One of the frequently asked questions: “why isn’t there traffic?”
You have set the recommended bid, but there are still no clicks.
In this article you will learn about what Win rate is and how an auction works in an advertising network.
WinRate.
Many advertisers are participating in an ad auction, and each of them bids per ad impression.
How do you know if your rate is relevant? This can be done through the Win rate parameter, which can be found on the main page of your personal account.
In the Win Rate% column, you can see what percentage of impressions can be redeemed after the campaign is launched.
If your Win Rate is:
- From 0 to 10, your rate is not relevant. You will be winning very few impressions, and this is the reason why there is no traffic or clicks.
- From 10 to 30 is a suitable starting point to cut off unnecessary ones and create a blacklist.
- Between 30 and 50 is very good, you win a lot of impressions. Keep working.
- From 50 to 100, a result worth striving for. However, it is impossible to win 100% of the traffic, as it is distributed among several advertisers.
An auction on an advertising network is not very different from a regular one.
Bidding takes place, the advertiser with the highest bid wins.
He gets the most traffic and clicks.
The less trades you win, the lower your Win rate and the number of clicks are.
Recommended bids are a very rough figure, if I may say “averages are misleading”.
A lot depends on Geo, targeting settings, selected feeds and blacklists in the campaign, and schedule of impressions. In general, each selected parameter in the campaign affects the result.
Focus on the specific Win rate for your campaign.
Conclusion:
By analyzing the Win Rate, you will know if your rate is relevant. Do you need to boost it to win more impressions and thereby drive more traffic to your campaign?
Tracking Win rate is one of the important steps of analytics and optimization of a successful Push campaign.
Thanks for reading till the end.
We wish you profitable campaigns.

How to increase the CTR of ads in push notifications by 2 times?
For example, using the macros {city}.
This macro substitutes the current city in the ad where the user is located.
This maneuver works great with the dating vertical and increases user engagement.
Vimmy's interface allows you to customize geolocation macros simply by adding the {city} or {city_en} macro to the header or message.
The system will pull up the name of the city where the user is located in the push text.
In the article are more ideas on how to increase your CTR.
Friends, attention! This is very important information!
Affiliate marketers remember 2018 and the performance of push traffic, when any verticals rose to the top and the profit was measured in five-digit numbers.
It's been 3 years now and this market has changed a lot. Android traffic performance has noticeably decreased.
Okay, so nothing to discuss? No, this is not the time to give up, because the industry does not stand still!
What if I told you that there is a real “blue ocean”?
Now you can send push notifications to iPhone users.
In other words, now you have access to over 1 billion iOS users worldwide!
Become one of the first to test and start making money with the new format.
PROMO CODE: for a $ 50 bonus with a $ 300 deposit “CALENDAR300”, valid until the end of March 2021.
In this article you will find everything you need to know to get started quickly with the new format.
Great news - the API is now available in Vimmy.
You will be able to:
- Automatically create and optimize separate campaigns for each ad format.
- Manage campaigns using scripts.
- Change your bid or budget.
- Launch, stop campaigns and add zones to blacklists.
- Receive and analyze statistics.
The documentation is available by clicking this link.
More detailed information about the API and how to use it in Affiliate Marketing can be found in our new article.
The new optimization algorithm makes it faster and easier for you to optimize your ad campaigns. You no longer need to monitor the process every second!
Using Smart Optimisation Tools, you allow the program to stop platforms/sites and creatives for you according to the specified parameters.
How it works.
- Smart Optimisation Tools can stop creatives if its CTR is below the specified threshold.
- Automatically add placements to the blacklist according to the specified CPA goal conditions.
- Pause creatives in which the CPA goal is higher than the value you specified.
You can configure the Smart Optimisation Tools parameters when creating or editing your campaign.
Smart Optimisation Tools works with all ad formats: Push notification, Popunder, In-page Push and the new Calendar Push format, which makes it possible to send Push notifications to Iphone.
Tools options.
Smart Optimisation Tools works in three variants, each of which suits different tasks, choose the most suitable one for your current campaign, or use all three metrics together.
Placement Desired CPA.
