Propellerads – $300 per day with viral traffic

Several months ago I wrote an article on how to make $200 per day with adsense on facebook + websites. If you want to know how to add $300 per day more with Propellerads then this article is for you. When I wrote that article more than a year ago I didn’t expect it to go “viral“. A lot of people contacted me in 2015 to learn more about how everything works or simply because they’re putting some work and wanted some feedback on the results they’re achieving.

2019 update: This strategy has been evolving and our latest system is to use Facebook Audience Network Ads to monetize our mobile traffic.

With over 1,400 comments it’s one of the top 5 articles on my blog and I know the reason behind it is the “simplicity” of the game.

But as many of you can see, creating a viral website isn’t that easy. In fact, from over 600 comments I have in that article maybe just a couple dozens of them are from people telling me that they started their viral website and made it work. Some of them make $50 per day, and some of them are making more than $500 per day. The rest is just people asking questions or commenting about how good it looks but they don’t have the money to do it, etc.

So first let me explain what this article is going to be about:

  1. I’m going to explain what you need in Facebook to go viral, WITH REAL NUMBERS, not the shitty articles that tell you go viral by creating something people love and that stuff that everybody knows but nobody knows how to put to use.
  2. I’m going to explain what you need in Adsense to make money as it’s not that easy. It’s a math game and all relies in the numbers
  3. I tried different methods and found that you can generate some extra income with pop under ads from networks like Propellerads using your viral website. This will be the final part of the post.
  4. I’m going to show you a few tests I made and the earnings with PropellerAds

That’s it. As always I’m going to try to keep it short, but you know I normally write 2,000 words per article so make sure you grab a cup of coffee before you continue reading.

Facebook Ads and going viral

OK so as mentioned, this is a numbers game and Facebook is the main traffic source to tackle if you want to go viral with clickbait news and stuff. I already mentioned how I do it basically in the former article, however a lot of people email me or comment asking for questions like:

  • Is my CPC too high?
  • Which countries should I target?
  • What do you put in your interests when targeting people?
  • I’m making money but I spend more than I earn with Adsense

Those are the main questions I think I’ve received in the last 6 months and I’m going to answer them all so you can understand the theory behind going viral on Facebook and making money.

This is the first part of the equation and your target here is to get as many visits as possible with a low budget. Remember we are using Facebook ads, so you need to invest money to make money and you’ve got to have some decent budget to test A LOT of campaigns.

What is a Facebook Ads campaign?

In this case, a campaign would be the news/article you’re promoting, but keep in mind the price of the visitors could change a lot if you change your headline and image to something more compelling.

So the first step is to have a blog and start posting some news in the form of viral articles as explained before. That should be clear by now. But how do you make it viral?

Well, as surprising as this might sound, most of your articles won’t go viral. AND THAT’S FINE. It’s something you have to accept because you’re not the best copy writer in the world and you might not be expert at marketing either.

The thing is you need to test a load of campaigns and news until you find the golden ones. Sometimes it takes you 10 articles to find a golden nugget. Sometimes it could take you 30 or 50 until you find one.

Again, don’t worry. It’s normal to fail a lot of campaigns until you find the best one and scale it. Not even the best marketers in the world can make every product or campaign go pro no matter how good they are. However, you need to consider that if you’re going to test a lot of articles and fire campaigns on Facebook Ads, you need a budget.

How much do I need to get started?

Something a lot of my readers told me is why do they need $1,500 per month to get stared?

They just have $100 bucks and they want to know why they won’t make it.

The truth is they COULD make it, but most probably they won’t. Here’s the math behind it.

Let’s say this is your first time doing viral websites and you’ve got a small idea of how everything works. You write 5 articles every single day of the week and every 20 articles on average you find a good one that goes viral.

5 articles per day becomes 35 per week and 150 per month.

You create a campaign on Facebook ads for each article and pump $5 bucks to test it before deciding if it’s good or not.

  • That’s $5 x 150 = $750 USD in just a month.

Now, if you write more articles or if you decide to test with a higher budget or with different images/headlines you’ll need more money, so it could easily become $1k per month or even $2k per month just in tests.

If you have $100 bucks to get started you’ll try a few articles and before the week ends you’ll burn your money without any success and you’ll move to the next shinny thing you find in the warrior forum. But let’s say you get lucky and find a campaign with those $100 and from 10 campaigns you launch 1 of them goes viral.

Now you need money to scale the campaigns and make a lot of money, but you don’t have it and Google Adsense won’t pay you until the end of next month… By the time you receive the payment your campaign will be long dead and the initial momentum you gained will be lost in space.

Now that I’ve explained the basics behind the budget you need to enter this business let’s analyze how your campaigns can go viral by answering the most common questions mentioned above:

  1. Go broad and pick up a country. It doesn’t matter which country it is. Facebook has a ton of traffic from every part of the world so just pick up a country where you know the language and maybe the slang and things that are viral at this moment. You can use Google trends to do some research.
  2. You’re going to write viral articles that appeal broad audiences, so initially you don’t need to worry about the gender or the ages of people you’re targeting on Facebook. Later you can go back and check your Facebook reports to see what’s working better. Initially just gather data.
  3. You don’t need to target specific interests because you’re going broad. Don’t try targeting people who already liked other big viral websites or meme websites because they might have already seen the article you’ve written somewhere else or they are used to those kind of ads in their newsfeed.

Finally, let’s get technical and do the math so you can understand how to make more money than you’re spending.

Facebook Ads by the numbers

I’ll make it simple with an example:

Let’s say you’re running a campaign in France and your average Adsense CPC is worth $0.25.

Initially you start a Facebook campaign (Clicks to website should be your objective) and your average CPC is 0.05 with an average CTR on your banner of 1%.

What do you need to be profitable in this case? Do the math… I’ll wait…

OK so if you earn 25 cents from every click on your Adsense banners and every click from Facebook ads to your website costs 5 cents it means you need at least 1 click in your Adsense banners every 5 visitors just to break even. Right?

So if you need 1 click every 5 visitors it means you need an Adsense CTR of 20%.

Are you going to make money here? I don’t think so… Who gets a CTR of 20% when the average Adsense CTR is usually 1-2%? maybe 5%?

Now let’s image this example:

You’re running the same campaign in France and let’s say your average Adsense CPC is $0.3. You start a Facebook campaign and with a great image and headline you increase the CTR of your Facebook banner to 5%. This results into a CPC of $0.01 which is 5 times lower than it was before.

What kind of CTR would you need in your website to make money? I’ll help you with the math again.

If you get paid 30 cents per each click in your Adsense banners and you’re paying 1 cent per visitor from Facebook, then you need at least 1 click to your Adsense banner every 30 visits to break even. Anything higher than that and you’d be profitable!

1 click every 30 visitors means you need an Adsense CTR of 3.3%. Is that possible to achieve? for sure!

So, in conclusion, what you need to make money with viral traffic is to get your clicks from Facebook as cheap as possible and to increase your Adsense CTR as much as possible to earn more money per visitor. The second question is, how do I do that?

The key behind cheap FB clicks

What you need here is to split test a lot of images and headlines until you find the best ones. If you’re not sure how to tackle this go to your Facebook account and like all the Facebook Fan pages related to viral websites until you understand the style behind them.

I already mentioned that writing a lot of articles and launching campaigns is they key behind this business, but trust me, the same article can perform a lot better just by tweaking the headline and the image. One image could have a mediocre CTR (les than 2% CTR on Facebook Ads) while a good image could have a wonderful CTR (4% and above) and that will lower your CPC costs a lot. That’s simply the key behind Facebook ads and cheap clicks.

Bonus: You can also use retargeting and custom audiences once you start getting traffic in your website to launch campaigns that will perform a lot better (extra ROI) because you know those people already visited your website. Also, don’t forget to check the Facebook Ads report in your ad manager to see which genders and ages are clicking your ad more so you can create ads for them and lower the CPC.

The key behind a great Adsense CTR

You need to split test several themes and positions. Do the math and discover what kind of CTR do you need to be profitable as we did in the examples above and start testing like crazy until you find the best combination. You can split test themes (with WordPress this is quite easy), split test colors, positions of banners, colors of banners, banner sizes and more. Make sure you split test as much as you can until you find the best combination for your traffic.

Here’s a simple test that can increase your CTR by 1-2% just by making a small change:

PropellerAds viral traffic split testing
Split testing between right sidebar and left sidebar can help you increase your CTR

Another good thing is to split test colors and mix them with the design of your website. Have a blue website with blue menu and links? test blue ads and blue links:

PropellerAds viral traffic adsense colors
Google Adsense font and colors

Once you start launching several campaigns and measuring all your statistics you’ll know how everything works and fell more comfortable spending money. You need to get out of your comfort zone and make it work. Otherwise you’ll never make it in this industry.

PropellerAds and viral traffic

Finally, let’s talk about adding some extra ROI to your earnings by using PropellerAds (sign up here).

If this is the first time you’ve heard about PropellerAds, they are one of the largest networks and most of their ads are shown on a popunder (onclick ads, as they call them) format.

