Arbitrage with GDN/RSoc - Let's talk about it!

[TwistedArb]

I've been delving into RSoC for quite some time now, exploring its intricacies across various networks such as Facebook, GDN, and Taboola.

In my experience, RPCs typically outshine AFD, offering better returns. However, the challenge lies in the volatility, which hampers scalability. RPCs can fluctuate drastically, appearing one day and disappearing the next. The key to success appears to lie in identifying RPCs that are not only reasonably high, say above $1, but also exhibit some level of stability. This stability may stem from advertisers who prioritize outcomes over traffic sources, potentially including other arbitrageurs in the field.

I'm keen to learn from others about their successful keywords and verticals. Thus far, I've noticed that business services tend to yield solid RPCs, while RPCs for business software, though initially promising, tend to dissipate rapidly. Additionally, I've observed that certain topics within the AFD realm, such as implants and internet-related subjects, tend to perform well.

Yo,
been running AFD for a while now. Performance since start of 2024 is shit. Everyone says RSOC is doing better than AFD.
Would love to meet up and brainstorm with high volume people. Attached revenue screenshots from Sedo and DA, we also ran Tonic and Ads.com and S1

Cheers

wow,it looks amazing!

On Facebook, i usually start with maximise conversions and then switch target cpa according to epcs and campaign performance.
I'd like to talk about deeper about the kind of topics you are using. I als would like to compare some epcs in us market.

hi there, according to your post, thinking if you are interested in helping google ads booster or facebook ads

Hey.. I was curious about your AFD performance here. I am running afd as well. I would love to discuss your campaign setup if you are would like to talk about it. Stuff like what events you are firing, bidding strategy, dynamic ads or any other? Let me know what you think.

HI Guys, Just curious do you use BH techniques to run search arbitrage ? clocking GDN for AFS feed? any ideas ?

 

[Manetee]

Been running AFD
Seems RSoC is performing great on Mediago and TikTok recently
would love to discuss more

Interesting, Tiktok at scale?

 

[sonyd]

Only for people running garbage, but not everyone else

Hi, I have talk to some feed providers and they are all saying that google is making some big changes in Rsoc and taking the feed from some like Perion.
Any one knows if there is any true to this and if google is making some changes?

doesn't make sense. I know they dont even have the direct google feeds themself. they are focused on bing and yahoo mainly typein

Hey there,
I have a doubt.
What are the L2As dependent on? I am observing a very fluctuating trend on L2As, how to fix this?
Does the channel ID mapping affect the L2As by any chance?

1 Campaign Type
2 Bidding strategies


1.1 What kind of campaign do you use?
1.2 Are there type of campaigns that should be avoided?

2.1 What kind of bidding strategy do you use when launcing new campaigns?
2.2 Do you switch campagin's bidding strategy after gathering some data?


I mainly do Google to Google, or Google To Yahoo, although G2Y has mainly stopped since the March google update where exclusion lists were limited to 125.
I've tried facebook to google feeds, but I'm not as comfortable with the facebook ui, and as such have never been able to get facebook campaigns to perform very well - I can get fantastic CTR 2-10% and reasonable rpcs during the learning phase, but as soon as I set CPA the campaigns stop spending, so I've stopped.
I have also tried some AFD via facebook to afd, but again, stop the campaigns on fb due to above point...
.
Feeds I have;
CBS (google) - have stopped sending traffic to CBS as rpcs have tanked this year.
Rise, Spigot, & Yahoo - stopped re; exclusion method has been stopped by google.
Explorads - facebook to google. Not using, due to poor performance. The explorads google to google also tanked back in decem/jan, so no longer using it.
Just started on Inuvo, but very early days, and performance unknown.
Airfind google - just started the last week, and too early to tell yet.

1.1. For campaign types;
All google display
2.1. Launch via targeting US only, or campaign for some Tier 1 countries (excl. US).
Launch on max conv, with $2.5, or $5. daily budget.
2.2 As soon as campaign spends it's first full daily budget switch to TCPA.

1.2 I've tried some demand gen, but cannot for the life of me get them to start spending, or when they do, the performance (RPCs) have been terrible - have tried a lot of KW categories, but can't seem to find the niche that would work for me to continue.

Anyone one to do a round table discussion group via google meets say bi-monthly like on a tuesday? happy to set-up.

Keen here too! We've been running explorads for a year or 2 now, testing airfind as well, doing yahoo with a couple of other partners. Ups and downs. Buying on Google & Meta.

 

[cheilo]

Glad to have found this thread. Just starting up with GDN -> RSoC. Was curious if anyone would be willing to share/discuss approaches to placement optimization. I feel like I'm trying to drink from a firehose and not getting anywhere. Any pointers on structuring ad groups or approaches that you feel do better at finding converting placements? TIA

Keen to know how the test with airfind goes. They claim to have a good payouts for mobile though while display “legit” traffic comes from desktop.

Have been seeing the same RPC shrank for explorads this year with display to google

have bing traffic?
