My experience in affiliate marketing is small, but my experience in marketing is huge. Marketing is marketing, but I stepped on a rake with Dao.ad. I've wanted to work in affiliate marketing, and after I had more or less succeeded with teasers and other channels, I've decided to try pushes.

What attracted me to the network Dao.ad:

+ Small deposit, the minimal deposit is $10. Just to test the work, understand Try the creatives. I Just thought that it's perfect for beginners. When you don't want to sink another 50 dollars. So the miser pays twice.

The interface did not cause any problems, everything is intuitive. The support answers well, if the time corresponds with ours. They work on European 9:00 - 19:00 CET. And this is the first inconvenience: you have to wait if you need to add and run a new campaign.

Everything would be fine, and you can get used to it, but I agree with the previous commenters:

- Exactly half of the clicks do not come either in the affiliate program, nor in the tracker. Empty. They are bots.

- The second point, which at first I fell for - there are really unknown conversions that come right at the first test. Especially if the conversion is a registration (which is still ok) or filling out a form. It hangs in the affiliate program in the pending status, then cancels or goes into trash. This is confusing and you do not see the real picture. Conversions force you to make another deposit and spin the campaign, optimize. Although it is not clear what there is to optimize with this kind of work. I would have regretted it if I had invested $50-100 $ to work with a normal network. I so went into deficit. Money was spent, in the excitement of the appearance of conversions I've put more money inro it. Now I do not move that much - almost 5 dollars are frozen on the hold.

What are the conclusions:

1) Campaigns were launched in different countries, and everywhere there is the same problem. Many clicks that are neither in tracker (I hooked it up to understand what's going on) nor in the affiliate program. It means that all sources are practically empty.

2) Imitation of conversions to stimulate customers.

Really, if it happens at small volumes, then what about the big ones?

Why I do not advise it for beginners: you'll spend money, believe in a decent ballance fullfilment, and there will be no result (and what you'll see at the beginning are just emulations, which are not worth paying attention to).

Afternoon.

Under-performance of 50% of clicks with pooches? This has never happened. Write to support with screenshots - we will compensate.

It's strange about conversions. In general, write to support, we will sort it out.
