MY CAMPAIGN

Look forward to hearing more Alex!


Good Luck

It seems interesting. Really look for to hearing from you, Alex.

I do think "GUARANTEED" will get you into trouble as long as you offer really good information.

~ Omid

Don't you think it's too competitive? Hope you got luck Alex.

Learn from mistakes!

I have been getting conversions here and there with my lander (even with almost 3 months of not working at all I still got conversions).. I also checked the competition and honestly I couldn't really find anything...

so check it out.. I funded my account with $25 bucks.. I called them and said i was told i would be getting the promo and she tells me I will be getting more than that...

So I deposited $25 of my own but my current balance is $75

I made my daily budget $10 just to get comfortable with their user platform and I will go big if I start getting converrsions!!

Hi Alex,

Really eager to see your results .

Make also sure to first build a relationship with your subscriber , before you send them any promotions .

I hope that using "GUARANTEED" will not get me into any trouble.. will it?

Alex,

I don't about using Guaranteed but I found this that might share some light.

FTC Cracking Down on Testimonials: What Affiliates MUST Know

Are you guys able to choose the sites where the ads be displayed at, and the demographics? Can you get some good valume with 7search, I was going to run the campgains with them as well but read to many neg post about them.. ?

so i found out that there is a 3 to 5 hour delay with their updates of the stats.... sucks :/

Looking at my stats from my network, I can already tell that it is not going well. 1 click and 0 conversions is not a good sign....

I will see my stats and think about what I should change.. I will update you guys once I get there.

Nice thread.
following you.
Try somthing with adwords.

Does 7search allow is contextual or banner type of network? How did it go so far, made any money? Have you look at the advertising.com, trying to run a campgain there, but they got all this rules just like google, not liking it..

My experience with 7search is that broad keywords are the way to go. Their traffic is limited, so in order for it to even be worth your time you have to find a way to make less targeted traffic convert. Bid relatively close to the top bid as they will charge you what you bid, and don't be afraid to buy expensive keywords. That usually means that they convert. Longtails will of course convert a little bit better, but if you're getting only 10 clicks a day you aren't exactly building a business :/ In some aspects, they are the exact opposite of Adwords, so don't go in with your mind already made up about how the platform works.

GL

I'll also chime in and say the good thing about 7search is that you can see what your competition is doing and what their bidding... keep an eye out for how long they are buying the spots for and replicate, if their paying $0.50 for top keywords it must be doing something for them!! Be the sheep

So it looks like this is a fail moment...

I "launched" the campaign at 10 or 11 this morning, I just came back from work and there is "no data to display"

I'm guessing I didn't actually launch my campaign... (SIGH)

I will launch launch my campaign tonight

Alex...great idea, and best of luck. I don't do PPC but would with 7search since their prices are so reasonable, but I've read so many mixed reviews regarding them...a particularly disturbing one about hits coming from nonexistent domains, which maybe I shouldn't even mention because I have no idea of its validity...just something I read. I am extremely interested in following this thread though. Free traffic is great but if you can truly master PPC (which I never have, but always wanted to) I think you've got it made.

I would suggest you stick with one idea. Do not jump around because it did not work this time. Trust me that is very unproductive in the long run. Learn from your mistakes and try again.

I will definetly stick to promoting with my lander.. I want to see if this campaign will at least get a click... I don't understand if my primary campaign is live or not... So I will test this one to see if it goes live.. If it does then I know my primary one is also live..

wow... does this seem fishy to you:

I set up my email/zip submit like 4 minutes ago and I already have 31 clicks and 0 conversions....

is this normal?

Interesting thread, I am following closely because I also want to launch a zip/email submit with 7 search. All the best Alex.

keep updates!

Your wasteing your time with 7Search.. who the heck uses that anyways?
Do you every go to 7Search?

No, you go to Google, Yahoo or MSN or Bing.

That's where the money is.

Look more at the impressions and follow a formula....if you get 2500 impressions and no clicks wait till you get 6000 impressions, if at 6000 and no clicks pause the ad and try another title or something.

Zips tend to work better for 7search, good look :-)

Alright thanks guys,

So I just checked my stats and I have 2 clicks and I got 2 subscribers...

