    Today i got a mail from my AM

    I am a international affliate . My only means of traffic was YSM, i never even thought of some other traffic. My ROI was around hundred.

    I was getting like 25+ leads for past 4 days n now it has asked me to stop it.

    I was running True.com offer alone. Now please suggest me which offer do works well in Azoogle.

    I read true.com converts well in some forum n i tried it n got profit.
    I am afraid of testing other niches since i had only a tiny investment on YSM

    So please help me here to find other possible good niches in azoogle like other dating offers n also other products. I tried ringtones but wasnt sucessful since i face lot of problem in getting my Keywords getting approved in YSM


    Thank U

    I don't get it. Isn't it CPA? So isn't it already converting, and them paying your only for conversions?

    Do you ask your AM to know more about it? Since you doing quite well with dating site, how about promote other dating site like eharmony, mate1?

    For eHarmony, you have to ask your AM enable for you. But the payout is a little bit low compare with other dating site. Not too sure about bbw, never try it before.

    What kind of CPA program was it if they were losing money? Free sign ups?

    Using eharmony is quite a gamble especially going up against there already saturated tv presence here in the states.
    Maybe I'm wrong.

    I got the True boot as well via my AM. No big loss, that's for sure.

    From what I understand, the action that is paid out on is when the user signs up for the free one week trial.

    They are booting people whos leads do not actually subscribe after the week is up.

    Quite frankly... once a qualified lead signs up on their site for the free trial... it's really more True.com's responsibility to convert them into a paying subscriber. IE, once the lead is in your lap, it's up to you to close the deal.

    It's not that big of a deal, but it's pretty tacky IMO. I for one, certainly won't ever push traffic to True.com again, even if their payout is superior.

    I liked that true had a lot of niches. Asian, Hispanic, Black, Gay, etc... too bad the other dating sites don't pick up on this.

    All it is is a landing page...

    The reason why some lead conversion programs will boot you is because they are paying you up front for memberships.

    They make their money by turning your leads into long-term subscribers. if all your leads cancel after a month, then you are likely costing them money and they will boot you.

    Not all businesses seem to track this the same as others. So there are some companies that eat bad traffic and don't notice. But if they get you, what can you do, it is what it is.

    Singlesnet is good. (I have around 40-50 cent eCPC with it)

    Bad eCPC in my experience.

    No kidding. I'm tired of advertisers putting the burden on us for everything. Our job is to hook up buyers with sellers, simple as that.

    singlesnet is where it's at right now. True's rehashing of lead quality has dropped them down on the totem pole.
