I am setting up a new campaign with NeverBlue. I am new at Prosper202 but have tried to read everything and understand it. My Prosper202 is self hosted.

I went through the steps to create a campaign. I have copy pasted my NeverBlue affiliate link for the CPA offer into step 3. I am direct linking.

In step 7 after I hit the "generate a link", I do get a warning that says "WARNING: This tracking link is not attached to any text ad, are you sure you want to do this?" Since I am not attaching the link to a text ad I ignore it since I am using this for CPV.

When I copy the link that is created from step 7 and put in my browser to test it out I get an error page generated from Neverblue that says: "•Invalid creative specified (1188108)."

I have been messing around with it to get it right but no luck, same error page. Any suggestions on what the problem could be would be most appreciated.

Thanks!!

hi trip trap,

Sounds like you do not have the proper neverblue sub id syntax appended to your affiliate link. You can find it here:

www.subids.com

Let me know if that is not the issue,

Alex

Hey Alex.....thanks for getting back to me! This has been an adventure for me learning Prosper202 this past week.

That did it! Funny, I probably watched that subids video twice but did not connect the dots.

One last thing...The next obvious step is to send the tracking pixel from step 8 to my account manager at NeverBlue and have them put it on the thank you page of my CPA offer right? I guess they will know if secured or unsecured...?

Thanks again....!

Trip Trap,

Using Tracking202 makes the pixel placement not necessary. You can definitely send the pixel as a backup if you would like. I can explain more if you'd like.

If you want to make the global pixel secure you can add an s to the http:// portion making it https://

Thanks,

Alex
