Anyone have issues with the "Landing Page doesn't work." decline message. I have an international offer I am using and I've had the campaign killed 3 times. The campaign has a geo-direct script so it should work for the PoF guys. Any help?
Yeah I have had exactly the same. My campaigns list looks stupid with all the 'cancelled' attempts.
 


OOOHHHHH I gotcha.....

So it's a 'keywords in profile' based search. I gotcha.

And dammit Ben.... you called and I was in the bathroom having an emergency shit.... and a min later I call back and ms.automated voice bish says no one's available :(

I left a voicemail w/ my number just like the nice lady on the phone told me to.

Ahh, email me man, ben@pof.com I'll get back in touch. Emergency > everything, every single time so no regrets.

I've got some suggestions:

- Option to get emailed when ads are approved/disapproved

- Be able to delete campaigns

- Remember whether I was viewing "Thumbnails" or "Details" on the "Manage Creatives" page

- Be able to sort by impressions/clicks/CTR/CPM/etc.

- Have a "Select All/Deselect All" option for ads and campaigns, and let us delete them all with one button click. Not have to click Delete for each one.

- Show "Clicks" on the "Manage Campaigns" page, or let us customize what columns we want to show like Adwords does

- If I change that "Flash graph" on the "Manage Campaigns" tab, have it remember what I last set it to

Forwarded to the appropriate people

Btw, i thought freebie (email/zip submits) weren't allowed? Or do they still sneak in from time to time?

We allow them :)

Direct linking is the cheap-ass way to do things.

Having a proper landing page can boost your profits through the roof even though, at best, you'll get a 50-75% CTR from your page to the offer.

My advice, if you have some money, is to pick a high payout dating offer and build out a "stepping-stone" page where it'll just be a continuous flow from your ad, to your page, to the offer page. Your stepping-stone page should highlight not the features of your offer but the benefits of dating.

  • Finally find the love of your life...
  • No longer wake up alone in the mornings...
  • Have someone to talk to - day in and day out...

Also make sure your ads are creative. Too often all the titles & descriptions people put on are:





First your title ALWAYS needs to ask a question. Even if it doesn't really make sense. I don't care if there are boyfriends, my age, that are needed.

But I do care if the title is something like:



That makes most guys go, "Well yeah, I am 20 years old now. Why do you wonder Mr. Internet guy?"

Next your description needs to create a want or need to visit your page. Most people will see a picture, read the title, and click through. Those that actually read your description are much more likely to do your end goal (because you're telling them what they should expect).

This requires something more than just casual talk like in the example above.

So something like this:



On your landing page fulfill that promise by making up a little B.S that would intrigue a 20 year old. Like...

  • It's been proven that women, 22 and under, are the most sexually active...
  • As you know women, around 20 years of age, are at the peak of their beauty...

By fulfilling the promise, even if they didn't know you made one (by not reading the description), you grow trust.

By talking about the "Bad News" right away, as if you're clearling your conscious, you're subconsciously growing a bond because you're telling him the problem up-front.

But anyway the picture will determine most of your success. That's what really matters. And WF isn't worth getting into that for. ;-)

+++rep! Wow man, you've really outdone yourself with this post. Good man!
 
anyone make profit with POF ?

I have been working with POF several weeks,but still lost money....

It doesn't work... really... go try facebook.
 
I had spend about $50 to try promoting dating offers in pof yet getting 0 lead. Am I the only one? What are the results that you are seeing in pof? Does it worth pursuing? I know I need to keep trying and I would really want to hear what are the real results that you are getting?
 
Not CTR, but conversion tanks ever so often and never recovers until I move to a new offer. I guess saturation hits fast when everyone is promoting the same offer.

I was running a dating offer one week ago converting at 15%, exactly one week later I send 60 clicks and not one lead. Definitely gotta change up the offers
 
You have just answered your question.Split test the images and headlines to find a better performing one.

Wow, this week just keeps getting better! 2 HUGE additions to the partial click logs (Log you get access to after 1000 clicks in a campaign):

1. Intent
2. CONVERSIONS (only shown if you've used the conversion tracking)

So if you've added conversion tracking, you'll essentially now be shown a LOT of information about who clicked.. and out of those that clicked, who converted.

Cheers to a profitable weekend!
