Sorry I thought I replied to this!

I haven't ran on Revcontent in a while mate. On eggshells in case I get banned because I don't think they like Nutra/Advertorial/SS anymore.

If anyone else sees this who may be running nutra with advertorials to straight sales, let me know haha I'd be straight back up and running if so, and I'd continue the follow along starting again

I just launched a new VSL campaign and it's approved, it seems like advertorials are a no-go at the moment (unless it ends up stripped of everything that makes it work well)

Let's see how this goes from now!

I have the usual rules setup:
20 visits 0 lander clicks
$100 spent 0 conversions
40 visits <3 clicks 0 conversions

Very curious to see how this turns out, maybe less competitive? Maybe it tanks, who knows.. we will see!

 

[Anth]

Damn.. It definitely seems less competitive now

Overspent and blasted $233 in 20 minutes!

Did not expect that! Now since it's VSL I'll have to wait to see if there are any sales from it. Fingers crossed!

 

[cdm]

Damn.. It definitely seems less competitive now

Just more bots and less traffic

WOAH bro, how?

I've been struggling to get traffic recently in the 0.30's. I've only been able to get traffic at mid/low 40's consistently the past few days.

Looking at it though, that vCTR is looking really good. Maybe that's what it is.

EDIT: Maybe it's bot traffic as @cdm says, because my blocklist is in the 400's so maybe that's why I'm not getting much traffic at lower levels.
But that can't be the case can it, because the average desktop bid on RevContent past 30 days for US - Desktop has been $0.15-$0.25 according to account manager.

Pretty sure Anth is running mobile. But the bids have fallen that much!? Insane

Possibly!

Yeah as Varun said, I'm running mobile! Lol, my blocklist is like 2.9k widgets from the previous spend. I had these bids way too high plus pacing was off so it just blasted. Last night I was out having drinks and seen a sale come in, then I had rules to auto-increase budget so with the pacing on still and higher bids it spent even more. Rookie mistakes I must admit, but I wasn't expecting it to be this easy to blast.

Yup, mobile mate. I've lowered again today, sitting at 0.22. Will see how that goes now with pacing ON.

Yesterday ended like this after spending more by accident:

TheOptimizer was also blocking widgets wrong because the traffic was so fast!

How much spend did it take to get such a huge blacklist?

I'm assuming you're running 20 visits with no clicks.

What difference have you noticed between desktop and mobile campaigns?

The best feeling and motivation to have another drink
Tomorrow? we'll see , right?...

Not sure but it's over $160k!

Mobile has much more traffic, and way more to clean up too!

Yesterday Update:

I had pacing off for half of the day, and then turned it on. Not bad, I'll keep the budget at $150/day for now and see how it goes!

Update as of today? Sorry if bumping old thread.

Update as of today? Sorry if bumping old thread.

I stopped running here since their moderation got very strict, pretty much stripping landers of everything that made the offers convert.
