Hello, I wish to send azoogle traffic. Do they let you host your own landing pages? How would I go about making sure that they don't see my traffic sources? I want to make sure that they do not obtain the information about my advertising networks. We are currently generating over 500 ringtones per day...even 1000 some days... Please let me know... Thank You!
So you are asking how to hide your fraudulent traffic from Azoogle, on a message board monitored by Azoogle? Great first post dude.
iatmarketing, If you are sending legitimate traffic, I'm not quite sure why you'd need to mask where your traffic is coming from. There are lots of ways to mask your redirect links, although there's really no reason to do so. If we know where the traffic is coming from and its of high value, we would most likely be able to pay you more for those leads as higher-quality leads are more valuable to our advertisers. Feel free to email me if you have more questions. Thanks. Alex
A Ha - I'd say that AlexAzoogle was a man with inside knowledge (call it a hunch ). I'd say you'd been busted iatmarketing!
lol.... you guys are losers... I've already got something going with azoogle. Thanks for the response Alex.
I understand why you could partly want to hide your sources, as it is a legitamite concern. Who is to say you AM or my AM could see what i am targeting and go for it... as far as i know there is nothing to stop them.. and this isn't towards azoogle it is towards all networks. but there is easy ways with redirects etc. that makes it harder to tell the true source of your traffic. the only think i do suggest is that your traffic be of quality cause even if they don't know the source they do know if it converts and holds or not.
Heh....when I think of wanting to protect a traffic source I immediately think of MySpace phishing+bulletin spamming.
Yeah I am a bit paranoid about this as well. I have been mulling over some ways to better disguise my traffic, but really more importantly my subids so they are not so obvious. I guess a good question for Alex would be is how accessible is that information, and should we be paranoid. My affiliate managers with Azoogle have been great and trust them, but that doesn't keep me from being paranoid that information on what I am doing might be available in the system for someone else to look at...
Yop aeiouy you are right... I will never be secure with the fact that the company can see exactlly what I do to drive traffic to them... I don't think its fair for the more succesfull affiliates that drives $1000's of sales per day to reveal their traffic sources/methods to the affiliate programs. What if the program closes down tomorrow and they know exactlly what the affiliates do to drive traffic? What if an employee just decides to quit and use these methods himself... its just common sense to be insecure about this type of stuff...
I was paranoid also at first with keywords and stuff especially when your sending directly to azoogle or other affilaites. But then you look at the volume you do vs there overall and you have to weigh really... your insignificant amount of data vs what they already get. Even if they were monitoring keywords that convert is your masking yours going to really matter for the time its going to take you to encode/decode.... probably not. You also have to remember that azoogleads people were affiliates LONG before they started azoogleads and very successful affiliates at that. When I started shoemoneyads a few times people thought I just started it so I could get there keyword lists.... I just had to laugh at that.
Good points Shoe. Probably time better invested elsewhere. Every once in a while we want to bask in our own genius, but given the amount of data they process, not worth worrying about.
Are you suggesting that an affiliate manager (that is getting paid to manage accounts such as mine and yours) would go out on a limb and spend their own money on PPC so they can compete with their own affiliates? Don't they have a financial stake in our success?
