Admitad’s Two Cents about CyberMonday

You must have heard of so-called CyberMonday, but we decided not to be penny wise and pound foolish… So, we’ve organized a whole CyberWeek (in Russian Language). To achieve this ambitious goal, we’ve convinced advertisers to prepare tempting and lucrative discount coupons. Some advertisers have even agreed to raise their rates.

Such an approach allowed us to provide publishers with excellent tools to improve conversion rates and make more of their current traffic. Armed with CyberMonday in Russia as a newsworthy event, webmasters also managed to generate extra visitors. We would like to extend a special thanks to all our 100+ advertisers who took up the challenge.

And now it’s time to announce the preliminary results.

Important! All the data refer exclusively to the CPA channel from Admitad’s internal reports. Global data may vary, but judging by this post on Zuckerberg Calling (TsukerbergPozvonit), the trends are the same.
