I mastered dating niche and I get good income from that but I always love to see what others do, test their methods and that's why I register on Greed Report.
I highly recommend to register, spend $10 miserable bucks and get valuable info from that site that can multiply your earnings.

What I love to read is case study because it gives you some valuable data you can test by yourself on your campaign.

When it comes to dating niche I use LeadImpact PPV, Facebook CPM and 7 search PPC.

Most of the success I have with Facebook CPM and also from my special cross fire technique that I mastered few years ago, learned from Ryan Moran and his program "Spacebankers" that was my first touch with social media.

Thanks Viasq! Thats the plan, Test --> Tighten --> Expand! Also im born and raised in Cali, so Cali luv!

Yah, Mediatraffic is a little tricky thus far, i had no action so i decided to test, and blew $20 on very stupid, amatuer mistakes on my part. Going to try and make a habit of double checking all my keyword submits from now on. I also dont like how mediatraffic only allows 40 characters for urls or keywords. Feels kinda limiting. Anyways ill play around with MT and see if I can make it work with my remaining $80. Again thanks for your support.

Thanks Chris. Hopefully i can continue to improve on my stats, cut out weak campaigns and roll out profitable ones.

One thing that makes me confident in my success is that I enjoy this business and its fun for me thus far. Also i really do beleive that with the right game plan its possible to make $500, $1000, and even $10,000 in a day espically in the paid traffic areana. Again thank you all for your support and I intend to post my small victories while they still feel amazing!

Onward and Upward!

i'm not a member of greedreports maybe i should try but affbeast explained really well! I'll try affbeast first before greedreports. it depends on the money that i can save. I have $400 on my pocket but i want to have $1500 as a start.

Why?

Because if i find a golden room, i'll deposit my remaining money to scale that campaign! So that i can earn as much as possible.

If my idea is wrong, please tell me.

Btw, who's the owner of affbeast? It really rocks!

Thank Mohamed! Appretiate the support.

I agree completly about building a list. It seems like everybody who i have observed to be succeful as as IM'er (on a big scale) has some type of list building strategy in place. With my stock offer that getting me 20 CTR, i will put a optin email LP into my rotation.

I have lots of greed reports to study now. 7search, bing ads, and email lists are all in the currculum in the next few weeks.

Thanks for the support Eli. I agree completly. Like you said i feel its important to be methodical about expansion. I purchased a WSO that was about PPV (LeadImpact in specific). One of the authors most valuable points was: "Its not about getting millions of impressions to your landing page, it better to just get high quality traffic and slowly expand your campaigns with quaity".

Thanks everyone for your support. I'll try and give updates of my progress again later this week.

It took them a day or two to approve me. I also made sure to call them on the phone to expiedite the process. Also i think leadimpact is a little bit more newbie friendly, and higher quality traffic. (Im still testing MT but i think will only use to trasfer over campaign i think are worthwile that im running on LeadImpact).

A few tips from my very limited PPV career.
1) At first only use Urls for your keywords
2) You must have good tracking. Its not worth running a campaign if you dont track
3) Use landing pages almost always and remember to keep them with in the pop up window size (775 by 400 is leadimpact pop size) If you want to direct link. Split test direct linking and an LP page. Another negative about direct linking is there isnt much room for optimization.

I feel that if you want to give yourself a shot in anytype of business and especially the Internet marketing world you have to give yourself the competitive edge. For PPV i would consider the compentive edge to be:
1) Having tracking software
2) Useing landing pages
3) Adding features to landing pages that increase CTR (this would include: sound, geo-targeting, coudown timer etc..)
4) Proper keyword research.

If you dont have/do the above i think you put yourself at a big disadvantage from the get go. Its better to start any business with as much of an advantage as possible. Hope this helped.

Yeah, I was curious to know about that too.

[DELETED]

Yes, I would also like to know if Bing ads pay off as well. Congrats on your well-deserved success in the trenches of testing and testing some more! Kristie from Georgia

This is a good tip.

I would like to ask something if you don't mind. When you get a campaign profitable, for how long you usually run it? Days, Months ? In the cpa world the campaigns run for months or it is something with a short duration.

Hey Droopy Dawg, I agree that MT can also work when used properly. I only have a few landers that i have volume for. In the next week i want to make sure to get some sound, geo targeting, and a few other things to my LP to increase CTR.

I agree completely! Its seems with a little more time and experience the possibility for $xxx and $x,xxx are quickly approaching

Daily Update:

- Success #5!!! Got my first lead conversion! It was $1.50 payout! The best part about this:
1) First conversion outside of clickbank, it was Max Bounty!!!
2) First lead conversion of my Affiliate Marketing Career!
3) Only spent $1.50, of which $1.25 got eaten up with a keyword that was a little to general. So pretty much got my first conversion off .25 cents of targeting more specific keywords.

- Instead of making more campaigns today i concentrated on expanding and polishing up current campaigns. That is one of the reason I got my lead conversion.

Today was very exciting for me, getting my first lead conversion. I am making a diligent effort to explore all areas of Affiliate marketing traffic sources, aff networks, offers. I read in an article in the last week someone saying that pretty much every offer you see on every affiliate network there is someone making a killing with it. It really just comes down to if you have the correct marketing formula for that offer. I look forward to finding as many of these winning combinations as possible!

