I feel like this needs to be said.

The goal of your solo ad campaign (or any traffic, paid or free, for that matter) should be to get as many leads as possible. You can't accomplish that when you make it hard for the prospect to become a lead.

Use SIMPLE capture pagesDon't ask the prospect for anything other than an emailGive them a reason to enter their email


You are gathering leads, not making sales. Y'all are making this too difficult.

One day I'm going to write an Ebook on how to make money with filtered Udimi clicks and then sell it to the filtered clicks on Udimi.

And just to give you an idea of how horrible Google is...

I am currently trying to improve my Google inbox deliverability as an email marketer myself. So I have created a new email address on my personal domain and I am hosting the email through Google Workspace. It is a brand new email that I am currently running through a warmup service. Even though Google is hosting the email address, they are sending over 46% of the test emails to spam folder in Gmail address boxes. And I haven't even begun to test emails related to internet marketing. So to sum it up... Google sucks, but we have to try our best to reach our prospects. That's the level of commitment it takes to be successful at this business.

To your massive success,

If its been every vendor across the board you can't put that blame on them there are many factors involved if you don't get opens . For one check your domain ? Are you sending a cold domain out there ? What is your email copy like ? What i your sender reputation like ? Lots of things can affect your delivery and response.

All true. And bottom line, open rates suffer when you don't warm the email address (tied to what Glenn says about cold domain). Even when you do, Gmail has the absolute worst delivery to inbox in the industry. Sadly, even though their market share has fallen of recent, they still are the most widely used email client on earth. And because your prospects use Gmail, unless you take great care and maintain a stellar reputation with your domain and sending email address, you will not deliver much more than 50% of your emails to a Gmail inbox. They will either end up in promotions tab, or more often than not, spam.

Another major reason why people don't get good open rates on new subscribers from cold email traffic is because when you get the opt-in instead of introducing yourself first you just send them directly to an offer and then send them an email at the same time via autoresponder and they have no idea who you are. They may have opted into your capture page looking for XYZ but nowhere on that capture page or the thank you page did you attempt to introduce yourself. So then they get an email from "Joe Schmo" most likely delivered to the promotions tab and they either never even see it or they see it and say who is this? They promptly delete it without opening and the rest go to spam.

Using solo ad traffic requires more effort than 90% of the users are putting in and that's why many quit using it and fail.

In my opinion, and based on experience, the best landing page for solo ad traffic regardless of your niche includes the following:

A very simple 1-line headline that offers something of value for FREE that will help your customer solve a major problem. That way, no matter what, you are attracting the right prospect. A form that collects EMAIL ONLY. Ask for the name or other information you would like later. after they have opted in and they know you.No need for fancy backgrounds unless it's a simple photo or video of you adding credibility to the claim of your headline.A Button to submit the form that has a call to action on it.DELIVER on the lead magnet you offered in the landing page. Don't just send them to your sales page first. Give them the free value that you offered and ask nothing in return until later.

LiveGood

Yeah that kind of sideswiped me this morning as I was engaging with the founder ( I have his paper trail).

When I let him know my solo sources.. UDIMI and another one, he claimed there were others who were getting spam complaints from opt ins that came from UDIMI providers.

I'm just trying to do something passively and do not want to engage much with folks. That's what a good

funnel is suppose to be for ..right? I mean they can reach out to me if they want to complain. Yet, isn't that what an opt out link at the bottom of the funnel email is for?

Kinda frustrating for sure.

This is just my opinion (based on personal experience) that whenever a more traditional network marketing niche (like the supplement model) tries to go digital and allows affiliates to use email marketing or other lead sources, even social media, they have jerk reactions to a sudden increase in spam complaints.

People who live and breath email marketing just know that, while unfortunate for so many reasons, spam complaints are part of the business and need to be factored into your marketing plan.

Marketing emails end up in spam or junk folders for many reasons and most have absolutely nothing to do with how the recipient of the email actually interacts with it. And that assumes that the intended recipient ever even received it because it's already flagged or deleted by the "free" email service providers.

Over half of the world's population (about 4 billion) use email. Over half of those email users (1.5 Billion) use Gmail. Spam complaints aren't going away no matter how perfect you follow the rules of internet marketing protocol.

Building a list with solo ad email traffic is still the fastest and most cost-efficient way to build a list of leads. But sales is still the same game regardless of where you get the leads.

Some will, some won't, so what, who's next? Embrace the suck, you're gonna get no's and you're gonna get spam complaints. That's my attitude and that's why I'm good at selling stuff online. LOL

What company?

Ask yourself if it's even plausible that a person would opt-in to your capture page and then visit your offer sales page and be bogus.

This is an excuse that both marketers and product creators use ALL the time because they lack the ability to sell, or they don't understand how to convert cold traffic. It takes TIME and repetition.

Which is why my advice is ALWAYS to never send your opt-ins directly to the offer. Make them engage with you and get to know you first.

It’s out of control. JavaScript off is not a reason to filter. Still no answer from Udimi on this thread.

If a seller has a problem with using the buyer ad copy they can just tell them or reject the order.

Very wise advice! There are STILL too many people using standard "program generated" sales funnels and email swipes. Every product or service has them and yes, believe me if you are using it so is 80% or more of every affiliate in that program. Stand out. Be you. Offer value before you ask for the sale.

Because Udimi uses their own tracker/filter it will reject a link if there are too many redirects.

Hi Mark. Let me see if I can help.

Find Sellers allows you to use filters to find sellers that will fit your needs. You can adjust the filters to bring up what you're looking for. Solo Deals tab shows sellers who have created special deals on their regular pricing.

Solo ads are just the seller sending an email to their list on the buyers behalf to get their subscribers to look at your offer. You provide the link to a landing page where you want the visitors to go and the seller will provide the number of visitors you pay for.

All transactions on this platform are run through Udimi. You can track the visitors with the tracking link provided. The seller does not get paid until the traffic is delivered.

Hope this helps.

Mark, the idea is that you track all your clicks through the entire sales process.

Optimize your funnel to get the highest optin rate and your follow ups to get the most engagement and sales.

Over time you'll be able to tell which sources give you the lowest cost per sale. That's what your ultimate goal is to get the sale, not the initial click.

If you just buy the lowest CPC you can find, and send the visitors directly to a sales page you'll quickly go broke.

Thank you for the reply, I appreciate it! But what do you mean by "build your list" and send follow up..? I just have the affiliate links that I try to sell, its like MMO and I also tried one of the top offers from Clickbank.

Best regards // beginner ;)

Lena, you should have an autoresponder to collect email first before sending to your affiliate offer. That way you can follow up with them indefinitely. Most will not buy the first time they see your offer (in fact the average is 5 times). Your sales conversion will skyrocket when you start building your own list.

Debatable . i find someties its too much info prior to getting to the meat of the sale and sometimes can make customers turn away before hitting the sales page

Certainly it depends on the niche. But I find with most MMO offers above the $7 range, it requires a little more effort. Especially in the last few years.

Sellers can't accept crypto here and it's against Udimi policy to direct customers off site.
