    HOW did you quit drinking

    Look into Naltrexone if you can. Not sure what country you're from but depending on where you are you can get a prescription via an online consult with a doctor. It doesn't work for everyone, but I know people it has helped.

    Starting my CPA journey and I want to document it all!

    So I've been reading through threads on how to optimize, while I wait for my PopAds campaign to get approved. I was reading that one strategy is to check the inventory chart at PopAds. My strategy was to check for countries that have: 1. A good amount of volume 2. A relatively low bid 3. A lower...

    Starting my CPA journey and I want to document it all!

    Time for an update, I ran through the ten dollars budget set for this first PropellerAds campaign. Almost 20k views, and not a single conversion. Guide says that's to be expected. Today I will be learning how to set up campaigns through PopAds. Since PopAds takes a long time to approve...

    Shoot, is it? I didn't know that. As far as progress goes, I'm up and running with a campaign on PropellerAds. Their approval process was way faster than PopAds, it's still taking like a whole day for my PopAds campaigns to get approved. Propeller had my campaign running in 5 minutes. I am...

    Hey All, Well, Binom was an easy success. I got the server hosted on DigitalOcean and they had a 2 months free promo. Setting up the server was a piece of cake since it's what I do for work, and I already had a domain name I was paying for so I created a subdomain and connected the Binom server...

As of now, I have my applications approved for: Mobipium Zeydoo PopAds PropellerAds CPABuild I've decided on...

    Hey all, just wanted to update -- I haven't given up. I just got covid! I have managed to avoid it this ENTIRE time, and I finally got it. I'll be back in business hopefully tomorrow. Starting to feel better. Hope you all are doing well, excited to get back to work. Being sick is f***ing boring!

    Yesterday was spent waiting for my $5 worth of traffic on a tweaked PopAds campaign to run out. I learned how to blacklist unprofitable sites. Running a campaign for just one geo is really slow, and blacklisting sites with tons of impressions but zero conversions just slows things down more. I'm...

    Not much to report today, I am still waiting on my next campaign to be approved on PopAds. Does anyone here know if the time to approval gets better as you submit more campaigns/spend more money? I know there's a verified level when you hit like $15k in ad spend -- I'm a little ways away from...

    Thanks Genesis, I know it's really easy to lose money doing this if you don't know what you're doing. I had made the decision to jump in and get my feet wet with a small amount of money that I can afford to lose, because I figured if I just kept reading and learning, I would never know when I...

    Starting my CPA journey and I want to document it all!

    Update for today: Just finished my first campaign. Basic summary: PopAds approved my campaign in the early morning hours and I woke up with it available to start. I ran the campaign using the list of geos recommended by my Mobipium AM, with a budget of $3 for the first round. It really...

    Starting my CPA journey and I want to document it all!

    Thank you all for the advice. I really sincerely appreciate it. I've been doing whatever I can to consume information, YouTube has been a great source, and I think the most helpful so far has been the STM forum (but at a hundred bucks a month, I would hope so). I consider myself a fast learner...

    Nothing to report today, just sticking with the plan to update daily. Still waiting on Mobipium to approve my account.

    Well, @thescrrr was absolutely right, the STM forum has an incredible amount of information and I feel like it's already worth the hundred bucks I paid. So far today, I have began following their newbie "course" on how to make my first conversion. Will update when I achieve that goal!
