Video

Video is the most engaging ad format as it has much more room for creativity. There are many benefits of video advertising in TrafficStars. Craft a short video (15 - 30 seconds), adding the best moments of your show (performance). By adding a clear call-to-action to your video, you’ll encourage users to click through to your page.

Targeting options

Choose your targeting options according to your strategy.

In case you’re going to promote your live stream, the scheduling of the ad campaign is a must.

Select your time zone. Select the days and hours you want to show ads, i.e. you must be online during this time. time-range.png

Select the required countries and languages. countries and languages.png

Create separate ad campaigns for each device: Desktop, Mobile, and Tablet.

Mark non-proxy traffic only. non-proxy-traffic.png

The rest of the settings can be left as default.

Click next and go to the next tab - Audience and Pricing

Select the traffic type:

  • RON - all ad spots.
  • PRIME - Premium ad spots.
  • MEMBERS AREA - Ad spots with registered users.

Create separate campaigns for each traffic type. Set a higher bid for the Members area and a lower bid for RON traffic.

Select a pricing model by which you will buy traffic:

  • CPM - pay per impressions
  • CPC - pay per clicks
  • CPA - pay per conversion

We recommend starting with CPM model. By this model, you pay for impressions. That is, if your rate is $0.1, then you’ll pay $0.1 per 1000 impressions. pricing-models.png

💡 If you choose Native ad format, the CPMv model will also be available.

💡 Besides standard CPM, you can launch ads on Dynamic CPM. DCPM allows you to bid at the best price possible without going higher than your bid.

How to get the link?

There are 2 options: Use the direct URL of your live stream/page. This is the easiest option, but we do not recommend it. Use your affiliate link. You will earn extra money on the referral program by choosing this option. Also, you will be able to get more statistics about your traffic and increase your profits eventually. Let me show you how to do this using the Stripcash affiliate program as an example.

#1 Create your model account at Stripchat. You would need to get your nickname for the link. Open your stream. The link looks like this https://stripchat.com/yournickname. The word after the slash is your nickname.

Sign up at Stripcash.

#2 Go to the tab Links & Ad Creatives.

#3 Select Model’s room link-models-room.png

#4 Pick the Model’s name and enter the nickname

link-models-name.png #5 Select a pop-up window (optional).

#6 This link should be used in your TrafficStars ad campaign (We will paste the link in step #13).


#7 But that's not all! To pass info about leads (conversions), you need to go to the Media Buying Tools tab.

#8 Choose the Advanced mode and pick these options:

postback-types.png #9 Enter the name, like Stripcash, and replace the default tokens by the following: {memberId}, {revenue} and {transactionId}. Then click Generate. generate-postback-URL.png

#10. Here is your Postback URL. It should look like this: S2S-tracking-link.png

#11 Copy and paste it into the Stripcash Postback URL field.

💡 And don't forget to save your settings. postback-stripcash-settings.png

#12 Also, you need to add second postback to track registrations.

Fill in the fields as shown below.

  • Website - stripchat.com
  • Type - registration
  • Method - GET
  • URL - this is a postback that we already created, but without value and lead_code parameters. So you have to copy and paste the postback leaving only the key and clickid parameters.

The link will look like this: https://tsyndicate.com/api/v1/cpa/action?key=0WIPiutdEVmO08QkCZoTeT7dqQWqtcZiYxY7&clickid={memberId}

💡 The key parameter is a unique number for each user.

Click on the Create postback button. new-postback-registrations.png

#13 The final step is adding the link to the campaign. bold text The link will look like this:

https://go.xxxvjmp.com?userId=uniquenumber&onlineModels=yournickname&showModal=signup&memberId={click_id}&p1={adspot_id}&p2={creative_id}&campaignId=modelnickname

Paste the link. ad-campaign-URL-stripcash-offer-trafficstars.png

Double-check your settings. If everything is OK, then click Publish. Once the campaign is approved, your campaign will get traffic.

💡 There is an option for agencies that need to promote several models. Ask about it your account manager.
