Staying "Under the radar"

So I finally got my hands dirty and started some CPA. I got accepted to a russian CPA company and got about $110 in revenue my first week. I got all my leads using various BH methods and using bit.ly as the referrer.

I then contacted support to see if was going to get paid this week, and to verify my leads. I don't know how this will turn out as all my referrers were from bit.ly

Anyway I got accepted to a US cpa company in the meantime and read up on ways to fakethe referrer.

I then set up a way to fake the referrer so it looks like the traffic is coming from my WH blog. I wrote up a quick email ad and blasted 250 emails out and saw some decent results.

My question is, what else do I need to do to stay off the radar and get PAID? I JUST started and my conversions for my offers are 17-32%, what % should I think about blasting it with traffic?. Can I continue my BH ways as long as the refers are coming from my WH blog? I would like to net ~$300-500 a week from this CPA company and not worry about if i'll be banned or not.

is your email blast a diversion attempt? If the ref is blank I would make sure to have some WH sites up to show as evidence if asked. Sounds like to me your doing it fine

Throw some junk traffic to lower your CTR. Find out what the EPC are for the offers that you run, and cook your stats with junk traffic.

What MikeHustle said.

Water down your EPC's asap to whatever the network and industry norm is. You can use things like Trafficholder.com or just run a single low cost, medium volume PPV keyword to your LP.

Good luck

Thanks for the help all! I am going to try out trafficholder when I have more than $9 on my cc (it takes $10 min).

Any other recommendations? I need to be able to buy small amounts (50-100+) of US clicks to my cpa redirector links.

^^^ still searching for a company like this :bad:

i have no money to waste. does trafficholder work with a cpa redirector link?

Not only do you want to add junk traffic to get a legit looking rate but you also want to add real converting traffic.

If 100% of your stuff is BH and doesn't convert you either need to do really low numbers (couple hundred a month) or get real converting traffic in there too.

What would be considered a low rate? I'm using a BH method right now and I'm making about $8 a day. All my traffic is BH and my ratio is around 4 - 7%. Is this low enough to stay under the radar?

^^^ For most niches I've found the safe zone to be under 8%, but if you're running all BH traffic there really is no safe zone.

update: tried TH and its doin the trick. i can regulate just the way i want and the ui is great. thanks again all

are you using redirects with TH?
