Thanks @Luke and thanks to everyone who's liking and commenting. I'm really happy this FA has worked out so well and hope it helps as many people as possible. For everyone who's still new (like me), don't be afraid of testing more things, because then you'll have results to analyse and...

Thanks Nick. That's exactly what I'm doing. After running the push smartlink for a while I found some geo/publisher combos just kept converting day after day with a healthy conversion rate, so I started rotating in some other offers from Mobipium, Mobidea and Monetizer to see how they'd go and...

So I'm thinking that I might make this my last post in this FA and do a bit of a wrap up because things have changed a bit... When I started out I had some experience promoting push offers from Mobipium and was almost ROI positive overall. This is how things looked then: All along, my...

My results are about 50/50 between the two, but they're pretty different. In my campaigns both sources have one main geo dominating the results, but it's a different geo in each source (and I haven't been able to get the big geo from one source to do much in the other source).

I'm refreshing some of my campaigns today, so I thought I'd do a bit of an update of how things have been going this last week... At the beginning of the week I pushed my bids up on a couple of campaigns and that brought some nice results with a couple of $30+ days and even a $50!! I haven't...

I'm really surprised at those results. I mean, red's probably expected, but 0 conversions for three of the smartlinks looks really strange to me. Just double check to make sure your links are set up/working properly because something doesn't seem right. Does the Mobipium dashboard agree with the...

What Akahma said: I try to just change one thing at a time between tests. I've mostly focussed on just dropping countries and publishers that have 0 conversions with 3x offer spend, but if a country or publisher is red but getting conversions I'll keep it around for a while unless the ratio is...

Akahma has a great point and I've definitely fallen into the trap of whitlisting too soon sometimes, but it might also be worth testing the campaign anyway because that's the only way you'll find out. I just took this screenshot to show you that Popads is saying the same thing to me right now...

Yeah, now that I've been running on ZP for a couple of weeks I feel like I might be just starting to get the hang of it which is a relief after my initial disaster when I blew through $50 without even realising that I could turn off the browsers I didn't want. I know I've still got a lot to...

Inching closer to $30/day with some help from ZP domain redirects :D I've found some green geos and sources on ZP so I'm playing around with bidding to try to find the sweet spot. I've found I can bid really high because the CVR is so good, but even when I leave things alone for a while the...

Sorry. I'd suggest to anyone reading this to just use the bid Luke used (0.00033) and then move on! The main thing I was trying to say was not to get hung up on the traffic estimator because sometimes the results of your campaign will not be anything like the estimate and that's OK. You'll only...

I just want to chime in quickly on the Popads traffic estimator and their other traffic tools because I've found they can be useful in terms of "rough ballpark", but these same tools can also be REALLY MISLEADING and sometimes you need to totally ignore them. Here's a couple of screenshots from...

🤬 Just joking. It's all good. That thought did cross my mind for a second, but I reckon that the more of us newbies are working through it together - to get as much experience as we can with as much help as we can from the veterans on here and from each other - the better off we're all going to...

Game changer 👏

Thanks @Luke - the encouragement here on AffLIFT really helps! Bit of a weird day yesterday. I struggled to get much traffic because there was a Monday Popads bidding war going on (I’m starting to notice this seems to be a bit of a thing, like people hitting the gym with a vengeance after the...

Hey @Luke - absolutely! It's Day 12 and a lot’s been a lot going on with this campaign and I’ve only been putting off updating this FA because I’ve been really confused about some crazy things the Smartlink has been doing and I wanted some time to try to understand the data and also get some...

Whoohoo - PropellerAds is green today!!

This is really cool. For a long time I found hard to learn that if I my campaign data is saying something then I need to listen, even if I was shocked, surprised or even indignant. This really only made sense after doing a lot of campaigns and confirming for myself that I can trust the data. I...

This is something I'm really starting to appreciate now that I'm getting the hang of optimizing.

Haha. Nope, not until just now, anyway. Took me a while, but I worked out how to find the browsers and all I can say is, "Thanks for nothing Android webview!" :poop: When I set up the campaign I thought it was really weird that I couldn't choose a browser, but figured I'd just run $5 and see...
