Promoting mobile dating offer. Conversion rate too high?

12 replies
Hi,

So im pretty new to CPM and CPL, however I have set up a winning campaign in the mobile dating niche.

Users get redirected from my LP to the offer page where they sign up... and I supposedly get paid. However this turned out to not be the case, I generated 10 leads, from 20 impressions (impressions on the actual offer page), from 70 impressions on my LP in a trial run...

I thought I was in the money, but since looking at the 'Pay per lead, conversion/commission rate' table, if you convert >=15% you earn nothing... Table below:
CONV:COMMISION
1% £ 0.60
2% £ 1.20
3% £ 1.80
4% £ 2.40
5% £ 3.00
6% £ 3.60
7% £ 4.20
8% £ 4.80
9% £ 5.40
10% £ 6.00
11% £ 6.60
12% £ 7.20
13% £ 7.80
14% £ 8.40
15% £ 0.00


I find this extremely strange.
Can anyone explain to me why the dating company don't pay anything if your conversion rate is =>15%?
Also can anyone suggest how I can combat this problem and lower my conversion rate (never though I'd ask that!!)?



Thanks,
Harry.

    That is the dumbest thing ever. What cpa network is this?

    I would just send some fake clicks.

    I would say find a new offer, but if it is converting just send some fake clicks to shut them up.

      Cheers for the reply,

      I went direct to the dating network: Niche affiliate marketing with the UpForIt Networks affiliate network

      Ill take a look into fake clicks - never done it before but I may as well try!

          I've only just started out with PPC/CPM so I'm taking it easy with dating. I've got this down to like 200% ROI if I can get this payment/commission thing working!

          How do you go about promoting pay per call? I've been told that big time players have taken most of it over?

          Thanks,
          Harry.

            So I got in touch with the affiliate network... turns out the table I posted above represents the amounts that you receive based on the conversion rate on their end, i.e. the amount of my leads that convert to sales for them. (you have to have at least 1 conversion/sale from their end to get any sort of 'conversion rate'


            So I guess my question now is, (to anyone who knows about the mobile dating scene), which of the three options below do I go for?


            Option 1: Carry on promoting mobile dating offer that I am doing. (I'd need at least a 2% conversion rate - can anyone with experience tell me if this is possible through simply generating leads, and not pushing for sales at all?)/
            Option 2: Change to a CPS program/model, because if I do get a 2% conversion rate then i'd earn more (£76 per sale). £152 per 100 leads (CPS) vs £120 per 100 leads (CPL). But again, this heavily relies upon conversion rate at their end... I wont be pushing it at all.
            Option 3: Find and promote a different dating offer through an affiliate network, that pays a set amount (about £1.80 per lead) regardless of my end conversion rate.




            Any advice is greatly appreciated!

    There must be an error or some type of typo. The payment schedule makes no sense.

      Thanks for the replies. It was a typo on their behalf, and I misinterpreted what they said.

    I am in the adult offers niche and I have worked with UpForIt and they WERE good. For some reason they have stopped paying out and arent that good anymore. They have turned into a scam affiliate site more than anything else so be careful!

    That is odd. Why the hell somehow don't like high conversions. You should ask your AM, looks to me like some sort of confusion.
