I've used MIVA and had one Clickbank sale for $34 in just over 200 clicks in the male enhancement niche.

Has anyone else had success using MIVA?

  • I have used MIVA and 7search before. One thing is that they have very cheap CPC. The trade-off is that you will not be having high conversion. The traffic is not very targeted.

      Notice: 7search has been sending crap traffic for the past month now, stay away for a good while

        Hello TheRazor55, thank you for your feedback. It is used to positively affect our advertisers in the future. 7Search.com works with over 600 partners who make up our Distribution Network. Together we are generating over 3.5 billion searches. 7Search.com owns a patented technology which allows us to monitor and validate each source of that traffic to ensure it is click fraud free and that it originates from English speaking countries as well as being of an organic source meaning we eliminate the incentivized, roboticized and mechanized traffic. We also look to credit advertisers back when there is an instance where there has been poor traffic noted.

        We admittedly only allow for Country to Country geo targeting but also work with our clients to help them understand how to better optimize their campaigns and be sure they understand our UI. If I could be of any help in addressing questions it would be my pleasure to do so. Feel free to reach me any time at bstanley at 7search dot com. Many Thanks.

    I have used Miva before and spent some money on their PPC on what I believed to be a very good sales copy of a site I am affiliated for and sending customers to. After 500+ clicks, not even 1 conversion.

    Cheaper yes, traffic quality is absolutely horrible.

      It is horrible if you dont change the matching options to smart, or whatever they call it

      point is, I'm sure you were running broad match, hence getting **** loads of crap traffic for kws that have nothing to do with what you typed in. (they sent me lots of dead inventory too)

    If they provides good amount of traffic on the website but not the relevant then we should not move further to take another acct. Its better to spend on SEO rather than MIVA PPC

    I think one sale for about 200 clicks is not too bad. But i myself prefer Google adwords for advertising. The traffic your get from adwords is more targeted and can be converted to sale and money easily. After adwords, i use Adbrite and Bidvertiser as alternatives.

    Yes, I've used Miva PPC. Though, traffic is not so relevant but it is good for a Product based website.

    I didn't see much from Miva. Also had my credit card charged without first authorizing it with me (as I was not setup on automatic replenishment). Maybe if you take the time to really dig, you might be able to convert some traffic, but to me, it was more of a waste of time/money.
