CPA: Are you direct linking or using landing pages?
After doing some research on Direct Linking vs Landing Page methods of promoting CPA offers, I found the following:
Direct Linking:
Google: It seems that most people agree on the fact that direct linking is a big no-no when it comes to Google Adwords. Do you agree?
Bing: I've also heard that Bing Ads gives a low quality score to the traffic redirect pages used to act as an intermediary between the ad and the offer landing page. But others say that it is ok to use direct linking with Bing Ads. What do you think?
Landing Page:
Google: The obvious solution to any potential direct linking problem is using landing pages instead of direct linking. However, it is clear that Google also frowns upon them and calls them bridge/doorway pages. Google penalizes such pages by banning them or giving them a low quality score.
Bing: I'm not sure how Bing treats landing pages. What do you think?
In short: What is the best traffic source for using landing pages? What is the best traffic source for direct linking?
Thanks!