What is a popunder ad? Well, you know… the type of ad that pops in another window behind your original website. It looks something like this:

PropellerAds Media PopUnder

Yes, these are the same ads that most people hate and some of then assure pop under and pop up ads are dead but they can’t be more wrong. Pop Ads work wonderfully although I accept they’re very intrusive and sometimes I just hate to see them. But that doesn’t mean they don’t work.

Anyways, the real reason you’re here is because you want to know how to make extra money and see how I earned $300 extra per day, so here it goes.

First thing you need to do is to understand how to install and show Pop under ads from Propeller Ads in your website. I wrote a guide and a small review about them a few months ago, so make sure you check it out and come back when you’re done.

Back in September 2015 I started doing tests with a small viral website without Google Adsense just to see if I could earn any decent money with PropellerAds and my (already big) Facebook Fan pages. Here’s what I quickly achieved:

PropellerAds viral traffic small niche
$30 to $70 per day just from popunder ads and Viral traffic with PropellerAds

As you can see, I quickly noticed PropellerAds had some potential but the first I wanted to try it with a small website and decided to do the test just with my organic traffic from the Fan Pages I had grown in the past with my viral websites.

Some days I made $30 and some days the CPM (cost per thousand visits) was better so I made more than $70 per day with a CPM of $5.

My next step was to test the strategy with my biggest Fan Pages so I could make my $200 per day with Adsense plus whatever I could achieve as an extra with PropellerAds to increase my earnings and overall my ROI on my Facebook campaigns.

Here’s what I achieved back in September:

PropellerAds viral traffic $300 per day
Up to $355 per day just with PropellerAds and viral traffic

As you can see, I was earning pretty much the same with PropellerAds compared to Google Adsense, so I decided to contact my manager at PropellerAds and ask them if there was a problem if I used PropellerAds at the same time with Adsense.

My manager told me there was no problem and Google shouldn’t have problems either, however, they told me to be careful with Facebook because they don’t like pop ads when you’re running traffic through Facebook Ads.

WARNING, YOUR FACEBOOK ADS ACCOUNT COULD BE BANNED

If you don’t follow the steps below closely your FB ads account could be banned. There, I said it. So please read below to see my strategy before trying anything.

So I decided to check out Facebook Ads Terms and Conditions and yes, they don’t allow pop ups or pop unders on the destination of the ads. They don’t have problems with organic traffic (A.K.A. Fan Pages without Ads) though. So what I decided to do in order to use both Google Adsense and PropellerAds was to create an specific page with Adsense banners only for the articles that I promoted via Facebook Ads, and then clone the same article and put both Adsense and PropellerAds and use that specific link to promote it to my Fans without paying for Ads (organic traffic just by posting the links in my Fan Pages).

If you feel uncomfortable with this situation you can use any of the other ad network alternatives listed here. Especially the ones that aren’t focused on pops.

So in conclusion:

  1. While you’re searching for your golden nuggets to go viral using Facebook ads make sure you’re using the URL of your article with Google Adsense banners only
  2. For all of the articles that you promote to your fans organically (no Ads) use the URL where you have both Adsense and PropellerAds

What was the final result?

At the end of September and during October I was making $500 per day overall with my viral websites. Around $150-200 from PropellerAds and $300-350 from Google Adsense. Quite a nice bump in earnings just by adding a second ad network to the equation, isn’t it?

AGAIN, make sure you don’t use the URLs with PropellerAds when promoting via Facebook Ads or your account could be banned. DON’T SAY I DIDN’T WARN YOU!

Anyways, even if you don’t have an Adsense account, you can still make good money with Propeller Ads and viral traffic, the only bummer there would be that all your FB Ads would need to be focused on getting likes to your fan Page instead of website clicks and then you can promote your viral website with PropellerAds organically to your fans.

Since November I have been split testing a lot of PopUnder ad networks and found a few ones that sometimes perform better than PropellerAds. But as always, you need to split test the networks because what works for me could not work for you as there are many factors to count in like country of the visitor, operating systems, devices, etc. One of the best ones I tried was Pop Ads but overall PropellerAds has been more solid for this kind of traffic.

Conclusions

There you have it.

That’s how I added $300 per day with PropellerAds and viral traffic and overall how you can make more than $500 per day just with viral websites.

As always, remember to put this to test and never forget to split test everything until you find the best combination for your website/traffic. Don’t quit if you launch 3 campaigns and fail. That’s pretty common but the ones that persist are the ones who dominate it and make it big.

If you’re a lot into automation I recommend you to use the Ezoic Adsense tool to split test and increase your CTR and earnings. it helped us increase our earnings by more than 70% after a few weeks.

Finally, if you want to read more posts like this where I explain everything with numbers and step by step please don’t forget to share this post and leave a comment below. If you’re already running viral websites, I’d love to hear your feedback and know what’s working for you.

Talk to you later this week!

  1. And how does one get viral traffic from fan pages, honestly it seems Facebook fan pages are dead in 2019

    • Nowadays is all about ads and paid traffic. organic traffic is almost dead unfortunately, so a budget is needed to get started.

  2. You should take a look at BadHits – it’s an invite-only network. You can use this link to create an account: badhits.com

    They don’t care about the quality or source of the traffic. All accounts are automatically approved. The main reason people use them is because they have a no-ban guarantee, they never ban publishers for low-quality traffic.

    Most people just use them to send all the traffic they can’t get any other network to buy.

    Reply

    • It sounds like a sketchy business honestly.
      Networks always work on performance because they need to be profitable for their advertisers. A network that doesn’t cara bout quality and has all accounts approved with a no ban guarantee is most probably being used for back hat purposes or simply will go bust someday without giving any reasons.

    I don’t understand the following statement. Can you please explain this to me.

    “So I decided to check out Facebook Ads Terms and Conditions and yes, they don’t allow pop ups or pop unders on the destination of the ads. They don’t have problems with organic traffic (A.K.A.

    • It means I create 2 articles for each news I’m going to post.
      They all have the same information but one has adsense and one has propeller ads+adsense.

      I link to the one with adsense+propellers in the organic posts of the Fan Page and I link to the page with Adsense only for Facebook Ads.

  6. Hi Servando,

    As someone who has been doing IM for 4 years now and owns high traffic websites, I’d like to share some of my experience and ask a few questions as well.

    To all of you reading this, it is the simplest arbitrage formula Servando describes. I thought that arbitrage was dead, I was told that the arbitrage was dead, but in the summer 2018 I hoped on the train and it worked wonders with 100% ROIs until it died out. I still profited immensely. It is a roller-coaster journey, but definitely worth it if you’re up to increase your capital AND if you have CAPITAL to invest as mentioned in this article.

    A couple of questions Servando:
    -The lowest CPC I could get was 0,02 with CTR of 12-15%. I usually get 12-18% CTR for my FB ads, however CPMs are around $5, thus my usual CPC is 0,04-0,05.
    What are your CPMs? If I’d be able to get lower CPMs with the same CTRs that would be a gold mine.

    -You mention you clone the article and put Adsense and Propeller ads. As far as I am aware Adsense does not allow to publish their ads on duplicate content isn’t it?

    -I bet you follow separate URL channels and their RPMs. Have you found a secret keywords/wording/article length in order to attract more high-paying buyers to specific pages and increase overall page RPMs?

    By the way, I have tested quite some networks and just launched a new mobile version for one of my websites. My RPMs doubled 4x – it is specifically designed for real-time ad placements while scrolling. Hit me up via email if you’d like to chat more. Maybe we could help each other in this journey ;)

    • Hi Tomas.
      Good to hear from you. Arbitrage isn’t dead but every year FB makes it a bit harder. you can still get some awesome ROIs as you mentioned if you hit the jackpot. I’d say for capital you’d need at least a couple grand to learn and test.

      As for your questions:
      – This will depend a lot on the countries your’re promoting. For USA the best we get are 0.01 or 0.02 (similar as you), but in other tier 2 or tier 3 countries we’ve got 0.0002… so it definitely changes a lot but at the same time monetization pays way less for other countries.
      I don’t remember my CPMs as we’re not running viral sites at the moment. Usually I checked on my CPCs mostly. However I remember the CTR which as you said, could be anything between 10% (the minimum we wanted to see) and up to 25%. On average CTR was 15%.

      – Yeah, so the cloned article was similar but not the same. Also they didn’t seem to care as much of duplicated content in the same domain as they care when it’s duplicated (stolen/copied) content from other websites. We did lose an account back in the day for low quality content once.

      – Yeah, we tracked different URLs with tags but the RPMs were not as different as we thought. We tried using different keywords related to the articles based on the Google Ads estimated CPCs but honestly I can’t say we noticed any significant change. It was part of our system but it wasn’t proven to work.

      We’re nor super focused on this strategy lately as we’re growing authority sites in niches and doing other stuff with our traffic instead of just ad networks arbitrage.

      Reply

      • Hi,

        Thank you for an extensive reply.

        I see, FB CPCs for tier 2 are much cheaper indeed.. Maybe I will give this a shot and launch some traffic from these countries.

        In my experience I have noticed a big difference between different page RPMs. As someone told me advertisers tend to buy a specific page and advertise on it, but I highly doubt that is true.

        Regarding the keywords, I am glad you had the same experience, it’s not worth wasting my time on content optimisation then. I have also tried advertising to the States that has highest CPC for my keywords according to Google Ads planner. However, it did not increase my Adsense RPMs. Google has crazy algos.

