yeah so like a few weeks back i was talking in here about testing those sweeps offers and the difference between cpl single opt-in double opt-in got some decent replies thx btw but man i gotta come back and warn u guys about something dumb that just happened to me ok context i was running this one sweeps offer from a network i wont name but its one of those newer ones that popped up late last year payout was decent for a cpl like 2.50 per lead which is okay for my tier of traffic ran it for a week on native got like 200 leads submitted all good right then payout day comes and my am hits me up saying oh we noticed high fraud and theyre holding like 80 of the leads i ask for details proof anything they send me some generic report about ip clustering and duplicate submissions but heres the kicker my tracking shows clean traffic low bounce rate decent time on page no proxies or vpns cause im using a basic filter script i wrote myself so im like bro show me the actual flagged submissions radio silence for two days then they say policy and close the ticket so now im out like 400 bucks and learned the hard way that some networks just use fraud as an excuse to not pay on sweeps offers especially when ur small and cant fight it feels like they bank on us not having the time or resources to dispute tldr if ur testing sweeps cpl stuff maybe stick with the bigger established networks even if the payouts are slightly lower at least they usually pay out lol

Been doing this 3 years and smh networks will stab ya if ur small, gotta stick with the big guys or get burned.

lol bruh, sounds like u need something like fraud score by isolated. helps flag suspicious stuff early so u can dump bad traffic before they screw u over. maybe worth the extra expense rn.

Careful with that mindset, bruh. Even big networks can screw ya if they want, and small ones can pay if u got legit traffic. gotta diversify and have proof of good quality traffic or they'll find a reason to skip out.

U think testing all three in different niches or offers might give u a clearer picture of which converts best for u. Mix it up, keep track of epc and conversions

Last month i tested SOI and DOI in a different niche and noticed DOI was way more stable. Do u think the niche u testing in affects which one works better?

Spot on. I lowkey swear by Voluum for tracking all that stuff, makes it easy to see what's really converting and what's not. Keeps everything in one place, so you don't gotta guess

just my 2 cents, you should check out Voluum if you want solid tracking across different sweepstakes types, makes it way easier to compare performance and see what sticks.

Wait, you posted about sweepstakes CPL vs SOI vs DOI twice? Did you mean to? kinda confusing when it sounds like you repeated yourself

Last month I was messing around with some sweepstakes campaigns and I swear I saw the same post pop up twice about CPL, SOI, and DOI. At first I thought maybe it was a glitch but then realized sometimes ppl just like to reiterate stuff or maybe they're trying to clarify. Either way, yeah, your post got me thinking if maybe you had some new insights or if it was just a repeat.

Did you mean to post it twice or just a slip? It kinda sounds like a repeat but maybe I'm missing something.

yep exactly lol sometimes I feel like these topics just keep coming up like a broken record but maybe it's 'cause we all trying to crack the same code. ymmv tho. gotta keep testing. stay sharp!

been doing this 3+ years and I swear these topics pop up all the time like people just keep circling the same questions but honestly I think it's 'cause everyone's still trying to figure out which approach hits best for their traffic so gotta keep testing and adjusting.

came here to say exactly this
