🚀 Ultimate Guide to Media Buying for Beginners: How to Drive Conversions with ELIXADS & Multi-Link Tools

Introduction to Media Buying for Beginners

Media buying is the process of purchasing advertising traffic online. For adult creators, it’s a game-changer—offering exposure to high-intent audiences that can turn into loyal fans. If you're new, the key is pairing quality popunder traffic with an effective pre-lander strategy.

Understanding the Role of Traffic in Conversions

Not all traffic is created equal. A targeted popunder ad leading to a warm, inviting pre-lander will always outperform direct linking. ELIXADS makes this possible by delivering adult-friendly popunder traffic that aligns with high-conversion behavior when properly funneled.

Introduction to ELIXADS for Adult Marketers

ELIXADS is a dedicated adult ad network that provides:

• Popunder Ads Only: Low-cost, high-volume ad format that opens behind user sessions.

• Device Targeting: Focus on iOS smartphone users for best results.

• Geo Targeting: Prioritize top-tier regions like the U.S. for maximum conversion potential.

Targeting U.S. + iOS + Smartphone traffic is the gold standard for adult campaigns using pre-landers.

Why Use Multi-Link Tools like Linktree and AllMyLinks?

A pre-lander is essential—it’s not optional. Without it, you won’t get conversions. Cold users from popunder ads don’t convert unless they’re first warmed up with context, visual cues, and persuasive calls to action.

That’s exactly what multi-link tools like Linktree, AllMyLinks, and GetAllMyLinks provide.

🔥 Why Pre-Landers Work:

• They Warm Up Cold Traffic: A pre-lander gives users a reason to care after being interrupted by a popunder ad.

• They Centralize Your Funnel: Combine your teaser media, CTAs, and subscription offers in one simple hub.

• They Boost Click Rates: Users are more likely to click the OnlyFans CTA after being primed.

• They Require No Design Skills: You can set up in minutes without coding.

• They Enable A/B Testing: Test different CTAs, thumbnails, or media easily.

Without a pre-lander, you’re just sending traffic into the void. With one, you’re building a funnel that guides users toward action.

Crafting Your First Pre-Lander

For Linktree:

• CTA Text: Use buttons like “🔓 Unlock My OnlyFans” or “💌 Message Me”

• Top Link: Promote urgency — e.g., “⏳ 24-Hour Special”

• Bio Line: “Top 1% Creator” or “10k+ Fans Join Me”

• Compliant Teaser Image: Safe-for-work but compelling

For AllMyLinks:

• Embedded Teaser Video: 5–10 seconds loop

Best Practices for Multi-Link Pre-Landers

• Keep 3–5 links max

• Use analytics to test:

  • Button color

  • Link order

  • Teaser media

How to Track OnlyFans Clicks Using Linktree + ELIXADS

Because OnlyFans doesn’t support external tracking, you can’t track who subscribes directly. But you can track who clicks the OnlyFans CTA button on your pre-lander—this is your conversion metric.

✅ Why It Matters

• CTA clicks = users most likely to convert

• Helps you optimize which pre-lander performs best

• Enables smarter ad spend decisions

🔧 Full S2S Setup

1. Send users to a tracker first

https://your-tracker.com/click?clickid={clickid}&redirect=https%3A%2F%2Flinktr.ee%2Fyourusername

2. Tracker logs click ID and redirects to Linktree

3. Set your OnlyFans button in Linktree to:

https://your-tracker.com/convert?clickid={click_id}

4. Your /convert script:

• Fires ELIXADS postback:

https://track.elixads.net/postback?pid=EtCxWS0LSu&clickid={click_id}

5. Done! Now ELIXADS records every CTA click as a conversion.

Leveraging Visual Teasers for Higher Click Rates

• Use compliant thumbnails or blurred screenshots

• In AllMyLinks, embed a looping teaser video

• Add reaction emojis or animated arrows pointing to CTA

Social Proof Strategies for Your Pre-Landers

• “👑 Top 0.5% OF Creator”

• “🔥 8,000+ Fans Can’t Be Wrong”

• User comments (if allowed)

• Use countdowns to add urgency

Platform Compliance: Staying Within Guidelines

• Linktree = no nudity, no explicit text

• Use phrases like:

  • “After-dark content”

  • “Unlock exclusive access”

• AllMyLinks = more adult-friendly but still follow general content safety guidelines

How to Use Analytics to Improve Campaign Performance

• Use ELIXADS dashboard to monitor:

  • CTR (Click-Through Rate)

  • CTA Clicks (your conversion metric)

  • Traffic zone performance

• A/B test different combinations of teaser, text, and button style

Optimizing CTAs for Engagement and Clicks

Try red or orange buttons for urgency; purple or gold for luxury feel.
