Can't monetize my FB Traffic - Help!

6 replies
I'm relatively new to Facebook Social traffic. I have a few dating campaigns that seem to be doing really well in terms of CTR (and as a result dirt cheap traffic). My problem is no matter what Offer I send this traffic to it does not convert - help!

Some specifics:

1)I have been iFraming the various affiliate offers using a tool that Luke from Peerfly built (seems to work great - thanks Luke!) so I am not using a landing page.

2) One of my offers is Brazilian traffic - I have tried several different Brazilian dating sites as the destination (for example, today I sent 400 visitors to Corazon Dating (of the Date.com network on CJ) and got ZERO conversions. I have also sent this traffic to AmoLatina (Peerfly) which - oddly enough after sending 335 visitors I realized does NOT accept Brazilian traffic (figure that one out).

3) Tried a couple US dating sites out thinking that some of these folks from Brazil may know English - nothing.

4) Put together a similar campaign and targeted US traffic - various US dating sites (great, cheap traffic from Facebook and NOT ONE CONVERSION anywhere).

I am at a loss as to what to do - could this all be bad luck, does Facebook traffic just not convert without a landing page (I would have thought ONE SALE).

At this point I am willing to give away my campaigns (Angles/images/Portuguese translation even (LOL) if someone can just monetize this traffic and split the proceeds with me. I am at a loss. I feel like I have two campaigns that I could just 'flip the switch on' and send thousands of visitors for dirt cheap but no matter where I send these people no one ever signs up/buys or even registers it seems.

Can anyone help? (Note: I would prefer someone with a good reputation on WarriorForum because I am not just looking for someone to steal my campaigns without mutual benefit

    Why not send them to your landing page and capture an email address. Since your not converting you might as well collect emails so you can convert some later.

    The way i've monetized a facebook page is by creating an ugly opt in page that doesn't seem salesy and then hit them with an email sequence for whatever offer you want them to buy..

    Right off the bat from fb to whatever you want them to buy will most likely not work, i've personally tried this as well a few times with no success at all.

    Thank you both so much! I may have to try some idea like Gengis suggested above (I would have thought that sending this traffic directly to one of the offers I tried would have converted at least ONE person. I am probably 0 conversions for almost 1,000 visitors (across about 6 different dating sites adn everything from CPA to CPS). It would have been a LOT more visitors but I keep pausing my campaigns once I realize none are converting. Yikes!

      Hey bro check out just one of my ugly opt ins that I have for 1 of my many pages on fb so you can get an idea of what i'm talking about

      Juicing Rocks .. This is for a pretty new page and honestly I haven't promoted this link much other than putting it in the page description saying "Get 17 free juicing recipes here -->link" and posting it with pictures from time to time saying "make sure you sign up for your 17 free recipes here -->link!"

      I actually haven't even promoted anything to this group yet but i've collected about 200 names pretty quickly.. And the only thing I invested was a domain which I paid like $2.99 for and like 8 minutes putting together this ugly opt in form so not bad..

    All of this mentioned sites has too much commercial landing page and it's not an eye catchy landing page. What you need is something more natural, pictures of woman from real life, not high resolution one.
    Another thing, targeting Brasil... Not good choice. If you been in Brasil you will know why.
    What you need is Facebook fan page, dating one for free open minded person ready to make date same night, go this way and than slowly make your visitors hot and ready to join your offer.

    I think you can send your users to your landing page, it can make difference.
