Affiliate Marketing Lessons – How to Fish 🎣

Affiliate Marketing Lessons – How to Fish
This thread initially asked a simple Propellerads traffic question but it has turned into one of the usual STM golden nuggets, with 3 pages of content from STM’s experts.
Multiple mods and members explaining in detail and teaching newbies ‘how to fish’.
Burning questions get answered, such as:
At what point do you stop testing and start focusing on a winner?
Should you rip landers from Adplexity? Let’s say you found a spinning wheel lander, should you make 5 variations of that and test or is this a terrible idea?
1 dating lander gets dissected by @twinaxe – see why this 1-column lander won’t work, and how to make it better
Why you should focus on offers first, landers second

First $XXX/day
STMer @jeffff came back after a while and posted these stats:
His first $XXX/day.
Here’s a quote:
“...I finally had my first $XXX day this month. Learned a ton with pop traffic, but ultimately applied that to other traffic sources to finally find some green. Took me a long time, but proof that if you stick with it, you'll eventually find your first $XXX day too!”
>> Go give Jeffff some love! <<

Make $x.xxx/Month With $3/Day campaigns

Make $x.xxx/Month With $3/Day campaigns
@twinaxe launched these beginner series to show you how to build-up your first stable profits without losing too much and moving forward in small (but steady) steps.
Here’s the gist of the guide:
“I´d like to tell you a bit about good approaches that are not too complicated so that they can also be implemented by beginners about how to start, make first profits and the use all the stuff you learn along the way to scale the profits.
It´s not about specific campaigns or so, it´s rather about things like:
Smart planning
Competitive advantage as a newbie
Bulding a winning mentality to keep you hungry
Working towards success not failure
Thinking longterm”
A good way to have more ‘yay’ than ‘nay’ moments, @twinaxe advises, is to break your big goal into several small goals.
Like aiming for $3/day campaigns.
Build those mini-campaigns up and you can get to $1350/month, easily covering your AM expenses.

Day 13: 💲💲/Day, Day 14: (Almost) 💲💲💲/day

It took solid preparation and networking.
@offshore received tips from our resident native expert @jack_l, read through @vortex’s native guide, and he made solid to-do lists.
Which he followed through to the last item.
Additionally – tools like TheOptimizer and LanderLab made things a real walk in the park.
Obvious results followed:
^That’s $155 cost and $194 revenue.
And this:
Is $677 cost and $762 revenue.
What you want to check though, is the major hurdle @offshore had to overcome on day 8 - this is exactly how he got profitable on days 13 and 14.
Things were looking dreary, to say the least:
“Pretty much just frustrated at this pointed and unsure what to do.”

How Do You Squeeze Maximum Benefit From Your STM Sub?
A great question by a new member.
So how DO you get the most of your STM membership?
Quotes below:
@twinaxe:
“Short reply:
First learn the basics of tracking and running campaigns, then rather focus on getting something specific running instead of trying to read and learn about everything.
Long reply: (see inside)”
@jaybot:
“Analysis paralysis.
If you’re that experienced, you’ll be sorta successful no matter what you pick first. So just choose randomly.
You’ll get more feedback in a follow along on push/pops/native/FB if you start running some actual camps and have a FA for people to give advice on.
In order of actual feedback amount and frequency:
You’ll get much more feedback on push (twinaxe, Erik, and half the forum)
Then pops (twinaxe, diplomat, vortex, and the other half of the forum)
Then Native (jack_i and thedudeabides are great!).
Then FB”

“Anyone tried or doing coin farming”
An STM member asks: “There's a lot of buzz around it, gives 300-600% annual returns. Anyone tried it or doing it ?”
The general consensus is to stay away form coin farming (yield farming).
Moderator @erikgyepes has already attempted this and lost 6 figures doing it.

[Follow-Along] Pushing it to the limit with (S)cience (P)ropaganda (A)ggression (M)agnitude
Member @fastaj launches an interesting follow along aimed at learning about push notifications as a traffic source.
Already profitable, his thread gained traction last week.
Here are his ‘core tenets’ or in other words strategy or approach:
Test, test, test - launching minimum 1 test per day whether it be a lp, offer or creative, trying to relentlessly gather as many insights as possible. (Science)
Focus on building online sales/copy-writing skills - to refine and iterate instead of just ripping and running, not reinventing the wheel, but making it go faster. (Propaganda)
Being as aggressive as possible, aiming to get around 10% of campaigns disapproved by traffic sources, avoiding bans of course - no cloaking. (Aggression)
When profitable campaigns appear to scale them as hard and fast as possible profitably. Avoid complacency (Magnitude)
The core tenets so far (short for “SPAM”) seem to be producing $XX/day profits, see below:

College Student Receives Affiliate Wrist-Slapping
This college newbie started things off rather well:
“If you're a College student, or was; how do you maintain/maintained a balance between studying and affiliate marketing?”
A great question.
Here’s another follow-up:
“Wow, that's amazing! How much money did you have when you first started with AM? Would you say that a $300 a month is enough to start AM?”
He then gets the golden goose number when starting AM - about 5,000 Washingtons.
Just about right.
Just about confirmed by every veteran STMer (in this thread).
But then the college newbie took a sudden sharp turn and his bike slipped badly:
“5000 is way too much to start. There’s literally a $1 guide here on the forum.“
Lying on the ground, poor college newbie started getting some serious wrist-slaps.
So is $5,000 too much?
Is it not?
Is it “over the course of your nooblet life”?
Or is there something else entirely at play here.
Ye shall see inside.
But here’s Yours Truly’s take:
This is a classic case of confirmation bias.
Here’s what that means: “the tendency to interpret new evidence as confirmation of one's existing beliefs or theories.”
This distorts evidence-based decision making.
It’s bad.
In a nutshell, college newbie decided $5,000 is bad and that $300 is good and off he went confirming it for himself.
To further stretch out the tangent - go read Ray Dalio’s Principles: Life & Work. Despite this has been written for managing your own company (for the most part), it’s going to let you see how you should evaluate opinions and weigh your own decisions cleverly.

