Using Bing Ads to send targeted traffic to Clickbank hoplinks

I want to use Bing to create targeted keyword Ads and direct them to my Clickbank HopLink. In this case a url shortner should be used as well.

The issue is that Bing does not allow short links or hoplinks, they require a domain URL or you will get this disapproved message:

"The domain in this display URL does not match the landing page URL."

So the questions are:

1. Do I have to buy a domain name and build a pre-sale / landing page for each Affiliate link I want to promote?


OR


2. Would I create my own pages on my domain and set the Bing Ad url to be:

mypersonaldomain.com/affiliate-landing-page-1
mypersonaldomain.com/affiliate-landing-page-2

And use htaccess to automatically redirect to my Clickbank HopLink URL?

This is new territory for me so that is why I am posing the questions and concerns here. Just trying to find the best way to send traffic to my HopLink because in that scenario the affiliate page is already built by the creator.

Thanks!

  • Hey Vegaspro,

    I have been running BingAds with Direct Linking and had no issues ... See if below answers your question ...

    Using Text Ads
    Under Display URL - Use the Actual URL which visitor sees.
    Under Final URL - Use the HopLink you received from CB.

    Using Expanded Ads
    Under Final URL - Use the actual URL which visitor sees.
    Under Tracking Template - Use the HopLink you received from CB.

    If you want to test this before you spend more money ... You can give a try by running your Ads for one time (Set Automated Rules to stop your ads after 1 click) and check if your hoplink is being tracked or not (Make sure you use a Unique Tracking Id to make it simpler.

    • Thank you very much for responding!

      What is the actual URL I am using? In my case I created a short link which is actually the hot link.
