Your latest campaign just hit a wall. Same old creatives getting ignored, click-through rates dropping, and that sinking feeling returns. Ad fatigue strikes every marketer, but what if you could find winning ads in minutes instead of weeks?
AdPlexity changes how you approach creative inspiration by showing exactly what works across thousands of campaigns. No more guessing games or expensive failed tests. Our ad intelligence platform reveals successful creatives from top performers, giving you proven formulas for your next breakthrough.
Stop recycling tired concepts when fresh, high-converting ideas wait at your fingertips. Your competition already knows—now it’s your turn.
Why Your Ads Are Fading Fast
If your campaign performance is dropping, ad fatigue is the likely culprit. It happens when your audience sees your ad so many times they start ignoring it. The result? Click rates plummet, and your return on investment (ROI) vanishes.
Many marketers try to solve this with endless A/B testing, but that approach burns through time and money. You’re essentially throwing ideas at a wall, hoping something sticks. In the fast-paced world of online advertising, this guesswork is a luxury you can’t afford.
This is where spying on your competition comes in handy. It’s not about blindly copying what others are doing. It’s about smart reconnaissance. By seeing what’s already working for others, you can understand the principles behind successful ads, identify profitable angles, and find inspiration backed by real-world data.
You get to skip the costly trial-and-error phase and jump straight to testing ideas that have a proven track record.

The “Inspiration in Minutes” Method: A Step-by-Step Guide
Follow this simple process to turn competitive data into actionable ideas.
Step 1: Pick Your Playground (Choose a Module)
First, decide which AdPlexity module fits your campaign.
- Running offers that need a quick, direct response? AdPlexity Push is your best bet.
- Promoting content-style offers or products that need a softer sell? Head over to AdPlexity Native.
- If video is your game, AdPlexity YouTube will show you exactly what video ads are converting for others.
Your choice of module sets the stage for the kind of inspiration you’ll find.
Step 2: Kick Off Your Search (Keywords & Advertisers)
Once inside a module, you have several ways to start your search.
- Keyword Search: This is the most straightforward method. You can search for keywords that appear in the ad copy or on the landing page. For example, if you’re in the sweepstakes niche, searching for “Contest” could reveal dozens of currently running ads. This is perfect for getting a broad look at what’s happening in your vertical.
- Advertiser Search: Know who your top competitors are? Use this feature to see every campaign they’re running. You can search by landing page URL or even dig into the redirect chains to see the entire funnel.
- Publisher Search: Want to see all the ads running on a specific website? The publisher search lets you do just that, giving you an idea of what kind of offers perform well on certain sites.
Step 3: Filter Down to the Gold
A broad search gives you a lot of data, but the real magic is in the filters. AdPlexity’s filtering options are incredibly powerful, letting you slice and dice the results to find exactly what you need.
Key filters you should use:
- Days Running: This is arguably the most important filter. Ads that have been running for a long time (e.g., 30+ days) are almost always profitable. Sort by “longest running” to see campaigns that have stood the test of time.
- Country, Device, & Carrier: See what’s working in specific countries or on certain devices The carrier filter is a secret weapon, letting you find hidden campaigns that are only shown to users on specific mobile networks.
- Affiliate Network: This filter shows you ads promoting offers from specific affiliate networks like ClickBank or ClickDealer. It’s a great way to find offers that are already making money for other affiliates.
- Traffic Source: See where your competitors are buying their traffic. You might discover new, untapped ad networks with less competition and lower costs.
- AI-Powered Niches: AdPlexity’s AI can instantly sort ads into over 40 specific niches, like finance or health. This lets you quickly find relevant campaigns without having to sift through unrelated content.
Step 4: Deconstruct the Winners
Once you’ve found a few promising campaigns, it’s time to break them down to understand why they work.
Analyse the Creatives: Don’t just look at an ad; study its components.
- Icons and Images: In push and native ads, bright colours like red and orange tend to grab attention. Emotional imagery, especially faces, also performs well.
- Headlines and Copy: Look for patterns. Are competitors using questions to create curiosity? Are they using strong calls to action? Questions often outperform statements because they engage the user’s mind.
- Emojis: Don’t underestimate them! Emojis can make an ad feel more personal and have been shown to boost click-through rates, especially in push ads.
Download the Landing Page: This is where AdPlexity truly shines. Instead of just showing you a screenshot, AdPlexity lets you download the entire landing page with a single click—including all the images, scripts, and CSS files.
This gives you a complete picture of your competitor’s funnel. You can see how they structure their page, what kind of copy they use, and how they guide the user towards the conversion. You get to study high-converting landing pages and borrow ideas to improve your own.
Smart Spying: It’s Not About Blind Copying
Using an ad spy tool is a game-changer, but many affiliates make critical mistakes that hold them back. To get the most out of AdPlexity, avoid these common traps:
The Mistake: Blind Copying. Directly ripping a competitor’s campaign is a recipe for failures. You don’t have their exact data, their pixel, or their optimization strategy.
The Solution: Focus on the principles. What angle are they using? What emotions are they tapping into? What makes their landing page persuasive? Identify the patterns and adapt them to your own unique style.
The Mistake: Chasing New Ads. Many people focus only on the newest ads they can find, ignoring campaigns that have been running for a while.
The Solution: Prioritize long-running ads. An ad that has been active for weeks or months has proven its profitability. These are the goldmines you should be studying.
The Mistake: Analysis Paralysis. It’s easy to get lost in research and never actually launch anything.
The Solution: Set a time limit for your research. Your goal is to find a few actionable ideas, not to map out the entire advertising universe. Grab your inspiration and move quickly to testing.
