Hi guys,

Do Yahoo and MSN PPC still allow direct linking to CPA or CB?

Will my campaigns get slapped?

Will my account get deleted?

Please Help

Thanks

    Am not sure if they allow, but I'd never do that.

    I started several successful campaigns with direct linking to cpa, but I'm afraid I can be slapped, or that my account deleted.

    Yahoo Tips:
    1. Use keywords in ad text
    2. Bid for double exposure
    3. Take advantage of bid gaps
    4. Avoid bidding wars
    5. Use both standard and advanced match types
    6. Use excluded words
    7. Use a relevant landing page
    8. Try the plural trick
    9. Don't forget about MSN
    10.Track your results

    I can't find the information on Microsoft adCenter Editorial Guidelines but I'm pretty sure you can't do it. Anyway here's the link to it: Editorial Guidelines for adCenter

    You might pay $100 for 10 Sales in Yahoo, or $1000 for 20 sales in Google, say in a week's time. Yes Google got more volume for you, but Yahoo converted better for a much larger margin. Each network has it's pluses and minuses, and again Google is good, and you can make a killing in Google, but if you have not yet tried Yahoo, you might just really be missing out on a large share of ad space.

      There is no more Yahoo ads...it's all been converted over to MSN AdCenter.

        I meant, does yahoo and msn allow direct linking.I'm ok with my affiliate / cpa network.

        I've read a lot of threads here on that topic, and most of the answers are positive, but these threads are old.Maybe yahoo has changed something...

        I'm also interested does FB allow this?If somebody knows, please pm me.

    Why in the world would you direct link without a landing page. You can multiply your conversion rate several times over with minimum effort.
