Thinking Outside The Goddamn Box
Posted on January 31, 2009 by Melvin
So a few days ago I was hanging out with the wickedfire guys on their forum and basically I just asked them every annoying questions you could ever think of.
Anyway I asked them some questions with regards to some dating offers on Copeac on whether they do convert well or what. And fortunately a lot of people give their piece of shiet!
So I promoted an exclusive offer there named “Spicy or Sweet” and well after some days of split testing here’s what I got:
It isn’t really that big of an amount but I felt its awesome. The expenses on Google Adwords aren’t really that big considering dating is a saturated niche. I also used Facebook with it using the free credit I received and although its harder to get your ads approved, it worths it when you start getting it right. So I know you’d ask how did I do it? Well first and foremost I do have a landing page. Most people promoting dating offers do direct linking which definitely adds up to the cost. Another is I targeted long tail keywords and seriously this one is the harder part of it.
The last thing is that I promoted the offer outside US. I don’t know but I feel that if you run an offer in other countries it is easier to convert. Fortunately the offer accepts traffic from New Zealand, Australia, and United Kingdom and upon studying their trends, I knew I can make some bigs with this! Still got to push my ass up!

What surprises me more than then results (which are commendable) is the fact you go a reply out of the WF group! they can be either very helpful or very harsh…depends who answers first! lol
