      since i got slapped up by google, right now i am using microsoft adcentre, traffic is coming in very slow i have to say even though i have chucked loads of relevant targeted keywords.

      thinking of going to yahoo ads aswell.

        Why don't you try some article marketing to drive traffic to your CPA offers? It can work wonders when done correctly.

          Article marketing is great, I agree. I do article marketing daily, managed to achieve Expert status in loads of directories. So my articles' RSS is sent out to feeds first thing.... Also every article I publish I put on my wordpress blog, and if you target great keywords (good tags) you will realize loads of free targeted traffic will come to your links.
          Here's a story: 3 days ago I published an article and put it on my blog as usual. I was so tired that although I realized the formatting was awful and the lines were on the menu bar (Opps) I didn't bother fixing it, saying: Who the hell would read it on a Sunday night anyway?
          By the morning I had 40-40 clicks and 2 sales. Yahoo and Google were working for me FREE.
          Forget PPC, unless you're very rich!

          Definitely do Article marketing!

    Hah, I remember my first commission, was sooo excited.

    Now whatever you did, rinse and repeat a thousand times and let me know in a few weeks when you are doing $5000 per day! haha

    But seriosuly, work on whatever brought in that conversion. Scale it up, rinse and repeat, do whatever it takes to keep them coming and keep them coming even bigger.

    Hah Terry, yeah, you need to start somewhere right!

    If you did 70 once, it is def possible to do it tomorrow and the day after. And then once that becomes autopilot, you build another stream and another and another. No you have 4 streams and are earning a few hundred per day.

    Keep up the fantastic work...its exciting right!

      Congrats man! I too remember the first time I made my first conversion on a CPA offer. I was like WOOOHOOOO!!!!

      However, I got lazy and thought that the commissions will continue to go and I never had to worry about my budget on my advertising. What a mistake!

      Keep the good vibes going, continue the rythm and keep working.

      It is easy to just get lazy when the money is rolling. So my suggestion is to always diversify. Network with other affiliates of the hottest trends.
      2 routes on marketing to continue to try different offers or keep honing your skills on a particular vertical/ offer.

      So if you only focus on diet offers. Keep testing to see what converts and expand and expand what works.

      Once you are amazing on that niche, anytime you talk to a network tell them I can scale any offer on diet. So only pitch me diet.

      I do a recommend learning a lot of traffic sources, because the more you know the more you can make money marketing.

      Cheers and again Congrats!

          But pretty amazing if you think about it. I think she saw 1300% growth rate or something, so I just thought it would be fun to put that into excel and see how long it would take to be a millionaire and billionaire if that growth was constant. Obviously it wont be though, unfortunately.

          ok, my idea of fun is a little twisted and nerdy...whatev

    My first affiliate commission with CPA was around $9 if I wasn't mistaken.

    Did you learn all about CPA on your own or you got someone else to teach you how to do all these? I took the short cut path

        Congrats,

        What are you spending to make this money?

        If you are spending $80 to make $70... hmmm, not good.

        If you spending $60 to make $70, still not great, but it IS a clear profit and can hopefully be scaled up by removing any daily limits.

        My point is, many people (especially those new to IM) fall into the dangerous trap of paying for traffic to an offer and only looking at the sales. They see a $10 sale and get excited, ignoring the fact that it took 20 clicks at $0.75 per click to get that $10 sale.

        I must admit that I fell into this trap myself a while back. My exhilaration was short-lived when I finally looked at the books and realized that I had taken a small loss on the whole project. Oh well... live and learn.

        Don't take your eye off of the ball. Monitor, test, and monitor some more. Learn to use Prosper 202, or some other tool for tracking. Always make sure you are in the clear on your ads. Good luck.

            Hey, congratulations on your success so far.

            Just one thing: the stats you refer to above are they different in relation to the project you were referring to when you started the thread? It's just that you mentioned your Copeac account in the OP, and now these stats are referring to Clickbank. I assumed one was CPA, whilst the other was affiliate marketing.

    Congratulations man, i also had the same story but with neveblue. I remember have to be contacted with them and i didn't know what to say. And then i tried many things. Now i spend a lot on advertising and netting around 3k with multiple offers on one network.

    Keep ya head up=)
