Reasons are

* you could have gone with keywords which had very low traffic
* or you would have bid very low for those keywords.

With 7search you should bid at the first 3 positions to guarantee that you can receive clicks.

It doesn't matter how many impressions you have received may be your bid for a particular keyword which receives 1000000 impressions and 9000 clicks/ month is $0.01 while the 3rd position bid is $0.06 so don't expect to get traffic at any position below the 3rd one.

So as Naveen said you should edit your bid prices.

On the other hand, if you are already in the first 3 positions and have this low or 0 ctr then you should try any other ad copy than you're using and test out different ad copies and title variations to catch the visitor eye.

Also, you should pick keywords which receives clicks or have an estimated number of clicks per month in the 7search keyword suggestion tool because you can pick a keyword which receives 50,000 impressions per month but the 0 clicks or no 7search publishers selected this keyword within their websites (90% of 7search traffic comes from their publishers).

So the impressions issue is not a big deal.

Update
I increased my bid for all keywords and now I am on 1st rank for all keywords.Already got 3 clicks

My plan
I will remain on 1st position and will see which keyword converts well for this ad copy. And with the rest keywords I will keep changing ad copies until I see some good conversion rate

any suggestions on this ?

Thanks

Was it cheap? I have used cheap services in the past and found them to act in the same way. Lots of impressions and not a single click. Mine turned out to be pop-under traffic on dodgy sites and I learnt the hard way.

They are charging me only for Clicks not for impressions.So no harm to try them even if it comes from pops.Though I do have have option to block those sources who sending me junk traffic and can only accept traffic from clean sources.

You can pass the AFFID and RID into the second subid and then pass your own unique variable for your ad copy into the 3rd subid so you can see which ones are doing best for you.

Here is an example link:

peerfly.com/click.php?img=0&id=4805&pf=YOURPFID&subid=###KEYWO RD###&subid2=###AFFID###-###RID###&subid3=adcopy1

Obviously just change that last subid variable to whatever you want (campaign name is a good idea) and then you can track which ad copies are generating the most clicks/leads

I've heard that impressions on 7search are not really a reliable number to go by. Watching Gauher Chaudhry's video on 7search, he says that impressions are often counted for times when your ad isn't even shown, and says impressions are basically meaningless.

When I use 7search's KW tool, I see certain KWs that each have 100,000 monthly impressions. One might get 1000 clicks, and the other might get 2. This makes me think that Gauher might be right about impressions.

Just focus on making your ad copy appealing to attract more clicks.

I suggest you to Use adwords rather than 7search... no doubt adwords is costly but it will give you nice response and business.

I'm also dabbling with 7search right now and so far out of 6 campaigns, I only got 1 conversion.

I'm beginning to think that their traffic is really of low quality.

I agree with you and Gauher.There are 2-3 such keywords on which 7search kw tool says that I will only get 500-600 impression per month but see I got more than 1k impression for each keyword in 4-5 days.

I only say to believe on your own results and that you will only get after lot of testing

Yes Kannikuku ... I am thinking of same . I use PPC to see fast results & I think that I will only get from adwords.

Hello,
I think you should to re-keyword research about your targeted visitors. Do some changes in your Ads Placement. Try something different at ads placement with your current ads position. Surely you will get help from this.
Or you can cross check click report of 7Search.
Cheers

Thanks

The thing to always keep in mind is that 7Search receives 95% of it's traffic from our distribution network. These traffic partners of ours also have their own advertisers and will generally place the higher bidders first. We don't know what most all of our traffic partners advertisers are bidding so there isn't much of a way for us to suggest anything. What we do recommend is that you try to be at least in the top 3 on 7Search.com. If you can be #1 that will help too. Monitor the traffic and if you aren't receiving much perhaps you can look to increase the bids slightly to open new traffic sources.

Also, 7Search owns it own patented click fraud technology and uses it to block poor traffic sources our partners send to us. With that being said, you also can have the ability to block subid sources on your end. Email me for more information on this. (bstanley at 7search dot com)

With 7search you can be profitable but you must weed out those sites with irregular click patterns. They are easy to spot if you have tracking that collects the target, parter id, and rid id (Pivot tables work great!). You can block the bad guys and if a partner really gets out of control you can report them. 7search has been good about responding to these guys and refunding the click fraud.

Very true. Being able to analyze your traffic and blacklist bad performing sources is critical. If you need blacklisting setup on your account you can complete the form at the bottom of this post (it's not available by default).