Last night i came home after going out parting with some friends, and in my tipsy motivated mind frame, deposited another $250 in my LeadImpact account. It was a commitment to myself, that I am going to do whatever it takes to make affiliate marketing work for me. I am playing to win not just play!

Weekend Update:
Got conversions 6,7, and 8 since my last post.

#6- $1.50 email submit
#7 $21 clickbank
#8 $65 clickbank

Stats:
Total Spent LeadImpact: $220
Total Earning from campaigns:$246
Total Profit: $26

I am very happy with my results thus far. I haven't been forcing my offer into a bigger window up until now, and i think i probably lost a lot of conversions . Im still trying to get it set up properly with my tracking, but think i have already noticed a difference by forcing the offer to be in a full sized window.

I also used this weekend to absorb everything i could on 7 search and plan to start running a few campaigns there to start. Ill probably play with 7 search for the next few weeks before tackling another traffic source for now. The combination of learning the new traffic source, and getting tracking setup for the new traffic source requires a decent amount of learning for me

Anyways hope everyone had a good weekend.

I have about 50 campaigns running right now, of which only a few campaigns get okay traffic. My campaign that has the most traffic, eats about $7 of budget a day. Of these campaigns i still have a lot of waiting and data collecting to do. I don't see how i can continue to expand my business by only focusing on 2 campaigns while keeping them tight and hyper-focused.

The few times i have tried high traffic keywords that i thought would work for a campaign, the keyword performed terribly.

Daily Update:
Got my first campaign up and running in 7search. I have used all i have learned to increase my chances of success in this platform. My plan is to start very tight and hyperfocused and then slowly expand. From what i have learned of 7search its like PPC and PPV had a baby and 7search was born

-Ben

Daily Update:

- As of yesterday, it was the third day in a row that i got a sale via Lead Impact! Sat-$23, Sun-$65, Mon-$33.

-Started my first few campaigns with 7 search. Both campaigns have about 10 targeted keywords. I made sure my adds pre-sell hard so if anybody does click on the link they are defintley a quality lead, unless they are a bot that is. In the last 24hours, ive gotten only 2 clicks with 10,000 impressions.

- The one thing i wish was easier with 7search is split testing. I have prolly 10 different variations of the same ad i would like to test but so far cant find any easy way to test. According to 7 search you can split test by having your different variations running at different times of the day, or different days. If anybody has any insight on this issue it would be greatly appreciated.

Im having fun playing around with a new traffic source and look forward to learning a lot in the next few weeks. Hope everyone is having a wonderful day.

It doesn't matter if you use regular domains or sub-domains, it won't effect conversion much.

If you will be using Adwords and want to have the keyword in front of your URL like keywords.domain.com, then you should have it as a subdomain. This is a must requirement in order to stay google compliant.

For LP creations i just use Photoshop and Dreamweaver. I place them in a directory usually in my root domain (I am sure my setup and organization could be better) ex. mydomain.com/product1, and just name my multiple different LP's index1.html, index2.html etc....

Hey William,
Thanks for your support. I enjoy your post on the forum.

Hey PPC Coach, Thanks for the support and i also enjoy your post in the forum!

Hey Greedy!

I unfortuntley have run into a small dry spell. After i had 3 days in a row with sales, the last 8 days have been completely dry. I will admit that the dryness sucked up some of my swagger last week, but im back in full swing this week. The only conversions where for email submits, where I spent much more than i earned.

Notes:

1) I am having trouble getting email submits to pan out via lead impact. Ive tried cutting keywords that dont seem to perform, optimizing LP's, and optimizing the campagin. These are $1.40 payouts, and after spending about $80 on 3 different but similar offers, dont see any hope. I have one Survey offer that is name and email submit that pays $4, which i am testing now, so far not looking that promising.


2) I have spent the last week optimizing all my campaigns. That means, making new LP's for offers that i didn't like. Switching up offers for some of the campaigns. Adding keywords to some campaigns, Cutting keywords from others. etc...

3) This week i plan to do a roll out of 7 search campaigns. I currently have 3 campaigns running, but all are spending about $1 a day because they are very tight, and pre-sell hard.

4) I think there is a 5% chance that something i did with my optimizing LP's have messed something up(Created a redirect page, so i could resize the window, and made sure all clicks open in new window via _blank). The reason i say this is because ever since making these changes i havent got a sale. Ive tested to see if eveything works, and it seems to be fine on my end, so thats why i say 5% something internal is jacked.

Stats:
LeadImpact Spent: $500
LeadImpact Rev: $300
Current position: -$200 (This could be higher if i get a refund for a clickbank product)

Conclusion: Its crazy how i thought after having 3 days in a row with sales that i figured something out. Now i go for 8 days dry, and it feels kinda like im back to square one, but with more knowledge. I am going to go ahead and deposit another $300 in LI, and hopefully get my swag back.

As always i am focused on sticking to the process and not focusing to much on the results at this point. I am confident i can make this work, and not to concerned with my $200 loss so far, just got keep truckin. Anyway, thank you all for your support.

-Ben

P.S. Its also much more fun and easy writing daily updates when something good happens rather than sharing of one's dry spell.

Thanks for the support!

