Getting Started on PPV

15 replies
Hi everyone,

I'm also starting out on PPV using Lead Impact with W4. However, I have not met with much success yet. I have currently spent $200 only to get $40 in revenue which is a lost of $160. Most of the conversions of just one off conversion which I'm unable to continue getting despite running the campaign further.

For the URLs to bid, I would do a google search on the related keywords and scrape the first 10-20 URL for each keyword manually. I will also do a search on Alexa and scrape the first 10-20 URL manually.

I was thinking that since Lead Impact's pop up is 800X600, will the offer page not load well after the user has clicked on my landing page. Should I be resizing the advertisement window to full size so that the offer page can be viewed properly or should I open a new window upon clicking on the landing page to open the offer page in a new full window?

I was wondering if people can share with me your success on how to select URLs to bid on and how you work your landing pages and tips on offer selection?

Any questions on my campaigns and advice/help will be very much appreciated.

Thanks

    AT start i never look at conversions reason is when you will have clicks you will get conversions and when you you have CTR you will get clicks , So always my first priority is to get CTR in your case you got some offer which is converting now what you need to do is to try out different landing pages .. And never give up , It takes a bit hardwork and time but is totally worth it , If you need some inspiration check out 85% CTR on PPV traffic and also this might help you too .. Questions you should ask from yourself if your PPV traffic is not converting

    Should I be resizing the advertisement window to full size so that the offer page can be viewed properly or should I open a new window upon clicking on the landing page to open the offer page in a new full window?
    Yes this can help. I don't know about LeadImpact, but defiantly with TrafficVance. Mainly because different versions of IE can cause different problems.

    I always have all my aff links open in a new window, and force it to full size.

    I'll hook you up with the script I use...

    Here is what you need to do... add a redirect to your offer, and include this script in the redirect's code.* Which takes over the user's browser and forces the new page opening (the offer) to appear in a full sized window. Here is the code:

    So just to be clear....* Your 800x600 PopUp* -->* Redirect with Script from below --> Your offer opening in a full sized window.

    Code:
    <script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">// <![CDATA[
    window.onload = maxWindow;
    
    function maxWindow()
    {
    window.moveTo(0,0);
    
    if (document.all)
    {
      top.window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
    }
    
    else if (document.layers||document.getElementById)
    {
      if (top.window.outerHeight<screen.availHeight||top.window.outerWidth<screen.availWidth)   {     top.window.outerHeight = screen.availHeight;     top.window.outerWidth = screen.availWidth;   } } }
    // ]]></script>

    I almost exclusively target the same URL as the offer I am promoting

    For gathering urls, this is often what I do to start so I don't see an issue there.

    Do you have a landing page or are you just direct linking? I strongly recommend you come up with a landing page.

    And as others have said before...

    Split test landing pages - start testing a single LP vs direct linking, and then once the LP you are using becomes the bets performer, drop the DL, and test other landing page variants against the 'champion' variant on an ongoing basis.

    You should also test video, sounds, dynamic content (geo, etc).

    Good luck!
