Inaccurate Display URL - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

Lingo · 08-13-2008, 12:35 PM

Hi there,

Im doing some direct linking testing and my adds are getting disapproved for reason 'Inaccurate Display URL'. Now from a little googlin i have come accross posts saying that google does not allow redirects (Which is how my domain is setup).

If this is the case, how can i get around this or what is the easiest way for me to test the offer through direct linkng.

Cheers in advanced for any help.

If your landing page is geo targeted for a foreign country and it redirects to a different url for US Ips, then Google sometimes considers it as inaccurate display url.

Well my offer landing page is in the US and my domain is registered with a UK company (dont know if that makes a diff).

Anyways what can i do to sort this?

erm. You're not putting your redirect as the display url right?
like if you go from tracking101.com->mymerchsite.com, mymerchsite.com is the display url. not the redirect.

My domain is in the display url.

And my domain redirects to tracking202 and tracking202 links to Azoogle.

The display url must match the final landing page in google. Which is the url that the offer is hosted on.

So the user gets bounced aroung like this:

Click's Ad -> Your site -> Redirect to tacking202 ->redirect to Azoogle jump page -> redirect to actual offer (yourspammysite.com/makemonnies)

In this case the display url must be yoursoammysite.com

Disadvantage?

Correct me if I am wrong guys, but only one ad with the same url will be displayed in the SERPS at a time. That means that every guy directlinking only has a small chance of getting an impression if they are targeting the same keywords.
