Official Cpalead.com - General Discussion / Network Performance

is there anything wrong with CPALead because nothing is converting for the last 2 hours ???

 

Experiencing the same here.

 

Is anyone else experiencing some lag time before the gateway pops up even when the interval is set at 0 seconds?

 

Today I have had the same amount of clicks, but converted nothing. Is anyone experiencing the same?

 

Probably just a delay in the system. Maybe they are making a few changes or something. (I hope)

 

Our quality of offers varies day by day. Yesterday we had some amazing offers in the system, however the quality did not back out for the advertiser and we ended up losing money on it (we took the loss). Today those surveys are removed, but we're working on getting more higher converting surveys.

 

Any news on the international offers you were trying to get in to? I know perfspot and freelotto failed, but very keen to have something as I get a considerable Asian traffic

 

Manage Traffic feature is a great update I liked it

Please try to get a international survey in your struggle to get high converting surveys.

 

Just a tip to all you guys with TV/Movie Sites. Don't try get rich by getting people to sign up as your refferal etc.. the fewer people who make sites like ours the better. otherwise this market will get saturated and be really hard to earn money etc..

How much you guys earning daily lately?

 

It's been varying for me, over 3 sites averaging about $35 a day currently, one day getting around $0.12 epc and make around $60, the next day only make about $30. Have noticed inreased competition recently, which has reduced my income markedly.

 

Yeah competition is gradually increasing so try keep it as quiet as possible, dont share your methods etc..

 

There is plenty of traffic to go around. If you need more traffic, invest in PPC or start creating viral youtube videos that advertise your site. The key to earning more is to reinvest your earnings and take over other niches and discover new innovative advertising methods.

 

quick question about new manage traffic i like it as i can ban the users from the site

bad leads are pain in the ass but its obvious you going get some users just entering any info

but why does manage traffic show Reversals as $1.05 even if the survey they complete was say $0.34
also why does mange traffic show 6 bad leads but the bad lead link shows 30

 

This is ridiculous. Do you honestly believe that I will continue to invest money in PPC, driving traffic to your gateway, when I just had "THAT" many leads reversed? You just essentially erased my ROI and put me in the negative. That's dumb. My goal is to make money, not lose it. I invested more in PPC because I thought I had a thing going. But I will simply stop if you're not going to protect your affiliates against reversals.

I think CPALEAD is getting shady. Their tracking seems shady as well. How is it that one day, you can have a 20% conversion ratio, and another, with the same amount of clicks, from the same traffic source, with the same offer, you can have a 0% conversion ratio after sending in over 80 clicks? That is unreal.

Ask yourself, if you were running a network based off submits from other networks, knowing how CPA networks shave leads, how would you protect yourself? I believe it's the same answer to the two above paragraphs.

I'm not sending them anymore paid traffic.

 

i ve sent queries twice regarding referral affiliate via the user panel system. There is no reply (quite unusual) and i want to find out the application status of my referral. Anyway I can do?
Thanks

 

PPC works if you know how, right niches, and if your a pro (degrees etc..) at it the better.

 

I completely agree with this guy, CPAlead seems to be getting really shady recently. I've gotten the same amount of clicks for the last two weeks (100-200 clicks) but just now randomly I can't even make more than $5 a day, when I used to get around $15 doing the same thing I do everyday. Somethings going on and it's starting to bother me, I thought about investing a lot of more time and money into cpalead but now I'm really not so sure.
It's sad really.
And what's funny is that this starts to happen when Impressions are suddenly screwing up with so much traffic so cpalead doesn't have to tell us how many impressions we have even though we have our own website stats so there's no real way of telling if impressions match up to page visits.
Seems fishy to me.

 

When you use the Manage Traffic page, make sure your search date range is all time, and not just the last three days (default), because your bad lead page shows all time

 

We are weeding out the bad advertisers and sticking with the good ones. You expect us to find you new surveys but at the same time that means we have to take risks with other advertisers. We have contracts that protect us against reversals, however not every advertiser will sign them. This is our first big reversal and I can assure you we will never work with that advertiser again.

As we grow and become a bigger network, more and more advertisers will be willing to sign the no reversal agreements so something that happens this seldom, will never happen.

Also, these insinuations that we are a shady network when we have been nothing but transparent to you guys is ridiculous. We had to stop the impressions because it was slowing down our servers, WE KNOW you guys can track your OWN impressions, why would you ever think we'd try to hide that information on purpose? We put that information up there on purpose in the first place to give you further transparency (we built our network from the ground up 100% from scratch, most networks use a leased system with little tracking). We make a commission off each lead, we do not make a dime off reversals. What other network shows you specifically which users caused the reversal and allows you to ban them from using your site? None. Most networks will just delete leads and you will spend days trying to find out which leads were deleted and why they were deleted, if you can get anyone to talk to you about it and if you notice the leads missing.

I would like to thank those of you who respect the fact that you are earning more with us than any other network and also understand that there will be some setbacks along the way as we march forward with a one-of-a-kind new and innovative network built specifically for websites like yours that progresses daily. To those of you who want to classify us by our few bad times that hurt us as well, by all means, go try to find a better network that is this transparent with this many tools.

 

Good to hear
and thank you for adding the manage traffic option i asked about this allows me keep check on members and know who is trying cheat the system

as for reversals there just a pain in the ass for everyone but i can honestly say ive made more money with cpalead then any other network ive tried the support is great and hope you guys continue to improve the system
