Apparently, i'd spent a huge sum of money to get traffic to do exactly what this CPA offer wants me to do. Screen shot below.



Here is the description of the CPA offer:

---
Description: Sign up with the HOTTEST dating site on the web!! EliteMate.com, Where Singles Meet!! Special Promotion. Get a Free Lifetime Membership.

Conversion Point: CONVERTS ON 1ST PAGE SUBMIT --> THIS!

Allowed Traffic: Email, web/banner, search OK. Can be Incentivized.

Other: 18+ US, UK, CA.
---


I even did a test myself, created a account by doing a first page submit and i got directed to another page. I insist that my traffic see what i see before i pay them. I understand that there's no money earned when i did a submit myself as i'm neither in US,UK or CA. However, the traffic that i bought was from US and it's really saddening to see that there isnt even 1 cent earned!

I would really appreciate if anyone would come out and point out my mistake :S

Or

This is my affiliate link:
http://login.revenueloop.com/z/11488/CD18632/"

DO NOT do any first page submit unless you replied in the post saying you would help me try. I just need 1 or 2 examples. Would really appreciate too if someone would offer his help as i'm really running broke by paying unneccesary money.

P.S. The CPA network is a reputable one and the problem shouldnt lie with them.

    Not sure what you really need pointed out. Maybe the leads just didn't convert.

    You only had 52 visitors see your offer, you need a hell of a lot more than that to see whether or not this offer will convert. Opinions will vary from each marketer to the next on how many visitors you should send to an offer to see if its a winner or not, but I think all will agree that only 52 visitors with no conversions isn't really something to start worrying about.

    I usually try to get a few hundred visitors before deciding to scale the offer up or dump it. You never know, the next 52 visitors you get may convert 5 of them, you never know which is why you should just let the campaign run longer.

    Not sure what your traffic source is either, maybe the leads you are getting aren't targeted enough, which is why none of them converted. Make sure you are targeting the right demographic for all of your offers.

      Hi,

      As out of the 52 clicks, 25 are paid $5 each as this is an incentivized offer. I spent over $100 and instructed them to do the first page submit. And they later confirmed with me that they had done so by tallying with what i see after i submitted the first page myself.

      WSO: I PROMISE/GUARANTEE you that this will be the LAST WSO you will ever need to purchase!

      Here's the thing. The above may seem too good to be true but all I can say is there isn't even 1% hype or BS in the above sentence. This WILL BE YOUR LAST WSO to purchase.

        Hmmmm...now that's a little different. You might want to speak to your AM and let them know what the deal is.

        Not sure where you found these people who you paid $5/each, whether they were on your list or if you got them from some other source, but you are only getting paid $6/lead from the CPA company, why are you paying so much and only leaving yourself with a $1 dollar profit? That is your first mistake.

    Hi man... Ill help you out.

    First mistake you have maid is the network. Revenue Loop is an OK network but for you, because if you don't do more then $999 then they will charge you 25% just to process your payment... If you do under $4999 then you will be charged 20% of your earnings for them to process payment... That is not good!

    If they are going to be charging you 25% and your offer pays $6 then your offer really only pays $4.5... This is not good!

    I would recommend going somewhere else.

    If you can... Pick up a free rotators scrips that will rotate your offers ( You can also use tracking 202 ) pick 3 or 4 ( more is better ) and rotate though the offers until you see what one is converting the best. Its funny how much better one offer can convert compared to another. This will allow you to find a profitable offer.

    You can search on offer vault for other dating offers.

    Hope that helps,

    Micah Rush

      I think the problem is how you will monetize the traffic.You bought the traffic right?Why don't you try to get traffics manually by doing marketing ways without spending too much.

    You "bought" the traffic? Unless this is PPC, you probably wasted some of your hard earned money here. About five years ago, I stumbled upon a site that guaranteed visitors from specific countries interested in specific niches. You could buy clicks from this company... and it was dirt cheap. Well, this is a flat out scam and here's why - these companies pop under, pop-up and pop-any-which way your page on another website. Yes, you did get a visitor, but the traffic is worthless because that visitor isn't interested in the pop up your site is featured on and 10 out of 10 times closes the window. In your analytics, you'll see unique IPs coming from that traffic, so it does look relatively legit; however you will never see results from this kind of marketing.

    But, perhaps you didn't purchase traffic this way. If not, I'm still sorry for your loss and wish you the best of luck in retooling with a new offer and different traffic.
