Subcultures and Traffic Arbitration

10.07.2022

Even 10 years ago, it was easy to advertise on the Internet. You specify gender, age and GEO, that's all, you don't need anything else. In 2022, everything is much more complicated - just specifying the basic parameters is not enough. In 2022, progressive youth strive for self-determination and self-expression. Hence a large number of different subcultures. An arbitrageur, if he wants to cover the entire available audience, must understand all youth trends and trends. Let's talk about what subcultures are on the Internet, how to drain traffic on them and what should be taken into account when filling.

Where to look for representatives of subcultures

Facebook is a record holder in terms of traffic and country coverage. The easiest way to find representatives of subcultures is to target them by setting up targeting by interests;

TikTok is a platform that is famous for the ability to quickly gain subscribers at a minimum cost;

Twitter is one of the favorite social networks among subcultures. The audience we need likes to speak out here very much, considering Twitter a free platform for communication, where they are not oppressed for their own point of view if it contradicts the generally accepted opinion regarding some topics and things;

Tinder, Snapchat and other foreign social networks, especially popular among American and European youth, are also suitable for such a target audience.

Why does an arbitrageur need subcultures

Subcultures are a promising audience and that's why:
Enhanced loyalty - if they see that a brand or a specific advertiser shows loyalty to them, they feel understanding and acceptance of their culture, so they actively respond to ads, recommend the product to friends and support it in every possible way;

A clear selection of the desired segment of the target audience - if you configure it correctly, you can know for sure that you have hit;

Cheapness of leads - representatives of subcultures - young people who are not considered a particularly solvent audience, but in vain, if they are interested in the target audience correctly, they are able to spend a lot of money.