        One more question: I’d like to paginate my articles with the content on the first page and image gallery on the second – same URL, but /2/ comes at the end. However I am not sure about ads on image gallery page, since there’s gonna be short captions only and not a lot of written content. Have you tried this before? Is it allowed?

        Thank you,
        Tomas

        Reply

        • No problem, Tomas. Glad to help.

          Yeah, tier 2 and tier 3 are way cheaper but also the revenue generated has much lower CPCs and CPMs.

          Advertisers to tend to buy from some lists and blacklist others based on performance. That’s pretty common and also happens with propeller, Adsense, fb audience network and pretty much any reputable network that allows you to work based on performance.
          In fact, for propellers we tend to change the domain every once in a while to improve the results. But if you mean like an specific page of a website then I doubt it as I haven’t seen that available unless you’re using native ads (they have widget IDs for each ad where you can buy traffic).

          As for pagination, a ton of people use it for increasing the age views and decreasing the CTR overall. It works wonders for networks which pay on CPM as well, but for Adsense I only had 2 pages max and both of them had text to avoid thin content problems.

          Reply

          • Hi,

            Awesome. I will try pagination and see how it goes. I’m currently using a service provider with PWA for mobile/tablet version with dynamic Adsense placements, my RPMs tripled as well as pageviews due to a very easy app like website experience. Let me know if you’d like to know and maybe even try them out. I’ll drop you a link.

            To add, is arbitrage legal in general? My adsense manager said it is not and advised me not to do it. Of course there are gray areas, however he did not like this example I send to him: activefeel.com. This one is purely for arbitrage. No added value.

            Thanks,
            Tomas

            • There are many testers. I’ve been using Ezoic with good results as well.

              Arbitrage is a grey area. In theory, all publishers do arbitrage in some way, however the particular thing Google hates is thin content without added value. Especially i the health niche.

              If you have great content and it’s all written by yourself and there’s value to provide they don’t really say much.

    • Your niche is probably the problem in this case.
      Have you tried anything different?
      Also, how are you optimizing your adsense locations and banner sizes?

    • Geos like UK, US, CA, AU have always good RPMs. Also many European countries like NO, DE, FR, etc.
      Propeller actually sends a list with the hottest geos every month or so if yo u have an account with them.

  11. I am interested in whether PropellerAds allows content that is inconsistent with Adsense rules, publishing such content can lead to a ban on Adsense, whether the same applies to PropellerAds? Also, Adsense takes care of invalid traffic and then they ban the account, whether it’s the situation with PropellerAds, can the account be banned?

  12. Propeller Ads at the forefront as an AdSense alternative and provides various options to monetize your website. Try it out for a first-hand experience. One major setback for this service is lack of PayPal payment, but the company is working on providing the option soon. I hope that this PropellerAds reviews will help you make an informed decision on the best ads network that providing the best-earning model, ad unit, payment proof, and earnings report.

    • Your site is not propellerads. You need to apply with your news site/blog for both Adsense and Propeller.
      I mentioned it’s better to let the organic traffic flow to your site with popunders and the paid traffic (straight from ads) only have Adsense.

    • That person who clicked interacted and probably got something form the ads so your performance was great. It’s difficult to get many clicks like that as it will only happen once every few hundreds of visits.

I also re study google adsence policy for DMCA notice as it get me a little worry for adsence banned. Well I am still playing safe for not using any copyright material (on website) but I do use my visitor redirect to my (blogger)blogs which contain some copyright materials. I need your suggestion on this to avoid getting banned.

    How about I post links in text form which will make user copy and paste link to visit the blogs. Is this also against the policy if so I may have to remove them before I get banned.

    Thanking You

    • Why did you get the DMCA notices? Did you completely copied someone else’s post?
      Don’t use copyright material, not even with blogger if you want to keep your account safe.

      Reply

      • No I never used any copyright materials. Before blogger I was a YouTuber and very well know how irritating the copyright issue. I only write things which was viral at that time. Maybe my links was blacklisted by mistake in preventing copyright. I was having a option to counter file the DMCA notices but I dont want any more issue so I leave the topic to owners. And now I am taking care that I do not face one more DMCA.

    • If they use adblock you don’t want then in the first place. Adblockers cover around 10-20% of the population (geek, tech savvy and similar people) and there’s not much you can do about it.
      Ad networks try to baypass it from time to time but there’s always going to be people blocking ads even on Facebook.

  29. Hi i read the 2 posts carefully but i’m still having hard time to figure out one thing i want you to explain it for me please ! so what i understand is that we’re making money here by doing arbitrage driving traffic to our website and making profit with adsense for example if i bump 5 dollar to an article and i am earning 7 dollar from adsense it’s good all i need is to scale and do more testing ..but why are we also growing our fb page using fb like compaigns what’s the point if we’re going to target peopole who don’t alerady like our page .. i mean it dosen’t matter if we have 100 k or 1k in our page likes pepole won’t care they’re just going to click on the post shown in the ad to read the article if they’re intrested… having 100 k or 10 likes in our fb page dosen’t make a diffrence .. am i wrong ? please correct me if so

    • It makes a difference because organic traffic will help you with:

      1. pre testing your posts to see if they’re winners before you spend money on them
      2. Organic traffic will always have higher CPM than paid traffic, specially with FB instant articles
      3. You still build a huge audience that will make you money even if some days you don’t have any campaign winners
      4. Initially it will help you create the best audiences based on engagement and website traffic although down the road you’ll create campaigns with lookalikes of people who are spending more views and time in your site.

  30. Sir servando silva, i know its off the topic but i regularly follow and believe in you that’s because i’m asking i really need your help i making a niche website about home needs. It is like ecommerce store but in the informational way for example:- when someone search on google “home table” he gets the result and no 1 is amazon….But i’m trying to write an article on every product and then promote this informational store!!! Is it possible? Because amazon don’t seo on every single product can i outrank amazon by writing article on the product with complete seo?
    Please reply your reply really really matters to me thank you soo much

    Reply

    • It’s super difficult to outrank Amazon. They have some of the greatest authorities in the online world.
      Instead, you can try ranking something like “top 10 home tables for old houses” or “best home tables for modern apartments”, etc. Ranking the product alone with a bigger article doesn’t make sense as those people many times just want to buy so Google sends them straight to an ecommerce store.

      Reply

    • You just copy that direct link and paste it wherever you want people to direct traffic, like in your social media accounts, etc.
      Honestly, it’s the worst way to make money as the performance is super bad but if you don’t have a website or a way to receive traffic that’s how it is.

      If you don’t have money for the hosting then you definitely not have money for the FB ads. I recommend having at least $2,000 for this strategy, but better if you invest $3000-5000.

      You can buy traffic from propeller as an advertiser as well, but if you plan to do pure arbitrage between a traffic source and another it won’t work because propeller works on performance, so your CPM will be much lower at the end.

    • It depends on your page, your engagement, country, etc. and also in whatever you consider to be successful in this. Some people would consider themselves successful by earning $10 a day and others would consider $100/day a failure.

      As for the rules with propellers, they’re a relaxed network so it’s not as difficult to get accepted as with Adsense or others.

      You can start with $5 per day on each news post and then go from there. If you see the ad is making money or at least breaking even then you know that’s the signal it has potential.

So what is optimization do you have any Idea about it?

    And what do you think will my cpm rate will hike (for the given traffic) if I keep sending this traffic for next 15 to 20 days . Right now my Total CPM is 0.10 before traffic it was 0.09

    • Optimization menas after many days of sending a good amount of traffic they will decide which offers and ads are making more money so they show them to your audience and increase your CPM.
      Initially you enter on a learning stage where the system shows many ads and learns which ones convert better.

      I normally test each network for at least 5 days before deciding if the performance is good or not.

      1. As I mentioned, you can do ads to the adsense only pages and organic traffic to the ones with Propeller+Adsense.
      2. Facebook also hates native ads nowadays. It looks like affiliates pushed it too much and now FB many times doesn’t approve a page with Native Ads unless the content is very good.
      3. They love everything that doesn’t break the rules and terms of service. There’s no niche they love more than the others.

    can i do this? for example, i made a viral content/article in my blog, and then i copy a half of that post as a landing page with a “read more” link, and after that i send traffic from facebook ads to that landing page (with no ads at all), so they can click the “read more” link and after that they will get the full content (with the popunder/insterstitial ads). do you think facebook will banned me if i do this trick? 😀
    there’s no popup/insterstitial ads on the landing page.. 🙂

    Reply

    • If there’s no pop/interstitial in the first step of the funnel (your pre-lander in this case) you’re not breaking any rules, so yes, it would be worth a shot.
      The trick is to make most of those people really click through your second page so you can monetize them.

      Let me know how it goes as I have never tried this just for the sake of sending traffic.

  87. Hi !
    I have launched an ad campaign in Propeller Ads
    CPM = 0.5$ – 10 000 Impression
    Only earned in Adsense just 0.80 $
    Is there a bug?

    Reply

    • Hmmm, if your read correctly this guide covers how to buy traffic from Facebook Ads and monetize as a Publisher with Adsense + Propeller.

