What is Search Arbitrage?

Buying traffic from other Ad Networks (Meta, Taboola, MGID, Outbrain, Zemanta, etc.) and taking them to a special feed where Ads (which are running on Google, Bing or Yahoo) appear, and when people click on that you get paid.

Suppose you are getting one person from Facebook to search feed which costs you 0.12$ and when he/she clicks on the feed ads, you get 0.15$.

So the 0.03$ is your profit

The thing explained above is called Search Arbitrage!

I hope you understand the whole concept, but I just wanted to let you know that this is not as easy as I said.

There are so many difficulties in this whole process and in my opinion one of the hardest things people face is getting access to Search Feeds.

If you don’t like reading like me then you can watch the video below where I have explained the whole thing.

Now below I’m going to talk about another important thing that you need to know if you want to understand the Search Arbitrage Concept, and that is “FLOW“.

What is Flow and How Many Types of Flow Are There?

There are two types of flow.

• 1 Click Flow
• 2 Click Flow

When a visitor lands on a page where the ads directly appear and when they click on ads they get to the advertiser’s landing page – that is called 1 click flow.

AND,

When a visitor lands on a landing page where keywords appear and when people click on any keyword then they land on the ads feed. Then if they click on any ads they get redirected to advertisers’ landing page – this is called 2 click flow.

Now it’s time to know from where we buy traffic for these types of special search feeds.

What Are The Ad Networks To Buy Traffic From?

• Facebook
• Taboola
• Outbrain
• Zemanta
• MGID
• RevContent
• TikTok
• Google

These are some of the most popular ad networks from where you can buy traffic for search feeds.

It’s not like you can’t buy traffic from other ad networks, you can use any ad network but you need to confirm that the network provides high-quality traffic.

Search Feed Providers List

This industry has grown so much comparing the past, but surprisingly the search feed providers didn’t change much.

Here are the feed providers,

• System1
• Tonic
• Ads.Com (Previously known as Bodis)
• Sedo
• ExploreAds
• CodeFuel
• Media.net
• DomainActive

You can talk to these companies to get feeds from them but let me clear one thing, this is not that easy to get access to search feeds.

You need to have strong marketing spending or good relations with them or a person who might refer you to one of these companies.

No worries, we are going to launch a new article on how you can get access to search feeds.

Can You Really Make Money With Search Arbitrage?

Yes, this is one of the proven methods of making money online. We are currently one of the leading search arbitrage companies and in the past 90 days, we have spent more than 1.6 Million Dollars in this industry.

So if it was not making money for us we wouldn’t spend this much on this industry.

You can make money but these are some essential things that you need to keep in mind.

Traffic Quality is one of the most important things in this industry. If you are using some kind of pop ads, or pop-under ads, then you might get in big trouble with the feed.

This is because the quality of the traffic from pop-under ads is not that good to be true.

Keep Tracking The Campaigns Data is another important thing that you need to understand before starting a search arbitrage business.

You need to know which campaigns are making money and which are not. Tracking platforms help us to track the revenue, cost, and ROI in one place.

Also knowing when you should increase or decrease the budget of a campaign is also Important.
