    Are short link domains affecting ad approvals in 2026?

    Hey, yeah I've been noticing this too. Had a couple campaigns rejected last month and the feedback mentioned my landing pages were using bit.ly links. Switched them over to proper branded URLs and got approved pretty quick after that. I think the platforms are just being stricter about tracking...

    Does link domain actually affect approval rates?

    Honestly, I've noticed it does matter, at least in my experience. I started using my main domain for everything and saw better approval rates compared to when I was testing with random subdomains. I think it's because the system recognizes established domains as more trustworthy. That said...

    CTA in email marketing campaign !

    I think it depends on what you're trying to achieve with the welcome sequence. Personally, I wouldn't make the first email too sales-focused. I'd use it to introduce yourself, set expectations, and build a little trust. Then, in the second or third email, I'd include a clear CTA once subscribers...

    Playable Ads - RichAds. What are you waiting for?

    I’ve actually been seeing more people talk about playable ads lately, and I can understand why they’re getting attention. Letting users try part of an app or game before installing seems like a smart way to attract people who are genuinely interested instead of random clicks. I haven’t used...

    Why Mailchimp Didn’t Work for My 100k+ Affiliate List (and What We’re Building Instead)

    I actually ran into a similar issue after my email list started growing. Mailchimp was fine at first, but once the list got bigger, the costs increased and some features felt limiting for affiliate campaigns. I also found it harder to organize subscribers the way I wanted. I ended up trying a...

    What Infrastructure Are You Using For Gambling Email Traffic in 2026?

    I've noticed something similar. Email can perform surprisingly well when the list is clean and people have actually opted in. The hard part isn't getting opens or clicks, it's keeping everything running without deliverability becoming a constant headache. I know a few people who eventually...

    How to scrap emails?

    It depends on why you're trying to scrape emails. If it's for marketing, I'd be careful because many websites prohibit it, and sending unsolicited emails can get you into legal or deliverability issues. If you're collecting contacts from your own customers or people who have given permission...

    B2B database

    I've looked for free B2B and B2C databases before, and honestly, most of the ones I found were either outdated or limited. If you need more than 100 contacts, you could try checking company websites, LinkedIn, business directories, or public government databases, depending on your target...

    Email Marketing That Actually Converts (My Current Focus)

    I’ve noticed something pretty similar. I used to spend too much time trying to optimize every little thing, but my results improved once I focused on sending emails people actually wanted to read. Short, useful messages with a clear purpose have worked better than long, sales-heavy sequences...

    Got blacklisted after one campaign years ago, never went back to email. Anyone else?

    I think this happens more often than people admit. A single bad experience can leave a lasting impression, especially if you don't understand what went wrong. I've seen people write off an entire marketing channel because of one mistake, even when the issue was something that could have been...

    Do local domain rules affect affiliate projects?

    I think they can, depending on what you're promoting and where your audience is. I've noticed that using a local domain sometimes helps people trust a site more, especially if they're searching for products or services in their own country. That said, I don't think the domain alone makes a huge...

    Do You Clear Old DNS Records When Buying a Used Domain?

    When I buy a used domain, I usually check its DNS records first and remove anything I don't need. Old records can point to services that no longer exist or create confusion later. I prefer starting with a clean setup and then adding only the records required for my hosting, email, and other...

    What is ROIC?

    ROIC stands for Return on Invested Capital. It’s a metric that shows how efficiently a company uses the money invested in its business to generate profits. When I first started looking at stocks, I mostly focused on revenue and earnings, but ROIC gave me a better picture of business quality. A...

    CRM as an affiliate? How do you manage relationships with your partners?

    As an affiliate, I think treating partners like long-term contacts instead of one-time opportunities makes a big difference. I keep simple notes about who I've worked with, what offers performed well, and when we last spoke. I also check in occasionally, even when I'm not promoting anything...

    What is your affiliate $ goal 2023?

    My goal is to build a steady affiliate income instead of chasing quick wins. I'm aiming for around $3,000 to $5,000 a month by focusing on a few traffic sources and promoting products that actually fit my audience. This year taught me that consistency matters more than constantly switching...

    8 common mistakes when starting a business

    When I first started learning about business, I thought having a good idea was enough. Looking back, I made some of the same mistakes people warn about, especially trying to do everything at once and not paying enough attention to my target customers. I also underestimated how important...

    Anyone tried making a micro-niche site for something like card balance guides?

    I actually experimented with a small niche site around prepaid and gift card balance checks a while back. It didn't take off overnight, but I noticed that very specific search terms were much easier to rank for than broad finance topics. The biggest challenge was keeping the information updated...

    Seeking Help Where are the actual media buyers hanging out in 2026?

    I've been in media buying for a few years now and honestly, it's gotten pretty fragmented. Most of the real buyers I know aren't on the big public forums anymore. You'll find a lot of us in private Slack groups and Discord servers tied to specific niches or tools—stuff like Meta or Google ad...

    What nobody tells you about MVAS traffic quality in SE Asia — lessons from 8 months in

    Honestly, this hits home. I've been running MVAS campaigns in Indonesia and Vietnam for about eight months now, and yeah—the traffic quality talk is way too polished everywhere. The big one nobody mentions? Click-to-bill conversion looks amazing on dashboards, but retention is brutal. Like...

    Which iGaming brands do affiliates actually know? Survey + I'll share full results

    Honestly, most affiliates I talk to only really know the big names that actually convert and pay on time. Bet365, Stake, DraftKings, FanDuel—those come up constantly. But beyond that? It gets messy. Lots of affiliates mention smaller brands like Rabona, 22Bet, or Bitcasino, but usually with a...