      It sounds like you’re buying traffic from Propeller and monetizing with Adsense, which is a totally different thing and it probably won’t work.

      Reply

        • Tier 1 countries are usually the best, but also there are some tier 2 and tier 3 countries that get high CPMs. You can ask your account manager in propeller for the geos that are hot so you run campaigns there.

    Reply

    • It totally depends on the geo of your traffic, devices (mobile vs desktop) and even browsers and niche.
      That defines the performance of your traffic and your ads get a CPM based on that.

  91. do you recommend to buy traffic from native ads to send it to my viral site? have you try buying traffic outside facebook and google?
    because i think facebook traffic is very costly.

    will propellerads allow this type of traffic?

    Reply

    • FB can be super cheap when done well.
      Native traffic works, but it”s quite expensive actually to make it work. Test it and see for yourself.

      Propeller has no problem with Native traffic, as long as it converts, but I bet it will be difficult to make a profit from native traffic monetizing with pops. It might work the other way around.

  92. Hi Servando,

    I want to ask you couple questions, what do we start with a Niche viral website or a Viral website like Viralnova and what do we start with when doing facebook ads, ppe or wc?
    and how do we know if an article is a winner and how can we scale it ?

    Reply

    • Nowadays it’s better to do a niche viral site. The way FB works now it helps to have a niche with engaged people.

      As for the ads, Clicks to Website and PPE are the options you’ll need to test and see which one works better for your posts.
      You know an article is a winner when it makes a profit instead of losing money, and when it gets a super high reach and engagement compared to the rest of your articles.

  94. Will adding propellerads / popunder ads affect my SEO rankings?
    Because my site have over 50 thousands page indexed by google.

    Reply

    • I’ve seen some people mentioning they rankings get hurt when using some kind of ads. Looks like Google is very aggressive towards any other advertisement type outside of Adsense or classical banners.
      Propeller has an article about this here: https://propellerads.com/top-myths-about-pop-under-ads-busted/

      I personally recommended this strategy for social traffic as it has nothing to do with Google, but lots of huge sites with a lot of organic traffic use pop unders from many networks and they don’t get penalized.

    If i use “boosted page” for my post which link to a site that has “popunder ads” in it. Will facebook allow it?

    Because you said facebook.wont allow it if i use “website click” ads. How about “boosted post”. Have you tried this before?

    • No. they won’t allow it either. The pops are for organic traffic and for the rest you can use Adsense or Media net.

      Reply

      • so you create different landing page for facebook organic traffic and the rest?
        do you create a script to detect the traffic based on visitor’s refferer url? so its called “cloaking” then, will it affect SEO? because google doesnt like cloaking trick.

        Reply

        • Yes, i have the same page with only adsense ads for facebook boosted posts and an organic page for the posts that i put organically in the fan pages that are not boosted.
          It’s not cloaking and nobody cares about SEO in this strategy as all the traffic comes from social media, not Google.

          Reply

          • If you have the same page then how do you detect if the visitor comes from “boosted page” or “organic” traffic?

            Reply

            • You can change the URL of one so you have something like:
              1. website.com/article1-organic
              2- website.com/article1-boost

              Send the organic traffic to the first one and the paid traffic to the second and you can check it in your analytics quite easily.

  99. Hola Servando. El otro día respondiste un mensaje mío en el foro de STM, gracias por eso.

    Te pregunto aquí que es más relevante. Haz probado hacer arbitraje comprando tráfico en otras redes aparte de Facebook ads (me han baneado)? Me refiero a fuentes como Zeropark, el mismo Propellerads, etc (de hecho en adplexity vi que el sitio gossip.it publicita en propeller ads)

    La duda es cual sería segura para usar con adense, y en caso de no serla ninguna, que otra combinación de fuente de tráfico + red de publicidad se podría utilizar en combinación para arbitraje con sitios virales.

    Desde ya muchas gracias!

    Reply

    • Hola Javier.
      Arbitraje con Adsense en redes pop no es “segura” ninguna la verdad. Incluso Adsense se ha puesto difícil con Facebook así que mucha gente que ahora hace arbitraje mezcla adsense con anuncios native y el tráfico lo consigue de native o de facebook (nunca de pops que yo sepa).

      They have a plugin, but they put their ads everywhere.

    • It’s a good start, but eventually you’ll want to have that amount of traffic per day to make it worth your time.
      They won’t ban you if you don’t show pops in the link you’re sending traffic to.

    Me puedes ayudar con las siguientes dudas:
    1. Veo que en lugar de utilizar Propeller, usan Native Ads de la red RevContent. (Puede generar mejores ingresos este estilo de Native Ads + Adsense ?? O definitivamente es mejor Propeller con sus Pop under ?
    2. Me puedes aclarar lo siguiente por favor:
    * Adsense paga sólo si el visitante hace clic en el anuncio ?
    * Native Ads o Propeller pagan desde que se imprime (muestra el anuncio) al visitante ?

    Muchas Gracias por tu respuesta amigo!

    • Hola Juan.
      Entiendo. Lo mejor que puede shacer es probarlo por ti mismo. Te puedo decir que Revcontent funciona bastante bien, así que será cuestión de que pruebes con tu tráfico a ver cual te paga mejor. No olvides probar otras alternativas como Outbrain o Taboola.
      Y sobre Adsense, si, solo pagan por clicks, mientras que Native y Propeller pagan por impresiones aunque los CPMs por lo mismo son menores ya que el tráfico es de “menor” calidad.

      Saludos.

      • Muchas gracias Servando por tomarte el tiempo para responderme.
        Parece también que es buena estrategia utilizar articulos de ranking (Algo estilo como “Mira el top 10 de…”) y con boton siguiente.. Ya que cada vez que el visitante da clic en “siguiente”, se imprimen más anuncios. Se estaría llegando más rápido las mil impresiones con menos visitantes ?
        Tu crees que con éste método sea factible llegar a obtener algo como 2 mil usd en un mes ?

        Gracias mi amigo !

        Reply

        • Si, ese es un método que se usa mucho. Ten en cuenta que el performance de las visitas y el número de impresiones por IP también cuentan, así que no solamente por tener 10 impresiones de la misma persona que vió el artículo tus ganancias van a ser 10 veces mayor. Es buena idea probarlo de todos modos.

          • Tienes razón, habrá que probar…
            En cuanto a mi otra pregunta, crees muy dificil poder llegar a generar quizás dos mil usd al mes con este metodo, ya sea con Revcontent, Outbrain ó Taboola con tráfico latino ? Gracias!

    1. Is ur viral website a niche site or a broad-topic site? if it’s a broad-topic site, what category u put for ur site when u sign to adsense or propeller? (as far as i know u should put ur site in one category, cmiiw)
    2. Are u targeting one spesific country or more than one country?
    3. in split testing picture, i saw u put an ad unit within the article, so what if the article has some pictures? wouldn’t it make the layout a bit scrappy?
    4. and i’ve been wondering about featured image for article, would it be a problem if we just grab it from our article source site?

    Thanks a lot before, and keep up the great work Serv! 🙂

    Reply

    • Hi. thanks for being a constant reader!
      1. They were broad sites (try to use another site to get your adsense account approved). I already had my adsense accounts for years before I started working with viral websites.
      2. Only 1 country per campaign unless they have similar audiences/costs/language and you can mix 2-3 in each campaign.
      3. Yes, it looks a bit crappy but the ads still receive clicks. The top earners are the ads above the fold though.
      4. I don’t think that would be a problem, but you can do better than that 🙂

      I would share it but it’s quite a bad idea. Competition is always hard, and when people get to know some sites publicly there are always attacks, people who copy all the content, fan pages, etc.

  117. Hey, love your articles, they’re really informative! I currently run a viral website, however, my earnings are very low. My CPC is always under 0.15 cents and CTR is about 1.5%, although most of the traffic is from USA and UK. Website drives only 1000 on average page views, but I don’t understand why CPC is so low. My questions are 1) Maybe you have any ideas why CPC is low (because I searched LITERALLY all over the internet, had many experiments, but no solution). 2) I hardly can re-write 3 articles (around 500 words). How do you make possible 5 articles a day?

    Reply

    • Hello Simas.
      The CPC depends on several factors like: niche/vertical of the website, traffic sources (organic pays more than social or others), country of visitors, device and OS of visitor, retargeting, etc.
      it’s very difficult to control it and there’s no exact formula of how it is calculated as it goes through a bidding system on Adwords.

      As for 5 articles per day, I just rewrite them or have a VA do it himself.
      It wasn’t a difficult task. I took around 15 minutes every day to do each article so in 90 minutes i had my articles done for the day.

        You can easily drop 500+ dollars on ads with no hint of any results. Yet you can on the other hand make thousands if you work smart, but also be lucky at the same time.

    • As long as they’re quality sites, without stolen content there should be no problem.
      However, it’s always recommended to get your adsense account approved with another site and then use it in other sites as well (including your viral site).

