I'm so pissed right now (CPALead + AdWorkMedia)

Hi Guys - I can assure you we are not shaving since that would only hurt our network. It sounds like you are clicking from a VPN, proxy, or a blacklisted IP due to previous abuse. If you can please submit a support ticket to us we can investigate the issue and let you know what the deal is. If there's any issue we can help you correct it right away.

Thanks,
AWM
 
CPAlead ripped me off badly, and then had the nerve to attack me and call me a liar. I got two infractions angrily responding to their dishonesty on here. I would recommend all to stay far away from them. I've had good experiences with Adworkmedia though.

Ok, so I started CPA offers...
After getting in cpalead I was getting clicks but no leads. I thought that was strange since it was highly targeted. I sent to one of my friends an offer which he was interested. He filled in the survey, everything , he even sent me prints. Still no leads even though they show his click!!! What the fuk am I doing wrong or is cpalead a scam?

After that, I registered in adworkmedia.... Same fukking thing!!! Wtf...

lol this is great.

Can someone help me pls?

Zerosum,

You're referencing a survey. It's the same for CPAlead, AdworkMedia and anyone else. No one is ripping you off or shaving.

The reality is, we can all make more than enough money for ourselves without trying to nickel and dime by stealing a lead from you. We've paid out over 100 million thus far and AdWorkMedia does very well for themselves.

Since you're having this experience on a couple of networks, I'll explain (Same on AdworkMedia so I'll save Dennis, Dave and any other network owner some time here).

When you complete a "survey", there's quite a bit that goes into it. It's not just an e-mail submission. Advertisers are the ones that fire the lead off to us. If they don't, then we don't record a lead. The same companies work with CPAlead, AdWorkMedia, AdscendMedia, CPAGrp, AdGate, OgsMobi etc

They look at the information the validate it. Then they check to see if they already have that info in their system. Then they check all of the data submitted when answering the survey questions. If it gets filled out too quickly, that spoils it since they know someone is just burning through trying to complete it and not being honest. If the answers aren't consistent, same thing. There are a lot of checks in place to make sure that its not someone just moving through to get to the end and that its not fraud.

Why do you see the click?

Because that's done at the network level. In this case CPAlead & AdWorkMedia. We see your click so of course we record it. We control that. The lead, however, is sent back from the advertiser.
If an advertiser wasn't doing well, we'd remove them. But we don't look at one person and one click, we look at the network average. If any ad doesn't do well, it naturally gets removed since people won't use it.

I hope that helps you understand. Your next click could very well be a lead. It depends on what the user filling out the survey does and how they fill it out. A lot of visitors, for incentive traffic, try to burn through surveys to get their content. Its normal and its part of incent CPA.

its better to try diff niche. did they arrived at a solution. please update so that others are aware.
 
What CPALead responded with makes complete sense. They do their best to prevent fraud. Some legit leads might not convert but that's just part of the game we play.
 
What CPALead said does make sense, and any intermediate to experienced affiliate would know that this is the case and would try other offers out before complaining. The fact you got your "friend" to fill out the offer means that you cannot fully confirm he did everything right in order to complete it and for it to count as a lead (he may have not even fully completed the survey) so i dont think its a very fair test.

I was told the same (by Dennis and Dave - AWM).

If the advertisers are shaving then they are shaving both, the network and the publishers.

You (aff managers) should do something about that.

I remember having the problem with a NON incent offer that I promoted for 3 months. Everything was fine, I was getting about 10-15% CR until one day my cr dropped to 0%. In couple of hours I sent 200+ clicks to that offer and didn't get a single conversion. That never happened to me before. Next day everything went normal again.

OFF TOPIC: Do you have any PPS offers? When I google some offers I'm interested in I see CPALead got those offers but when I login to my account all offers I see are incentive email submits, pin submits and similar...

I think that silly talk ,shaving is stupid,
if they dont get paid you dont get paid so that it.

so if any company shaving then there bitting
there own hands off...

i think the truth is to many ppl are using stupid
Public proxies that are ban on there browsers...

why does any company need to shave just prophetic
It just users setting ip to the browsers that are dead from spamming and i no hma are
all dead ip address and hma is most used from nobs....

infact most vpn ip address are ban and effects all affiliates and internet marketers.

It about time that all vpn should cross match all there ip and stop using ip that are known for ban and fuck them off then whole problam will be solved...

Hi Shtrudia,

Thanks and yes, we do have non-incentive PPS offers. We have two sides to the network, incentive and non-incentive. I'll send you a PM, we can set you up for non-incentive and get you access. The non incent side leans heavily on requests, so if you let us know what you need, we can get it for you.

Cheers,
Peter
