Getting my feet wet with paid traffic

I wrote a long post about my strategy, but it triggered the spam filter no matter how I altered it.

Anyways, I'm starting with paid traffic. Doing SEO now. This is my journey.
 
Maybe I can dodge the spam filter this time? I joined here a few days ago, and finally had some time to check the place out. A lot of good content shared here -- looking forward to spend some time reading and learning.

Who am I?
26 year old guy living in Spain.

What do I do now?
Seo with CPA/Affiliate and client SEO.

What do I have now:
- Adsbridge (might Change to Voluum)
- A digital Ocean Droplet to store landing pages. Running Nginx and Ubuntu, just to serve static content.
- Amazon Route 53 for DNS
- Budget as low as possible, 10-20€ per day in ad spend for testing

My plan and strategy?
I want to start with Facebook and Bing Ads at first, mainly because these are cheaper than Adwords, less competition (I think, for my markets), and it's traffic where people have shown interest in the ad and product (more so than pop ads).

I want to try both direct linking and landing pages, depending on the offer, and to split test and see what difference it makes.

I need to learn:
- Setting up tracking properly
- Managing and cutting campaigns
- Split testing and statistical significance
- Scaling
- Landing pages and optimization
- Offer rotation and geo-targeting (i.e. CA visitors entering a US offer)

Goals:
- Start with Facebook and Bing, then expand into other sources i.e. Adwords
- Make at least 2/3s of my income from paid traffic by the end of the year