Ditch Wordpress or Listen Closely
“Hey, I've had issues with Bluehost, Hostgator, Siteground (slow speed and downtime issues, etc) for different reasons Recently migrated to WPX because of the recommendations from reputable people, companies like ThriveThemes and Matthew Woodward but WPX has been a nightmare so far - my sites started having downtime, FB pixels not firing, not working properly with unusual errors after they migrated the sites and they just keep refusing to take responsibilities, communications have been sub par.”
The causes?
A shitton of unnecessary plugins and scripts.
The magic?

Lazy Neo’s Newbie Revelations
Lazy Neo spills boundless wisdom for STM nooblets.
Newsflash: affiliate marketing ain’t “easy 5-figure days bro”–style–courses.
What ye need to do is 2 things:
Listen keenly to what The Chosen One chants.
Try to find the hidden financial wisdom and advice deep inside this post.
Here’s a taste of His writings:
“I would like to make a series of posts for beginners that hopefully help to get a better and easier start and that also shall clarify some stuff.
It´s not necessarily about specific offer verticals or traffic types or so.
It shall be a rather general guideline to help to form a good and winning overall mindset and to develop a better understanding about affiliate marketing in general.
Probably one of the biggest motivations to start affiliate marketing is the money that you can earn so this is what this first post is about.
Often rather sooner than later the reality kicks in and people realize that affiliate marketing is no free ride to wealth and fortune.”
This post be long.
I recommend ye read it all at least twice.
Pay attention, and be realistic.
Specifically, here’s an analogy:
“Well, making 5 figures a month sounds fantastic but I recommend to rather make a plan that matches your personal situation.
$10k in Canada is completely different than $10k in Bolivia.
Also make a difference between what you want and what you need.“

Here’s a $50 Bonus and the “In-Page Push Treasure Map” from our affiliate experts. Use wisely, but quickly!
3 quick reasons to work with In-Page Push:
finally enables you to “send” push to iOS and macOS users,

affiliates overlook it, so the auction is not so crazy as in classic Push.
We’ve checked the stats just a couple of days before you got this email, so the insights are burning hot...ouch!
1. Biggest volumes & lowest bids for testing
The best combination of volume and price is now in Brazil (Windows, Android) and Saudi Arabia (Windows, Android). Also, if you put some effort into translating your creatives, you might be surprised with CTR and ROI.
2. Hidden gems for quality conversions
Traffic from Japan (JP) and France (FR) is on steroids now! We’ve just added multiple big websites popular in the regions and most of the big advertisers are still on vacation. Hurry up before the auction is too hot.
3. Scaling success to tier-3
Already got conversions with In-Page, but want more? What to scale: Utility, Expansions, Gambling, Finance, and Dating. Where to scale: India, Mexico, Philippines, Mexico, Indonesia, Vietnam, Turkey, Egypt.
Pro Tip: Anime Games offers are converting like mad these days.

How to Trick Voluum so it Doesn’t Trick You
An STMer asks:
“Let's say my Lander has one offer with four links to said offer. In other words, Banner1, Banner2, Banner3, and Banner4 all go to Offer1.
Is it possible to add more information to the click so that I can tell which banner was responsible for sending that traffic to Offer1?”
Tl;dr how do you find out which banner converted on offer 1.
One way is to setup 4 campaigns for the 4 banners, but ye don’t wanna do that when there are far more elegant ways.
(Something-something 0 meta-refresh and something-something multi-step landers)

🐗Wild Boars Invade Snapchat for Q4 🤑One Trick to Finding Profitable Campaigns
August 26, 2020
🐗Wild Boars Invade Snapchat for Q4
Praised be the corona gods!
The wild boars return with a shiny new follow along.
Invasion target?
A relentless assault on innocent Snapchat.
Mr. @wakeboarder, a.k.a. Tim, a.k.a. Lord of the Boars declares full-on war on Shapchat pre Q4.
Why Snapchat?

[SPONSORED] One Trick to Finding Profitable Campaigns
Ever wonder why so many affiliates never reach consistent profits?
To hit on a winning campaign, you need to test 4 things:
Offers, Ads, Landing Pages, and Traffic Sources.
Test enough combinations and you’ll find winners.
Sounds simple - until you look at the math.
Example: 4 Offers x 10 Ads x 5 Landing Pages = 200 combinations to test
(And this is assuming the traffic is decent.)
The scary thing? Even if you test all 200 combinations, you may not find a winner.
Pro affiliates take a different approach: They do research to narrow things down first.
And many of them rely on one particular data intelligence tool.
Top affiliates use this tool to cherry-pick the most-recent campaigns, that have been receiving lots of traffic over at least a few days…
Which means they have a good chance of being winners.
Then the pros would test, tweak and optimize based on these campaigns.
This way, there are WAY fewer combinations to test, and the success rate is MUCH higher.
The tool is Adplexity, and here’s why it’s the best:

Pretty Pet Insurance?
This is the prettiest affiliate landing page you’ll ever see.
Seriously.
Well crafted, well designed. Great copy.
Doesn’t seem like a ripped 3-question pop lander barely holding together.
