Kicked off offer after 16 leads

Doesn't this seem a little fast?

I was running JustHookUp through TrafficHolder (very low qualtiy, I know) for only a few days.
but still, seems a little too quick to make that decision.

Or is there something I'm missing?

That advertiser is not very consistent in their chioces lmao
Tell them to put you back on the offer for another 50 leads to assess quallity.

Not anymore with them. That advertiser has a new AM and he's a real Nazi with quality. He refuses to let the testing really play out to see what backs out within 30 days. Bad biz in my opinion. But then again, I'm just a network manager fighting for affiliates.

seems like that advertiser has switched their focus around and not focuses on quality over quantity, I'm actually happy to see this change as quality publishers should probly get higher epc's now. That being said, being optimized off after 16 leads is probably a little fast, but chances are you sent more than 16 leads in reality and probably not a single one purchased a subscription. Also, starting out on an offer with a traffic source that you know is going to produce bad quality isn't a great idea for this offer anymore. Was is 16 leads in a matter of hours? or over the course of a few days or a week? Also, there are just certain days / times of the month that the advertiser will go over stats for a particular network or offer, so even if you had just started very recently, they probably aren't even looking at that, they're just seeing leads sent, no subscriptions, negative roi, and optimizing based on that. Don't take it too personally, just try to send more volume / better quality next time to have a better chance at it. Good luck!

there's plenty of other offers, maybe try untrue or something else. There's no shortage of alternative adult offers to run.

I know a bunch of bhers that used to use TH to water down traffic from certain sites for certain reasons. Not sure if that source is still used as that was a couple of years ago before certain big internet companies made some adjustments.
