Newbie Question

Darren Kilgariff · 08-26-2011, 04:16 AM

Hi fellow warriors,
I recently got accepted to Max Bounty after a telephone interview.I decided what offer to promote and have created a landing page on one of my websites.I tried initially making the page on a free wordpress site but promoting CPA products isn't allowed (different to what was said on WSO I just purchased.Any way I have been putting affiliate tracking code on product but have noticed that it takes me to a page completely different than the offer promoting.I have tried doing same with several offers same product but keeps taking me to same survey page.I am definitely copying code correctly.Any ideas?
Kind Regards
Darren

Most likely your offer is only good in the United States. Try using a proxy like HideMyA--, select a USA proxy and then view your site.

Thanks for the advice seems odd that offers from USA can only be promoted there.Surely moneys money if i'm targeting traffic?

Check this if the offer is from the country which is other than your country it will take you to the some other offers! For E.g if you are living in Pak And the offers Country allowed is U.S you will be redirected to the offer which is available in your country! but if someone in U.S will open this link he will get the same offer! hope this will help you!

As others have stated what you're seeing is based on your ip so visitors from america will see your offer, you can test this by using proxies.

Certain advertisers will only want traffic from the US as their product/service or backend offer isn't available internationally. Therefore viewers from other countries are of no value and instead of paying out for these visitors they simply don't allow them to even see the offer.

If you are concerned about wasting traffic then some networks will enable you to redirect international visitors to a similar offer they are eligible for. Ask your AM if this function is available.

Good luck.

Are you using self hosted wordpress? or are you using some free webhosting service?

Are you in the same country that the offer is for?
