INTRODUCTION

P
ush notification traffic has matde a huge comeback in 2018. In
fact, it’s been recommended by many veterans in the affiliate
marketing industry, in the “What’s Working in Affiliate Marketing
in 2018” report, as one of the hottest and trending traffic types in the
upcoming year.

(Click on the image if you wish to download this free report! By

leaving your email, you’ll also receive this year’s report – which
is already in the works - when it’s ready.)

Push traffic is relatively simple to run, and is far from being saturated, meaning competition is relatively
low still.

Therefore, no matter whether you’re a new affiliate looking to find your first profits, or a veteran affiliate
looking to increase your earnings, push traffic would be a good opportunity to take advantage of – and
the time to start is NOW, while competition is still relatively low.

What is Push
Traffic Exactly?
DO YOU OWN A SMARTPHONE?
Good! Do you ever get notifications on your lock screen, saying you have a missed call, or your
affiliate payout has just arrived at your bank account, or your friend has just replied to your
post on Facebook?

These are ALL push notifications!

Every app is able to send you some kind of notifications - including browsers such as Google
Chrome.

AND WITH BROWSERS IT’S

E S P E C I A L LY I N T E R E S T I N G !

Why?
Because of the fact that EVERY website that has some special code installed, is able to send
you a push notification.

I bet you’ve seen these small popups in the browser address bar that ask you to allow
notifications for the website you were on.

Once you subscribe, website owners would be able to send you push notifications.

It’s kind of similar to an email list, except there is no email.

These notifications work both on MOBILE and DESKTOP.

There are companies/traffic sources that are collecting huge numbers of push
subscribers around the world using this method.

And this is where push traffic comes from!

The majority of the traffic is coming from mobile Android phones and tablets (no iOS traffic yet,
but there is desktop MacOS traffic) and also Desktop.

Who is Erik Gyepes?

E rik must be one of the lowest-profile and most-humble super-affiliates in the industry. He
has solid experience with pop, redirect, adult display and native traffic. He’s still relatively
new to push traffic, but as you will see later in this PDF, has already found success.

In addition to running campaigns, he writes for his blog at ErikGyepes.com, and also helps
answers questions on the STM forum, where he is a forum moderator.

What is the
STM Forum?
S TM is a premier affiliate marketing community, where everyone - affiliates of all experience
levels, affiliate networks representatives, advertisers and traffic providers – gather to
discuss affiliate marketing and learn how to improve their businesses.

We’ve been educating affiliates on how to make money from paid traffic since 2011.

We’re the friendliest online marketing community, filled with experienced individuals who are
willing to help anyone, whether they’re a completely new affiliate or a seasoned expert. Getting
advice from people who are actually making money in Affiliate Marketing is PRICELESS.

The monthly membership fee keeps out negative people, trolls, time-wasters ... and helps us
keep the BS ratio close to ZERO. Combined with strict advertising policies, this creates a very
clean and friendly environment.

Our dedicated team of moderators, who are personally active in affiliate marketing and running
campaigns themselves, are always ready to help anyone that needs help.

Tools You’ll Need to Make
Profits with Push Traffic
OFFERS:
Erik listed Gotzha, Clickdealer, and Adcombo as examples of affiliate networks he requested
offers from.

Types of offers that convert well on Push Traffic are: Sweepstakes, dating, casino, finance,
nutra, and crypto.

TRACKER:
Erik uses Voluum. (Please see the section on bonuses at the end of this PDF, to take advantage
of bonus traffic from Voluum!)

SPY TOOL:
You need to use landing pages (aka presell/bridge pages). Downloading them from a spy
tool instead of building them yourself will save a ton of time. The one Erik uses is Adplexity.
(Signing up using this link will get you $50 off the monthly subscription price!)

PUSH TRAFFIC NETWORK:

You need a place to set up campaigns on, in order to buy Push traffic from. Erik used Zeropark
for this case study.