Unfortuanely I don't know how to track and find the referring websites

Jay I think your right but testing is key. I have heard alot of good success stories from people using 7search.. I heard they are good for beginners.

Here is what I did...

I funded my account with 25, I then emailed them saying I forgot to put in the code and right after I gave them a call asking for it.. I was told I would receive the hook from John.. Try doing what I did.. Call them and say John said I would he getting this promo..

So I have 4 new subscribers along with 4 clicks, still 0 conversions..

If I were running an email/zip submit with these same results without a lander then I would have 4 conversions...

Let's see what happens at the end of the day and we will see what we can change...

UPDATE:

So I have 11 clicks and 1,020 impressions on 7search.. My balance went from 75 to 64.

I now have a total of 7 new subscribers and 6 clicks on my network, 0 conversions..

Honestly I am not surprised by these results... Let's see what I can change to see if it will run better...

Check back soon!

Looking at the info vinchenz has given me, I think he make a really good point here.

I will continue running my current campaign and see how it goes...

I have made the following changes to my campaign:

Title is now: "Want To Make Money From Home?"
Description is now: "You can quit your day job Now because in this new *program you Will learn how to make thousands from the comfort of your own home! FREE!

And I have deleted 45 keywords which haven't even gotten a single impression..

My display URL is: http://www.mylander.com/limited-time-free-trial
And my destination URL is obviously my landing page..

Well, let's see how this goes... I need to catch up on my sleep...

Wish me luck!!

@naveen192
@Alex Arseniy
Thanks guys for the 7search promo code info.

@Vinchenz - Very helpful info. It's all about doing a research on your traffic sources to select the right offer for the dominant demographic.

I've been following this thread, good job tweaking, keep at it and you'll find the right formula soon. I have actually learned a few things from this thread so thanks

I believe you can direct link with 7search... Google is tough on affiliates...

Hey Alex - it sounds like you're actually have a moderate amount of success - I may be misreading the thread but it sounds like most visitors clicking your add are also opting in to your list? That's free traffic later on which is killer.

This is really good thread - thanks for posting!

True but the majority of my subscribers unsubscribe...

I need to change around my email series and tweak that too...

UPDATE:

So I got 1 conversion in the morning and few subscribers.. The rest of the day was dead... I have spent a total of $10 on this campaign and made $3.70 back...

Not exactly what I was hoping for but still 1 is better than nothing.. I still have a balance of $60 left so this campaign shall continue!

I will see what I can change and I will keep you posted..

Thanks for keeping us up to date

I have 21 subscribers

I will let my campaign run for today because I have church today (right now) and overall too busy untill tonight...

When I tweak my AD I will keep you posted

I just got one more conversion

I have spent $12 on my campaign and I made over $7 back... So if I get 1 more conversion I will almost break even!!

I'm excited right now.. I am stepping up my email series and I decidedto start writing articles again since I am still getting occasional traffic from them after months of not writing...

Wish me luck!!!

UPDATE:

I looked at my keywords and a lot of them are getting impressions, only 1 of my keywords are getting all the clicks.

So I have raised the bid on that keyword from .50 to .52 which makes me the highest bidder on that keyword.

I have also changed my title to: "want to make over 6 figures a year?"
And my description is now: "find out how you can generate a stable income while sitting where you are now. Free for a limited time!"

Let's see how it runs..

That's great news, Alex. I can see that you're on the right path and you're doing very well.

Best of luck!

Keep it up! Good luck with the email marketing- that is where a lot of the big boys make the real money.

Thanks guys!

Alright so today was dead.. I got clicks on my ad and lost some more money.. I now have spent $17 to get $7 back...

I have currently a total of 25 subscribers that are still subscribed and 6 people who unsubscribed.. Grand total of 31...

I think that all of my subscribers are ignoring my emails because the whole time I had my email series set up I have not gotten a single click from anybody through the emails... For my niche 7search is definitely not the best traffic source...

I amdeciding whether I should continue running this campaign or try an email/zip submit since I heard they conver a lot better..

My total cost for this campaign is $17 and I have 33 clicks
And my total cost for the mini test campaign I ran with an email/zip submit offer has a total of 31 clicks and I only spent $3.41

What do you think?

Try a good email submit to see if your ROI increases so you dont keep losing money and find a winner from there. What niche are you thinking about if you do email submit?

