I get this all the time. Sometimes they will ban accounts if you are doing this too often (submitting and resubmitting 100+ ads over and over again).

I’d suggest cloaking or sending to a landing page first to get the ads through.

That is exactly what I was proposing.

I got a warning from facebook in my mail box:
…
“The creation of further ads for these prohibited products may result in your account being disabled.”…

Do you know how serious I should take this warning?
I am not even cloaking, but just submitting “Subscription Services� that they don’t but also approve if I am lucky.

I guess people think I’m going to drop the contest completely.

What I meant was extending it until $500 was met >.<.

So yes, someone WILL WIN the prize. It just might take a little longer!

BTW – Up to $139 so far.

I like your blog, but this is a shitty thing to do man. I just got contacted today to get
my account running. I will try to make enough in a week but I do not even know the offers i can run.

Can’t you just extend the deadline if the $500 has not been reached?

I’m sure the holiday didn’t help- I know I wasn’t home on my computer! I suggest checking in with your publisher manager. Most likely it was just a slow day (it happens)- maybe you can try pushing some offers specific to the holiday next time. I know a few affiliates who add some Valentines, Christmas, etc. offers into their rotation and do pretty well. Why not Father’s day too?

For those on a budget, remember, not all your traffic has to have a cost!

I use to make $500+ a day with Craigslist posting (most CPA networks don’t like this, though. I’m sure Tatto Media is the same).

Yahoo Answers, Digg, Stumble, Reddit, Facebook, Myspace, Hi5, basic SEO – These can all give you some traffic to CPA offers within a matter of hours!

I just use PPC because it is fast and easy money, now!

The Tatto Media contest is nice and the Facebook tip was cool. I am a little busy with some other stuff or I would jump on in.

I don’t like the idea of changing the rules either but can understand it. I don’t know if it is illegal but isn’t very fair.

But I’m one of those ones who signed up and still trying to figure out how to earn some money to increase my chances.

I’m also on a pretty tight budget (otherwise I’d just buy a netbook heheh) but trying to figure out ways to get some traffic moving anyway. I personally appreciate your couple post with campaign ideas and doing some research to get some going if I can.

Though with my luck, I’ll blow my budget, lose more money than the prizes are even worth and then just go back into hiding ashamed and broke lol.

Regardless, thanks again for having the contest and helping out with the tips!

If you think I’m doing it for the affiliate referral commission… lets take a look at Tatto’s referral commission scheme.

I get 1% of what each of my referrals get paid.

Right now, my referrals have done about 89 dollars in commissions.

That gives me a whopping $0.89!!!

At $500, I get $5! Wow! I can afford lunch now.

Trust me, I’m not doing this to collect your 1%, I’m doing this to get affiliates active. The affiliate that does the most by June 31st (if we reach $500), will have the most chances to win. Do a little work, and get a little something extra out of it. I’ve posted a couple campaigns that have already proven to be easily profitable from my own marketing experience.

I don’t need the 1%, and I believe I said before I would give the winner the 1% ref. commissions I earned from it, too! Instead of crying about it, why don’t you go out, pick out one of those offers, put it up on Facebook and make the other $411 needed to hit that $500 limit?

This contest was started to help other new affiliates get a small push into advertising online and giving them a kick-ass prize for taking those first few steps.

And if anyone is still to afraid to just dip in, I have a contact page. It’s there for a reason. I can help you with suggestions on your LPs, ads, what offers to run, where to run them.

We’ve still got 1 more week to go, and one affiliate did a majority of that $90 in commission yesterday. If that one keeps it up, and starts pushing more traffic after optimizing the limit should be hit anyways.
