Converting landing page: main features

If your pre-landing worked and successfully got the user curious about the offer, your
job now is to “put the squeeze” on them while their interest is piqued and secure the
coveted conversion. And this is when a properly-designed landing page comes in.

A regular converting funnel for sweepstakes: Creative → Pre-landing → Landing
→ Offer.

The landing is the last step that determines whether the user will leave their data and
whether you will make a profit.

Interactive and engaging landing pages are the key to successful conversions.

Basic principles of building a landing page:

1. Aiming for a quick sale. The landing is seen by a warmed-up audience familiar with
the product. Its purpose is to seal the deal.

2. One page – one product.

3. A simple, neat, and clear design – a clear structure and catchy images with an
interface adapted for all screens and platforms.

4. A brief (up to 7 words) but catchy title that reflects the benefits and summarizes the
USP.

5. Mobile device optimization

6. Low loading times on all platforms.

7. Emphasize the importance, high value, and benefits of the prizes.

8. GEO adaptation. You can use browser language targeting and several creative
options that lead to landing pages in different languages. For example, using
tests, you can identify the option that converts best and leave it as your main one.
You can also use data linking the client and the product: by place of residence, phone
operator, brand awareness.

Best approaches to sweepstake offers:

• spin to win it – wheels that stop on a segment with a prize the user won;

• gift boxes – the user selects one of the available boxes, which will end up containing
the prize;

• short polls – invite the user to take part in a short poll consisting of just a few
questions;

• email campaign – preferably, make an imitation of a postal company that is popular
in the GEO you’re promoting your offer in;

• using recognizable interface elements or color schemes of other companies to create
a sense of connection between the two websites;

• using attributes specific to your target audience: OS, mobile phone brand, browser,
geolocation.

Test out several landings to find the most profitable one. Play around with
different combinations of landing pages and pre-landings.

Best traffic sources for sweepstake offers

The Sweepstakes vertical converts well via a multitude of traffic sources. But when
choosing one, be sure to strike a balance between the desired and the attainable, lest
you risk going into the red. Also, don't be afraid to play around with different
combinations.

Currently, the most effective sources for sweepstake offers are:

- Push notifications;

- Pops;

- Facebook;

- Email;

- Native ads.

Push notifications are the easiest and most profitable traffic source out there. Push
notifications are text and image notifications the website sends to users subscribed
to them. Suitable for both PC and mobile traffic. More often than not, users willingly
agree to receive Push notifications, which is why the conversion rate of this source is
so high. Push traffic can be purchased via networks or by amassing your own pool
of data, using scripts hidden within the landing. The latter option is always of better
quality, but the overall volume might be smaller. Aggressive promos tend to burn
out quickly. So if you want a long-living campaign, better use more level creatives.

Pop traffic is relatively cheap, easy to obtain and can work well for less aggressive
campaigns. Pops are ads in the form of a pop-up banner that automatically appears
when a page loads. If you try to close it, it opens in a separate browser window.
Popunders are popular, with high conversion rate, and adaptive to both mobile and
desktop devices. Pops bypass banner blindness and require relatively low
investments.

Facebook is a popular and profitable traffic source, mainly due to overseas traffic.
Currently, driving traffic directly from Facebook is not allowed. There are two ways to
promote offers: a chatbot on the page and cloaking. But you run the risk of getting
banned.

Email ads are effective source if you have a pool of users genuinely interested in the
products. The key-thing is to pick out offers that will be relevant to your audience and
properly present them. Amassing a database will take some time. But then you will
have an affordable and easy way to get leads. The best approach here is showing
the product along with a promotion.

Native ads are great at bypassing banner blindness, being located in the most
viewed places on the page, fitting a website's theme. This source offers less
targeting options, but the cost per click is lower than elsewhere.

Traffic sources for sweepstakes: how to drive traffic from Facebook

Facebook is a popular and profitable source of affiliate marketing traffic, mainly
thanks to its vast overseas audience.

Options for working with Facebook:

1. Promoting your own page/group/community. A time-consuming endeavor, but you
end up with a loyal audience, a high conversion rate and optimal attraction price.

2. Working with bloggers or admins of existing groups/pages. Expensive, but a
high-quality and fast way to attract traffic.

