Azoogle Ads

[cameron]

I signed up with them and they automatically put me on as a BlueTime beta person offering ony CPM ads. CPM for the free smileys offer that a few of you use is $0.45. I emailed them saying I wanted to run the $0.75 per lead offer, and they told me this:

"You will be payed in CPM, but if the CPA amount you collect exceeds the CPM, the CPM will increase to reflect that."

Is anyone else running their ads this way. I emailed them back for clarification because my understanding of what they said is I'm guaranteed $0.45 CPM even if I generate no leads, but if I do generate leads I will get paid for each one.
I'm hoping that is what they meant, but I'm not sure.

What they're saying is that the CPM will reflect what you would be making if you were running it on a CPA basis. Though it could also be an easy way for them to take a larger cut and pay you less.

[Mike]

Yep that's right I think Andy, or that's what they told me.

[incka]

Can't you do CPA any more? I'm still doing it...

[Mike]

Yea, you can still do it, but not with bluetime.

[cameron]

They didn't even give me an Azoogle Ads account. Only Bluetime, so I guess not. I'll keep trying to get the CPA for a little while because I'm very disappointed being stuck in Bluetime without even applying for it.

[Mike]

i think you can still access azoogle, cant you?

[cameron]

When I try to log in it says my account isn't active. I emailed them about it and they told me to use Bluetime. I might try calling them next week if they just keep saying the same thing in their emails.

[cameron]

I sent them a new email and they let me in the CPA program now. :D
It's weird how they always respond quickly to initial emails sent to the help address, and then after having a back and forth conversation of about 3-4 emails with a rep they seem to stop responding. Oh well. I'm in and I'm happy.

[Mike]

Cameron, their support on AIM (if you have it) is excellent.

How do you promote CPA ads? Do you just place them on your site or do you incentivize?

[Mike]

Just place a banner on my site, people click, and sometimes download :)

[michael_gersitz]

You joined the wrong program. You need to join there CPA side...

[intelliot]

They gave me access to both the CPA and CPM sides (who were you talking to?)

[michael_gersitz]

Then log into the CPA side, click on the offer, then copy and paste the link onto your site...

[intelliot]

of course. who are you talking to?

[michael_gersitz]

I am talking to you.

If you have access to both parts, login and select the AzoogleAds radio button, then find the offer...

[cameron]

I think he was asking what method people use to promote the campaign, not how to actually put the code on the site. That's why he kept asking if people incentivise or not.
