I Buy Solo Ads And Why You Should Too

Hi, I am Michael Wong and a recent father. I have been figuring how to make affiliate marketing money 7 years ago. During the process, I have gained some success, learn the process, loss money and failed the business. But I refuse to give up. I stayed on and worked my bud off. I continue to look for better ways to make things happen. I can only say you will learn a lot when you want to build something without resources. In the process I also learn about branding, managing finance and became a better marketer...

buy solo ads - affiliate marketing malaysia

Aside it is the fastest and more targeted way to promote your product and grow your list, why buy solo ads for your affiliate marketing business? Well, it is the personal relationship you build with the solo ad provider that can get you further in your affiliate marketing business.

If you are in the make money online niche and want to grow your business, you might want to visit this solo ad directory  or Warrior Forum

Things You Need To Know When Buy Solo Ads

The first thing to take heed when buy solo ads is to make sure the clicks send to you are unique. This means that the all the clicks you get should be from new visitors. Those return visitors don’t count.

You will also want to check the solo ad provider review (on the offer page or warrior forum) to see whether they are genuinely delivering their promise. You will also need to know that there is no guarantee to the product conversion and there is no money refund to your solo ads. If you doubt the result, you can contact previous buyers directly as they will include their website and you can find their contact from there.

Once you have purchased the ads, do communicate with the solo ad manager for the delivery date because you might experience lower click through sometime of the year such as the few days before and after  Christmas. If you are know which are the dates to avoid, you can ask the ad managers and they are more than happy to help.

Before your ads are being sent out, always request a delivery report from the provider. Many times the list owner will overdeliver the clicks as a token of appreciation for your business and you should be glad about it. So if the clicks work for your campaign, remember to send in your testimonials and this is where the beautiful relationship start to bloom. J

Sometime your affiliated product owner will provide email swipe to make things easy for you. But when come to buy solo ads, do ask the list owner whether you can use your own swipe. Because many list owner will actually do it for you.

To personal preference, it is best to just leave this to the list owner mainly for the reason to make things easier for you and the solo ad provider. Because when you submit your own copy, the list owner will need to review your copy and if the owner deems it is unsuitable to his or her list, your copy will either be rejected or the owner will have to edit it which waste time.

By the way, the list members are already familiar with the list owner tone of communication. Why do you want to disturb that? Just leverage on the facility provided and sits back for the clicks to arrive.

Lastly, do keep a list of the solo ads provider who sends you good traffic, price packages, exclusive discounts and other remarks. This is because details like price packages might change over time and you are supposed to stay up to date with the details.

Now’s Your Turn

    Awesome points you touch on. I am not buying solo ads yet but I plan on doing so in the near future. I will definitely be taking your words of wisdom to heart and keeping it fresh on mind. I have, on the other hand, been getting good results from other conventional free traffic methods. I look forward to reading more from you. Thank you and god speed.

    Hi Michael,
    It makes sense, I have studied business management and such ads help you in two ways, it gives you visitors and secondly a quality-graphic ad build up your identity and make people to remember your website or blog.

    I like solo ads, especially with websites that offer and accept relatable ads because they usually make the ads complement with their web design and content so beautifully that it’s almost like it’s not ads but simply a link to another page with same interests… except, it happens to be a different website and that’s no big deal.

    Solo ads are really a power tool, but price in most cases is killing it. Before you invest, better check in multiple sources if it’s worth the money. I have seen on the Warrior forum many cases where people was very angry because they didn’t get the expected results.

    Hi Michael,

    Congrats on your new baby.

    I have not yet used solo ads, but I have been considering them. You post is very timely for them.

    Thank you for the tips, I have never considered that the owner would write the ad himself/herself. It make a complete sense with respect to his relationship with his list.

    Have a great day,

    Dita

    Hi, I always have the notion that the FREE Credit Mailer is some form of Solo Ads and if it is, then I do not find it effective at all!

    Might have to really read up about it so that I know the differences if there is any.

    I send close to 50 Ads Daily for my Campaign and received less than 1% clicks. sad right?

    Cheers and thanks again for the Tips!

      Hi William,

      I will have to assume that the credit mailer you mentioned is some sort like a safe list.

      If it is, to me personally, that is just something to suck your money. I can’t say it for all but that was my personal experience with them.

      I think the recipient are not really into buying your product. They sign up for credit mailer simply to receive your email and to earn credit so that they can make money themselves. It was then it hit me that of course no one was buying or getting into my list.

      They are not there to buy!

      Besides, you mentioned that you are using the FREE service. Through my experience with affiliate marketing, there is nothing FREE.

      If it is label FREE, it is just something to get you in and to sell you something later. I stay away ever since.

      You might want to look into your budget and buy some real solo ads. But be aware that it is still possible to get 0 result even you pay for solo ads.

      You just need to test them out.

      Hi Danielle,

      Solo ads do punch a lot of potential for traffic but I’ll suggest you use direct the traffic to a lead capture page instead of a sales page.

      Because many people might not buy the 1st time the see your offer and if you don’t get them to market to them again, you are wasting your money for the 1 time exposure.

      Hope that helps. :)