3. Official targeted ads using Facebook Ads. A quality and optimal solution for
attracting target traffic.

To start driving traffic on Facebook, you need to:

1. Select an offer.
   
   
2. Identify your TA.
   
   
3. Create, farm and warm up some accounts.
   
   
4. Prepare creatives and landings
   
   
5. Set up cloaking.
   
   
6. Launch your campaign.
   
   
7. Optimize it.

Currently, direct traffic rut on Facebook is not allowed. There are two ways to
promote sweepstake offers: chatbots and cloaking.

Cloaking – a traffic distribution method where different user categories see
various landing pages: mods see a white-hat landing; and the TA sees the actual
offer.

Another cloaking component is a tracker or a cloaking service’s JS script.

Tracker – a tool for tracking platforms, creatives, landings, and pre-landings,
leading to conversions. They also hide unwanted content, filter out bots to
optimize your campaigns and build complex automatic funnels.

After all the preparations are in place, we move on to Adsmanager:

- if the objective is to secure website conversions, you will need to copy and
install the pixel into the landing’s code, which Facebook uses to get info about
conversions and optimize campaigns;

- ad set setup – you select your TA, daily budget, targeting settings and other
ad-related parameters;

- creating ads – uploading the creatives you’ve prepared and sending them
through moderation.

The optimal option is to conduct survey contests, when users find themself
on a pre-landing with questions leading to a page with the actual sweepstake
offer.

Facebook reacts to not only specific trigger actions, but lots of other variables, too.
Thanks to its AI algorithms. It means that what worked for one affiliate may not
work for another. And they end up getting banned. It means that everyone should
individualize their general approach to working with Facebook.

powers.

Tier-1 countries: USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Western Europe,

Traffic sources for sweepstakes: pop-traffic

Pop-traffic – windows that pop up autonomously on top of an open window or under
it. Pop-up ads, in other words.

It is one of the most-used tools for affiliate marketers that provide high conversions
and ROI when promoting sweepstake offers.

Types of pop-traffic:

• Popup – a new tab appears on top of the page that the user is on;
  
  
• Popunder – a new tab that opens under the original page after the ad is closed;
  
  
• Clickunder – the user is navigated to the landing page once he clicks anywhere
  on the screen. A net is superimposed onto the main window, which is invisible
  for the user. However, once they click on it, the script redirects the user to a
  new tab with ads.

Main recommendations

1. The landing page plays the main role in the successful conversion of pop-traffic.

2. Select a landing page with short clear text and a large font size.

3. Use a clear call-to-action on the page, with bright and vivid images.

4. Convince the user that they need to use the offer immidiately.

5. Create a landing that will load very quickly.

6. Conduct a detailed analysis of the TA before launching the ad campaign.

7. Prepare a minimum of 3-4 creatives. Make use of A/B testing.

8. Don’t try to cut expenses on the domain.

9. Focus on the rate of return of ad platforms.

10. Separate desktop and mobile ad campaigns.

11. Another essential condition is professionally configured black-white lists.

Pros of pop-traffic:

- a pretty straightforward format, easy creatives;

- almost 100% clickability rate;

- cheap clicks, minimal entry threshold;

- lots of traffic, broad audience reach;

- well-suited for entertainment websites;

- ads are automatically adapted to the device;

- flexible targeting settings.

Cons of pop-traffic:

- users find it annoying;

- bot-traffic present;

- the risk of getting non-target traffic if targeting isn’t configured well;

- ad campaigns aren’t stable - CPC changes all the time;

- high competition.

If your landing page is great and targeting is configured wisely, pop-traffic provides
a good engagement while keeping the ad costs relatively low. This is why it is so
popular in the sweepstake vertical.

Traffic sources: Native ads

Native ads are marketing communications adapted to support the media source they
are on.

This type of advertising allows one to attract traffic due to organically placed creatives
that evoke trust.

It is appealing due to the content does not have straightforward selling approach.
There is no call to purchase anything rather features useful information about a
product and the potential of a brand. These types of ads resonate with the content
of the platform it is placed on.

The main purpose is to evoke a certain understanding of a user that the advertised
product or brand will satisfy his needs.

Native ads perfectly overcome “banner blindness." They get placed in the most
noticeable parts of a web page, and don’t exceed the resource’s limits. Less targeting
options are compensated by cheaper clicks.

