totally first beginner's journey

hi there,

as titled, this is my first journey of newbie in the world of IM specially with affiliation !

who ?
me, a 36yo man, skilled in web automation tasks, scraping, ruby, rails, html, css, seo, vseo, ...

why ?
because I am tired to take subway every day, waking up at 7h o'clock, and I believe that I can make my own job online !

how ?
using paid traffic (PPV) to drive people to affiliation offers (CTA), while keeping my actual job until making enough profits with IM


____________________________________________________________
first step : signup onto affiliates programs,
- done => affiliaXe, 42leads (waiting for responses for the two)
- planned => maxbounty and two others
inspirationnal source : Resources | Affiliate Marketing Forum | AffiliateFix


next steps :
- choosing between pin submit and lead gen
- select offers and search which one drive main traffic
- search for PPV source and submit

____________________________________________________________
edit 1 : I have also submit at G4Offers that just reply with accepted affiliation account, lets go browse their offers

 

little update :

first step : signup onto affiliates programs

accepted => G4offers (quick)
rejected => affiliaXe (because I miss their phone call + not experimented)
awaiting response => 42leads

planned => f5media, mundomedia, peerfly, maxbounty, zeropark, cpatrend, taplinks (more informations needed about them)

I also crawl offers from agregators to find which network offers pin submit program

 

Hi there,

not really an update, nothing done since last time, lot of work in my main job (I am working in webanalytics & tag management)

and I am going to leave Paris for a week, I am bestman in a wedding in Boston

still looking for mobile offer with pin submit method ideally..

I am asking myself how to evaluate if an offer is promising :
- country (population estimation)
- offer (game vs download vs survey)
- payout CPA

I guess that contacting AM is the best way to know that, but I also read that AM will privilege top affiliate
any ideas ?

see you in one week

 

Hello,

some news here !

I found some interesting offers on G4Offers like mobile subscription
and I register on airpush and inmobi, 50$ on each test

stay tuned, campaign begin soon !

 

Hello all,

As I live in Paris, I was not in good mood since two week for IM .. but I'm back ! more motivated !

so :

I have two affiliate network that accept me : g4offers and adscend
I have 4 media buy network account : inmobi, phunware, airpush and popads

that is enough to begin !


- the offer I want to promote is a mobile game via pinsubmit
- I'm actually trying to adjust bid on inmobi to have impressions for the campaign I create, target to portugal 3G only

advice welcome to determine the minimum bid to get impression !

keep in touch

 

Hi,

this wasn't a silly question, because for the moment I just use some screenshot found on google image.
I plan to split test using simple screenshot versus screenshot with CTA (like "play free"), and I didn't think to use portuguese wording in the CTA, so this was a good question !

Is this the best approach ? Just using a picture redirecting to the offers landing ? This method is the costless method (just taking picture and use a little gimp to add CTA)..

I am also still searching the lowest bid giving me some traffic. Have someone ideas about it ? The recommended bid in inmobi is 0.021 but I go to 0.15 without result. The CPA offers is 5.58 $.

Thanks for your support !

 

As it is screenshots from the game I promote, do you think it is risky ? There is not mentions about not to use screenshots..
maybe I have to install the game to use personal captures ..

You are right, I have begin to make picture with portuguese wording

I am still looking for the max bid to get impression .. increasing from 0.021 (recommended bid) to 0.5 now .. I will wait 2 hours to see if I get impression. I have also search in the forum onto "maximum bid" and stuff like that but didn't find thread about best bid calculation (I asked to the AM the CR to be able to calculate the max bid I can do)

 

Hi there,

not mention in the offers about not using game screenshot

so yesterday I split test my capture, 3 different colors of CTA and one picture without CTA
I made this on two traffic sources, with for each source 4 different tracking links

still waiting to find the point to get impression

I also read many thread in ppc directory of the forum
