Yes!!! 4 figures in profits in a single day from promoting CPA offers using PPC traffic

I made $1,316.50 in revenue.

Here's my expense..



I used Yahoo PPC.

Keeping my fingers crossed for now... let's hope this continues...

    Now that's cool! PPC still works but you have to use non-Google PPC if you want to see a better ROI...

      Good work!,

      I am finding it interesting that there seems to be different demographics who use specific search engines for search.

      I've read where some products convert better in MSN and/or Yahoo than Google. Don't forget what you did and if it's successful, keep doing it.

      Regardless, ramp it up and keep testing would be my advice. Shoot for more big days.

      Hmmm... I don't even know why you would spit that out. Not true at all.

      Good luck bro
      This is a very easy conclusion: Too many newbies used Google Adwords and wasted a lot of money before they ever see income.

      MSN and Yahoo provides a cheaper avenue to 'learn' and 'make mistakes'.

      Google CAN give you a higher ROI but then the cost of reaching a high ROI can be expensive too. Or, you must be an expert in finding the right keywords.

    uhm...you know, this is pretty impressive? That's earnings for ONE day? I'd buy the WSO actually if there'd ever be one.

      now that i've hit 4 figs/day, i understand why the big timers are hesitant about revealing anything

          Great question.

          This is my first 4 figs/day

          I'll have to see how it performs today and in the future. But it should be fairly consistent though...haha...Will see...will see...

        Thanks all.

        There are 2 tips I'd share.

        First, use a landing page. Second, split test EVERYTHING, esp. your landing page & your offers.

        Hopefully this is consistent and I'll break 5 figures a day soon.

        I thought I was the top affiliate for the day but my AM tells me someone is doing 6 figures a day. *******! NVM... I'll reach that soon

        Your site looks great.

        Did you track the CTR through your landing page?

    Agreed that Yahoo and MSN are lower cost avenue for newbie to test on their campaign with lower cost. If the campaign fail, the amount of money one lost will also be lower compare to the same campaign at Google.

      Heck yeah man! I'm trying to master Yahoo for the past week so your post definitely inspired me! I appreciate you posting it.

      And I would also like to ask if anybody has good keyword tips for Yahoo. Here's why I ask...

      I used to start with advanced match but I would get those crappy impressions from Yahoo partner sites (even with content turned off) so I switched to standard match... and my impressions bit the dust.

      I am also trying to keep my keywords as relevant as possible so my list isn't huge yet. Is that where I'm going wrong?

      I appreciate any insights and again thanks for the kick butt story and keep it up!

    Quick question if you don't mind....

    Are you using pay per lead or free trial offers? Or something different all together? I am looking at expanding my CPA efforts and was wondering what works better.

    Thanks,

      I would be interested to know the type of offers as well. I do well with submits but have not had much luck with free trial offers yet. I'm sure there's a wrong ingredient somewhere. Just have to find it.

      Thanks for the inspiration as well.

        Conversely, I didn't have much luck with submits due to the scrubbing

    WOW... good work! What type of tracking are you doing? Do you use prosper202 for tracking or some other program.

    Do you use your own landing pages or do you take the landing page html code from the cpa offers and put that on your web site?

    Wish I could get anywhere near this level... I'd be happy with a couple hundred per day!

    Just one important thing for anyone about to rush out and copy Johnson.

    You NEED TO KNOW this...

    Remember, most PPC networks require settlement after 30 days.

    And many CPA networks don't pay out for 60 days.

    So, if you're spending $250 a day, like the OP is...you'd better make sure you can cover the $7,500 Ad spend for the first month...because it'll be another 30 days before you get your CPA cheque...

    Don't get burned, OK?

    Cheers,
    Steve

      Depending on the network you're working with, if you're doing anywhere close to my revenue per day, you can negotiate to be paid weekly

        Of course, but a lot of folks new to the game won't realise that until their PPC provider stings 'em with a "Pay Now or Goodbye Account" notice...

    i'd be interested in what your split-testing results are.

    Did you see better conversions with review sites as opposed to sales letters?