When working with native ads, it is important to select an appropriate format
and means of advertising. That said, you can launch it on any platform. An
article, banner, photo, video, infographics or a post on social media – the chosen
format is determined by the company’s scope of activity and goals. Competition is
also an important factor to consider.

Basic recommendations

1. Choose a platform where the target audience is maximally similar to yours.

2. Adapt the type and presentation of native ads to the selected communication
method.

3. Mentioning the product or brand shouldn’t negatively affect users' engagement
with content. The emphasis is on the benefit or entertainment rather than the
product description.

4. Integrate native ads into your marketing funnel.

Native ads are divided into 3 main types:

1. In Feed / In Content – native ad blocks are placed in the news feed among the
usual content of the platform.

2. Content Recommendation Ads – placing recommendations on the
platform, which lead to other web pages of the website or third-party resources
with a certain tag.

3. Branded / Native Content – placing ads in the same format that uses an ad
platform.

Advantages of native ads:

- isn't blocked by AdBlock extension;

- overcomes banner blindness;

- is not always perceived as advertising;

- has a high trust level;

- large traffic volume.

Disadvantages of native ads:

- needs unique content that is adapted to every platform;

- relatively high cost;

- boring ads decrease loyalty.

Main elements of a converting preland

The pre-landing page is an ordinary page with a run-up history. Its purpose is to make
the user interested in the offer and filter out unconcerned users. Thus, it is an important
part of your ad campaign funnel. It is an in-between page that the user lands on, having
clicked on the advertisement. In affiliate marketing slang, it is referred as “preland.”

A preland is used to increase conversion and the effectiveness of the landing
page:

- increases the user’s interest in the product;

- provides comprehensive information;

- demonstrates results;

- increases motivation to act;

- filters out untargeted traffic;

- allows bypassing ad restrictions on social media.

The main structure of a preland:

Title —> Short description —> Problem —> Solution —> Advantages —>
Result —> Reviews.

Storytelling and polls are good approaches for a preland. Basic approaches
for a preland:

• Disguising as an authoritative source with high-quality content and design;
  
  
• Selecting a topic to work your way up to carefully present the ad content;
  
  
• An expert’s opinion;
  
  
• A success story;
  
  
• Emphasis on duration and security;
  
  
• Positive reviews from buyers.

Main elements of a converting preland

1. Make sure the user is prepared to do all the necessary actions. To do
   this, you need to consider the interests of the TA and its unique characteristics.
   
   
2. Use a layout that matches the TA’s style. Half the success depends on the title
   and appearance.
   
   
3. Smartly localize prelands and opt for the native language of the country you’re
   working with. There is no need to stick to English in Western countries. It will
   increase trust and conversions.
   
   
4. Try to attain an optimal balance in style between the preland and landing page.
   Conduct tests.
   
   
5. Let the user clearly understand the result he gets after performing the proposed
   actions.
   
   
6. The preland’s content should coincide with that of the landing page. They
   should be somewhat similar. In other words, the preland is a shortened version
   of the main website.
   
   
7. Interactive content increases CTR, user engagement, and trust levels.
   
   
8. Use trigger elements in your creatives.
   
   
9. Social verification: processed reviews, comments from experts, and photos
   from users.

Mobile apps as a traffic source

The major part of traffic worldwide is attributed to mobile devices. The mobile app
market is growing every year and increasing profitability. New niches and products
emerge constantly.

There are around 5 billion active users, of which 70% are Android users and
29% – iOS. App Store expenditure overtakes Google Play by more than 1.5 times.

Use of Mobile apps in affiliate marketing is one of the methods of directing traffic
to offers. It is a tool that helps increase conversion via an interactive preland.

Advantages of affiliate marketing via mobile apps

1. The ability of communicating long-term with the user. Working with mobile
apps guarantees no stress about the user closing the tab with your offer. After
installation, the app is on the smartphone, and its icon on the home screen serves
as a reminder. This way, there is an additional means of communication with the user.
Additionally, you can send push notifications (promos, bonuses, special offers) that
are another reason to return to the application. It is especially relevant in niches
where the LTV (lifetime value) is calculated in the long run.

