No surprise, Tier 1 includes the most attractive countries for an advertiser, <a href=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/what-is\/tier-2-countries\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Tier 2\">Tier 2<\/a> and 3 combine developing countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Economists classified three categories of countries: developed, developing, and third world. Their evaluation is based primarily on the economic development of the country. Affiliates divide countries into Tiers in a different manner. The focus was on the solvency of buyers and their average income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One more point was also important: <strong>online payment<\/strong>. At first, it was only available in highly developed countries like the USA, Canada, Western Europe, and Japan. Online payments and cards were a novelty in other countries, but affiliate marketing was flourishing there. There are now many payment methods available to almost every part of the world: credit cards, Internet banking, SMS payments, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also,&nbsp;<strong>the political situation<\/strong>&nbsp;influences getting into a particular group in the country and the&nbsp;<strong>peculiarities of its laws<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All these characteristics make it possible to divide countries into 3 main groups or Tiers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"955\" height=\"622\" src=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Tiers-1-2-3-countries-map-and-traffic-map-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22757\" srcset=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Tiers-1-2-3-countries-map-and-traffic-map-3.jpg 955w, https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Tiers-1-2-3-countries-map-and-traffic-map-3-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Tiers-1-2-3-countries-map-and-traffic-map-3-768x500.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 955px) 100vw, 955px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"> <em>\u0421lick to enlarge<\/em> <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n<div id=\"richads-button-block_a1bced2a8a15aac4a7f5e2356573309e\" class=\"richads-button-custom\">\n    <div class=\"row\" style=\"margin: 50px 0;\">\n        <div class=\"col-12 p-0 text-center\">\n            <a target=\"_blank\" \n                href=\"https:\/\/my.richads.com\/signup\" \n                class=\"text-center d-block rbtn rbtn-size-l rbtn-red\" \n                style=\"width: 100%;\" aria-label=\"Launch ads on RichAds&#8217; premium-quality traffic!\">\n                Launch ads on RichAds&#8217; premium-quality traffic!            <\/a>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center single-info-blue\">What is RichAds?<br>Ad network for telegram ads,<br>high quality push and popunder ads,<br>domain redirect, native and display traffic source,<br>buy push ads at $0.005 (CPC), pop ads at $0.5 (CPM),<br>domain ads costs start from $1.5 (CPM), native ads \u2014 from $0.001 (CPC),<br>ad network offers large volumes of traffic in more than 200 geos from Tier 3 to Tier 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Tier 1 countries traffic meaning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What is exactly means this Tier 1? Tier 1 countries are&nbsp;the most desired GEOs for advertising, while the most difficult to work with. Here are the largest payouts for offers, but the cost of&nbsp;<strong>attracting users<\/strong>&nbsp;is significant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Countries from<strong>&nbsp;Tier 1<\/strong>&nbsp;are the most desirable for affiliates.&nbsp;At first glance, making money here is easy. Payouts for offers are already very attractive, and the audience is the most solvent. It is&nbsp;heaven for launching betting and gambling on RevShare, or <a href=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/what-is\/cc-submit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"CC-Submit\">CC-Submit<\/a> offers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there\u2019s a major catch: it is hard to surprise the inhabitants of these countries. They may have already seen everything that you want to offer. As a rule, the population of these countries is not only difficult to attract with advertising. They know how to disable or ignore ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/tier-1-countries-traffic-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22671\" srcset=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/tier-1-countries-traffic-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/tier-1-countries-traffic-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/tier-1-countries-traffic-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/tier-1-countries-traffic.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Tier 1 has very high competition among advertisers.

This is partly true.&nbsp;Don\u2019t forget about European countries.&nbsp;Not everyone in Germany or France speaks English. Canada&nbsp;also&nbsp;has 2 national languages. When launching campaigns on such GEOs, it is worth running a split test of two different languages and optimizing the campaign based on the leader language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the characteristics of these regions is the value of personal data. Therefore, you can earn much more on Sweepstakes than in other locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-richads-blog wp-block-embed-richads-blog\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"gJXmDWpguf\"><a href=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/the-difference-between-tier-1-2-and-3-countries-in-affiliate-marketing\/\" aria-label=\"The difference between Tier 1, 2 and 3 countries in affiliate marketing\">The difference between Tier 1, 2 and 3 countries in affiliate marketing<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"&#8220;The difference between Tier 1, 2 and 3 countries in affiliate marketing&#8221; &#8212; RichAds Blog\" src=\"https:\/\/richads.com\/blog\/the-difference-between-tier-1-2-and-3-countries-in-affiliate-marketing\/embed\/#?secret=UOlSeQGeCc#?secret=gJXmDWpguf\" data-secret=\"gJXmDWpguf\" width=\"500\" height=\"282\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color\"> The list of countries from Tier 1 in affiliate marketing <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no single approved list of countries that fall into Tier 1, 2, and 3.

Affiliates should also consider the amount of traffic available in the region when selecting the country. The amount of traffic available in the region determines profits as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The traffic volumes of Tier 1 countries advertising networks are divided according to the devices they originate from. This information is vital for advertisers who launch mobile offers. If the offer is not tailored for a specific device, it will not be excessive to take into account volumes for desktops, mobiles, and tablets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>86% of RichAds push traffic comes from mobile devices. <br>Desktop traffic makes up 10%, while tablet traffic makes up 4%.
