TrafficJunky uses a self-serve bidding, pre-paid advertising platform. We are based on a CPM bidding model. You select the sites and spots you'd like to advertise on and bid for traffic. The higher the bid, the greater the percentage of traffic you'll get. You may also select specific Geo locations if you want to target countries, cities and states, as well as time targets if you see that certain time ranges work best for your ads. The amount you bid for a spot is taken from your balance every thousand impressions. You can also set daily budgets for ad campaigns, and pause a campaign at any time. Daily campaign stats are available to help you optimize your campaigns and maximize your revenue.
The goal of our algorithm is two fold:
In order to do so, it will check the bid amount, the targeting options for that campaign and the daily budget assigned to it.
If the account funds are too low to cover all active campaigns’ daily budget, the daily budget taken into account will be lowered to match the funds available, reducing the risk that the account will overspend and go into negative balance.
According to the number of potential impressions for each campaign set for that geo spot, along with the restrictions applied to the campaign (such as frequency capping), the algorithm will assign impressions based on the highest potential revenue for the publisher while trying to grant impressions to as many advertisers as possible.
The TrafficJunky platform was designed to be used as a self-serve media buying platform, enabling you to create, manage, and optimize your campaigns. You can do so through your account dashboard. Real time statistics and user friendly campaign editing tools give you full control. Statistics for banner CPM, CTR, impressions, cost, and much more will help indicate which campaigns need optimization; our campaign editing tools enable you to do all that.
Products and banners convert differently on every site and spot, testing a few placements as well as creatives is important and will demonstrate where your product converts best.
To make sure your campaign is ready to receive traffic, check that:
When your campaign is ready to receive traffic (see question above) it starts receiving traffic immediately. There is up to a 1 hour delay on the Campaign Stats page, and up to a 25 minute delay on the View Bids Table. Check back later to see updated statistics.
Geographic areas such as countries, regions or cities world wide are available in the targeting options in your campaign settings page.
We give you the ability to set specific time frames for your campaigns in order to allow you to better reach out to your customers. Time targeting allows you to run your campaigns during time slots that best suit your product to better target your market. This feature is available in your campaign settings page, under the Capping / Campaign Schedule section.
We offer keyword targeting as a means to target specific audiences for niche products. You can find this option in your campaign settings page, under Advanced Targeting / Keyword Targeting section. The data is populated through video tags as well as searched terms.
A TrafficJunky conversion tracker is a code generated by our system that needs to be placed on the conversion confirmation page (Thank you page, order confirmation page, payment page...). Once on the page, the code will track all conversions.
Your new tracker will now be added to your list of existing trackers. All that you have to do from there is retrieve the code (HTML or PHP) to be added to the conversion page by clicking on invocation code. Please note that in order to make sure the tracker works well, it needs to be fed some data depending on the type of transaction it is measuring (transaction ID, Sales amount,...).
Conversions coming from TrafficJunky will appear under "TJ conversions" (seen on the Tracking Tools page). Conversions seen under "All conversions" means our pixel fired and was counted, but our server didn't receive the information that ties that conversion to a specific Ad, campaign and banner that triggered the click. Conversion tracker statistics:
In order to check your tag integration, you need to go to the live confirmation page and display the source code.
The tag should be in the source code in the body of the page, between the
<body>
and
</body>
tags.
Please also make sure there are no spaces in the tag or the data passed.
Correct tag:

If all looks to be set up correctly, but you are still not seeing data in your member account, please feel free to get in touch with our support team and we will help you find out what the issue might be.
In order to help bidders track their campaign more efficiently, TrafficJunky offers URL tokens on its ad creation page. These tokens will allow you to populate dynamic information in your tracking link to pass relevant information such as the banner id, the spot name and much more.
List of our tokens
Server2Server tracking is a variation of the conversion tracker for customers that are not able to have the invocation code added on the offer conversion page but work with an offer that allows postback URL tracking.
In order to set the postback URL, you will have to create a conversion tracker. Once it’s done, go to the “Postback URL” tab of the conversion tracker Invocation Code popup. Copy the url that looks as follows and send it to the offer or set it up in your tracking tool:
http://ads.trafficjunky.net/tj_ads_pt?a=XXXXXXXXX&member_id=YYYYYY&cb==$randomNumber ?>&cti=[TRANSACTION_UNIQ_ID]&ctv=[VALUE_OF_THE_TRANSACTION]&ctd=[TRANSACTION_DESCRIPTION]&aclid=[ACLID]
The same parameters as above can be personalized, however, the most important thing you need to do in order to have the postback URL work is to make sure that the ACLID (Click ID) is passed back for each conversion.
