Well done. It's all about working hard for your dollar. Good to see how quick you've come in such a short time. I expect that now you're making a lot more.

Again, I was lucky enough to have a friend who funded me, I even had to borrow a bit from my parents...when the opportunity is there you have to take it. It was risky but paid off...I had all cards maxed, no money in the bank, and I had borrowed 35,000. Fun stuff...and scary. | |

I prefer to run ads on facebook, the targeting is great and the traffic is almost limitless. Which means it's possible to scale. I'd test stuff on FB with really tight demographic and keyword targeting...go for high ROI and low spend to start. All the big guys do low targeting with big spend but ROI is usualy a bit tighter (but more profit overall). Let it run long enough...its hard to say really...I've ran an add in the evening and spent $200 with no sales....ran the same ad the next morning and it was 100% ROI or somewhere around there....and it stayed like that...you just never know....go with your gut. | |

| Not at all...of course you till can....just be ready...have credit available to use on a ALREADY PROFITABLE campaign... Also...if you find a offer that's working for you...and you're running out of money...tell the network...they will give you better terms The network I was working with was paying me 2x a week just so I could keep paying my bills!!!! There is always a way... |

Joel, thanks for wasting the last hour of my time reading this whole dang thread. JUST KIDDING! Great thread. Really really valuable information. Thanks, thanks thanks! Hope you keep this going. Reminds of years ago, when I was into commodity trading and a guy with a ton of experience had a huge thread going on a forum that I don't even think exists anymore and taught all us newbies a ton of stuff. It was great. This thread is starting to remind of that. All the best, Rick |

Hello joelraitt and everybody, I am newbai and thanks for discussing this good topic, helped me a lot, ![]() Can any one tell me what is zilch, rebills. Also I got approved by GoOffers - anybody tell me is it good site. Also tell me meaning of - (No incentivized traffic is allowed) ![]() what is traking URL, is it same through which i am going to advertise and get paid. what is impression pixel? is it necessory to add? what is conversion URL / pixel? Is that code is require? Each page of detail offer includes following data which is I am not able to understand. data is........... Add third-party conversion tracking pixels and postback URLs below. The system will dynamically replace several optional variables. Add New Conversion Pixels / URL Type: java / html / image HTML or JavaScript Code for Client (Cookie) Tracking. Add Image Pixel: Plus there are lot of operational variables. Hope my question will answer sombody by tommrow and then I might start my 1st CPA campain start within two days!, let's see what happens. ![]() Thanks |

Can any one tell me what is zilch, rebills. - A) rebills = continuous payments (sometimes without people knowing) Also I got approved by GoOffers - anybody tell me is it good site. A) never worked with them Also tell me meaning of - (No incentivized traffic is allowed) A) it means you cant give the user any 'extra' reason to fill out the offer what is traking URL, is it same through which i am going to advertise and get paid. A) Yah, but sometimes people hide or cloak the URL's what is impression pixel? is it necessory to add? a) I dont use it ever what is conversion URL / pixel? Is that code is require? A) the pixel needs to be placed on the network end to make sure it tracks the conversions. Not sure what you mean by tracking URL / convertion URL. Ask your affiliate manager. Each page of detail offer includes following data which is I am not able to understand. data is........... A) I find the data on offers somewhat useless. EPC (earnings per click) isn't accurate...maybe they are not using a landing page, maybe they are sending ****ty low cost traffic so conversions look low... | |

Just thought of this little question i ask my aff managers that makes a big difference... Everyone always asks... " whats the hot offer, or whats doing really well?" i guess in hope of copying them...or something? Bad idea...all the $$$$ is made in being the first. Ask your AM - What do you really think could work on (your traffic source here) that not enough people have tested yet? Now that gets their brain and yours going in the direction of huge success! |

Yah Jason is right...well technically advertising cost in that way is considered cost of goods sold in this scenario.

Hello! It's so nice hearing all this earnings, it gave me more courage to invest more time in front of my computer. I hope all PPC can can be that generous. But anyway, great share back there! Congratulations! |

Whare are some great PPC sites for cheap clicks? That actually deliver traffic. I'm trying to stay away from the big ones like AdWords and Facebook. Clicks are just too expensive. I tried POF with tight demographics but still spent more than I made.

