My 1st sweepstake campaign

illusime · 31st Jul 2014, 09:03 PM

This is my 1st time on mobile campaign. I am starting a pin submit sweepstake campaign in leadbolt. After 1 day, I noticed my text ad gets a high 9% ctr while my banner ads didn't get any clicks. I am bidding at $0.07 CPC for malaysia traffic but got no clicks. Anyone can help why I am getting text ad clicks when I target on Android, blackberry and windows phone? Can I disable it? Does text ads convert for sweepstakes?

Any tips to get clicks for my banner ads? Thanks.

Leadbolt primarily has traffic in European countries not much volumes in Asia.

You will get a few clicks but volumes wont be great. be sure to add text ads . Increase the bid to 0.09 . Also make sure you have checked wifi traffic , its cheaper than only operator traffic.

WOW $0.07 per click that is way to expensive for a MY sweeps campaign were the offer payout is probably about $2, your fighting a losing battle.

Are you using a landing page?

I would recommend you try the ad network Decisive you can buy on a CPM basis.

Try and get your click cost down to $0.02 or $0.03 per click and aim for a banner CTR of at least 1% or more.

If you are using a landing page try and aim for a landing page CTR of 25% or more.

You need to pay higher for high converting traffic.

It doesn't matter if leadbolt says its "converting" traffic because you're paying more lol the only thing that matters is the maths.

The average sweepstakes offer EPC rate in Asia is 0.02 to 0.10 at the very very best so paying 0.07 per click OP would need an amazing landing page with almost a 100% CTR to even break even paying that much for a "click".

What @cashmobiaffiliate said is correct. .07 is way too high and they don't have any volume in Asia.

With Leadbolt, you have to have a text ad and there is no option to disable it. Which is why I don't like that network.

Work on getting quality traffic this will result in getting clicks on your ADD.

There is an option in LeadBolt to "Pause" ad texts. The option is under the "Ad Group". However, it's a pain creating text ads for all Campaigns - even though you don't intend on using them.
