Hi,
I am running a referral ad on Facebook for my referral link. It's getting lots of traffic, the audience has been optimised, the ad content is good. It's got a relevancy score of 10, so plenty of clicks - but this isn't being reflected in my referral statistics?
Are they delayed on DO end?
Thanks
I believe you need to read the terms on referrals and understand how they work.
Basic(s) = Person A (DO Member) refers Person B
Person B receives 10$ Credit to do awesome things
After the 10$ runs out and person B spends 25$ ...
Person A receives 25$ to do more awesome things
The starts on this you can see in the billing and referrals sections of your account.
If you are running Facebook and/or Google campaigns with your referral
link you will need to refer to those services for stats.
Note that these campaigns may be in violation of the DO referral program(s).
@shivanand In my DO dashboard, my Facebook Business ad account shows a lot of clicks on the link, but the DO dashboard shows only 5 and has remained the same for a few days, yet the ad account shows clicks improving every hour?
I'm not talking about referrals, I know how the referrals work @jasonjpeters I am talking about clicks. Secondly, I don't think it's in violation of DO program, I'm not directly bidding on digital ocean keywords as it's audience based, rather than keyword based.
