Country overview – Croatia

Country overview – Croatia

Hello our dear affiliates and the ones who are ready to become part of our fast growing network,

I believe you already had a chance to read our posts about GEO’s Zetaniche is covering, or detailed country overview for our Balkan beauty – Serbia, that we have prepared for you before.

As we started series of posts dedicated to countries in which we are operating and offering some of the most popular market’s offers at the moment, we have decided to share with you some more information about Croatia this time.

Continuing in the same good and interesting rhythm, firstly, we would like to provide you with some interesting facts about Croatia. We believe there are a thousand and one reasons to fall in love with Croatia. Right from the rich history of Balkan, sun-kissed coast, wonderful architecture, numerous dreamy island, delicious cuisines and some of the best wines on the planet – Croatia has everything!

Did you know that one of the popular HBO series “Game of Thrones” was filmed in Dubrovnik, on the Croatian coast?

I’m sure you like these series as much as we do, but let’s get back to information that can be useful for you in regards of promotion our numerous Croatian offers.

Basic facts:

  • Croatia is a country situated at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe, on the Adriatic Sea, with its capital city Zagreb.
  • Estimated population in 2016 was 4,23 million.
  • Croatian is the official language of Croatia, minority languages are Serbian, Slovakian, Czech, Hungarian and Italian.
  • The Croatian Kuna is the currency of Croatia. The currency code for Kuna is (HRK) and the currency symbol is (Kn).

Internet usage

When it comes to the internet usage in Croatia, from total population of 4,225,001, in 2016. (74.2%) which makes 3,133,485 Croatians were using internet regularly (on average at least once a week) at home, at work or elsewhere.

As we can see a large majority of Croatians used the internet in 2016. It has become important for daily life, education, work and participation in society as it enables people to access information and services at any time from any place.

Studies are showing that almost 90% of Croatian internet users inform themselves about the product or service before purchase and to do that they use different channels. Since here at Zetaniche, we are offering our affiliates various health and beauty products for promotion, we did a small research and it seems that Internet users in Croatia are seeking for health and beauty information online very willingly.

The leading motivation for seeking medical information is “unanswered questions after visiting a doctor”. Patients who feel they were given insufficient information, or simply seek more information than the doctor provided them with, go online for more information, which no longer seems to be reserved to those with the highest education degrees. So, that is why we are recognizing a big potential in promoting health and beauty related offers in this GEO, where affiliates should consider promoting them on health and beauty related internet sites, portals or blogs, providing users information that they are seeking for and offering them products that will solve their problems.

The dominant source of information are still search engines such as Google, used by 61% of respondents. After Google, here are the most visited sites in Croatia:

Top sites in Croatia

According to Similar Web current top 10 visited sites in Croatia are:

Now, lets check some StatCounter statistics that we have pulled out for Croatia:

Mobile vs. Desktop traffic

Mobile vs. Desktop traffic

Hello everyone,

We were writing a lot regarding choosing a right vertical, niche and product for promotion, but this time we have decided to dedicate one whole post to traffic share, in order to make your life easier when it comes to choosing the right traffic for promotion our Zetaniche offers: is it mobile or desktop?

 

 

Under desktop traffic are considered internet users who are sitting behind their desktop computers or laptops, while mobile users are using smartphones, feature phones or tablets. Tablets and Smartphones used to be treated as one in the past.

October of the 2016. was the first month ever where mobile usage passed desktop, according to internet monitoring, where the combined traffic from mobile and tablet devices reached 51.2% compared to desktop access which was 48.7%, marking this the first time ever since the beginning of the tracking stats for internet usage.

How are stats looking today?

Reports from SimilarWeb are showing that in the last month, September of 2017, from total of 264.0B online visitors worldwide, traffic share between desktop and mobile was: 33.77% for desktop and 66.23% for mobile.

 

It’s more than obvious that mobile is taking over the internet usage game, looking globally, but let’s look deeper into this, from the perspective of our network and promoting our offers through affiliation.

Since Zetaniche is always opened for both, direct site owners and affiliates who are working with other traffic channels, it is very important that we mention that affiliates who are owning a website need to optimize their site for all devices. Site needs to be mobile friendly, with regularly positioned ad spots, in order to take the most out of the promoting certain offers.

Researches are showing that visitors who are using smartphones to browse a website that’s not mobile friendly will on average:

  • spend less time exploring and browsing the site,
  • be less interested in performing actions such as making an order,
  • be more likely to return back to the search engine results and to visit another website.

And we don’t want any of these situations, right?

Zetaniche GEO’s and offers: desktop or mobile?

We were writing before about GEO’s Zetaniche is covering and here is the split between mobile and desktop internet usage for the September of 2017 in GEO’s Zetaniche is working with, according to the Stat Counter.

