    Then you should stop sending 7search traffic to these offers. This is like he is telling you that you have been blacklisted from these offers but in a nice way.

    IMO you should stop promoting these offers permanently and try to avoid these advertisers offers in the future because the advertiser marked your affiliate ID and iam sure if you sent any traffic in the future he is going to scrub the leads (may be automatically). Be safe and drop these offers to keep your money and your account safe.

      I would also be interested in the offers that you were running, Espresso. May I take a look at your 7Search account? You can email me at bstanley at 7Search dot com.

      Regards,
      Brad

        I love the thread title. It wouldn't matter WHERE you got the traffic. They just don't want the traffic period because it's not working for them. It's not a 7search issue, it's the merchant who isn't converting your traffic.

        You will find this happens to you and everyone else in the future too. It has been going on forever online with CPA marketing.

          But is it the norm for the advertiser not to pay?

    Merchants sometimes request that particular affiliates stop running their campaigns because the traffic sent hasn't backed out for them financially. This doesn't mean that your traffic overall isn't "good" or that other merchants won't like it.

    If you keep getting asked to stop sending traffic to different merchants' offers, then maybe it's worth taking a look at how you are targeting and where you are getting your traffic. But being asked once isn't a sign that you need to find a new source/technique.

    it's just not 7 search my friend. it's mostly advertisiers who complain like little girls. There are times when i sent traffic from facebook ads but i cloaked every thing. They said you are not sending good traffic, They though i was using 2nd tier and told me to look in to Facebook ads Lol.

    Not every leads going to convert for them. Here is another thing,there are a lot of new advertiser ( merchant ) trying to collect leads from cpa networks. they are most luckily to complain as low budget.

    It's okay, i got blacklisted on one of the peerfly offers too, was using 7search to promote it, got a few conversions out of it, and then blacklisted, without any notifications or warnings.

    I would just stop promoting this offer with 7 search. I wouldn't take it to mean that 7 search traffic is crap, just for whatever reason the advertisers felt you weren't converting enough. No big deal, just move on.

      It's because the problem wasn't actually 7Search. The same could have happened with Google or Facebook traffic. Sometimes, the keywords, demographics and angles we use with a certain traffic source generate traffic that doesn't convert well on the back-end for the advertiser, but it doesn't the traffic source is bad, it just means that the traffic we are getting isn't suitable for that offer.

    You just need to switch to at least one other source of traffic that will make the advertiser happy, otherwise you risk getting taken off the offer.