The campaign has Desired Price = $ 1, Minimal Conversions = 3. Until the placement has received 3 conversions or until it has spent $ 3 on traffic (3 * $ 1), the Smart Optimisation Tools does not take action.
As soon as you got 3 conversions or spent #3 On the placement, the eCPA is calculated and if this value is less than the value specified in the Desired CPA field, placement_id is added to the blacklist.
This optimisation is useful when launching RON campaigns to quickly optimize sources. Recommended for simple conversion flows - SOI, DOI, app install.
Creative Minimal CTR.
Stops a creative if its CTR is below the specified threshold. The work uses 2 conditions:
- The minimum number of clicks on a creative, at which Smart Optimisation Tools decides to stop the creative. For example, 100 clicks. This value is configured by the advertiser in the “Minimal clicks” field.
- The minimum CTR is set, below which the creative is considered “ineffective”. Also set by the advertiser in the “Minimal CTR” field.
Creative Desired CPA.
Creative has Desired Price = $ 1, Minimal Conversions = 100.
Until the creative has received 100 conversions or has spent $ 100 on traffic (100 * $ 1), the Smart Optimisation Tools does not take action.
As soon as you have received 100 conversions or spent $ 100 on a creative, the eCPA is calculated and if its value is less than the value specified in the Desired CPA field, the creative gets the Paused status.
Conclusion:
Smart Optimization Tools - an indispensable assistant in automating the optimization process of your campaigns.
We recommend that you thoroughly analyze this tool and use it to your advantage.
IMPORTANT: For Smart Optimization Tools to work correctly, you need to configure the transfer of conversions from your tracker to Vimmy.
Postback Url is available in the "Tracking" section of your personal account. If you need help setting up Tracking, please contact live-chat.

Dear friends!
In this article, we want to tell you about the advantages and advanced possibilities of using S2S postback in your work with Vimmy.
S2S
Installing and configuring the S2S conversion transmission allows you to transfer conversions from your tracker to Vimmy statistics.This will help in analyzing the traffic provided, thereby making it more profitable and suitable for you, as well as using Smart Optimization Tools for automatic optimization.
To transfer conversions, you need to install and configure the postback URL, your link is available in the Tracking section of your personal account.
Why is it important?
Vimmy does its best to provide you with only the highest quality traffic.
The only question is which traffic is of the highest quality for you!
What works for some clients and verticals may not work for others.
Analytics based on offers and data about your conversion will allow us to provide more appropriate traffic sources for your campaigns.
Benefits!
Automation – receiving conversion data, we will be able to customize the base of automatic rules based on the cost of conversion or their number.
Increasing your ROI – Knowing your maximum cost per conversion data we will be able to leave only those traffic sources that match the rules / parameters that you have set.
Global BL sources – Based on the information received, we will be able to reduce or even limit those traffic sources that do not work for most of our customers, before they harm your campaign / conversion.
Refunds – The S2S postback gives us the ability to see if a particular source is different from others or changes throughout the day. With this information, we can make the refund process even easier and faster.
More accurate analytics – Analyzing conversion data from most of our users will allow us to offer you the most accurate presets possible, which will save you time and money when working with less suitable equivalents.
Additional sources – To express our gratitude for the cooperation, exclusively for users who have installed S2S postbacks, we have created a separate white list with the most effective traffic sources.
Installation instructions:
In most trackers, you can already select Vimmy from the list of ad networks and all tokens and settings will be added automatically.
Let’s look at manual postback integration with Binom or Voluum trackers.
In your personal account, we have already prepared a customized postback for the most popular trackers Binom, Voluum, BeMob, PeerClick. The link will look like this https://vmmpb.com/ic?id={externalid}&payout={payout}
You need to copy this link into the Posback URL field in the traffic settings of the resource in the tracker and make sure that you pass the {click_id} token to the tracker. Job well done. If you still need help in setting up, we will always help you through our live chat.

Friends, great news!
Multicreatives are now also available in Calendar Push format.
Recommended verticals for calendars: VPN apps, Dating, Crypto, Software.
You can read more about this format here.
Multicreatives are also available for our other formats: Push Notifications, In-page Push.
With the Smart Optimisation Tools, you can automatically stop creatives with the lowest CTR.
Have a nice day and successful launches!
