Anybody wanna see some affiliate STATS? Mobile is where it's at... [ lots of pics + tips inside ]

[Jayvis]

We're running payouts here at DG and I was looking over some new affiliates I recently picked up and noticed that my mobile guys are doing insane numbers across the board.

When it comes to GFY, these kinds of stat threads are not typically well received (for whatever reason) but I can assure you these are real and the only reason I'm posting them is to give some motivation and some insight into the benefits of mobile dating.

I got the OK from all affiliates to post these, so enjoy!

First one is AmateurMatch mobile traffic - we gave him a payout bump because he's sending even more this month... He's no where near my biggest affiliate but for a guy just starting out, he's doing very well.

Just for the record, I'd say the majority of my affiliates are hitting around the 1:20 mark (unique to lead) on AM mobile. That's on all traffic types... good and bad lol.





This guy is using the TextNDate API on mainstream traffic (which is why you don't see any uniques on his stats). He's doing media buys but TextNDate is just icing on the cake for him. He's using the API to monetize his existing numbers that he collects. I'm working very closely with him to get him at a consistent 500 leads a day mark... we talk daily on the phone and Skype and we are just about there...

I'd highly recommend to start collecting mobile numbers if you're not already. Many of you are already capturing emails, but if you can find a way to get their #'s on top of that, the skys the limit and it's definitely the future of lead generation (in my opinion).

Say for instance you have a registration based tube site, adding in an optional field on the registration form for cell phone numbers can't hurt you one bit. You might think it's a crazy suggestion and/or could possibly scare people away, but you'd be surprised how many people are willing to opt-in to something like that... and besides, it's totally optional for the user anyhow.





Ok, let's forget about mobile for a second; here's one of my guys doing targeted mail traffic (hence the low uniques but HUGE conversion numbers). I wanted to post this to get you guys on the API bandwagon. If you're not ready to collect mobile numbers yet, the very least you can do is get ther email address! Opt-in mailing is a tough game but well worth your time if you can pull it off.



Ok guys, that's all I'll share for now. I wish I could show you the numbers of my top whales but these will have to do for now.

Haters and whatnot, don't even bother trying to troll this thread... like I said before, I'm only posting these stats to give people some motivation to get off of GFY and work on their business. And whether you choose to promote us or someone else, dating is still on fire, especially the mobile aspects. Doesn't matter if you're a weekend warrior or a full-time affiliate, you can still get a piece of the pie... you just gotta get out there and work for it!

With that said, TGIF! Have a good weekend, GFY!!

PS: I will be at the Xbiz Summer Forum and would absolutely love to sit down and talk with YOU about your dating & webcam traffic!

While I'm there, I'll also be speaking on a dating panel (first one so go easy on me heheh) and needless to say, I am really looking forward to this show.

If you're attending, don't be shy! Drop me a line and let's sit down for a few minutes!

Any numbers on redirects?

Nice stats.

Redirects from general adult traffic? It will probably vary quite a bit but like I said; for the most part my guys are doing around 1:20 unique to free. Depends on the amount of domestic, age demographics, niche (obviously tranny traffic isn't going to convert very well on straight dating) etc

BTW, I had to make an edit on the original post. An affiliate that just started doing our single-opt join program (where the surfers do not have to verify their email to count as a lead) did $XX,XXX last period but he decided last minute he didn't want his stats posted. Oh well, hopefully you still get the idea lol.

Not general, but from many different niches, I basically just redirect all mobile from all my sites to a TopBucks mobile whitelabel at the moment. 45-50% click to the 2nd page.

Hehehe, you're fast, it was only up for a couple of minutes, but yeah... absolutely crazy $$$.

Have you ever considered making your own mobile portal page for your redirects? If I was an affiliate I'd create my own versus sending it directly to a sponsor. Couple of reasons for this... #1) You've got control of the SE of the domain (might not get you much but hey, every little bit counts). #2 You can tweak and play around with where you're sending your visitors by giving them a few different options. Maybe they would prefer a TopBucks site over a dating site, maybe they wouldn't, who knows? But at least with a portal you're presenting them the opportunity for both. #3 - You can capture emails/phone numbers with this method. You don't just send them off on their merry way without getting something from them, ya know?

In short, sometimes sending them directly gets right down to business and works best. Other times, a portal might be the better decision. It's worth playing around with to find out.

[mromro]

Just checked out your affiliate site...It says that all mobile is tracked as revshare, but you say the first affiliate is sending his mobile traffic to you but his stats say lead?

Also..I clicked on the amateur match site and a pop up winow to streamate.com came up? what's up with that?.. I assume the affiliates that sent the traffic don't get credit for that.

[Jayvis]

mromro - it probably just needs to be activated on your account, please send me an email with your username and I'll gladly help you out.

Heading out for dinner here in a minute, I'll have ICQ on throughout the weekend + checking emails actively if anyone needs to reach me. I try to be around as much as possible.

[mromro]

Haven't seen an ICQ or email from you yet, so let me know if you send it.

Had a ton of people contact me on ICQ tonight, thanks for the response. I'm heading out for the night but will be online tomorrow fairly early so keep those messages and emails coming!

How could I forget about my WebcamClub affiliates?? A lot of people forget that we rock cams just as much as dating, so I am always actively trying to get the word out.

Here's one of my guys with general search engine webcam blog traffic and he's pushing the Chat Roulette Landing Page. Note that this page is amazing if you have cam traffic. I'd say most of my webcam guys average 1:9 unique to free with this lander.



He's pushing the $1 per lead plan and his unique to free ratio speaks for itself! My goal is to ramp him up to 200 leads a day; and once we add our IM pop ups I think we'll hit our goal.



Check out some of the features we offer for WebcamClub affiliates on this page here.

please expand on phone numbers, who does the mass txting? how do you get the affiliate link in the txt? legal issues with that?

These are insane ratios... is that for real? Really?

If cell numbers are so valuable you could even set up kiosks with foxy bitches like that one guy use to talk about... get morons to give their number left right and another way

LoL!

That would require a really long, technical response on my part... You're asking a vague question. When it comes to SMS messages, it's just like email marketing, there are a ton of regulations and whatnot that you have to follow when doing so... but in the mainstream world mobile submits have been huge for a long time... things like ringtones, horoscopes, etc and now dating are hot area of marketing. The link Agent488 posted under you goes into good detail on those rules.

It's just like anything else, the affiliates that have the traffic and can follow the rules and target the people interested in being marketed via their cell phones are making bank... simple as that really. And like I said, you see how big mobile porn is now. The next step in that equation is marketing via SMS messages and the like.

Good link for people to read that are new to mobile. Carrier restrictions are a big deal.

I figured someone might question me on whether some of these are real or not... but I really have no reason to risk the great reputation we have by posting fake stats. Just because you read about people going under on GFY 24/7 doesn't mean there aren't a host of other people still making a killing. Like I said, it just takes work and most people give up way before they taste success.

[will76]

contact me when you have some time, ICQ 86364801 I have a couple questions.

It's definitely something you'll want to address... I almost passed on reading the thread when I saw that kind of numbers, and I am sure that a lot of other people may have as well ... Congratulations

[MrMaxwell]

Upon actually paying attention and not just skimming through I see that the ratio is conversions to leads... now it makes sense.. I thought that you were claiming 1:20 to unique visitors and I was still kind of thinking, sure, this ain't 1997

Ha ha HA!!

[Jayvis]

Ah ok, hopefully that clears things up MrMaxwell, sorry if there was any confusion but hopefully I've addressed everything so far?

[Jayvis]

Another bump because I'm getting a ton of great feedback from interested parties.