 

The majority of Zetaniche offers are optimized for mobile and desktop, or both. But of course, depending on traffic source offers are performing differently. For example our COD offers are performing great on desktop traffic and they are performing quite well on mobile pages too, but depending a lot more on mobile traffic source. For example, if affiliate is sending mobile traffic from Facebook to COD offers, they will convert great, but if affiliates who are working with paid traffic are sending mobile traffic from some of the mobile ad networks out there to COD offers, they have a chance to not perform that well.

What are advantages of working with mobile traffic?

Fist and the most obvious reason is that mobile usage is raising a lot compared to desktop and this trends is not showing any signs of slowing down especially in less developed countries.

 

Charts above are showing that among countries we are working with, the biggest internet usage over mobile devices is in Poland (65.18%), Albania (54.68%) and Montenegro (50.04%).

For the affiliates who are interested in focusing on less developed countries, mobile is definitely worth of trying. They will get more volumes and these GEO’s are easier to monetize.

Second reason is that affiliates can take advantage of offers that are not applying to desktop. For affiliates who are interested in mobile, we have mobile offers only such as PIN submits and mobile subscription offers.

What are advantages of working with desktop traffic?

When we are talking about the mobile traffic and mobile usage, mobile devices are generally used in more casual situations. People are using mobile devices for social media, chats, playing games, etc. And even if audience can be exposed for certain ads at that time, there is a possibility that they will not be so much interested into buying anything or filling the ordering form over small screen, just because they are not “in a mood for it” while doing casual things and chilling.

Of course that buying power over mobile exists, but in some cases desktop simply works better. It’s not rare that audience of certain sites see ads of product browsing over the mobile device, but they will not buy it or order it immediately, rather they will visit the site later over desktop or browse for some more information using their desktop device.

Also, one of the big things when it comes to desktop is age of desktop users.

First of all desktop devices are easier for usage for older people, especially considering small screens or keyboards of mobile devices.

For some of the products Zetaniche is offering for promotion, especially in male enhancement, health and beauty (anti age) niche, older people are known to be better audience.

Also, some people just don’t feel comfortable or find it easy to enter their personal data over mobile, but rather use desktop devices for ordering something.

From the GEO’s perspective, according to Stat Counter internet usage over desktop devices for GEO’s Zetaniche is operating, in September of 2017 was looking like this:

 

We see that top 5 GEO’s were Ukraine (83.10%), Czech Republic (78.66%), Belarus (76.35%), Estonia (76.08%), Latvia (75.99%) and Lithuania (74.86%). In all of these GEO’s we are having various offers that are having great potential for working on desktop traffic.

But what is the final choice?

  • If you are interested in promoting our offers that are more appropriate for younger audience, mobile could be better choice.
  • In case you are interested in promotion our only mobile related offers, mobile is your choice, of course.
  • In case you are interested in promoting Zetaniche offers that require older audience, start with desktop, but you can test other channels with mobile, too.
  • In case you are interested in our less developed countries, you should definitely try mobile.
  • But the most important here is, that you should start with both, desktop and mobile. Both of them are making money and focusing only on one platform is a big mistake!

Thank you for reading our blog post. Don’t hesitate to leave us a comment below sharing with us your thoughts regarding mobile and desktop platform.

Where are you experiencing better results?

If you are not part of Zetaniche yet, join us today and start promoting our desktop and mobile offers. Your AM will gladly help you with setting up everything!

Until next time,

Yours Zetaniche team.

Product overview: WhatsChat

Product overview: WhatsChat

Online dating is developed into a multi-million industry and it’s not showing signs of slowing down. By the latest researches, this industry is about to grow by around 6% by the end of this year compared to the previous one.

Online dating has been around for more than 20 years and meeting a partner online is not a new concept, but going into mobile and allowing audience multi-platform user experience is something that is definitely going in favor of promoting a digital dating offer. More and more people are changing their traditional social habits and looking online to find love or sex.

Let us present you star among our digital dating products – our premium SMS offer – WhatsChat!

What is WhatsChat?

When it comes to mobile affiliate space, one of the things Zetaniche regularly does is analyzing the market for our digital products. Zetaniche is always trying to keep an eye on the latest market changes, in order to find the best possible ways to make our digital offers work complied with current regulations, but making the highest possible income out of it.

Our premium SMS offer WhatsChat is especially sticking out among all the popular offers we are offering for promotion. WhatsChat is premium SMS offer that is working on SMS billing flow principle, which automatically means that we are not restricting our affiliates and publishers to promote WhatsChat through carrier connection only. With SMS billing flow, our affiliates are able to make conversions on wifi and desktop traffic, as well.

