New Year’s holidays are coming. We all want a little rest and relaxation. But, unlike other jobs, affiliate marketing can’t be just abandoned for a week or two. If your campaigns are not up and running, you’re not earning money and probably missing out on some great opportunities. Is it even possible to take a break from affiliate marketing without losing profits?
We’ve prepared some tips for you on how to keep your campaigns running during the holidays.
1. Plan your campaigns ahead. You should not only plan when and where to launch your campaigns but also what to do if they fail.
2. Double-check your campaign set up. Checking the campaign set up is crucial if you’re not planning to keep a watchful eye on your campaign right from the moment it launches. Many things can go wrong so it’s important you do your best not only to keep your site up but to make money continuously while you’re away. Make sure that every aspect of your campaign is working correctly before you leave it to run unsupervised.
3.If you planning to launch new campaigns right before clocking out and taking some time off, you need to check the following things:
- Did you set the right bid? By accidentally setting your bid too high you might come back to see that your campaign has spent all the money in one day on an unoptimized chunk of traffic. Always double-check your bid before launching a campaign. Bidding high it’s one of the best ways to test a lot of traffic but not the way to earn good money.
- Are you sure your landing page is working? This is yet another area that will need your incisive attention before you let it run unsupervised.
4.Set budgets and limits. It’s crucial that you do that to keep your campaigns spending evenly and non-excessively, Being overly careful might lead to ineffective testing and cutting yourself from sources of income. For example, if you set a daily budget to $5 you will buy very little traffic and or rather low-quality traffic, depending on your chosen bid. Additionally, such a number is not quite enough to get your campaigns going. If you want to find ways to make money you need to invest first.
5.Check the relevance of rates, caps and changes by offers with your personal manager. In this case, a missed CPA condition change notification might not work well even on well-tuned campaigns.
Everyone needs to get some rest from time to time, and the New Year holidays are a great opportunity to spend time with family, friends, or just relax. You definitely can make money while you chill out. Just keep this checklist in mind and have a happy holiday!