The ACLID is a parameter that is added to each and every click coming from our system (&aclid=RANDOM_CHARACTERS).
This parameter needs to be saved throughout the session and sent back using the postback URL so our system can link it to that specific click.
Should your tracking software or offer be unable to map the ACLID to their CLICKID parameter, you can use a token during the banner creation:
http:www.yourlandingpageurl.com?YOUR_CLICK_ID_PARAMETER={ACLID}
Here’s the list of UTM parameters with some usual tokens associated to it but you are free to use your own:
Campaign: Groups all of the content from one campaign in your analytics.
Ex: utm_campaign={CampaignID}
Source: Which website is sending you traffic.
Ex: utm_source={SiteName}
Medium: The type of marketing medium that the link is featured in.
Ex: utm_medium=TrafficJunky
Content: Used to track the different types of content that point to the same URL from the same campaign, source, and medium codes. Often used in PPC or with two identical links on the same page.
Ex: utm_content={BanID} or utm_content={SpotName}

Advertisers have their own banners made or get them from their Affiliate network.
Animated ads may not necessarily receive more clicks than a static ad. An ad's performance has many variables: the product being advertised, the style of the ad, color, image(s), call to action and many other factors.
Ads that do not follow our Advertisers' Rules and Regulations are rejected by our compliance team. Rejection reasons vary per site and spot, they are included in the notification emails. Check to see that you have subscribed to Ad Approval notification emails on the My Profile page.
False advertising or misleading advertising is the use of false or misleading statements or deceptive images in advertising. TrafficJunky rejects misleading ads and landers during the ad review process to prevent false advertising on our Network to maintain the integrity of the sites and products advertised so as they do not lose credibility to current and future visitors. In the short run you can turn a quick profit with false advertising by persuading a visitor to click or purchase when they wouldn't otherwise, but in the long run the lack of credibility of the products advertised on the sites damages all stakeholders, including yourself. If you answer "Yes" to one of these questions then you are false advertising and your ad will be rejected.
Ads are reviewed daily by our compliance team to make sure they follow TrafficJunky's Rules and Regulations. We are open 24/7. Ads will be reviewed in the order submitted.
For sales leads, a good ad is an ad that maximizes CTR. Ads designed for CTR should have:
Our Rules and Regulations page lists all banner rules and specifications per site and spot. Banner sizes can be found on the second page of the Buy Ads process once a site is selected or can be found on the Ad Formats page in the tour area.
Our Rules and Regulations page lists all banner rules and specifications including animation rules.
Pop-under inventory is only available to eligible accounts. To see if you are eligible, contact our support team.
The use of iframes is offered to clients who have proven a solid track record of uploading acceptable ads, without any issues with regards to both rules or malicious intentions. We recommend you start out with Gifs and Jpegs, and down the line we will be happy to re-evaluate the use of iframes on your account.

TrafficJunky uses a CPM model based on a live bidding system. CPM (or cost per 1000 impressions) live bidding pricing is determined by the market and it’s competition and based on the percentage of traffic you bid for. The higher you bid, the more traffic you can get based on your daily budget and account balance. Your campaign will stop receiving impressions when your campaign daily budget is reached, when you decide to pause the campaign, or if your pre-loaded funds have depleted. Your pre-loaded balance is billed as you receive impressions.
TrafficJunky does not offer CPC. The volume and value of our traffic best fits the CPM live bidding model we have developed, allowing advertisers with any budget to run a test at low risk while maximizing their return on investment.
Flat rate sales are managed by an experienced sales team and are only available for product owners. Only proven products on our traffic will be able to make an application for prepaid inventory. To inquire about the possibility of arranging a flat rate deal, please email
businessdev@trafficjunky.com
TrafficJunky works on a pay-as-you-go model. You need to load funds in your account before you can start receiving traffic. You can do so by Paxum, Wire Transfer and other methods. To see all the payment methods available to you click on the +Add Funds link, located on the top right hand side of your account page. Your preloaded balance can also be viewed on the top right corner of the page when you are logged into your account.
Your invoice is created following each payment, along with a payment confirmation email. To modify the emails you are subscribed to, log into your account and click on My Profile.
To locate your invoices
Please note, Crypto invoices are generated twice a month. 2000 charge method invoices are generated once a week.
TrafficJunky does not provide insertion orders for bidding clients. Traffic is purchased on a live bidding platform, which means the amount of traffic an advertiser can get will fluctuate based on the market and competition. Our platform works on a prepaid system; funds are preloaded into a user's account and deducted from, as the advertiser's campaign receives traffic.
