Questions about Facebook and landing pages

6 replies
Hello All!

I finally got accepted into a CPA network (Thanks A4D!) and am using Facebook to promote my first campaign. So I asked my account manager for a good offer that's converting well on FB and he gives me one. Within the offer details I have several links to landing pages provided by the company.

So I went on FB and created a fan page, paid for advertising to get some "Likes" and have a good amount of people who I can now advertise to. So when I tried to post on that fan page, FB wouldn't let me post because I used the affiliate's direct link to their landing page.

So now I'm thinking "Okay, so I probably need to create my own landing pages..." which is fine, but here's where the questions lie...

- Would my custom landing page just link to the affiliate's landing page where the customer would then provide the required info?

- Wouldn't this create an extra step for the customer? How do I optimize this experience?

- Is there a way for me to get the conversion from my own landing page? Would I use iFrame's for this?

Thanks for the help folks, this forum has been truly awesome!

    A few reasons...

    1. Well, the companies (advertisers) don't know how you are going to promote the offer, so it is hard for them to make a good landing page. Since a landing page for PPV is going to be different, than say a landing page for Facebook Ads.

    2. A landing page is use pitch the product more, giving the use addition reason to buy/convert.

    3. The landing page gives you an opportunity to put an angle on the product's pitch, for example you are promoting a mop, and you use your landing page to explain how well they would work for a stay at home dads. lol Since you traffic source is targeting dads. This is great because the more targeted you can make your ads/campaign the cheap clicks you can get.

    Try out Social Media Bar, it should let you then share the link that you want.

    I wouldn't direct link anything on FB to an affiliate offer; CPA or Clickbank.

    So use your own domain... but then take it a step further with CPA (even with clickbank) and create your own lander. From the lander, you can direct people to the CPA offer, but I wouldn't place the affiliate link anywhere on your lander... use your domain name as a redirect to the CPA offer so there's no trace of the actual CPA affiliate link.

    Tricks are great, but not when it puts your account in jeopardy. If you're looking to make some quick bucks and risk your account with the HIGH likelyhood that you won't be around next year, let along next week or month, then tricks are for you.

    But if you want a lasting "bidness", then always try to work within a traffic sources TOS <-- just my .02

    Greedy was right for all.
    I would suggest you to send them to your email listing and monetize them whatever way you like in future.
