pof question

Dear warriors,

I'm quite targeted in my campaigns and ads (eg. 20-30yr male smoker wanted for a date)

When I set low bids, I'm get 0 clicks. But when I set high bids, there are clicks but only a few conversions thus i'm losing money daily. Any help will be appreciated

Thank you

    jase,

    this is an issue everyone has. what you have to do is find that golden set of creatives and ads with high CTRs that will get conversions without having to bid so high. That's why it's important to test your ad/LP combinations to get the highest CR. I spent about two weeks testing before I started profiting.

    hope this helps.

    It sounds like the campaigns aren't working. Maybe it's time to try and test some other ones?

    Can you post your stats.

    You'll need to share some more info if you want some more accurate advice.

    Test Test Test. That's the name of the game. I go for volume over ROI. Wide funnels.

      Thanks for all the help. Greatly appreciated.

      This is the stats of my latest campaign. I've decided to pause all campaigns for now and learn well before starting new ones. That's my best performing ad. I rotated the images but generally all fetched low ctr. Sexy images were not approved.



      I target on:
      Country, Age, Gender, Education, Car, Drinking Habits, Income, Login count, Marital Status, Smoking Habits, Browser type (after collecting data).

      My bids: $0.22 - $0.82

      My Angle: 40-50, Male, golfers

      Offer: forty Singles

      Thanks again

        Why not try Golf Mates for this ad?

    Is that the only creative you have for that campaign? Like others have mentioned, perhaps try testing a few others.

    Good luck either way!

      That is my initial thought as well. You should be testing a few since CTR is everything.

        Hi warriors,

        After tweeting the creatives and bidding ard $0.30, I got my Ctr at 0.90% and get 1 conversion for 3 consecutive days

        Now do I copy my campaign to optimize it, or hit higher ctr?

        Thanks!

    It's a small sample, but according to your own data, your $0.30 bid was your 2nd highest CTR so I think your conclusion is wrong. I'd pick a bid about $0.30 - $0.60 and test a bunch of creatives. See what comes out on top.

    Your CTR is very poor. Test more creatives...I would aim for atleast 0.1xx CTR

      Thanks guys!

      I'll looked into the offer of golf mate, test more creatives, and bid between $0.30 -$0.60. I'll update my progress soon