I have taken your advice, and will hold on 7search until i have put a good 5-10 more campaigns up in the $4-$10 for leadimpact. I have already gone through all offers in that price range for a few networks and have chosen about 10 offers i can see potentially working.

Ill try and have these 10 campaigns all up by the end of the weekend. Next week ill start adding LP's and split test direct vs LP. Ill keep you guys posted.

Hey papauanac.
Thanks for the support. I would also like to get into the dating niche, but have yet to put up some dating campaigns. Because of your post i plan on putting a few campaigns up this week.

Hey Hrkjds,
Thanks for reading and showing support!

Labor Day Update:

- So I have put up 7 campaigns in lead impact, all of which are in $5-$10 / lead range. I started running all campaigns for a day direct linking, but have paused all of them until, I can put together a landing page. I am excited for the day that i can have a profitable campaign by simply direct linking, till than i have come to the conclusion with lead-impact in specific, it is necessarily for a landing page.

- For one of the campaigns I have i put together a LP ($7 payout), and have already got 2 conversions , so that particular campaign looks like it has great potential.

- I have used this weekend to really polish up my email marketing knowledge. (Actually purchased 3 different WSO's on the subject. One of which where email swipes) I have come to realize how important it is for me to put together an email list, and i am wasting time and money not capturing emails, and putting them thru a sales funnel.

Quick Stats:
LeadImpact Spent: $500
Clickbank Commisions: $300
Max Bount Commisions: $30
Net Loss: $170

I am currently at a loss, but am very happy with the knowledge ive gained. Im excited to start promoting products in the $5-$10 range and think i can find something that i can make work. Also i think i can start improving some CTR, here and there.


Goals for the week:

1) Create Landing Pages for my new campaigns
2) Create 3 more campaigns in the dating niche
3) Create an email opt-in page LP for my stock campaign (business opportunity/ IM niche)
4) Create Free Gift for for email opt-in
5) Create my email swipes that are half valuable content, and the other half promote affiliate products. This i imagine may take a little while, but i would like to have a year worth of swipes available. (Load how ever far i get into Aweber)

So for this week, my main focus is on my 10 new $5-$10/lead campaigns via leadimpact, and getting my email game up and running.

Hey DrwQ45,
Thanks for the support. Determined to make IM work, so this dryspell is just part of the learning curve. I feel its only a matter of time before i find / cultivate some winning campaigns.

Thats the intention. Im getting great practice in the process of learning. I have now created over 50 campaigns and over 100+ landing pages. I can confidently say that my skills have defintely improved in the last month.

Daily Update:

- Have gotten all my 10 new $5-$10 campaigns up. Only have Landing Pages for 2 of them thus far. My goal is to create LP's for all my new campaigns by the end of the week.

- I Have been spending a lot of time trying to get my email game up and running. I logistically know what to do, but there is a learning curve and a lot of things that must be done:
1) Getting used to Aweber
2) Creating a squeez page
3) Setting up tracking through CPVLab
4) Create a Free Giveaway for email submit (i have multiple ideas, on how to do this which is going to require me to make 2 different Reports/ Ebooks. One will prolly end up being a free WSO - coming soon to a warrior forum near you)
5) Putting together email swipes, so i can put my list on autopilot, and subscribers have sales funnel to go through
6) Choosing offers to promote, and creating email swipe for product

All the above i could probably do in a day if i had someone showing me exactly what to do, but like you all know teaching yourself usually takes a bit longer. On a positive note im confident teaching myself is giving me a better overall understanding of everything that i learn.

Anyways I have no conversions to report of today, but am slowly building up my IM business.

Thanks Kinyash!

Thanks Greedy!

Thanks Liquide!


Daily Update:

- I have a few clickbank products ive been promoting on L.I. that have payouts close to $100+ (rebills included). I have already spent about $50 each on 2 different campaigns that haven't converted yet (My CTR has also been steadily falling). I decided to pause these campaigns until i have a squeez page in place. Im finding that promoting clickbank products has been like rolling dice thus far. I cant confidently say if any campaign will survive, although all the ones with a sale are profitable for now (I promoting probably 35 clickbank products) It seems like every conversion is random.

- Im more confident than ever that if I set up a list building system in all these different niches Im currently targeting, it could be responsible for big paydays down the line, and also make this business a little bit more stable. Also I will be first concentrating on the IM niche for listing building, this is because it is laid out the best in every WSO, and you can literally see what the the top dawgs in the IM game are doing by signing up for there list. I also really do enjoy the IM niche as well. (When it comes to WSO's, i love the shiny objects )

-Ben

How much potential volume does each of these campaigns have?

Anyone hit targeting big keywords yet?

Thanks for the support MediaMarket!

Daily Update:
-Today i woke up and checked my CPVlab to see that i had 6 new conversions over night! Today is already going down as most conversions in a day for me. Most of them where from a dating offer, one of them was also my highest paying lead conversion to date at $15. For that $15 conversion, i have been running this campaign for the last month, and i was $12 into my spend until in finally hit for me last night.

- Today I will continue to work on sharpening up my 5-$15 campaigns, along with continuing to work on my email campaign.

Hey PinkGorilla, thanks for the support. I agree that breaking the ice initially is hardest part.