I was thinking coupons would be a good idea...

An owner of a network told me that it is the best converting niche at this time...

UPDATE:

So I was just asked to join a private network in which I did so I will be changing some things around...

I will be promoting an email/zip submit coupon offer which I was told converts at 30% right now...

I will keep you guys posted

in my epxerience running zip submits offers is terrible, had over 100 clicks and only 1 conversion, nothing but loosing money..

Was it your first time doing ppc?

It's a good idea because you can overlook how your competitors are doing.

UPDATE:

I have paused my campaign for now.

I will research some different keywords and we will see if it runs any better.

I have spent $20 and have $51 left.. It's still not over

I will update you guys once I get those new keywords

I have had my greatest sucess with 7Search. It is a powerful search engine for the money. I suggestion on your email/zips---tight up your Ad description make sure you take to stay away from "tire kickers" just looking out of curiousity. That costs you; so eliminate them by making sure people know exactly what you want them to do!

Thanks rogbog.. That's useful information...

I will let you guys know what I will do

has anyone really had any success with zip/email submits, on one of the simle form of free give aways over 600 clicks and only 1 lead.. pretty bad.. had others running with no conversions at all

Downloads might be a good idea but a lot of people are aware of the spam that leads on after that...

But still you gave me a good idea

Can someone please tell me how they had success running zip/email submits? I mean I've tried targetting keywords that are 100% related and direct and still had no success, had 1 conversion out of 100 clicks, which is just terrible, spend more money then made.. its only pennies but if you guys got conversion rate at 20/30% then its possible to make some good money, COPEAC Steve I'm one of your affiliates if you could help me out I'll run your offers, thanks!

Hey guys sorry about not posting... I had to work the past few days at taco bell till 3 am
I will try to get some work done tomorrow or Monday..

I will keep you posted!

I checked my aweber reports and I found out nobody is even opening my emails...

Very dissapointing

Since only one keyword is getting clicks, I will research some different keywords and see how that goes after I make my campaign active again

UPDATE:

I used the 7search keyword tool and I have added more keywords.. Here are all of them:

Title: How To Make Money Online
Description: Secret underground industry is on the rise. Learn how you can make hundreds from the comfort of your own home! Free!

Let's see how this one goes...

Subscribing. Nice Thread!

Good luck Buddy, pretty sure you will do well, just keep at it

So I got 30 clicks and spent about $4 bucks..

My cpc is 14 cents.. Not bad when my bids are at .30 cents and up to .50 cents

Unfortunately I got 0 subscribers and 0 clicks on any offers... Disappointing? Yes
Will I continue? Definitely I still have $40 bucks left to test

UPDATE:

So it's the end of the day and the results are the usual...

I got 2 subscribers, 1 click on an offer, and 0 conversions...

I have spent $8 dollars today to get 37 clicks on my ad.

My cpc today is 0.23 cents... I have a total of 31 subscribers and none of them have un-subscribed yet...

I just checked how many people have opened my emails and there are people opening them...

I'm not sure what I should do... I will continue writing articles but I don't know what to do with my 7search campaign...

I will have to think about it.. If you guys have any suggestions feel free to post!

Interesting to see how your campaign is going. The important thing is to remember it is a step by step journey, and the results shall be only judged properly in the long run. Am also running a 'recruit' campaign for my blog for a newsletter i am working to circulate in a short while.

So I have decided to conclude this campaign...

According to my experience, my niche is not a good one for the traffic that 7search provides... I think that normally I would at least get double the clicks every day...

7search I think is better for email submits... I have gotten about 37 subscribers and if I were direct linking to an offer, I would have gotten probably about just the same amount of conversions instead of subscribers...

I got these subscribers now so hopefully I can get something out of that

Hope you all the best!!

yup 7 search is a good network too..

google just wants high quality not that they dont like affilaites.

if u give them high quality they will be more than happy to promote your stuff..

so get a good landing page with rich content and you are good to go.

Very nice - I had fun following your journey!

excellent, has given us all an insight into 7search here.

Thanks

i think it will be more competitive ...dont try to get some new thing which has low competitive...

Great run Alex and best of luck in the future!


CHAD

Thanks Chad

what does "cf" stand for in the 7search keywords?

This is quite interesting
