Solo Ad Vendor Checklist: Questions Before You Order

Get the delivery terms in writing before paying for traffic.

Audience and permission

Do not request a seller’s individual subscribers’ addresses. A clear aggregated audience description and compliant consent practices matter more than a large unverified list-size claim.

What counts as fulfillment?

Offer fit and measurement

Google Analytics documents campaign parameters for distinguishing traffic sources and campaigns; see the GA4 campaign URL guide.

Commercial terms

Request written cancellation, refund, support, and under-delivery terms. A “traffic guarantee” may cover click volume without promising leads or sales. If an offer makes unusually strong income claims, request independently checkable evidence and avoid treating testimonials as typical results.

Next: estimate the campaign economics with solo-ad pricing and the calculator.

Copy-and-send questions for a shortlist

You can adapt this brief in an email: “I plan to promote [offer category] to people interested in [topic], targeting [named countries]. Do you accept the offer and landing page? What does one billable click mean in your system? Can you show an anonymized example report? How many days will delivery take? What is the remedy if the agreed qualifying count is short?” Keep the final quote and reply with your order record.

Evaluate the answers, not just their speed

Checks you perform yourself

Open your final page on a phone, submit the form using a test account, confirm that the promised resource arrives, and check that your analytics show the test event. Verify that your tracking URL does not reveal a subscriber email or other personal information. Keep a dated copy of the email creative and seller's written agreement so later changes are identifiable.

Make the decision explicit

Mark every requirement as confirmed, unconfirmed or disqualifying. “Unconfirmed” does not mean the seller is dishonest; it means you lack the information to compare the order fairly. If a seller cannot define a billable click or offer a clear resolution process, pause rather than treating the cheapest quote as sufficient. Continue with the small test-order guide and delivery definitions once the brief is complete.