Hey Greedy! I agree that belief is probably the biggest part of the equation. I came to the conclusion when i got into the IM word that there are a lot of people that are very successful, and making a lot of money in the industry. That being said, if they could be successful than i know i could to. I have been successful in other industries which has allowed me the time, money, and belief to treat IM like a real business.

Weekly Update:
- My dating offer is my first campaign that is converting regularly. I am averaging about 5 conversion a day. The campaigns ROI is currently at 30%. I hope to improve this as more keywords continue to get cut. This campaigns has profited about $5 a day currently. This exact campaign i tried to transfer to MediaTraffic with no luck. MT is one tough nut to crack.

- Still working on setting up my email campaign. I am also working on creating my free report / guide for people who OPT-in. I will probably make a mini-guide /report about PPV, cause that is what i feel i can put together the highest quality content. Will also probably create signature this week, and give away my guide to warriors who want to opt-in to my list.

- I put up a 3 different 7search campagins this weekend, cause i read an article that motivated me. They only took me about 7 min each, and there all very tight and will not require much monitoring. (Im trying not to jump around to much from traffic sources, but these where to easy for me to create, not to try)

- I have about 7 campaigns on hold in the $5-$15 payout range, which I intend to create an LP and reactivate by the end of the week.


Hope everyone has a successful and productive week.

Hey Paul Thanks for the support!
I have the funds ready for TrafficVance, I will probably do it in the next week or two. I have been lagging a little with my new LI campaigns. No conversions for the 7search. I think one reason for this is 8 of the 9 campagins I have on 7search are CPS type offers. Ill try to get more lead type offers going in the next week.

Updates:

Lead Impact Stats: (Just deposited another $350)
Lead Impact Spent: $750
Total Commissions: $600
Net: -$150

7 Search Stats:
Spent: $40 with 0 commision thus far. (I attribute this to having almost exclusivley sale type offers)
Net: -$40

Media Traffic: (Will not deposit more money)
Spent $80 with 0 commissions: Media Traffic is very hard to crack. I've tried all type of offers, and nothing has hit or even showed any type of promise.
Net: -$80


- I have been hard at work getting my mini-guide together for my opt-in for the IM niche. Putting together all the content and making sure to add affiliate links/offers for products i trust and believe in.

Thats the Update!

Daily Update:

- Today has been a great day of conversions. My dating offer converted 6 times already, and is now at a 40% ROI. I hope to continue to improve my ROI by cutting more garbage keywords once they have had enough impressions.

- My clickbank stock campaign also converted today. Its the 3rd time since I started with leadimpact it has converted. Payout is $65. For this campaign my ROI is right at 100%.

- I'm currently at $93 revenue for the day. With a few more conversions this can be my first $100 day!

Things are starting to get more interesting

What do you mean when you say test new URLs and test Big URLs? I've seen and heard this many times before but never understood it.

No offense taken at all. I would feel the same way if i read another user with a similar post to mine. I am actually not planning on selling it, but rather releasing it as a Free WSO. I am confident I will do my credibility justice when people see the quality of the information i present.

Daily Update:

- Babysitting my current campaigns. Making little changes here and there to improve what I currently have going.

- Continuing to work on my WSO, I am very happy with it so far, and should be done by early next week.

- Today has been a decent day for conversion 5 so far of my dating offer and 1 for MyPCBackup. Although I am having trouble cracking how to get MyPCBackup profitable for US traffic. I have one country where its is in the green for now.

Anyways back to work.

Hey Greedy!

I am using a landing page for my Clickbank offer. However im not sure if my LP would be considered a pre-sell page? I have not tested out actual keywords. The few times I have it seemed to burn through money at crazy speeds (Or maybe what i thought was crazy speeds at the time). Anyways I will try and play around with these suggestions. Like always thanks for your help.

-Ben

Hey Ben, I'm really enjoying your process. You are doing very good!

I had this problem, too. I didn't have luck with this offer.

Hey Morg thanks for the support. 1) Right now I am only using paid traffic, that being said i feel having some free traffic methods in your business model can only help. Ill probably do some Youtube marketing in the next few months, but am way to busy right now. 2) For PPV i suggest starting in the $3-$15 payout for lead range. Any payout lower is hard to make profitable, any higher payout are much more difficult to convert.


Thanks Greedy!

Thanks Thego, appretiate the support!

Daily Update:

- I got approved by TrafficVance today. Now i am just waiting for my account to fund. You have to send in ID, cc info, and signed sheets, so there is going to be some processing time. Hopefully if i am lucky by the end of today i can run my first campaign. One thing i thought was interesting is that you need a separate account for US traffic vs. International. Meaning that you must deposit a $1000 into each account if you want to do both US and International traffic. Im only going to start with US for now, and move on from here.

- I have 2 conversions today for the dating offer Im promoting. My ROI for that campaign has dropped from 40% to 30%.

- I am continuing to work hard to get my PPV guide finished. Even getting Affiliate links to put into guide is a time consuming process in it of itself.

Anyways, hope everyone's having a good day.

Hey Greedy! Finally I am able to give you a little nugget back in return! (I have my own treasure chest of nuggets from you) Today is a great day!

Update:

Stats:
LeadImpact Spent: $1000
LeadImpact Commisions: $1000
ROI: 0%

TrafficVance: Only $3 into budget.

