Anyone having troubles with MaxBounty?

Hey there!

I recently bought one ebook from Williams (Flash CPA 2), it was pretty nice, I would recommend any newbie to buy it!

Well, I decided to try out, I started a PPC campaign at Google Adwords, got my landing page up and everything. I'm on a tigh budget so I decided to let the campaign run 30 clicks and just track it. At first my landing had a CTR of 16% and the offer (an email submit offer, the free iPhone offer) convertion rate was 40%, well I decided to apply some changes to my landing page. After applying some changes to the text and buttons I managed to get my landing page a 60% CTR, but then my convertion rate decreased BADLY.

I was checking my MaxBounty report each day, the offer was getting even 60 clicks and 0 convertions. I thought I was doing something wrong so I paused my Adwords campaign and I decided to try incentive offers, I went to some games and told some people to do some offers for me in exchange of game guides, I saw them typing in their email address and clicking submit, after 10 minutes I went to my MaxBounty report and guess what? the report said the offer got to 2 clicks but 0 leads, interesting, heh?

I asked to some people in my MSN to fill in some of those email submit forms, and some of them got an Expeired Offer page, weird, no?

Well, it didn't end up there, I was checking my MaxBounty report and I "got" clicks in offers I'm not even promoting! I contacted my AM about all this stuffs and she said it was all fine that some of my users are being redirected to different offers because they live in different countries, but guess what?
I went to Google Analytics and all my visitors are pure US and also in my Adwords campaign I set I only wanted US traffic!

So why would they need to redirect an US web user from a US offer to another US offer? what's the point?

Anyways, anyone is having troubles with this guys?

PS : Sorry about making the thread so long

    Sounds like you are promoting email submit offers. Email submit offers are known for scrubbing and that is just the way it is. The number of leads submitted in comparison to the leads paid out will never match up. Email and Zip submits scrub like crazy man. It's a volume game with those. You need to hit them hard and hopefully in about 3 days time you do enough volume to capture some ROI. After 3 days they tend to scrub out and once the scrub happens it's downhill from there.

      Hey

      Best way is to call them up. Give your affiliate manager a ring and explain yoru situation ... or better yet, kick some major butt in there.

      That should do is as I think you're right. A bit silly of them doing that in the first place.