What follows is a synopsis of Erik’s case study in his own words (with minor
editing by the editor of this PDF). Happy reading!

Erik’s Case Study –
Day 1
I’ve pinged my AMs at various networks (Gotzha, ClickDealer, Adcombo etc.) and asked for top
offers that would be suitable to run on push traffic.

I ended up with a nice list of offers from various verticals and GEO’s.

STARTING IS THE MOST TIME CONSUMING PART

OF THE WHOLE PROCESS AS THERE ARE MANY
STEPS TO DO LIKE:
• Talk to AMs and get list of top offers
• Spy on competition and final landing pages & offers selection
• Landing pages cleaning, customisation, preparation & upload to CDN/VPS (I host landers
on RackSpace CDN)
• Coming up with angles & push ads creatives preparation (ICON, TITLE, DESCRIPTION)
• Campaign creation and launch

All these steps have to be done before I can confidently start a new campaign and I would
highly suggest you to do the same as well.

It should not be about picking a random offer on an affiliate network and running random ads.

Offers
I’ve got many offers to choose from and I really want to test as many as possible, but let’s just
start with a few first!

I’m going to test 3 main verticals for starters: SWEEPSTAKES (iPhone and voucher), CASINO
and FINANCE.

I’ve got 2 sweepstakes offers in 2 tier 1 countries: The first one is the classic win an iPhone Xs
SOI offer and the other is a shopping voucher/coupon SOI offer.

IN THIS CASE STUDY I WILL CALL THESE:

#SWEEPSTAKES-IPHONE-T1
#SWEEPSTAKS-VOUCHER-T1

Then I got 2 casino CPL offers, the first is in a tier 1 country and the second in a
tier 2 country.

IN THE CASE STUDY I WILL CALL THESE:

#CASINO-T1
#CASINO-T2

And last but not least I’ve got 1 finance CPL offer in a tier 2 country

WHICH I WILL CALL:

#FINANCE-T2

Campaign Setup
I went ahead and added all the offers into the Voluum tracker.

Then, I created FLOWS for each geo and vertical.

In Voluum I’m also going to use the Traffic Distribution AI feature.

This should send the traffic to the best lander/offer combinations and save extra time and
make more $$$.

Above is the screenshot for one of the casino flows (I blurred out the geo, lander and
offer names).

I use one simple rule for GEO filtering unwanted countries and I have 2 paths, one for DIRECT
LINK and one for LANDING PAGES.

I heard that direct linking sometimes works better with push, so I wanted to do a split-test.

This is when Traffic Distribution AI will come in handy, as you can see I have enabled
OPTIMIZATION for PATHS and also for LANDERS and OFFERS.

In case direct linking doesn’t convert well, Voluum would automatically start sending more
traffic to landing pages (and vice versa).

Campaign Setup: ZEROPARK

On Zeropark, I’m going to start by split-testing 5 push ads in each campaign.

Zeropark now allows us to upload up to 10 creatives for split-testing per campaign.

Below is a preview of the creatives I’ve uploaded to Zeropark’s for one of my casino campaigns:

I’ve decided to show these, so you can get some inspiration.

As you can see, I use emojis in the ad copies as I heard this should help to raise CTR
.
As for campaign setup, I’m going to start slow with the minimum daily budget which is $20/day
and adjust it depending on performance/traffic flow.

When it comes to targeting I’m going to start with mobile traffic, but I will test both mobile
phones and tablets.

Frequency filter is set to 1/24hours.

As for bidding I’m going to use the Zeropark Volume tool that my AM recommended as it
should be more accurate than the recommended bid on the campaign setup page:

https://zeropark.com/volume/

It’s also a nice way to see in which geos Zeropark has the most volumes available.

Ok Cool,
this would be for the setup, let’s look at some actual numbers now!

Erik’s Case Study - Day 4
#SWEEPSTAKES-IPHONE-T1
Notes: I’ve decided to stop this campaign as it was the worst performing and focus
rather on other ones.
I might come back to it in future, but I need stronger offers and creatives.