- So for the last week i have profited a little. My dating camapign is paying for it self and for my other marketing. Than every few days a clickbank sale would go down, and take me into profits for the week. This has been the case for the last few weeks. I will start expanding again once i get my email campaign up and running.

- Today was the first time one of my Clickbank sales got refunded. Ive been warned about this, and it finally happened. This continues to reinforce that i need to get my email game up and running so income becomes more reliable.

- For those who have not noticed, I have changed my avatar from a picture of a happyface to my own picture. (I did this to start the branding process). Video coming soon to a warrior forum near you

- I have finished my E-book, and just need to format a little better. I will also have a buddy do a re-read for spelling and grammar mistakes. Ive' already created an Ebook cover image, and also an image for my signature.

Anyways hope everybody is having a productive successful week.

Onward and Upwards!
-Ben

Yup, I agree. Test, test, and test some more. Stay focused on.

Hey Rizzy,

Thanks for the support. I created as many campaigns as i did because a lot of the very specific niches i chose generated very little traffic. I was promting clickbank products at first and as you know they have a product for everything. For example i created campaigns for anything animal related I could find. Examples: Building a Chicken Coup, Raising Mini Pigs, Raising Goats, Raising Chickens, Raising Turkeys, Raising Rabbits. As you can see each one of these where a different campaign and none of them generated that much traffic. After all my testing of clickbank products/niches I was able to weed out 4 campaigns that are profitable. If it was not for my expansive testing i would have never known about these niches. That being said, how i approached PPV i would not necessarily recommend for someone new, and on a budget.

I do agree with Greedy, and with your plan of action. I think if you stick to what you outlined above you are on a very good track to become a successful PPV Marketer. I would also like to add that you never know whats going to happen until your campaign goes live. You may think something will generate great traffic, but than be sadly mistaken.

Like with everything else in life, make sure to keep taking action, test, tweak, rinse, repeat.

Hey Nick. Thanks for the advice and support!

Hey Takiki, thanks for the support.

Johnny, thanks for reading, and the support!

Update:
PPV Update:

- So i just recently started setting up new campaigns in LeadImpact . I have been focusing mostly on dating offers, and have found a few new ones that i think have slight potential.

- My clickbank products i have been promoting with success have not been converting as well as they did before. They are still in the profit, but if another sale doesn't come in, in the next week or 2 it will probably be back to breakeven.

- Right now i am probably making about $10-$15 a day profit on PPV. The reason it is as low as it is right now, is because i am testing a lot of new campagins and the majority never end up making any money. Also I have narrowed my campagins down to about 4 profitable ones.

- I still have plenty of budget in my TrafficVance account, but havent really started creating new campaigns in there yet. A lot of the dating offers i am promoting are adult dating sites which trafficvance does not allow. I will definitely use this budget soon enough, just need to figure how exactly i would like to do it.

- I will probably purchase a 1 hour consulting session with 1 or 2 different experts/gurus to take a look at what im doing. I am sure there are little things i can tweak here and there to heavily increase my profits from PPV marketing.

E-mailing Marketing Update

- I have finished my E-Book on PPV Marketing a few weeks ago. I have not released it yet because I have been consulting with some people as the best way to release it for maximum exposure. My reasons for writing this E-Book are; start building my email list, provide high quality information, brand myself as a person whom over delivers with quality of conent.

- I hope to finally release this E-Book in the next few weeks. In order to do this i still have to set-up my funnel: Squeez page, thank you page, thank you email, download page, download thank you page, follow-up emails, *maybe an OTO,. I plan on building multiple lists in the IM space. One that i will provide high quality content and i will push my own offers, and another that i build thru buying solo ads and monetize thru selling solo ads.

Final Thoughts:

- This last month has been a good one. Although my income has not improved that much, I have put in a lot of working on building a solid foundation to my business. I continue to love this business, and am amazed how everyday i continue to find golden nuggets. Thank you all for reading.

Good job!

Have you tried 50onRed? I just started buying traffic from them, and it is going well so far

Hey JunkDNA, thanks for the support and interest.

1) The dating offers payouts are between $3-$6, so I will usually spend $10. At first my targeting is very tight, so if doesn't convert within first $10 ill probably move to the next. For me about 1/3 will convert in the initial trial. If it does convert, i will work on expanding my keyword list. I am running a few payday loan offers (havent converted on any yet) which have much higher payouts, so my initial budget for these campaigns are much higher than that of the dating offers.

2) If i cant make it convert with super tight targeting with in the first 1.5x-2x of the offers payout ill dump.

3) This all depends on the volume of traffic a specific keyword is getting. You can be in 10th position for a keyword like amazon.com, and still flood yourself with traffic. Most of the time ill will start in the minimum bid position. Once the campagin is running, and i see no traffic is coming in Ill slowly increase my bid.

4) I am fortunate enough to be doing this full time!

Thanks for your questions and for reading.

@bigbenre Thanks for the reply. Very conservative strategy. Possibly that's why it works.

@Greedy: So, bidding wars rule, most of the time!

Just one more, is it at all possible to pull out large profits, like $1,000+ per day from one single aff. offer with PPV or is that just a pipe dream? To achieve $1,000 pr day goal should one rather focus on building up a portofolio of 100s of small profitable campaigns, each making around $50-100 per month?