2. A diversity of traffic sources. Contextual ads, social media promotions
(FB, VK, Instagram, Telegram, TikTok, YouTube, etc.), CPI networks, reviews on
topical websites, SEO in marketplaces, Yandex and Google, UAC, Apple Search
Ads, push notifications InApp (artificial growth via other apps) and more.

3. A more friendly attitude of users. Apps are always actively downloaded, and
it is easier to advertise apps than the offer directly. Applications that are
downloaded from official stores have much more trust than single-page websites.

Drawbacks of affiliate marketing via mobile apps

1. The need to create and acquire apps. There is a risk of getting scammed.

2. Possible bans and a lengthy moderation process in the store.

3. Installing the app is an additional action the user must take before getting to
the landing page.

4. The diversity of formats and approaches to the TA, as well as various methods
of audience analysis.

5. The audience is more picky and won’t stand bad visuals. That’s why it is
essential to design quality creatives.

- Users don’t experience banner blindness and ad fatigue;

- Better traffic conversion;

- Fewer ads in mobile search;

- Testing mobile ads are more expensive than a desktop;

- Smartphones are used momentarily, so the ad text must be shorter, the images
smaller; and an action button is a must;

- Ad networks have an enormous number of bots, and you need special antifraud
systems (like Forensiq, FraudScore)to filter them out;

- Large volume of in-app traffic.

The optimal model for driving traffic through mobile applications:

- Creative;

- Preland;

- Landing;

- Registration;

- Feedback;

- Purchase/Deposit.

It is necessary to configure traffic from mobile apps according to the following
parameters (tokens):

- Device type: smartphone, tablet, etc.

- Device manufacturer.

- Device model.

- Operating system.

- Device GEO.

Conversion can vary significantly for traffic driven through apps with different
operating systems or operators. You need to monitor the statistics for each offer
and disable traffic with parameters that do not yield sales.

You can use cloaks and PWA apps to bypass moderation difficulties and the risk of
bans.

Drive traffic through channels and platforms displayed correctly and without errors
on mobile devices.

You can use any means of promoting mobile apps as long as you abide by the rules
of the ad platform. Pay attention to ads on:

- FB, VK, Instagram, Telegram, TikTok, and YouTube (but be aware of the different
formats, approaches to the TA, and different ways of analyzing the audience);

- Yandex and Google;

- UAC;

- Apple Search Ads;

- Google Ads;

- InApp (promoting an app via other apps).

The higher the number of times an application is installed, the higher it is ranked.

Where to get mobile apps

The foundation of affiliate marketing via mobile apps meets the demand with
minimal investments into marketing and minimizing expenditure on the product as
much as possible by the advertiser.

There are 4 ways of getting mobile apps, depending on the budget and
strategy of the affiliate marketer:

1. Create and circulate your own app. It is relevant if you know code and have
free time. You will also have to go through moderation yourself. Mobile apps for
affiliate marketing are divided into certain types, depending on the capabilities
and development approach. That is why you need to decide from the start what
product you need in the output. Besides classic apps, developing which takes
lots of time and money, you also get:

• PWA – a website turned into an app;
  
  
• Webview – an app that opens a website inside;
  
  
• Native – installed and launched without connection to the browser;
  
  
• Hybrid – a combination of web apps and native apps.

2. Buying apps. You can buy somebody else’s unfinished work. Yet make sure you
scrutinize it to avoid excess expenses to finish development. You will still have to alter
some things, like connect a mobile tracker, configure a preland, and solve other
technical problems. The main difficulty of buying apps is that most sellers expect an
upfront payment but don’t commit on their end.

3. Rent software. This isn’t a bad idea, since besides getting your hands on an
app, it could already be in the AppStore, which saves you from moderation. Avoid
fraud ,though.

4. Use the affiliate network’s software. This is the most optimal option. You can
choose mobile apps suited to any GEO.

Affiliate networks usually work with the following mobile apps: games, utilities, apps
for shopping, taxi and car sharing services, other (the rest, like learning foreign
languages, VPN, access to books, movies, music and much more).

Affiliate marketing uses all these methods together and separately; in order to
increase coverage and income.

You can use Appsflyer statistics to find out what mobile application traffic sources are
popular in countries across the globe. Their report contains many new resources on
generating traffic and is broken down into regions, app types and OS.
