Hey guys, I am new to mobile CPA and just last night started a campaign on buzzcity. I bid 1 cent per click where as recommended bid was 2 cent for that particular country.

I want to know that have you ever put a bid lower than recommended bid and got traffic? because even after approval of campaign I didn't received any traffic . So I reset the bid to recommended bid of 2 cent per click.

I only tried once to get traffic below recommended bid, it was a campaign targeting worldwide with $0.01 CPC. I got 1000+ clicks within 1 or 2 hours and I stopped. When I check where was the traffic from, a lot of them are actually from countries with high recommended bid >$0.05

But when I setup another campaign targeting those countries (Recommended bid >$0.05) with $0.01 CPC, I get no traffic. So I guess it was something with their system, whether they assign your campaigns to the traffic sources manually.

  Now I have received about 181 views, and 3 clicks. The traffic is too low . 3 clicks in 8 to 9 hours is horrible.
  
  Thanks

You should start with bid of $0.01, if you don't get enough traffic, bid higher.

  Let me know what happened...
  If you bid high and you still have no conversion I would recommend you to stop the campaign or change banner, you don't want to spend all of your money in the beginning.

  When you're starting out, you definitely need a larger budget than that to test and figure out what works and what doesn't.
  
  Thanks

  hey david, I also wanted to ask your something. In buzzcity when we create campaign there are options of type of traffic your want. At last there are 2 options one is glamour/dating and other one is adult site. Now it is abvious that traffic from adult sites is adult traffic, but do we count traffic from glamour and dating sites in adult traffic too??
  
  Thanks