Hey PPC Coach, thanks for the support!

Monday Update:

- My rep for TrafficVance called me today, to let me know he wanted me to start pushing more traffic. I only have 3 campaigns running that spend pennies a day. We had a good conversation, and I promised him I would get a few campaigns up by weeks end. He also gave me some valuable nuggets on whats hot this time of year, and also what he thinks will be hot in the near future. His suggestions of niches hot this time of year: Payday Loans, Christmas related offers, and weight loss right after new years.

- I had my "PPV Guide" I created finally proof read. I now am going to higher someone on Fiverr or Odesk to format and make look more visually pleasing. One of the purposes of creating this E-Book was to start building my own list. So this week I am dedicating some time to getting my sales funnel created. (opt in page, thank you page, thank you email, download page, follow up emails). I'm hoping to release it before the end of the month.

I am committed to finishing off the year strong. I have a lot of exciting projects in the pipeline, and grow more fond of this industry by the day. Anyways thanks for reading.

Hi Ben, I am thinking of getting a trafficvance account now. Just wanted to know among Leadimpact and Trafficvance which one do you like more?

Tuesday Update:

- I had a one hour consulting session with a guru in the industry to look over everything i was doing. He was very knowledgeable and listened well, but I everything he told I already knew. The call cost me nearly $200, but it was a business expense. I knew there was a 50/50 chance i get a super golden nugget, but didn't get it this time around.

- I found someone on Fivver to Format my E-book to have nice Headers, and layout. I am also having him create an E-book cover. This is all costing me $15. I am excited to finally get this done so I can start building my email list.

- I plan on expanding a few of my successful campaigns to TrafficVance this week. I want to take some time to get used to their interface.

That's all for today.

Onward and Upwards!
-Ben

Wednesday Update:

- I signed up to JVZoo, Clicksure, and Warrior Plus so i have a handful of offers i can fill my sales funnel with for my mailing list. In regards to list building i plan to create multiple lists. One thats very high quality and one thats more meant for eventually being for solo-ads sales.

- Today i intend to get a handful of my dating campaigns moved over to TrafficVance.

On a side not, Im feeling really good today. I have a lot of interesting things in my pipeline, that I am excited to go live. At least a few times a week, i learn something that i feel could add lots of money to my bottom line. My favorite part about this business, is that it is limitless!

Onward and Upwards!
-Ben

Thursday Update:

- First I would like to say how much I love Fiver. I paid a guy $15 to format my E-Book and also make a cover, and he did a fantastic job. My E-Book actually look semi-professional, which is amazing for a Free E-Book.

- As the release of my E-Book approaches, I feel more motivated to post my progress in this thread which is a great thing. I plan on implementing differnet levels of aggresiveness, depending on how you found my Ebook. For example my funnel will be more aggressive with Solo-Ads Opt-ins, vs people who sign up through my signature.

Ways I plan on promoting My Free E-Book and Building My List

1) In my signature. I am going to buy the signature image which cost $60 for the year. I intend to start making more quality posts through out the warrior forums. (5-10 posts in the morning and 5-10 posts in the evening).

2) I will release it as a Free WSO on the warrior forum. I think this will cost me $37 to join the war room, and another $40 to create a thread in the WSO section.

3) I plan on purchasing solo-ads. I have purchased many Email-Marketing WSOs that have included a great Rolodex of legit solo-ad sellers.

- I am still plugging away with all my PPV stuff, and also have a few other internet marketing projects in the works. I feel like I am repeating myself but have to say that I feel so grateful for the passion I feel for Internet Marketing! There is no limit to what can be done!

Onward and Upwards!
-Ben

Friday Update:

- So in the last day I have been working a lot on setting up my funnel for my email list. I have been working primarily on my squeeze pages which I am creating 3 different ones for the 3 types of lists i plan to build. Types of lists i intend on creating:

List #1) Link in my signature to promote my E-Book. For warriors on my list I will send high quality content, and once in a while promote an offer that i personally like.

List #2) Free WSO Release: I intend to do an official FREE WSO release. The list i gather from this I will provide high quality content as well, and promote offers slightly more frequently than List #1

List #3) This List will be created through solo-ads. This list I intend to be the the most aggressive with. I will probably end up having multiple type of lists within the realm of solo-ads.

- From what started off as a small project of making a report, has turned into something much bigger. It has got me stoked on the list building and product creation tip.

- I am excited to start combining the power of paid traffic, CPA and list building within all niches. The possibilities are truly endless.

Onward and Upwards!
-Ben

But with a lower budget testing a $5 payout lot cheaper then an offer with a $50.

Monday Update:

- Today I hit my first $100+ profit day!!! This is great cause Ive been working to break this benchmark for a little while!

- Today was the first time I converted a Payday Loan offer which was part of the reason I broke my first $100+ profit day!

- I spent a lot of today working on expanding my current successful campaigns to other countries and to TrafficVance. For TrafficVance i have only created campaigns in the US to start.

- Due to the fact that LeadImpact has changed their minimum deposit to $1000, i will have to go back to my E-Book and make necessary changes. I will also have to re-send it to get formatted so it looks professional.

- I am hoping to finally release my E-book in my signature by the end of the week. I am hard at work setting up 3 different funnels, depending how you get my E-Book.

