CPA links are being redirected! :(

Hi guys, I wondered if there is anyone who's got experience with CPA links being redirected?

For some reason, the links I type into my browser go to a UK poker site (I'm a UK resident). Now I worry that all the traffic I sent to these offers was a complete waste as they're probably seeing the same site!

What is going on? Do you think I can not promote US offers being UK resident? I'm promoting through FluxAds and my manager said to use US proxies- but the whole point, where am I sening all that traffic to if not to the proper destination?

Thanks so much in advance! Ivana

    So you're promoting a US only offer in the UK? If so, that's your problem. The offer will geo-redirect and you will not send users to the correct offer because the offer does not take on traffic from the country you're sending to.

    That's why you can see it because you live in the UK but if it's US traffic hitting the offer, the consumers wont see the correct LP.

    Thank you Steve, so are you saying that unless I send only US traffic to the offers, it's going to be wasted? But even though I can't see the landing page, US customers will?

      Exactly!

      I was experiencing the same. BUT, I simply asked my AM(Affiliate Manager) and he explained it to me like Stephen did.

      BTW, Stephen, it was exactly COPEAC I experienced this issue with. Your costumer service ROCKS dude.

    Steve, absolutely, it was almost for free till now and thanks so much for your answers. However, I'm guessing that as long as I send US traffic to the offers, I don't need to use proxies right? Sporry if I seem like a novice- that's because I am

      I'm not sure if copeac have this feature available, hopefully steve will be in touch, but some networks will give you the option to add a redirect to the offer.
      Meaning You can redirect any visitors from outside the US, who clicks your link, to a similar offer valid for their country, this way you are not wasting traffic and can still earn commissions from an international audience.

        We actually tried to implement this feature when we built our platform E-Media Track but we soon found how complicated the process was to allow all publisher to set up their own geo-redirects. We're looking to use a 3rd party that can handle this but to build it into the system would have taken up to 6 months and we didn't want to delay the release of the new platform.

    I suggest used some us proxy, than your ip address will change to US. then put affiliate link into browser see if it redirect again. Sometime those offer link not working right. Avoid doing all the work and got no conversion very important.