Previously, push traffic was limited to Android users only, since the iOS operating system technically does not allow sending notifications through the browser. This limited advertisers’ access to such a paying audience.
Everything is changing and now we are glad to introduce you to a new promising Сalendar push format, which allows you to send Push notifications to iPhone users around the world, through the Calendar application, which gives notifications exceptional trust and a great conversion.
Profit pays off the costs of advertising campaigns quickly and repeatedly, all due to little competition and fresh iPhone users, and this is more than 1 billion users around the world who have not received push notifications before. That is why the format is perfect for both a beginner and an experienced affiliate marketer.
In this guide, you will find detailed information about the new format, everything about setting up and launching a successful campaign, as well as a couple of insights and tips.
iOS Calendar Push traffic.
Calendar Push notifications appear in the Calendar app, which is a scheduled event on every iOS and macOS device. As the “event” approaches, the user will receive reminder notifications.
As a classic of the genre, the format uses a subscription-based model, that is, permission is requested to send notifications and receive notifications from the Calendar application.
A significant difference from classic push notifications is the absence of an image and an icon. iOS Calendar Push notification consists only of title, link and description. Notifications are displayed immediately, even on a locked smartphone screen, a great advantage, right?
After the user opens the calendar application with the proposed event, they see your notification, namely the title, text and link.
By clicking on the link, the user goes to the landing page.
Nativeness of the notification is one of the advantages of the format, nowadays the user receives at least 46 notifications per day, which is why he is susceptible to the effect of banner blindness and no longer notices incoming push notifications. Reminders of events coming from your own calendar do not cause such annoyance and are perceived as something useful and necessary.
The format shows a good conversion in almost all verticals and Geo, so there are no questions about what and where to invest in.
From the verticals we would note:
- Applications from the Appstore. VPN, antivirus, games.
- Finance.
- Dating.
- Crypto.
- Gambling.
USA, Japan, Russia, Germany, India and France. The exact traffic volumes and prices can be found in the Traffic chart section.
Worldwide usage statistics for iOs and Android phones in June 2020 also give us a good idea of the whereabouts of our potential customers. Source: Statista and Stat Counter.
Setting up an iOS calendar Push campaign
Launching a campaign for iOS Calendar Push as simple as possible! Log in to your account, in the "Campaigns" section, select "Create campaign" and then the Calendar Push format.
Then everything is as usual: title, description, URL, targeting selection and campaign launch.
Calendar Push consists of three elements:
- Title. Up to 150 characters
- Description. Up to 250 characters
- URL to the offer or landing page.
Then set up targeting: country, OS version, connection type (3G / Wi-Fi), black / white lists, site and placement, ip-ranges.
For more personalization of the push, you can use the {city} and {city en} macros in your ads. These macros reveal the city the user is in. Relevant for dating, sweeps[a], gambling and crypt. You can read more about the {city} macros here.
Insights from Vimmy
- For calendars, we recommend at least $ 300 to start.
- The auction is BALANCE-DEPENDENT. You must maintain a positive account balance. We recommend x2 of your daily budget.
- Since the notification is displayed as an upcoming event, users can click on it anytime before, during, or even after the event. This means that sometimes you may receive clicks up to three days after the initial notification was sent.
- iOS users have above average income + ease of shopping in the Apple ecosystem! These factors are good for conversions.
- There is no need to create images. Text + emoji is the choice of professionals. You can still use call-to-action words like "Just for today", "Now", "Fast", "Limited offer", etc. to get more attention for your ads and increase the CTR. Also, adapt the headlines for current events or make notifications look like personal alerts.
Conclusion
When new opportunities emerge on the market, the key is to act as soon as possible. It's like buying Bitcoin - it's a pity that I didn't buy it 5 years ago, I would now be a millionaire.
iOS Calendar Push is a new ad format that hasn't gotten boring yet. Low competition and high CTR. Great opportunity isn't it? Yes, and you need to use it right now!
If you are ready to earn even more together with the top format of 2021 - the link to launch the campaign is HERE.
A nice bonus for you is a promo code from Vimmy, we will add $ 50 when you deposit $ 300 using the promo code “CALENDAR300”.
Thanks for reading and high ROI to you.