  123. probé esto a escala en una pagina completamente nueva de cosas otakus y frikis. de antemano ya tenia conocimiento de un par de post virales.
    por lo que publique 20 post, aunque solo uno con intención de ser viral. y le metí 2 dolares por día.
    Se han gastado 3 dolares, y ha generado 550 visitas (cpc de $0.007 y a dia de hoy el cpc va en $0.005 y bajando)
    En teoría en adsense serian: 550 visitas * 0.03ctr * 0.3usd = $5.9usd (40% mas de lo invertido.)
    la realidad es que en adsense tengo un ctr de 0.009% y un cpc $0.015usd

    1) creo que la tematica tiene poco cpc y los otakus estan muy acostumbrados a ver anuncios.
    2) intentare con otros dos sitios/tematicas, para ver el cpc antes de gastar 1500 dolares

  126. you says “You create a campaign on Facebook ads for each article and pump $5 bucks to test it before deciding if it’s good or not.
    That’s $5 x 150 = $750 USD in just a month.”

    so i am little confused, you have others $750. so you re-ads the “clicks ads” for your virial post with a lot of money per day, maybe $25 per day and custom target. ok?

    but you kill your oldy $5 ads of the viral post? or allows you to live?

  127. Hi,

    Sorry did not wrote the whole info in the comment above,

    My FB ads are alway being banned. I do not really know what am I doing wrong. Is it the native ads? I have sent a sample of my site. Most of my viewers are mobile viewers so there might be a problem with that and my website?

    If it is not a problem can you see what is the problem. I cannot really get any profit with just adsense. My main income source would be the native ads.

  129. Hola Servando, gran artículo. De hecho, vuelvo sobre él una y otra vez para repasar la estrategia.

    Solo quería asegurarme de que he entendido bien un detalle o bien ya ha cambiado. Es relacionado con las dos versiones de la página/post, una para promocionar y otra para orgánico. En cuanto a Facebook lo tengo claro, ya he sido baneado en su día y he conseguido recuperar una cuenta, pero en los comentarios te han preguntado si tenías en la versión orgánica ambas redes, Adsense y PropellerAds, por el detalle de que a Adsense no le gustan este tipo de redes Pop.

    Las preguntas, ¿tienes ambas redes en tus post/páginas orgánicas? ¿has recibido en algún momento algún aviso o strike por parte de Adsense en ese sentido?

    En mi experiencia he de decir que tengo ambas redes en una web viral con la que experimento, pero el volumen no es regular y solo hay picos puntuales de 5000 visitas diarias, por lo que los números no se acercan ni de lejos a los tuyos, y puede que a Adsense no le importe.

    De todos modos, me gustaría saber más al respecto.

    • La temática depende de tus gustos. Hay miles de temáticas, así que si te sientas a anotar algunas seguro se te ocurren por lo menos 10.
      No hay problema si usas ambos, pero ten en cuenta lo que menciono de las páginas de los anuncios y esas redes. Deben de estar separadas unas de otras para que no te baneen la cuenta de Facebook.

  137. Hi, if you achieved a CPM of $5 with PropellerAds, wouldn’t you use PropellerAds instead of Adsense? CPM of $5 is extremely high. My site has 20k pageviews a day but its CPM is only $0.24 with Adsense. Your CPM sounds too good to be true. Any tips?

    • With Adsense I have had more than $15-20 CPM. Sometimes I had more than $30 so to put it in perspective propeller was good but i used it to add more revenue plus Adsense.

    • There are plugins or themes (if you’re using wordpress) that allow you to insert a code in every page or post instead of just installing it globally.

          For organic traffic is fine but if you’re boosting posts or targeting ads straight to pages with interstitials, pops or other ads they won’t like it.

  141. Hi Servando,

    Thank you for this Wonderful article i just wanted to ask you about the targeting of the ad.

    For example : Dad Takes Last Breath While Holding Newborn Baby

    for this article you choose what, what i have on my mid is : viral pages+married women+ age between 25-35 and the audience this way is like 1million person.

    my general question is , what do you with targeting with viral Articles?

    Thank you

    Reply

    • Viral articles appeal a broad audience, but at the same time because it’s not targeted what you can do (and I use as a strategy is):
      1. Do ads to get likes with broad targeting like the example you mentioned or even broader.
      2. From all those people, some will become your fans and some will ignore it.
      3. Now when you promote your posts, you’ll promote it to the people who liked your page (they already showed interest in viral things and articles)
      4. The more your audience grows, you’ll have more people to target and also target people who visited your website (even if they’re not your fans) by using the Facebook retargeting pixel.
      5. Scale up.

      • Thank you so much for your answer, one more question if i run an ad for my website, what’s the ideal size of the audience so the campaign would work ?

        • For viral websites I’ve seen my typical audiences are over 1 million.
          This could change when using remarketing and of course when you promote to your fan followers only but for like ads you can go very broad and anything above 1 million sounds right.

    • CTR means click through rate, which means the number of clicks you receive per impressions of an ad.
      For example, if you have your ad shown 100 times and you get 10 clicks, then you get a 10% CTR.

  147. Hi Servando, thanks for the great resource. I’m wondering about the writing part of the system. You didn’t mention hiring writers, etc. The dilemma I’m facing for my site is that I don’t only want the content to be viral, I want it to be high quality writing to build a loyal audience as well. I found quality writers meeting my expectations for about $8 for 500 words. Would you consider 5 articles per week a good base?
    Thanks

    Reply

    • Hello.
      $8 for 500 words doesn’t sound too bad. Most viral articles should fit between 200-500 words no problem.

      However, 5 articles per week sounds going slow to me. I’d say 5 articles per day as you want to split test a lot and find your winners fast. You don’t want to take 2-4 weeks just to find a good one because you’re going slow. Something you must understand and accept is the fact that most of your articles won’t go viral, no matter if you pay $8 or $80 per article. So volume is key here and not exactly quality.

  148. Hi great article. I recently bought a news website that uses an rss poster plugin on wordpress to get news from different feeds.

    I wanted to ask if this would be an issue with google adsense if I display adsense ads on the website?

    also if i am to combine both adsense and propeller ads together, where would be ideal placements both in homepage and single pages?

    Thanks

    Reply

    • The ideal placements will vary and it’s up to you to test them until you find the best one for your traffic/geos.
      As for the RSS plugin, I’ve seen it in action a lot of times in the past. It’s always a gray area for Adsense since it will be republishing duplicated content, so that’s why some people use content spinners but I don’t like it.

    • I will publish a new article about this in December as it has become very difficult with Adsense lately.

      Payouts in India are low but so ad prices. There’s no particular views and it all depends on your virality of the articles so it’s kind of hard to give a fixed number for it.

      • hey, I can’t see the comment box for new comments so I’ma piggy back on this thread if that’s alright with you.

        I have been following several viral sites lately because I just started one a few months ago.

        And there’s a trend/strategy going on that I just noticed just recently. There seems to be a network of viral sites and viral facebook pages that are publishing there contents on one Main “website”

        You’ll see what I mean with the samples below (I have to ut spaces in between in case you don’t accept links on comments):

        missmeena . everlastinggalleriesgalore . net
        viralwebs80 . everlastinggalleriesgalore . net
        hgrindthisofficial . everlastinggalleriesgalore . net
        adnankhan5070 . everlastinggalleriesgalore .net

        So basically “EVERLASTINGGALLERIESGALORE . NET” is the main website. Then the subdomains are a network of viral websites hosted in it. I can confirm that these subdomains are owned by different people.

        So, this subdomains would post the articles hosted on everlastinggalleriesgalore on their own social media pages.

        How does EVERLASTINGGALLERIESGALORE . NET making money out of this. There seems to be no form of advertising on their site. And what’s in it for those websites/subdomains that are part of the network?

        Reply

        • Well, there are many networks where you can build a site on a subdomain (mylikes is one for example) and you earn based in the impressions and because they have a lot more traffic by joining forces they can get fixed CPMs or higher rates per 1,000 visits.

          Reply

    i really need your help. I have been working on viral webistes for almost an year but have not been able to reap profits out of it. on my recent viral site viralkahaniyan.com, i am doing stuff similar to what you mentioned on your blog. but despite using 3-4 ad networks such as google adsense, adnow & revcontent, i’ve not been able to bring any profits. though my facebook ads ctr is as good as 20 percent and cost per click comes out to around $0.001 or Rs 0.08 even at this rate i don’t know what is happening. adsense rpm is $0.40-0.45, revcontent is at $0.11 and adnow is at $0.14 rpm. since it’s a hindi viral site and the fact the we promote our content in india, rpms are less.

    can you pls suggest ways how i can get profits out of it.

    Great post, I just wanted to add a mini tutorial that solves the duplicate content, facebook and propeller ads issue.
    I know this post is 6 months old but to those who find this via google search and are still interested in trying this is a solution. (I have stripped down some of the urls since it wont let me post, just add the http://)
    The solution is using Accelerated mobile pages.
    For those who don’t know amp. (www.ampproject.org/) it is a project google has been pushing for mobile serps and user experience. It is essentially a strip down version of your post or page to be served to mobile devices without the additional codes and scripts.
    Here are the two pages if you would like to see them served differently…
    main page: (msaidizi.com/breaking-news-in-kenya/)
    amp page: (msaidizi.com/breaking-news-in-kenya/amp/)
    This amp page solves 2 major problems, first it solves the google duplicate content problem since google does not see the amp page as duplicate content.
    second because the amp page is stripped down it will not work with propellerads tags which solves your facebook ads problem.
    To those that have not implemented amp on your sites, you need to look at it now because it is the future of mobile page rankings for google serps.
    We do not use adsense for our ads so there are no ads on our amp pages but we use this plugin to render the amp pages (wordpress.org/plugins/amp/)
    see here on how to implement adsense on your amp pages
    (wordpress.org/support/topic/google-ads-dont-show-up-on-amp-pages-2?replies=27)
    or you can use this plugin that lets you add adsense code directly without tinkering with the code.
    (wordpress.org/plugins/accelerated-mobile-pages/)
    Anyway good luck and happy money making. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment here and I will answer them best that I can.

