Plenty Of Fish Question

by lazymoe
16 replies
I was running a campaign on POF, when all at once the impressions slowed down.
I even raised my bid to 0.080 and still nothing??

I just was wondering if anyone else has had or have this happen too them.
If so what steps did you take too get the traffic rolling again?

Any help on this would be great:confused:

        Even at 0.10 I was getting a CTR of 0.14. It depends on how good your targeted ads are. Tip. Target Mobile Browsers i.e iPhone and Android.

          Maybe if you want quick clicks, but many case studies show that targeting actual browsers yield better end results. Since they are more willing to submit their information or buy something on a computer as opposed to a phone.

          Just think about how you browse on your phone. Are you going to whip out a CC and put your info on a phone? I know I'm not.

    Sometime you might want to try loosening up your targeting. Often people tend to target to deep and get no volume.

    To the OP: You can get a mix of guesstimated answers by asking here, since you've not provided any specific information... OR ... you can just shoot a message to the advertising team at POF. You should have been assigned an account manager when you started your POF advertising account and you should have their e-mail/phone #... holler at them and see if they can't straighten it out for you. They're VERY helpful and they actually want to help you make money.

    you raised your bids to .08? i'll assume you are targeting the 110x80 in the usa,you should be bidding around 0.50-.60cpm at least as this will give you higher quality traffic

    are you sure its 0.080, not 0.80? thats very low .... if you are bidding 80 cent already and not getting impressions, you target too tight....

    ok now problem solved, AU traffic is much lower than US, UK and CA traffic, that's why you got no impression there

    POF is definitely a great traffic source. 1 tip is to bid 1cent lower than the recommended CPM(it will save you money in the long run and still give you the traffic you want).

    Currently at .127%

    Try playing around with ad copy as well. Split test two or three different ads with different images. Choose the one with the highest click through rate.
