    I'm thinking of signing up for azoogle and wanted to know if azoogle allows traffic from craigslist. I looked over their TOS and have not come to a conclusion. I also have not received a reply on an email I sent with my question.

    My traffic would not come directly from CL, what it would be is

    CL->Email->landingpage->azoogle offer


    any experienced azooglers out there who can help?

    Best Regards, Robert

    I don't think you'll have a problem with that. I don't think they care much about the source of the traffic.

    its all about how you are protraying it etc... the main issue is does the offer back out for the advertiser and also make sure you are goign against any terms on CL.

    I don't think Azoogle would be the problem. As long as you don't expect to throw your AZ affiliate links just like that on openly on craigslist.

    yeah, as I stated. The traffic would be funneled as:

    CL->Email->landingpage->azoogle offer

    just wondering if the savvy CL user went to the advertiser or network, would it be a risk of losing commisions and time spent on the project.

    AzoogleAds does not allow traffic from Craigslist.

    Thanks,

    not only that, but ive heard savvy cl user will report you to your network and then you may lose your az account or cj account etc...

    If the visitor path is as you state:

    CL->Email->landingpage->azoogle offer

    ... then azoogle will not know where the visitor originally came from unless someone takes the time and trouble to contact them and complain.


    One observation:

    Your path looks very similar to the classic personals trick. If this is what I think it is, then yes ... you could lose your account if you're not careful.

    andheresjohnny is correct,

    cl traffic is regular human traffic just like anyother person surfing the net. How is a craigslist user any different from some one that is not surfing craigslist?

    the issue has to do with placing your AZ aff link directly into a craigslist post. That would constitute a red flag.

    lol last year AZ didnt really care what/where/when traffic came from. even spyware was allowed. now thats gone as well as "free" ringtones ...

    a lot of affiliates like shoe got away with a lot. now that big brother is watching, they have to be super careful.

    The process for getting a potential lead is too long. Explore the LP development for mini site that CL can't deny.