Overall, today gave me some great momentum. As my PPV efforts continue to improve I am excited to introduce other forms of Internet Marketing and hopefully continue to increase my bottom line.

Onward and Upwards!

Hey Drazz, thanks for the support. Just keep plugging away and you'll be at the $100 day mark in no time. Consistent persistent effort is golden!

To Your Success!
-Ben

He already joined.

Yeah, more 100+ days are coming I guess . At the moment I am averaging $20/day for this month which is a great start.

At the moment, I put all my effort in building a great lead magnet which I will use to build a list in my niche. I will send traffic to this and hope people like it. Will cost time and money upfront, but I heard good things about this approach so we'll see what it will bring in the end.

Hey Gn3man,

Thanks for following my thread! I would like to start off and say, that if i was reading my thread i would also have the same concerns that you have voiced. Fortunately, i know my track record, and have been very successful in other businesses. This has given me the confidence and capital to grow my IM business at a fast pace. Now to answer your questions:

- Im a building a list in the IM niche for a few reasons.

1) I am very passionate about internet marketing!
2) IM is the easiest niche to build a list.
3) When buying solo-ads majority of the sellers have lists in the IM niche
4) Warrior forum is a great way to help build a list. (This is the only forum that i am actually active on)


- For your second question: I am fortunate enough to be making the 4 figures a month, but this alone does not make me eligible to be selling information. One of the reasons i am releasing my first E-Book/WSO for free, is that i want to build a reputation of only creating and promoting super high quality content. As far as monetizing my list goes, this will be unique for every list i create.
1) The List i build through my signature i will only present high quality content and only promote offers i personally believe in.
2) List I build through my Free WSO, will be similar to the above, except promote offers slightly more frequently.
3) Lists i build through solo-ads
A) I will create one list that i build with no intention of selling solo-ads in the future, and just promote offers.
B) I will create a list for the purpose of selling solo-ads in the future.

Anyways, I hope this helps clarify my vision a bit to others.

Hey Hasan,

Thank you for the very kind words, and for following my journey. I am very happy to see you are also taking action. I also tried email submits but personally was never able to get them to profit for me. I have always believed it is impossible to not be successful if you continue to take the proper action in the right direction.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey Ben,

First off congratulations. You have come a long way in a short time! I myself am on my PPV journey and things are going well

In your ebook you state:

For product category, I always do Category = "Life Style", Sub Category =
"Other". I always do this because I know it will result in the minimum $.015
cent bid amount on the next page. If something is wrong, LeadImpact will
contact you. If you are promoting adult material, I advise you to choose
the proper categories.

So you always choose these categories no matter what niche you are in? Surely you need to pick the relevant category for your niche, so the right eyeballs see it? Also are you saying that you get guaranteed minimum bids using the above category. Surely the target bid price is the same across the board?

Cheers Martyn

How many campaigns are you running ?
Is it from a few big conversions or many small ones ?

Thanks

Hi Ben,

I am thinking of getting a trafficvance account now. Just wanted to know among Leadimpact and Trafficvance which one do you like more?

Hey Sonix!

Thank you so much for the very kind words. It took a lot of time and effort to create it, and I very much appreciate you liking it. I know you have been getting your feet wet and taking action with PPV too, which i commend you for. The only way to be successful with PPV is to be consistant, persistent, and to always keep taking action. As you know PPV traffic is not necessarily the easiest, but with practice it can become more and more profitable.

I was talking to my Rep at TrafficVance and he was telling me how they have multiple people spending $5000+ a day on pop-up traffic. That leads me to believe that some people are making million + a year just useing PPV traffic. That means still lots of growing to do

Onward and Upwards!
-Ben

Just my 2 cents, but I did a payday loan offer and ran into this. - Try to use subdomains... I found that most of those loan offers, people are bidding 40-50 cents on the root domain, yet the subdomain, which may be a little more relevant to your offer in some cases, was still around 3 cents

This is very inspiring. Thank you for keeping us updated!

Hi Ben,

I've been following this thread from the very beginning, pleased to see you've kept it going, loads of great information you're giving out.

good luck with your new venture into 50onred.



Thanks

Thursday Night Update:

- On my new round of PPV campaigns for insurance offers I'm promoting, one just converted tonight. Now its time to expand keywords and raise bids on a few keywords to get into first position and increase traffic.

- Creating my email funnel is taking much longer than i initially thought it would. Like everything in life, the first time around is the slowest, but after this time i should be able to do it at a much quicker pace. Similar to the creation of the E-Book its been a long but necessary process.

Goals Before New Years:

1) Create funnel for and release my E-Book as a Free WSO

2) Create funnel, create alternative opt-in page , and send out 1-3 solo ads. For each buy Ill get 100 per seller for about $40.

3) Set up multiple PPV landing pages with email opt-ins. Start lists in a few different niches!

Hey Rmiller,

Thank You for your kind words, and congratulations on starting up your PPV adventures. From the screenshot you provided i really can't tell much except that you spent some money. You havent even spent the payout amount on all keywords combined, so you have much more testing to do. If you havent already, i suggest downloading my E-Book in my signature. It is full of all the knowledge i have acquired since i started PPV. Also if you do have specific questions about your campaign, i suggest you post it as a new thread. There are others that are more experienced than myself, and it will get much more exposure than posting in my thread. Anyways thanks for your support and good luck with your journeys.

