the traffic is cheaper.

I think I covered most or all of your questions, if you have more, don't hesitate to ask!

Good luck on your journey.

Hi.. Thanks for your valuable suggestion. After posting this post meanwhile I was researching about the tools and platform myself and have chosen some tools and have already setup my 1st campaign but haven't published my campaign yet. On the basis of your suggestion it's seem for some tool I'm on same tool as per your suggestion but some are not. I'm listing out selected tools or platform by using which I have setup my campaign but have not published yet on the basis of your confirmation I will publish my campaign.


Affiliate network: mylead.global
Ad format: native ads
traffic source: trafficstar
Offer: Adult Dating Smartlink (which conversion type is Single Opt-In , Double Opt-In , Email Submit)
Tracker: Bemob
spytool: adperiscope.com
Geo: targeting tier 2 and tier 3

- using spy tool I have downloaded some banner and I'm using same in my campaign but haven't configured LP.
- with smart link offer also we should use Landing page ?

please tell me if I have chosen any fake tool or platform ?
Please tell me on the basis of above configuration as beginner I can lunch my campaign or not ?
if any changes are required to do then please tell me.

Hello again,

I have no direct experience with them, but from what I can tell, they are a stable player as well so it should be safe to go with them. But definitely signup for more than one network.

I'm doing better with banners, but many people do good numbers with native ads and trafficstars is a solid network.

Smartlinks have their place in the business, but it's hard to make profits with these by buying the standard clicks from large networks. Smartlinks are fine when you are able to buy mixed traffic in large volumes for a cheap price, but when working with networks that provide detailed targeting, it's better to promote solo offers instead of smartlinks.

Bemob is ok.

Never used this tool, but adult is a very transparent vertical, you don't even need a spytool from the very first day. Just get a VPN and browse the most popular adult websites to see what people are promoting. And once you need more creatives and more LPs, get a spytool to speed things up.

Good decision!

It depends on the smartlink, some already have LPs built in, some don't. But anyways, I would still focus on promoting specific offers instead of smartlinks.

You can try it, just to see what it feels like to get some traffic running. But again, consider my advice of running specific offers

Hi..
Thanks for the detailed explanation for each point.
Please help me with following points:

- I'm not able to understand the actual meaning of mixed traffic, little bit explanation will be useful for me to understand it better.

- Please give me some referral link or please help me to create account on different Affiliate network so that I can get solo adult dating offer. ( I have tried with some network like crackrevenue, maxbounty and got rejected and some network ask so many question during account creation so left in between because I'm not able to answer those question.)

- For smart link adult dating offer, please suggest me some ads type so that I can give a try with it as you are saying smartlink required mixed traffic.

- Are the pop traffic of trafficstar will be good for smartlink adult dating offer?

Think about traffic bought in bulk... so all devices, all GEOs, all quality levels... basically buying the full rotation without much (or any) targeting. This is something I would not recommend to new affiliates.

A smartlink will segment such traffic mix and send it to offers that have the highest chance of converting it. It's a great option for people who run their own sites, for example. Since these always get traffic from multiple countries and it's hard to build specific campaigns for every segment of it... that's when smartlinks come into play.

You can try our network application tool to get into some networks: https://stmforum.com/central-vendor-app/

Some networks do have more strict onboarding process, but that's quite normal, they just need to make sure to accept people who are serious about the business. @CrakRevenue have a rep here on the forum, try to send them a PM, quite a few networks are more likely to accept STM members. And there are many more networks who visit he forum, check this directory to find some of them: https://stmforum.com/affiliate-directory/

It always helps to simply answer the questions in their application in the best way you can, see an example in this old thread: https://stmforum.com/forum/showthrea...l=1#post272984

We have discussed this many times already on the forum. Just try to think like the network, what would you like to hear from someone that wants to join your network? Try to sound as professional as possible and that's about it.

Your goal is to buy the traffic as cheap as possible for the smartlink, so the native ads with trafficstars are probably a decent option, try to make very catchy images that will have high CTRs.

POP traffic can work with dating, the quality is up and down though, so prepare to face some issues and loose a few offers.

But again, I would focus on specific offers and promote those with banner traffic, that has a higher chance of success than trying to make a smartlink work.

Let me share with you some advice.

My favorite adnetworks: Trafficjunky, Exoclick, Trafficfactory.
Adnetworks with good reviews and good traffic opportunitites:

Networks: I have good experience with Advidi, Adsempire, Rebll and Clickdealer.
Also I heard good reviews about A4D and Lospollos.

Tracking: I like Voluum and Adsbridge.
They both provide auto-optimizing of all campaigns and on all traffic sources and it’s possible to monitor approximately 25 metrics in real-time. Both with great UX.

The budget is not so big for all these testings, so be sure, you choose the trusted traffic sources.
Also, don’t forget about quality creatives.

Good luck!
