    This depends on your traffic and the offer. Sometimes it works better if you redirect them to the LP first. While some offers work better if you direct link. Just do some split testing for your offers

    I don't have any experience with adbrite. But I wouldn't suggest to start with sitescout, since you are still learning. And they require a min. 500$ deposit. If you get a winning campaign you could think about scaling it up and starting with media buying.
    As for the beginning you should try facebook.

    About Facebook I really can't succeed there as I just don't believe in marketing through Social medias .

    I think its a great place for people to share and know your brand or new product however to bring potential clients from Facebook is not the best option .

    I just look to buy CPM and get sales , in theory it looks very simple ..


    Buy CPM for $1 , even if from 10k impressions you get 1 sale that gives you $15

    its 50% profit , not the worst deal you can find ( that's always the way I see it ,

    maybe Im too much old school as my businesses are all offline and Im new to the internet world ) ..

    Back to reality ... want to invest initial $50-100 to test some things ,

    I have my niche with product that I distribute offline and know my market VERY well

    also know in which websites clients looking for this products .

    Maybe I should talk the site owners and just ask to advertise there and that's it ?

    As I said , Im old school and came from the offline world and think the best way to build

    and established successful business is by meetings ( online meetings as well ) and share ideas , if anyone here is interested please PM me .

    Buy Ads | BuySellAds - they have minimum budget ?

    As from all this websites ( by what I've checked on Compete.com ) I saw Clicksor.com

    have the highest traffic ..

    Adbrite is a good place to start purchasing banner ads.

    Anyway, you need to create a landing page before sending visitors to an offer's page because it helps you to warm up visitors and increase conversion rate.

    If you are good at making landing pages you can almost always get them converting better than direct linking.

    So start practicing, but don't be afraid to test both.

    I personally belive media buying isn't the best start for a new marketer (I think social PPC is an easier route). However, if you want to give it a shot, go ahead, it's definitely possible to get started with this model and get good results.

    About using a landing page, it depends on the campaign. If you're not sure, test both options and let your data tells you which of them performs better.

    You should always split test between direct linking and a few different landing pages

    ok , first of all I would like to thank you all for the information here .

    I'll start building my landing page on WIX probably or WP and update soon ,

    this is going to be my first project and I hope to learn a lot from it.

    By what I've learned on the last days ,

    Im going to hire an SEO company ( already have one ) for organic search .

    And about the media buying - this part I would like to test by myself ,

    BSA seems to be interesting however direct connections to the websites owners

    seems like a more profitable and better for long term cooperation .

    Thank you all and take care .
