Newbie Questions - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

Mr. Websites · 05-27-2008, 07:22 PM

I’m just starting to get acquainted with NeverBlueAds, in spite of having been approved for quite some time now. Given that I have minimal exposure to affiliate marketing - outside of the countless readings I’ve done - there remain several questions at the back of my mind. To begin with, I'm attempting to view the search creatives offered on NeverBlueAds for a campaign. However, when I access the pages it redirects me to a different (SmileyCentral) campaign. Although this seems logical since I'm not an American resident (where the campaign applies), the matter raises two questions:

If this alternate campaign (SmileyCentral) generates a lead or sale, will I be compensated?
How can I preview the creatives if I'm not situated in an area where the campain applies?

I would also assume that purchasing a domain for each campaign would be a wise option. However, how should I go about linking the domain to the campaign in question? Should I create a landing page (reduced CPC and better SERPs?), insert the affiliate page in it's entirety as an iFrame (not compatible with old browsers but higher conversions?), or use domain forwarding?
Rest assured, I will leave positive reputation points for any help and/or input.

You most likely will be compensated for the alternate campaign 'smileycenter' according to what my AM from Max Bounty told me but it could always vary from network to network you should make sure by asking your AM.

You can talk to your AM and have your default out of area page changed. If the ad is for the UK only, and when I preview it, I get a default page. That page can be changed to a general page to generate you money, or it could be just a page saying that the offer is not available in their area. You could tell your AM that you will host the page. then give him the URL like www.site.com/out-of-area.php then that page could be whatever you wanted. It could redirect to any offer you want, or you could create a form to grab email addresses, ect.

1. Yes you will get credit for a lead through the alternate campaign. This is common when clicks come from countries where your offer is not available.

2. Preview the creatives by using a proxy.

You can actually just click "preview offer" like at the top of neverblueads.