#SWEEPSTAKES-VOUCHER-T1
COST $25.75
REVENUE $24 .16
PROFIT -$1.59
ROI -6.17%

Notes: Almost breakeven now, keeping it running slowly though as my focus is on

another campaign

REVENUE $40
PROFIT $ -2 . 8 8
ROI -6.72%

Notes: Another almost breakeven campaign this day.

paign as well.

#CASINO-T2
COST $12.83
REVENUE $ 1 7. 6 0

Looking fast forward, the performance of this campaign goes up and down, but it
can make some tiny profits.
I think it will need better creatives to get some more interesting results.

#FINANCE-T2
COST $282.13
REVENUE $ 4 9 7. 2 0
PROFIT +215.07
ROI + 76 . 2 3 %

Notes: I think everyone was waiting how this turns out once I start scaling it, so
here it is!

As you know my goal was to hit $100/day.

However, it turned out to be a $200+/day campaign!

It was converting so good this day that I was constantly raising up the budget
during the day.

I also got some delayed conversion for the previous day, so the profit for day 3 is
now $63.15.

Here is a motivational screenshot with a daily breakdown:

So yeah, I basically made my point of this follow along just in 4 days and proved to
myself that push ads can make some nice profits!

As everything it needs testing and experimenting.

I think there are many opportunities in push ads these days.

I will keep updating this FA for a while and let you know how it goes.

But What Happened
to Days 2 and 3?
Wondering what Erik did to the campaigns to optimize from negative ROI to $200+ in profits a
day? He covers that in Day 2 and Day 3 of the case study – which you will find in this thread
on the STM Forum. You can also find a preview of the thread by clicking here.

IN THE ORIGINAL STM THREAD, ERIK ALSO REVEALED

JUICY DETAILS OF THIS CAMPAIGN, INCLUDING:
• What his best offer was (name and geo)
• The exact ads he used (including the best-performing ad, and reasons why)
• A description of what his lander looked like (deceptively simple, yet extremely
effective!)

If you’re thinking that we’re keeping all this content out of this PDF just to get you to sign up to
the STM forum – you’re right, but it’s not for the reason you’re probably thinking.

Allow us to explain.

Making good profits with paid traffic will require more than reading just a single case study.
We have members that are making 4-5 figures in profits a day – but to consistently make good
profits, you’ll need solid knowledge coupled with practical experience.

It is true that you can follow the instructions in this PDF to set up some campaigns on Zeropark,
and if you’re lucky you may even start making profits right away – but then your “success”
would depend entirely on luck – and nobody can find luck consistently.

We repeat: In order to make good profits consistently, you will need

solid knowledge coupled with practical experience.

And the more knowledge you have before you even set up your first push traffic campaign, the
less money you’ll burn and the faster you’ll reach profits – and the more likely you’ll be able
to make profits consistently.

And STM can provide that knowledge.

Here’s a screenshot of just a portion of the threads we have in our “Push Traffic” subforum:

As for acquiring practical experience: Unfortunately, nobody can do that for you. Fortunately
though, we’ll be on the forum to answer any questions you may have. You can start a new
thread at any time to ask questions and get answers from experts like Erik.

It would be irresponsible of us to JUST hand you the entire case study and let you believe that
you have all the knowledge required to make consistent profits, and have you stumble all over
the place while burning cash to learn on your own.

And we don’t just have tips on how to run push traffic. We have subforums on all types of paid
and free traffic – from Facebook to Adwords to Pop to SEO and many others. Here are stats
on the number of threads and posts we have on the forum:

We also have tutorials and guides to help you get started. No matter what your experience
level, you will find value on STM.
And as was mentioned near the beginning of this PDF, we offer an unconditional 3-day refund.
So, we would encourage you to sign up at LEAST to read Erik’s push case study in its entirety,
and to check out the rest of our forum. If you like us, stay. If not, ask for a refund.