It’s growing 100% from postings and then inviting the likes to follow the page using FB’s invite on their likes. My weekly reach now is over 400K weekly from the FB organic only.

  183. Hello, thanks for sharing the tips.

    I have been sending traffic for the past 2 weeks and find out that Propeller shaves traffic heavily. I am sending approximately 20K every day and use three different tracking including GA. While my own stats show discrepancies, it is pretty small, i.e tracking 1: 1000, tracking 2: 900 and tracking 3: 1100. But stats shown on Propeller is shocking. They shave at least half of it. Every time I asked , they always gave me vague answers and blame the tracking script. While that may be the case, surely 50% shaving is just ridiculous. I notice from your reports your daily traffic was 10K+. Was this figure match reasonably with your own tracking stats ( I assume you track your traffic). I am their Direct link now. Cheers.

    Reply

    • They count unique impressions so if somebody clicks 3 times in 12 or 24 hours (don’t remember) it will only count as one if I’m correct.
      That might explain it. I think i normally see a 20-30% discrepancy between unique users and the impressions shown from the ad networks.

  184. Hey again,

    I have tested PopAds and RevenueHits and they have worked best for me for PopUnders.

    Now the main question is, I have 3 spots on my website. Even if I do not put any ads on there, it is still going to take up blank space block because that’s the web layout so I am thinking must as well put something on there.

    What do you think is the best CPM adsense alternative network for Banner ads other than ezoic?
    RevenueHits doesn’t perform well because they are a CPA network. Propellerads don’t seem to be accepting new banner ads since they told me their inventory are filled.

    Sidenote: My daily web traffic is about 5k+.

    Let me tell you that your post really inspired me to take action.
    I have started a viral blog in a huge niche for the Portuguese speaking audience.
    So mainly Brazil and Portugal , i have replicated the ads position from a top viral site getting 3.5% CTR what i think is nice. But yesterday i was starting scalling up post that reached more then 4k likes, 100 shares and 100 comments… Nt badto start i think. But onadsense it was paying only 2 cents CPC do you think its because i only targeted mobile news feeds? Because at 2 cents it may not get profitable 🙁
    Do you think maybe taboola be better in terms of payrate.

      Yes, the CTR is fine. You can try Taboola and Outbrain. In fact, many websites use both Taboola and Adsense at the same time to make more money from their traffic.

  187. Hola Fernando, pude ver que hablas español tambien. Tengo un sitio web con un promedio de 1.000 visitas por dia, la gran mayoria viene de Facebook, donde tengo actualmente mas de 30.000 seguidores con un alcance de 14 millones de personas en la semana. Pasa que hice una pequeña prueba con AdFly en este caso y no me genero ganancia alguna, y ahora que lei tu articulo voy a hacerlo con FacebookAds. Pero lo que queria preguntarte es: Has utilizado alguna vez sistemas como los de AdFly o LinkBucks para anunciar tus sitios web? Al utilizar estos sistemas funcionan los ads de PropellerAds y AdSense?

    De verdad aprecio mucho tu interes por querer ayudar a las personas con tu experiencia y eso lo agradezco muchisimo! Saludos

    • Adfly y linkbucks son de las peores empresas para monetizar webs. Los anuncios no son directamente de ellos, por lo que los pagos son más bajos y tienen menor cobertura. Yo no los usaría.

    • I haven’t heard of anybody making this work in Twitter mostly because the nature of the traffic source doesn’t allow things to go viral as easily as FB and twitter ads are more expensive.

  190. I used my mastercard in my own name. I just heard from them earlier today. They have banned me permanently for no reason. They asked me for ID which I gave them. Also I told them I can send them a picture of my debit card too, to prove I have it with me physically. But even after sending them everything, they simply sent me a cycled response like the first time, virtually accussing me of fraud and have banned me permanently. I am 100% sure I didn’t break any rules, as I only created a campaign to promote my Facebook page only. No website traffic. The page is still there but they have banned my account from any payments and ads.

    It is also worth mentioning here they did the exact same thing my father as well, 2 years ago (banned after creating page like campaign). I’m pretty sure they are simply banning advertisers from my country 🙁

  191. Hello Servando Silva,
    I’m with a cpm site, and my account manager told me that I can buy traffic for pop up ads.
    So can you share me some traffic source to buy traffic for pop ads?

  192. Just one more question. Can you show me some good examples of facebook page like ad campaign? As I don’t know if people will like my page if I just tell whats it about like its just a viral content page and not focusing on any specific topic or something.

    I would really (really!) appreciate if you could give me some ideas about this. Thank you for your time.

      • Oh well. I just launched my first 2 campaigns (same country, one targetting mobile and desktop newsfeed, the other desktop sidebar), and it was approved. I was checking around to create campaigns for other countries and after good 2 hours Facebook sends me they have banned my payment account due to “suspecious activity”. They have asked me to fill a form and send them my government supplied id. I did it asap and hoping to hear back from them.

        These are the perks of being from “not-so-trusted-countries”. Sad but true how different people are treated based on their nationality 🙁

  193. Hello.

    I hope you’re doing good. I’ve been reading about this whole FB ads thing on your site for quite some time now but I am confused. Could you please briefly answer my questions?

    1). Do I promote my Facebook page for likes or do I promote a post on my page?

    2). When promoting a page, do I enter page name in title or what? When the users click the ad, will they be taken to Facebook page or some specific post on my page?

    3). I see that sharing external links gets 10 times less likes, shares etc., on the same page everytime. How does that affect us? As our goal is to get as many clicks to our site as possible.

    Thanks a lot for your time. I just found your blog a few days ago and really love your content.

    Reply

    • Hello Jacko.
      Let me help you with your questions 🙂

      1. You do both. First you need page likes and then when your audience grows to 5-10k likes you start promoting posts to your page.

      2. Have a look at Facebook’s guidelines so you understand what you need to promote a page. They’ll ask you for a link and then a title and a description. They will be taken to your website when you promote your posts, and they will be taken to your Facebook Fan Page when you promote for likes.

      3. Yes, external links always have lower reach and it’s been like that for years. That’s Facebook’s way to keep their visitors inside Facebook, but it doesn’t mean you can’t drive large quantities of traffic out of Facebook too.

      Reply

      • Hello.

        Thank you for your reply. What kind of cost per like can I expect targetting US, Canada, UK, AU, NZ etc.? I mean for the viral niche with decent ctr. Also, how much CPC in the same case when promoting website through Facebook page? Do I use post boost or just share links and get clicks organically?

        Reply

        • That totally depends on your ads and CTR. A decent CTR would be above 4%. Sometimes it can go above 10% too.
          As for the CPC, is changes from country to country.

          You have to pay for both likes and promoted posts. Just sharing posts and getting clicks organically isn’t going to cut it in 2016.

  194. Hi Servando-

    Your information here is awesome! Thanks so much for putting this site together.

    I have a viral strange stories site and Facebook page I’ve been putting together.

    Was getting 4-5 cent likes and 1 cent visitors to site, can optimize more there but good for a start. Some Facebook posts are getting over 10% ctr.

    On the Adsense side getting a 25-30 cpc, but ctr is horrible at 0.5%. It was showing improvement since starting the site and daily page rpm was up to $5, but then around May 26 or so there was a dramatic drop, with daily rpm around $1. I made only very small changes to the site at that point.

    Wondering if there was a change in Google at that time, or I just need to work on my site? I heard Adsense should be optimized once about 5,000 to 7,500 page views have been registered. I’m at that level now.

    Should I just try different themes and ad colors/styles/placements, or do I need a lot more traffic, or is there something else I’m missing?

    Going to add propellerads into the mix. My goal is a total page rpm of $15. is that possible?

    Thanks so much for this site, and any advice,

    Mike

    Reply

    • Hello.
      That RPM is possible but will also depend on your traffic and country, device, etc.

      You already have traffic, what you need to do is test different ad sizes, locations, colors, etc. until you find the best combination.
      Also, I used to change the theme design every 2-3 months to avoid banner blindness and recover my CTR every once in a while.

  195. Hi there…you briefly mention how to target countries but how do you target interests in your FB ads….do you base interests on the topic of the article?

    Also, how do you decide which topics to write about?

    Reply

    • Hello.
      I don’t target interests for viral news.
      Everybody can be interested in viral news, so it’s just a matter of appealing their curiosity and feelings to make them click your ads.

