Question.

Say I have 10 campaigns targeting the exact same demographics
and am getting X number of impressions per day.

If I have just one campaign targeting those demographics, will I be
getting X number of impressions too, or lesser?

(Assuming same bid, same frequency cap, same budgets, etc)

I ask, because I am spending approximately the same amount of money
for all my campaigns (same offer, same demo, just testing creatives)

They're all profitable, some more so, some less so.

I am concerned that turning off some creatives will lead to lesser impressions.

Common sense says the number of impressions should remain the same, but
I just wanted to ask if someone might know, as testing it myself requires pausing
of campaigns = losing profits while ads are paused, so I'm trying not to resort
to that.

Your post is not clear because first you're talking about turning off campaigns, and then you're talking about turning off creatives. Which are you talking about?

To me, common sense says that if you turn off some CAMPAIGNS targeted to the same demographic, you'll get less impressions. But if you just turn off some CREATIVES within certain campaigns (assuming you still have all sizes running if doing IAB), you'll get the same number of impressions.
 


creatives have no impact on the campaign getting selected. We select the campaign and than randomly select creatives assuming you haven't done any special targetting at the creative level.
 
What the fucking fuck? It's as if every major corporation in America has come in and bought up all the IAB inventory.

Yeah I'm actually talking about turning off campaigns,
sorry if I wasn't clear.

Let's put it this way.. If I put up 100 campaigns with the exact
same CREATIVES but targeting the same DEMOGRAPHICS, I will
get 100 times the traffic than if I created just one campaign,
assuming that everything else - budget, bid price, etc, all remain
the same?

Okay maybe not 100 times, but definitely more?
 
@Finch yeah I did think about increasing the frequency cap
but I was thinking whether POF "allocates" a certain amount
of impressions to each affiliate, that kind of thing.

But yeah I'll do some tests and see how things turn out.

Will be much more convenient to have 4-5 campaigns instead
of 20-30.

Thanks for the suggestion.
 
I'm having issues scaling a profitable campaign with PofF. It seems that no matter how many campaigns/creatives I create the only thing that gives me an increase in impressions is bid price. I'm worried if I increase the frequency cap it may reduce conversions / saturate the user. Has anyone tried messing around with the frequency cap and observed how it affected conversions?
 
Markus, you should approve ads 24/7 because I'm usually asleep during the day. I'm sure a lot of others are too.
 
Zip code targeting isn't working for me and I can't find a solution after searching this thread and the help guide from the site.

I omit the country and state targets, and go right to zip code when trying to target for zip. If I don't, I get an error message telling me to target country, state or zip (which I assume is normal).

Then I see Geo Targeting grayed out. I can choose from the distance drop down and fill in the zip/postal code field with a zip I want to use. This won't propagate, and "add target" is grayed out. To the right is "NO TARGETING SPECIFIED"

I am trying this using Firefox and Safari for Mac. What's wrong here?

Seems to be an issue with Firefox and Mac, as we discovered.

Not sure if it's been mentioned but being able to target by browser type/operating system or whatever would be nice since I get a ton of traffic from people on mobile devices and some landers don't support them too well.

^ This!

I'm getting a lot of clicks from mobiles too, wasted clicks.
