And what about the gamblen Kvanvin? What color is the diagram? This is no longer arbitration. It's legal. Where can I find people who will pay? I've noticed that a lot of people are n't even aware of the basics of traffic arbitrage, so today cover them as quickly as possible. What is traffic arbitrage anyway? This is the answer Yandex Browser gives us. But I'll tell you in simple words. Traffic arbitrage is the same as reselling things or cryptocurrency, but what's being resold here is traffic, that is, internet users. I'll tell you right away with an example so that you can understand. A clothing brand needs customers. They have a Telegram channel, they need users for their Telegram channel. They are reaching out to you. You set up targeted advertising in any service, and redirect 1,000 people to their Telegram channel for 5 rubles. for one piece, and you get 20 rubles. per subscriber. 15 rubles net profit per subscriber. Well, if the volume is 1,000 people, then you know how much it is. But the main feature of this niche is that you can get into it with absolutely no investment. This is what we will talk about now. In general, there are two ways to obtain traffic in traffic arbitrage. The first is paid traffic. That is what I described to you above, reselling traffic. And the second is UBT. We'll talk about it in more detail today. If you beginner, so I recommend starting exclusively with Subt. I'll also tell you now using an example with a brand. Let's say the same brand orders 1,000 subscribers for a Telegram channel from you, but instead of buying ads and setting up targeted ads, you simply need to post a couple of videos or YouTube, get views on the desired topic, and subscribers will automatically click the link in the profile and be directed to the channel, and you'll earn 20 rubles for each. net profit. your time. At the initial stage, it is much better to simply lose time than money and, in addition, your time. Therefore, I recommend starting exclusively with UBT. The second most important thing is vertical. A vertical is a group of similar offers. There are quite a lot of them, so I’ll run through the most important ones. Dating is dating sites. You invite people to such sites and a reward under certain conditions. That is, let's say, for registration. Camping is a casino and gambling. You also invite people to play using your referral link and receive certain rewards, depending on the cooperation model: either 50% of the casino's revenue or a fixed fee per lead. And betting is betting on sports. The essence is the same as with gambling, absolutely the same. After we have chosen the filling method and vertical, we need the connection itself through which we will drive traffic. To make things clearer for you , I'll give you some examples from the gambling vertical. Let's say we posted a video about some popular streamer winning a large sum of money at a casino. In the description of the video itself , they wrote a link to this casino via the link in the profile. The video has garnered a certain number of views, and some of those who watched it will also want to try their luck and follow the link in the profile, which leads to the pre- landing page. In common parlance, this is called a "laying pad," that is, a Telegram channel in which one post, uh, with a link to that very casino. You can see an example on the screen now. Many of you will ask: "Why bother with all this fuss if you can just insert a Firstly, most sites ban direct links to such sites, and secondly, the concept of conversion comes into play . I'll also give you an example: if you do everything listed above, you'll get, for example, three registrations using your link and one deposit. But if you work well on your funnel. A funnel, by the way, is the entire path a person takes from your video to a deposit. Or create a better creative, for example, withdraw your winnings from the smoke counter yourself. Then the conversion rate will increase, and from the same deposit, but five. In general, conversion depends on two things. If you've posted a video and it's gotten a good amount of views, but few people have clicked on your link, you need to either change the format of your videos or mention your link more in your profile. If there are views, there are clicks on the link in the profile, but there are no deposits on the affiliate program itself, and if we are working with gambling, for example, then your funnel is very poorly converting. You need to improve it in every possible way. I'll leave an example of funnels vertical on my Telegram channel, so subscribe and wait for the delivery. Well, now let's sum up this video. The bundle includes your creative, the funnel, and the offer itself. That is, all of this is a connection. Always compare the conversion rate of clicks on the link in your profile and on your referral link. This will make your work much easier and you will lose less time and traffic. That's basically it.