VAT deduction is a Value Added Tax. In order to be compliant with Cyprus VAT regulations, we are required to pay VAT tax on certain TrafficJunky bidding transactions. The following situations require a tax to be charged:
Time Targeting
Start your campaign immediately or target peak-conversion days and hours. Choose the days of the week and time-of day your ads are displayed and optimize your campaigns for your audience’s online buying behavior.
Geo Targeting
Define the boundaries of your geo-targeted campaigns to specific countries, regions, and cities. Max 10 GEOs per campaign.
Frequency Capping
Limit the number of times your ad is displayed to a visitor and avoid overexposure and response drops.
ISP Targeting
TrafficJunky’s ISP database gives you access to an extensive list of 10,000s of global mobile ISPs you can choose from to ensure your ads reach a precise mobile audience.
Keyword Targeting
Keyword targeting allows advertisers to reach users in the right context. Target your campaign to visitors’ tastes with keywords, search terms and other contextual targets. Your banners will only display when these keywords are searched
Device targeting
Engage your audience across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices to provide a consistent, impactful message. Leverage your campaign’s approach for a specific media device and its users’ behaviors.
OPTIMIZE often. Make sure to update banners frequently. Add new ones to replace the lowest performing ones to increase ROI.
TRACK everything from click to conversion! We offer a TJ conversion tracker as well as S2S tracking. Many of our advertisers also use 3rd party tracking software to gather data. Voluum, Imobitrax and Prosper are a few great tracking tools available.
SCALE your campaign. Once you have a positive ROI, scale up by increasing bid selection, GEO targets, and try out new keywords. Keep in mind that you will still need to keep a close eye on your conversion ratio to make sure your updates don’t jeopardize your return on investment.
Our rules and regulations are here to protect publishers and advertisers and to make sure there is nothing blocking you from getting your campaigns live. By uploading ads that do not follow those rules, they will be rejected rather than being active, gathering valuable data and making you money.
Our blog has several sections:
"Network news" will contain information about new spots, pricing updates and much more TJ network related information that can give you an edge on your media buying.

Affiliate marketing can seem both easy and extremely hard when starting in the business.
Some people see in it an easy way to make money but soon enough, the amount of work needed to launch a successful campaign can seem daunting.
There’s several affiliate marketing forums where marketers exchange information or post “follow along” threads intended to help fellow marketers in their quest for the big bucks.
If you want to advertise on a tube site, you should check out what is currently being shown. Remember to use a VPN in order to check the proper Geo and get a close look at the ad rotation. Identify the ads that are on the same vertical as you and analyze the way they are built.
You should avoid, at all cost, copying what you see since your ad will obviously perform less if it is identical to what already exists. However, it should give you enough ideas to design ads of your own.
Thousands of advertisers use TrafficJunky on a daily basis to acquire the quality traffic they need to promote their offers. Every month, some of the newcomers fail to achieve the results they expected and they give up. Most of the time, however, success was not far off and a positive ROI could have been a reality by avoiding these 5 common mistakes:
Claiming on your ad that the service you offer is free, but once the visitor arrives on the landing page and sees a $50 price tag, then the user is more likely to drop off. The secret is to find a banner that will bring you a high CTR without being too far off from what you are selling so that you do not lose all those hard earned clicks.
At TrafficJunky, we see thousands of ads being uploaded daily. A common mistake that newcomers make is using only one banner for their entire campaign. The key is to test out multiple banners and see what works. No matter how good you are at banner design, you should always try different angles, calls to action or images to find the sweet combination that will bring you the quality clicks you are looking for.
The same error as with banners but related to the landing page. The landing page is one of the most important pieces of the affiliate marketing puzzle. The banner will spark the interest and get the user to your landing page, but this is where the business starts. You should use your landing page to hook the user and prepare him for the offer itself. We strongly advise you to test out several different landing pages and constantly drop the least performing ones while adding new landing pages to replace them.
TrafficJunky is one of the most transparent ad networks out there. We show you the competing bids for a given spot/geo combination. You should always try to use this to your advantage - using the default bid might be an OK solution to test out a new set of banners, but if you really want to maximize your campaigns, you need to play around with your bids to find that sweet spot where you will get enough impressions to sustain the traffic to your landing page without overpaying so your eCPC stays low enough to be profitable.
This is by far the biggest error that affiliate marketers can make. If you are serious about making money online but need help making it happen, do not hesitate to reach out to our support. Our team of experts will be more than happy to help you get started on the road to success.
Building a successful campaign takes some investment in both time and money. Unless you are amazingly lucky, you will need to test a sizable amount of banners, landing pages and several different offers to find the secret recipe that will bring you success and a positive ROI.
Even the most seasoned marketers sometimes hit a wall with a new offer or a campaign that used to work but no longer converts as well. Staying focused is what will make the difference between success and failure.
