Lead stealing sites?

bnsuccessful · 12-26-2011, 11:28 AM

hey im new to cpa. Anyway, i been promoting a cpa offer through maxbounty for a while and this is my concern is that every time i check my report sheet, there are other offers on there that i didn't sign up for that are getting more clicks than my offer. Are these sites stealing my leads and if so, is there a way to prevent them??

That can happen when you are sending traffic to an offer that is not in the specific country/state/city that the offer wants. So if an offer only accepts leads from 30 states in US then the other states will be sent to an offerwall or other offers. Same goes with countries. Thats probably what is happening. But why not ask your AM?

In maxbounty you can search for international offers which will display the same add to anyone ip from anywhere in the world. These are limited to only a few though!

I think that you are likely seeing clicks resulting from our international redirect offers. If you are advertising a campaign which accepts only traffic from certain countries but some foreign traffic is trying to access the campaign landing page, we redirect the foreign clicks to a campaign allowing traffic from that country. This way you still have a chance to monetize that filtered out traffic.

Definitely speak with your AM or send me a PM and I can take a look at your account and provide more info.

How are you promoting your offers? I'm going to agree with the majority of posters above and say its likely due to geotargetting (visitors from outside the target country of the offer are being sent to other offers)