      If it’s for a niche site, then of course, I’ll select interests to make it work.
      I decide how to write the news based on what I see that’s working with other viral news sites. After writing 30-50 articles you’ll understand what works and what gets more traffic for your website and you’ll understand the key behind the images, titles, and the importance of copywriting to get more visitors.

  197. Hi Servando,

    I love this blog and am absorbing and learning so much!

    A few questions for you:

    1. You said that adsense doesn’t like it when you copy/paste articles from other sources, but you also said that we should post one article without propellerads and just google adsense to run fb adverts with and then have a duplicate post with propellerads to post on your page. Does this mean I should have two separate domains, a .com and a duplicate .net both running the exact same articles, just one with propellerads and one without? Will adsense shut me down for having two sites with duplicate articles? Will it make it seem like i’m ripping off another site’s articles even though they’re both my sites?

    2. Since adsense pays so little for mobile traffic, is it possible to have adsense on the desktop version of your site and redo your mobile version with different ad networks that pay more for mobile traffic?

    3. Can you dumb down the idea of ‘retargeting’ for me? I’m a little confused about how to do it 🙂

    4. tattylandz.com/014d5c3c487a35 is a great viral site, when you pull up this link on your phone, there is a big box that says, ‘You might also like:’ with a list of three articles people can click on, it is a paid distribution and I was wondering if you knew which ad network that is from. I see it used by a lot of viral sites and am thinking it may be valuable if so many people are using it.

    Reply

    • Hello Smai.

      1. It can be 2 domains or the same domain with different URLs for each one. You can make a few changes on each article if you want to play it safe.

      2. Well, if you install a plugin that auto redirects to a mobile version of your website you could do it, but who told you Adsense pays so little for mobile traffic? it’s not true.

      3. Retargeting allows you to target your ads to people that already visited your website. That’s pretty much it.

      4. It looks like they’re using mylikes but I’m not sure.

      • Servando,

        Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.

        To be a little more specific with the first question, so I can have one domain with duplicate posts (with a few changes on each article just to play it safe) and pick and choose which articles on the same domain to activate the propeller ads on? Is that possible?

        I thought that once you put propeller ads on your site that it would do the popunders whenever anyone visited your site, no matter the page. Do popunders appear when people click on anything and everything on the website?

        Also, do you have an example of a site that uses propeller ads? Could you add it to stream-seo so that I can see how it works?

        Reply

        • I don’t know if having the code enabled or disabled is possible for each page, but sounds like it’s possible if you can add the code on each page separately.
          Normally, you just put it in your header and it works sitewide, so you’ll need to find a way to do it just for specific pages.

          Just look for propeller ads examples on Google and you’ll find many pages.

  199. Hey Servando,

    I’m currently using Adsense for the Banner, RevenueHits and PopAds for popunder and make roughly $300/mths, do you think it’s a good idea to use propellerads for more banner too? and their popunder? Or do you think it’s too much ads and im overdoing it?

    In term of web traffic, most of them are organic and I’m gaining more each day. However, I want to make use of my traffic.

    I’m thinking since adsense is the best ad network around, I should just stay with that?

    Regards,
    Blake

    • It’s going to be too much man.
      If you have Adsense banners I’d stick with just one more network (wether that is Propeller, PopAds or Revenuehits) maximum instead of sticking 4 networks at the same time.

  200. Hey Servando,

    I really enjoyed the article and I have learned so much from your writing. I am looking for a bit of advice if you would be able to respond. Also, I would be more than happy to use your affiliate link for my propeller ads account.

    Recently I taught myself html and css (3 weeks ago) and I developed a website (iogames.space) which I though was fit to be hosted online and shown to the world. It has been up for 2 weeks and is already at the point where it is getting 12k+ page views a day… every single day it is increasing by 1000-3000 page views and I feel it has excellent potential to go viral just based on the nature of the extremely viral webgames niche that I am targeting.

    I am writing to you because I am seeking some guidance. The steps toward actually making money from the website just seem so murky and unclear. There are so many different ad networks and different routes to take that make it really hard to choose. What is the most logical first step towards monetizing my site? (without adsense because I was banned when I was a little kid for clicking my ads… I was an immoral idiot) Another one of the dilemmas I am having is the fact that my age (17) is holding me back quite a bit. I don’t think that I can get paid by any ad network at 17 years old because I cannot technically enter into any contracts until I am 18. I am assuming that I will be forced to work under my parent’s name in order to get paid until I turn 18. Have you ever had to deal with something like this? I want to take advantage of the explosive trend now, and I feel like I would be leaving a lot on the table if I wait until my 18th birthday next march.

    Also, would you recommend I setup propeller ads asap, or would it be smarter to wait until my website grows to a viral level in order to assure that I do not fend off any potential repeat visitors with the intrusive ads?

    Thanks so much!
    Mike

    • Hello Mike.
      Glad to hear your story. Well, if you were banned from Adsense many years ago, I’d give it a try to create a new account and apply for it.
      However, yes, there are a lot of networks and it’s up to you to test them and see which one works better for your site. PropellerAds works quite well for gaming sites. Also, many networks can pay via paypal, and you don’t need to be over 18 years old for that I think. Revenuehits is one example but you can find more alternatives in my blog.

      You can start testing propeller and see how it goes. They won’t pay you until you put your bank account but i don’t think you need to be over 18 if you add your father’s bank account or lend it from a friend who’s past 18 y/o.

  201. Hi Servando,
    I’m french, so sorry in advance for my mistakes ! I’m quite impressed by your work and by your advices. This is the only site I’ve found that actually provides useful tips and advices on the arbitrage method. I would really like to have your opinion on a site, which is one of my competitors in France : extase-y(dot)fr
    This website is a general viral news site that uses the arbitrage advertising method. The owner has created a Facebook page in October 2015, which has 425,000 likes today (super fast growth). However, all articles on the site are copied and pasted from other viral sources. So, the owner has banned the Google robot to visit his site (with robots.txt). I saw through SimilarWeb that the site is buying traffic with Taboola (80%) and Google Display Network (20%).
    Thus, my questions are the following :
    1. Taboola requires 500,000 page views per month. This site could therefore not directly start buying traffic with Taboola AND displaying ads with Taboola, am I right?
    2. How is it possible that this site does not get banned by Google for duplicate content ? He is buying traffic using the Google Display Network but it is strictly forbidden by Google to copy content. Or maybe, is it just forbidden to copy-paste content only with Google Adsense (to earn money) but not with Google Display Network (to buy traffic) ? There is something I do not understand.
    3. Assuming that at first he did not buy traffic from Taboola (because of the number of required page views), how do you think he started ? Only by buying trafic from Google Display Network ?
    4. In your opinion, is it possible to have 425,000 likes in 7 months just by buying traffic from Taboola/Google Display Network, and by displaying a Facebook like box on its website ? Or was he necessarily using Facebook ads as well ?
    I really do not understand how he was able to grow so fast in such a short time, while copying all the articles. Thanks in advance for your answer!

    Reply

    • Hello Yoan. Your English is quite good 🙂

      1. Maybe he’s spliting his traffic with another site OR faking more views on order to get approved. At the beginning it wouldn’t be possible but if his site has grown fast then it’s entirely possible.

      2. Well, if he’s blocking google bots and not using google tools like google analytics and webmaster tools he can stay under the radar for a long time. Also, i guess he has several Adsense accounts in case one goes down.

      3. I think he started with Facebook Ads as most people do. Also, there are other content discovery networks like Taboola with lower requirements and entry level.

      4. He probably used a lot of Facebook Ads as well. But yes, it’s very possible when a page goes viral. 425,000 likes isn’t that much actually. I had more than 20 million likes after a few months, so half a million isn’t impossible at all, although this days is a lot harder so it’s a good number.

      So, after all, I don’t think it’s something especial or I don’t think 7 months for growing to half a million fans is super difficult. Also, if you have a budget you can do that in 1 or 2 months. And for the part where he copies all the articles… well… the internet industry is very shady and there are a lot of people doing big numbers without following any rules. Google isn’t almighty when you do paid traffic. You have to follow their guidelines and rules when doing SEO, but paid traffic is a different story.

    what do you think it’s better from these options to get high CTR and low CP Like and of course tons LIKES 😀 :

    A. to set everything broad without ANY targeting only for 3 countries or more.

    B. set little targeting like : age between 35-13 and the language … etc.

    and do you think that 400$ can get me 15k likes in my page ?

    • Hello.

      A. Never mix countries in each campaign. use a campaign for each country you want to test. You can set everything broad and have super high CTR images or you can also go targeted and have great engagement too. Both methods work but for viral stories you don’t need to be super targeted.

      B. Run broad on age and genders and after a few days analyze your Facebook stats and see what works better and launch a campaign with those settings.

      C. That’s up to you. It’s not impossible but I can guarantee it.

    I’m wondering something, and i will really appreciate if you can show your opinion or answer to that:

    -I’m making FB ads just for testing, without any ad in my landing page, and i’m getting 0.0006 US$ per clic en FB Ads (for latinoamerica sites)… I wanna test Adsense, but i am concerned of getting banned just because the most powerful channel of traffic is the social media… And some hispanic webmasters are saying that Google bans the viral sites, for being not cost-effective for the advertisers. Have you heard about that, and do you think (in some way) that can be dangerous?

