Finance and health verticals are great if you want long-term value — but harder to get approved.

I’ve been testing both exclusive and public offers lately, and the results are pretty mixed. Exclusive offers usually convert better, but public ones are easier to get into and scale faster. Curious what you guys prefer — exclusives for higher quality, or public offers for volume?

Do you guys rotate offers regularly or just stick with one that’s performing? Sometimes I feel like switching too often resets progress, but staying too long can kill ROI when traffic burns out. How do you balance it?

If you're doing US leadgen, AdsNextGen is worth checking out. I scaled debt relief from them — they verify traffic carefully, but the rates and consistency are good

Been testing different sources for lead gen lately — FB, native, search, even a bit of push. Some work great at first but drop off fast once you scale. Curious what’s been working best for you guys lately, and how you keep traffic quality consistent when volume goes up.

Do you guys usually push for cap increases right away or wait until you hit the daily limit a few times first? I’ve been capped out on a few good offers lately, and it’s kind of killing momentum. Curious how everyone handles this.

This is why I only stick with networks that are upfront about compliance, like Adsnextgen. If a network can’t clearly explain why a campaign was paused, that’s already a red flag. Transparency and communication should be basic, not optional.

Lately I’ve seen some affiliates skip custom landers and send traffic straight to the offer page. Do you guys still build your own LPs, or rely on direct linking now? Wondering which performs better these days.

I started small too and felt the same way. What helped me was joining a smaller network like AdsNextGen — they were more responsive compared to the big ones and gave me a clearer idea of what type of offers fit my traffic. You don’t need to overcomplicate things at the start, just test a couple...

Scrubbing is normal to some extent, but if you see >20% scrub and no clear reason, that’s usually a red flag.

I’ve run incent for years and still make money. The trick is being transparent with your network. Some networks like AdsNextGen and a few others are more flexible, as long as you bring volume that meets their KPIs. Don’t write it off completely.

From my experience it’s not really about being new, it’s about how you present your traffic. Once I cleaned up my tracker settings, added a proper prelander, and cut out sketchy GEOs, I finally started getting accepted. There are some mid-tier networks that are way more newbie-friendly if you...

Curious — what EPC do you consider “good” before scaling? I’ve seen networks push offers with $0.50 EPC, others with $2+, but results vary a lot depending on traffic source.

Yeah, verticals like finance/insurance are super picky. From what I’ve seen, networks using tools like Anura or IPQS won’t let borderline traffic slide. Clean traffic basically means no VPNs, good ISP mix, and low bot scores. It’s tough at first, but once you figure it out, approvals get much easier

From my experience, sweeps can still work well if the network has direct advertisers. Otherwise, scrubs can get painful. I usually stick with networks that have a long track record in this vertical.

Do you guys go for higher payout offers even if the conversion rate is unstable, or prefer lower payout ones with steady results? I’m testing both right now and can’t decide which path scales better long term. Would love to hear your take.

Quick question — what’s the fastest way you guys build trust with a new affiliate network? Some AMs seem cautious at first (especially in finance/insurance). Do you usually send them a traffic plan, past stats, or just start small and scale? Curious what’s worked best for you.

Most people lose money at first because they run blind. You need strong pre-landers, cloaking sometimes, and angle testing. Clean traffic alone won’t make it profitable if the funnel isn’t optimized.

I’ve had the same issue. One network gave me early access after seeing my first campaign results — and the AM support was great too.

Lately I’ve been wondering — does having a good relationship with your AM actually improve results, or is it just about picking the right offers? I’ve had AMs who barely reply, and others who constantly send tips and feedback. The difference in performance was huge. What’s your experience?
