STARTING A SUCCESSFUL PUSH ADS:
4 things you should take care of :
1) choose the reliable Affiliate Network and become friends with your Manager
2) find and test a good offer
3) set up your tracker
4) choose and set up your Ad Network
Let’s start from the very beginning:
Where can I find a good offer?
– There are two options here. You either try to find the offer by yourself or seek help from your Affiliate Network. The 1st option implies you having direct contact with an advertiser. Pick up a reliable spy tool to learn what is trending and what gets more conversions. The second option may take more time as good offers usually go to those people who have good relationships with Affiliate Networks Managers. No big science here. Just show your sheer interest, be nice and don’t be afraid to ask questions. Their job is to help you and make you happy.
After choosing the Network and the offer, go into your RedTrack account, insert the tracking link, choose the Traffic Source and get ready for the start.

OPTIMIZING YOUR PUSH ADS:
What is the biggest mistake affiliates make while launching campaign?
– One of the biggest mistakes affiliates make at the very beginning is expect millions coming into their accounts in 5 minutes after the launch. The harsh truth about all this is that, regardless of your actions, you’ll lose money in almost 100% of cases. The question is how much? To lose less, take care of creatives, targeting settings, blacklists of inefficient traffic sources, and look for some features to help you control traffic and budget losses.
1.Never choose one creative. Test 3-5 creatives per one campaign. If you are not an expert in digital marketing analytics, try A/B tests redirects and Landing Page management features. Just look at the case one of our clients sent us. Adding additional CTA at the bottom of their page increased the performance of the landing page by 18% percent.
WHAT ELSE?
2. Try Emoji and macros with geolocation
3. Learn how people in your chosen GEO consume digital content, their habits, cultural specifics, etc. The more you know, the better.
4. If you work with mobile traffic and hesitating between Android and IoS versions, choose the latest and exclude the old ones. A good rule of thumb is that all-new operation systems tend to work better.
5. To not annoy the audience, start with 1 impression per day. To track it, first set the impression cap value inside RichPush, turn on the Impression tracking option inside your campaign setting in RedTrack, and that’s it!
6. Reduce the error price with Automation Rules.
To make sure you still didn’t do any crucial mistakes in your settings, set up automation rules for your traffic. If your expected results with RichPush are not met, your traffic flow will be automatically stopped. In RichPush case, the Campaign Pause and Creative Pause Rules are available.