      Adsense has been very picky the last 6 months. There’s always a risk of being banned with this methods and that’s the reason I don’t rely on Adsense alone anymore.

      Reply

  218. Google’s Adsense policy says that a website should not include malware or contain pop-ups or pop-unders that interfere with the website’s navigation. So I take it since Propeller Ads’ pop under ads open in a new browser window behind the main browser window, Google will not classify their pop under ads as interfering with the website’s navigation?

    Also, recently a few webmasters have reported that they are getting a warning via the Google Search Console for Deceptive Site / Social Engineering which is caused by Propeller Ads’ pop under ads. Visitors who try to visit these websites are getting a “Deceptive site ahead” warning in their Google Chrome web browser. Google is also deindexing pages from these websites because of this.

    If you are currently using Propeller Ads’ pop under ads on your website(s) are you experiencing any of the problems I have mentioned above?

    If you google the following “pop-under ads deceptive warning” you can get more information on what I am talking about.

    • For this strategy, I don’t really care if the pages are indexed at all or not. All the traffic comes from social networks and I’m not looking for SEO traffic or anything like that.

      As for mixing Google Adsense and Propeller Ads, I’ve explained this in the article and for several comments below. You can always have 2 different pages (even different domains) so you don’t mix Adsense with pops but still make money from both.

  219. Servando, has tenido alguna infección en tu sitio con esa empresa? Es decir algún virus que que genere código malicioso y por ende google te penalizara.

    Te cuento, yo lo utilice si no mal recuerdo hace unas semanas ataras justo después de leer este post, por eso me anime a revisar algunas reviews de otras personas, donde la mayoría también mencionaron que esta empresa inyecta virus a tu sitio y tal fue así, que mi sitio se infectara justamente a los 2 días de haber integrado esta empresa.

    Antes de hechar la culpa a esta empresa, analice las posibles causas y todo apuntaba a ella. Lo que hizo fue desaparecerlo de google, como? Bueno, cada vez que entraba a mi sitio ya sea como invitado o por mi escritorio de wp, me salia un mensaje diciendo ALTO! este sitio quiere obtener tu información, (salia una pantalla roja), y como era mi primera vez , de ahí vi q había desaparecido de google y de ahí fui a mi WMT y me llego ese mensaje de advertencia.

    Me tomo como 3 días volverlo a la normalidad, pero bueno ya esta todo arreglado, por eso te pregunto si has tenido problemas?

    • Hola Juan.
      No, en realidad la mayoría de los anuncios que hablan de virus, son simplemente eso, anuncios. No son virus reales pero tratan de hacer que descargues antivirus, etc. Aunque si he visto algún sitio o anunciante que se pasa de listo y quiere usar algún código malicioso (cosa que está prohibida en Propellerads pero aun así algunos se la juegan).

      La estrategia se basa en tener miles de visitas directamente de redes sociales como Facebook por lo que no me interesa en lo absoluto lo que piense Google o no del sitio o si lo indexa, le sube/baja los rankings, etc.

      Pero eso es algo que puedes hablar fácilmente con tu manager de Propeller, ya que incluso varios de los sitios más grandes del mundo usan esa ed de tráfico y en su mayoría es tráfico orgánico (sobre todo sitios de descargas, ver películas/series en linea, etc.

    • Organically without paying for ads?
      It depends on your audience and level of engagement with your articles.

      To make $30 per day steady I would consider around 50,000 to 100,00 fans (depends on the engagement) to avoid paying for boosted posts, although I don’t really like that strategy as it’s very volatile and completely depends on the FB reach algorithm.

        • Doesn’t matter.
          There’s a sweet point where you just won’t make more posting more, and your earnings will actually decrease if Facebook thinks you’re posting more than you should.

          Reply

    • No. If you use groups that’s considered as SPAM.
      Also, you can’t use FB Ads with groups, just with Fan Pages.

  222. Hi,
    Do you think ” terms of conditions” , “privacy” and “dcma removal” are important in order to create a viral site… If so do we need lawyer ? I am very confused. Please advice me…

    Thank You.

    Reply

    • When you receive a DMCA what Google does is they remove your content from their search engine and you can lift the penalty if you delete said content. No need a lawyer unless you want to fight back and argue that the content was originally yours (which probably won’t be in this case).

      Always link to the sources and give credit where it’s due.

        • Sorry, but I can’t check site by site every time someone emails me or leave a comment with it.
          It’s all matter of testing and improving it and I can’t decided wether to kill one site or not just by quickly looking at it.

  224. AWESOME !!

    but what if i only use FACEBOOK PAGE LIKE campaign and post articles directly to my FB page ?
    let’s say that the page is 10k likes and it’s so active, would this plan work ? is it profitable also ?

    Thank you

    Reply

    • Yes. If you’re fans are quite active and you don’t need to boost posts it’s fine too. But you might want to test them anyways to increase your revenue.

      Reply

      • Thank you for the response,

        can you please check my calculations right here :

        let’s say i have a 10k likes in a facebook page and it’s so active, and i

        post 10 viral articles daily and each article gets 500 page views so the

        total daily page views are 5000 page views , month it is 150 000 page

        views, let’s assume that the CTR in Adsense is 3% and the CPC is 0.3$

        because the country targeted is USA so : 0.03 * 0.3 * 150 000 = 1350$ a

        month, and the CPM is 2$ per 1000 so it’s 300$.

        Can you please check my plan here because it’s too awesome to believe !! 😀

        Thank you Again

        Reply

        • Yes, your calculations are correct.
          Doesn’t sound too awesome for me as I’m sure you can increase the CTR a little but it’s a start.
          Also, getting 5,000 daily page views from a fan page with 10,000 fans is very unlikely unless it is really active and engaged.

          Reply

          • Thank you

            when you Fb page was 10k, how much page views were you getting on your website using facebook organic traffic not sponsored ? and was it active or not ?

            Peace

            Reply

            • It was pretty active. If the page wasn’t active it would mean I’m doing things wrong, or my articles and images are super boring.
              With 10k fans, I’m not sure but probably a few hundred visits per day already. 10k is the minimum I would get before starting to send people to my website.

  225. I don’t think it easy to make it because price advertising on facebook it expensive then advertiser propeller pay to us.

    Reply

    • No. It’s definitely not easy, but as long as your articles are great and go viral you will make more money than what you pay on Facebook.
      Not something everybody can do though. it requires a good budget and testing a lot, as with pretty much any other business.

  226. Hello Servando,

    there is something i don’t understand, how do you ” yourself ” use Propellerads+ Adsense and get that amount of traffic ?

    Reply

    • The traffic in this strategy comes from Facebook Ads as explained above by creating viral articles. Is that what you mean or maybe I’m not understanding your question?

      Reply

      • That’s why you can separate the URLs as mentioned above. So you can have a page with pops and a page with clean Adsense only. Up to you 🙂

        Reply

          • Yes. I explained in the article that you can make one page with just adsense or just pops or both. That’s up to you.
            Just duplicate the pages, one with adsense and 1 with pops and depending on the traffic you send them to one or to another. It’s a simple process 🙂

  227. i was using propellerads but yesterday i got email from google search console with subject “Social engineering content detected on (my domain)” and here the details of the email

    “Google’s Safe Browsing systems have detected that some pages on your site might be hacked or might include third party resources such as ads that are designed to trick users into installing malicious software or giving up sensitive information. To protect your site’s visitors, your site has been demoted in Google’s search results and browsers such as Google Chrome now display a warning when users visit your site.”

    so i have removed all the propellerads code from my website and have asked google for review, i have also contacted to propellerads team about this issue.

    What do you think propellerads are not secured? and how to avoid such security threats from google?

    Reply

    • Are you using it for search engine traffic?
      They have several barriers to avoid this as far as I know, but I mainly use it for viral traffic and in that case I couldn’t care less about what Google thinks as I don’t rely on them to get thousands of visits per day.
      A review should help you though.

      Reply

        • I think there’s an specific ad type from them that could be hurting you in the case of Search engine traffic. Better contact them and see how they proceed and what they actually recommend you.

          Reply

  228. As I know it is not allowed to put AdSense ads on the sites having pop up or pop under.

    Google clearly says –

    Site behavior
    Sites showing Google ads should be easy for users to navigate. Sites may not change user preferences, redirect users to unwanted websites, initiate downloads, include malware or contain pop-ups or pop-unders that interfere with site navigation.

    Please clarify this.

    Reply

    • I already explained this in the article 😉

      Basically, what I do is to put some pages with popunders and no Adsense and some pages with Adsense but no pop advertisement. It’s all explained up there 🙂

      Reply

      • Nope, you said – “For all of the articles that you promote to your fans organically (no Ads) use the URL where you have BOTH Adsense and PropellerAds”

        Reply

        • Yes, to avoid being banned from FB that’s correct.
          If you feel like you don’t want to mix Adsense with Propeller just do one for each copy of the article. Problem solved 🙂

          Reply

          • The ad codes your using havent been picked up by google if your promoting both. Stick with them.
            p.s this strategy can be used for a lot more than just viral sites btw.

  229. Can I use propellerads in the same website I use with adsense?
    and what kind of ads should I use?
    thank you so much.