How does WhatsChat work?

WhatsChat is premium SMS offer, where subscription (conversion) is done either through clickable SMS – reply or pin submit. In both cases, user needs to use his mobile operator in order to confirm that he wants subscription and to be charged by his mobile operator for this action. Subscription amount is deducted from user’s balance or added to his mobile phone bill.

These are exact WhatsChat conversion flows:

  • Desktop conversion is pin submit. User sends SMS, gets pin, enters pin on page, if pin is proper, conversion is triggered.
  • Mobile conversion is click2sms, user gets clickable SMS composer, he clicks and after the message was sent, conversion is triggered.

Since conversion flows are via user’s mobile operator, user doesn’t need to use a credit card or other forms of payment which makes WhatsChat conversion process very easy and simple.

Where WhatsChat is available in?

At the moment WhatsChat is available in 17 countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Croatia, Hungary, Lithuania, Latvia, Montenegro, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia and Slovakia, but there are more GEO’s yet to come.

We have been mentioning earlier importance and uniqueness of GEO’s Zetaniche is working with. Since dating niche is very competitive and over-populated for promoting, especially if you are new in affiliate marketing and you are maybe having concerns from where to start, possibility of promoting WhatsChat in low competitive GEO’s can help you to run this very competitive game.

Our low competitive GEO’s are giving affiliates who are working with various traffic sources possibility of working with cheaper traffic with relatively high payouts for mobile content and more possibilities for testing and optimization.

When it comes to direct site owners, since we are working in areas where audience haven’t been exposed to the variety of adult content ads, placing WhatsChat ads directly on your site will certainly be refreshment for your site audience, as something new and very easy to bring their attention to. This is why you won’t regret if you start promoting WhatsChat on your own local site.

What are the payouts?

Current WhatsChat pay-outs per GEO are:

 

Traffic sources, ad methods and landing pages

WhatsChat is working on desktop and mobile traffic both. Our premium SMS offer converts on all types of traffic, carrier and wifi. This means that user can be connected to a wifi over his laptop, tablet, or any other device and conversions will still be triggered, as long as he has mobile phone with him.

This is also very important from the perspective that we are offering our affiliates to monetize traffic that otherwise maybe would have been left unsold.

WhatsChat is adult related offer and our stats are showing that it is performing the best on adult and mature related content, no matter if you are working with various traffic sources, or you are willing to place WhatsChat ads on your own local adult site.

In case you are working with various traffic sources (adult ad networks, etc.), by testing our offer and collecting data, you will get the necessary knowledge where WhatsChat is performing the best and be able to easily optimize your campaign.

On the other hand, if you own adult related site, your advantage is that you already know your audience the best, how they are performing, how they respond on certain ads and what type of ads should be brought to their attention.

Mobile content offers are usually working on various ad methods, but when it comes to WhatsChat, at the moment we are offering promotion through banners and email, and it’s showing the best results.

*After you log into your Zetaniche account, choose and request WhatsChat offer, under the section “Do you want creatives for this offer” you can request creatives for WhatsChat.

When it comes to restrictions, we do not accept incent, push notification, SMS, Chat / IM traffic and there is no cashback.

To help our affiliates monetise their traffic and easier convert WhatsChat, we have built direct sales and pre-sell pages. We always suggest our affiliates to do the split test using direct and pre-sell pages, since as our stats are showing every day, we have seen them both working. Our landing pages are made in local languages for all GEO’s where WhatsChat is available for promotion.

Do we support SmartLink solution for WhatsChat?

Of course we do. Like with the rest of our offers, WhatsChat is not an exception, meaning that our affiliates can send non-targeted traffic for specific geo they have chosen for promotion. This means that they can send either desktop, tablet or mobile traffic and Zetaniche algorithm will detect device and display top performing presell pages for WhatsChat. We also have Smartlink solution where affiliates can send visitors to the best performing direct sales page in case they have more targeted visitors.

What are the advantages of promoting WhatsChat, premium SMS offer?

  • Easy conversion flow,
  • Possibility of monetising all traffic (both wifi and carrier),
  • Low competitive GEO’s and relatively high pay-outs,
  • Audience in GEO’s where WhatsChat is available for promotion haven’t been exposed to these kind of ads so much,
  • All landing pages are translated on local languages,
  • Usage of SmartLink solution.

This is pretty much it. We hope our WhatsChat product overview helped you in understanding huge potential you can experience with promoting our SMS premium offer in our low competitive GEO’s.

Not Zetaniche affiliate yet? Don’t worry – we are always open for new partnerships. JOIN our network today, request your premium SMS offer, select GEO where you want to promote WhatsChat and start earning some money!
