I decided to give some testing with 7search and direct linking to peerfly email/zip submit offers, and I'm having a few problems. Hoping someone can share some light, before I spend any more cash.

Honestly, it's looking like click fraud to me, but there's people claims 7search is great. So how do you explain this.

Keyword #1: 7 clicks at once from one IP address in a row
Keyword #1: 3 clicks in a row from one IP address right after the 7.
Total 10 clicks at .05 cents a click for 50 cents (according to Peerfly)
7search reported over 15 clicks in the time period charging me .75 cents, 5 missing clicks.

Keyword #1: 3 Clicks/one IP
Keyword #1: 2 Clicks/one IP
Keyword #1: 9 Clicks/one IP
Keyword #1: 2 Clicks/one IP
Keyword #1: 5 Clicks/one IP

In total my campaign 50 clicks on 7search and peerfly reported 25 0 conversions. I run another campaign somewhere else and peerfly never misses a click. Also another thing I noticed, 7search reported that I paid 2.67cents for clicks on the campaign page but charged me 3.43 on the dashboard?

So any tips on improving the quality of the clicks on 7search? I have some more money that I will be testing with it, but I figured I would read what other people do before I throw away more cash.

Hello Midir,

7search will filter out the clicks from same ips and will only charge you for the first click from that ip.

There is some delay in the reports from real time track, dashboard and the campaign on 7search and also at your CPA network.

PeerFly will filter or redirect the clicks that are coming from other countries than what the offer targeting and there also could be a delay in the report from PeerFly.

Sometimes clicks show up in my account from campaigns I was running for weeks and months ago.

If you have any concerns, you can always discuss the traffic quality with 7search support team or with your AM from PeerFly.

Hope that helps.

As Mahmoud said 7 search's tracking is little bit slow by its bang on. 7 search will filter out bad traffic. Also you should start tracking the traffic sources and block the bad traffic, this way you run extra safe campaigns and see profit quickly.

Also, make sure you are checking your raw clicks on PeerFly (by default your Reports page shows unique, but you can click the green + next to the offer name to show a complete breakdown).

Do raw clicks in peerfly reflect filtered out clicks in prosper? Should we be blocking these in 7search by using both ###AFFID###-###RID###

or do we just block with ###AFFID###

I can't seem to get my head around how blocking bad traffic works, I mean I have massive amounts of filtered clicks with a referrer in one campaign yet in another it's making conversions.

So if we block just ###AFFID### or the domain in 7search at the campaign level do we lose potential traffic which may convert.

Am I right in saying that blocking both AFFID & RID would be blocking individual IP's or am I missing something? If this is the case then blocking at this level would be an endless game of cat and mouse.

Cheers.

It seems you are tracking well on this but closely monitor your referrer urls and cut off sources bringing a lot of clicks but no conversions. Track and watch everything like a hawk and you will be profitable. Just keep testing different offers and optimizing.

In prosper202, no clicks will be filtered out.
Take look at this thread on how to block the bad sources in 7search
How to block bad traffic sources on 7search and when

Mopsta

Hi, thanks.

I understand that prosper202 doesn't block sources but what I'm trying to say is this -



Do we block the sources of these clicks in 7search using the format AFFID-RID (xxxxx-xxxxx) or do we just use AFFID (xxxxx)

My understanding is that AFFID is the referring domain so blocking this is essentially the same as blocking the whole domain under the 'block domain' tool in 7search. So when a referring domain produces a decent amount of clicks (50+) with no conversions do we block the whole domain?

Apologies if this makes no sense.

Cheers