Great thread and congrats on your success... A couple of questions - When you started you said that you tried 2 different lp's . Did you notice a big difference in conversions between the 2? How important were the landing pages to your success? And were you running the campaigns continuously or just at specific times of the day? |

yeah I like this post because it brings out so many different opinions. I always laugh when I see these claims about making huge amounts of money in a month. Usually if it's done via PPC then they have spent a ton of dough to make that big money. So yeah as someone said in post above, then net revenue is all that matters. The profit or the net result is what you have to spend. Of course you also have to factor in the tax portion too. But yeah making $50k in a month can be done via PPC, but how much did it cost you in ad spend to make that? $25K spent, so a decent return eh? Doubling your money is very nice. But the problem exists when you want to repeat that same figure the next month. Spend another $25 k? If you do, then you just spent your profit from previous month. So you must go into this game understanding the ROI (return on investment), and then once you find the winners, you scale it up. To me, spending $3k and making $10k is a much better return and I can do that all month long with PPC. |

You're post was kind of confusing... so you would rather spend 3k and earn 10k for 7k profit and a ROI over 200% than spend 25k and bring in 50k for 25k profit...or a 100% ROI? To me that's just plain dumb. ROI doesn't really matter...profit does. I don't get your comment about the next month spending all the profits of 25k...spending that 25k would bring in the same 50k...earning you another 25k that month, or 50k profit total... Why does the problem exist when you want to repeat it? You don't think you can keep doing it? I'm confused man... | |

How did you create the LP's - Were you using some kind of software or did you have them made for you?

You should get your mind out of this `software` bull crap - make your own LP's until you make enough to hire it out...then at least you can make small tweeks to the LP's you have made...saves time more then anything. Good luck! Anyone else have any questions?!?!? | |

Also, when starting your ads in Facebook, where do you set your CPC bid given Facebook's suggested range? For example, if they suggest 0.48-1.07, what would you bid when first submitting the ad? I am very new to this, but on my 2nd day I created a profitable campaign that generated a few hundred dollars...however I could not figure out how to draw more traffic and scale up the volume even though I had the money available to do it. When I submit new ads, it seems like they get a reach of only a few hundred people and then stall out, not getting shown very much after that. What am I missing? Great thread... | |

I always like to bid at the top of the sug or above to start, giving the ad the top spot and hopefully a better CTR. What do you have your daily budget set at? Try increasing that? It's a lot about testing man, keep inceasing bids till you get traffic! Nice work! | |

| Or sometimes you can just go files save as, webpage...then use the files in dreamweaver and make the edits you want. Or what I do is just hire someone to make a copy of the page with an easy to edit images, bullet points, headline...or w/e i want on the page...I just show them the offer page so then they know to base everything off that!

Yes PPC can have you going from $5k to $400k a month....yes I know someone who sat in front of his computer and didn't stop until he mastered adwords...people give up too easily...he is now doing $400k a month by just using adwords...its all relative...$400k in a month might be a bad month for some people...it's all about what your making now....You may think $10k a month is such a huge amount..but once you start making that every month...it because average for you..then you make a new goal...ask me how I know |

Hey Joel, Congratulations on your huge success. I was also riding the same success as you up until last December (a few months ago). I was making about $25k a month on average for the past 2 years. All from 1 site. It wasn't CPA or CPL. It was a combination of PPC, SEO and was making money via Adsense and CPM. And I had a full time job, so the $25k was all money for my savings account. So now I want to get into the CPA business. I agree with your theory on mentors and having good partners that can give you ideas and possibly even money (if needed). I know some people that are making over $100k a month with PPC and CPA currently. But these guys are hard workers, and are usually up at 3am working non stop till night time. Feels like I'm back at step 1 because I need to learn new techniques again. What was once working for me has dried out (only making about $5k in profit now/Mo) . But the good thing is that I have quite alot of money that I can invest for testing purposes and then finally for marketing. Thanks for the info that you've supplied in this thread. |

It happens to everyone in this industry, you hit something thats working and eventually it dies...then the doubt kicks in...did I fluke out? Can I do it again? Just keep working and think about what made your stuff work before, you'll get back there or even bigger in no time. As you find new ways to make money you become more rounded and confident that no matter what happens you can make money - which is true. Later man! | |