Hey Ricardo

Friday Update:

- Just had a nice long conversation with my Rep at TrafficVance, he told me some very interesting things. He said that right now Neveda just legalized online poker again. He said New Jersey is next in line, and predicted by the end of 2014 Online Poker should be legal through out all of the US. I thought this was very cool, cause there is huge money to be made in that industry if you know how to prepare for it.

- Ive spent a lot of today adjusting bids so i can get more traffic to some of my campaigns. Will update later with any news.

Hey Ganti,

Thank you for following my thread and your kind words. I agree that it would be nice to have a tutorial for landing pages. I still have tons of room for improvement in this area of my Internet Marketing Game. Eventually, i would like to get an assistant that has good web design and ad copy skills . Hopefully soon

Hey Jute,

Thanks for continuing to follow my journey. As for your questions.

1) I personally have my tracking on the same domain that i use to host some of my landing pages. This being said i have read that it is good to have your tracking on a completely different server than your website if you can. This is recommended to increase both speed of tracking and load speeds of your landing pages. Also it is highly recommend that you use a VPS Linux server with SSD drive. Having slow hosting can hurt your conversions.

2) I use CPVLab and the user would be able to see your domain. I would suggest not using a domain with your last name for tracking. Also i would suggest also getting a privacy option on your domains so that no one can look you up on whois. Hope this helps answer your questions.

To Your Success!

Sunday Update:

- I have been spending most of this weekend getting up my PPV campaign for an Insurance product. I have decided to go right ahead and put up this campaign on all 3 PPV networks (LeadImpact, TrafficVance, 50onRed). Its much faster to add campaigns to all 3 networks in one shot, rather than coming back later and trying to transfer it over.

- My subscriber list from my E-Book is up to 70 subscribers. I believe by this week i should have my funnel in place, and my list will start getting regular high quality content.

- While going through all the example landing pages i have archived on my computer, to decide what to send to my list i got some great ideas of some landing pages i would like to try and implement this week on some of my campaigns. In particular i would like to get some video landing pages up.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Hey Ganti,

Thanks for Downloading the E-Book. I hope to get the WSO out by the end of this week. The thing that is taking me the longest is setting up funnels. Its a time intensive process. Luckily after i do it once ill have some type of template in place. Also i have been focusing a lot of my time expanding my PPV campaigns as well. Hope you had a good weekend.

Great job, I had two 200$+ days in a row! Amazing. Was 10$ short for my first 300$ day . Mostly because of 1 campaign which will only be profitable this month, that's a pity. But let's crush it this month

Last month was my best IM month and I am pretty sure I will beat it this month. Gogogo.

PS. I did PM-ed you, in case you didn't noticed.

Do you have a link to this document?

Hey Jason,

Thanks for the kind words and support. I have been thinking about creating a blog to document my journey as well. You mentioning this, has forced me to write some steps in my To-Do list to move that project forward. Thanks!

-Ben

Hey Drazz,

I actually have been lagging a bit getting my PPV opt-in up and running. I know with solo-ads (for IM niche), people try and get 30% or greater opt-in (Solos seem to cost about $40 for 100clicks). This means that people are aiming for an opt-in for about $1 or less if possible. For PPV I imagine it would be much lower. If you are paying 1.5 cents per pop, you could send 67 pops for $1. So if you have a 1.4% opt-in or better that seems like it should be good cause you are paying $1 or less per subscriber.

What kind of opt-in rate have you been getting thus far with your weight loss campaign?

My goal for the rest of the week, it completely focused on my list building. I hope to get up a PPV campaign with an opt-in, along with purchase a solo ad by weeks end. Once i have done some personal testing ill give you some of my opt-in numbers.

Hey Bobson, thanks for the kind words and support!

Hey Greedy,

Happy Holidays! I was actually saying that i would pay for a coach after i had some time to learn the business a little on my own. I intend to promote offers and provide high quality content from the start. Hopefully i will schedule my first solo-ad purchase tomorrow.

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!
-Ben

Thursday Update:

- I pretty much set up my funnel how i want it for now, to be ready to handle solo ads.

- I added an exit pop to both of my opt-in pages. For now i have them both going to an affiliate offer.

- Today I emailed one of my favorite Internet marketers in the business. I believe that he is one of the true big boys in the industry. My only relation to this person at the moment is that I have purchased many of his WSOs. I offered him the right to my exit-pops for my solo-ads campaign for nothing in return, just as potential way to work with him in the future. I intend to spend about $1000 in the next month buying solo-ads, so my exits pops will probably get around 1500 hits themselves.

I am doing this because i think he's one of the best, and if i can start to build a relation, it is well worth my exit-pops. I will keep you guys posted to whether he responds, and hopefully takes my offer.

- I hope to purchase and schedule my first solo-ad tonight.

Hey Naveen,

Thanks for the kind words, and following my thread. I also would like to congratulate you on your "WSO of the Day"! That's a very impressive! Also i very much like the simplicity and feel of your sales page. Nice and clean!

Hey Mithya,

Hope you're doing well! Thanks for continuing to follow PPV profits per day are still hovering around the $100 profit per day mark. Its a little slow this week, cause some of my offers are paused until after the new year.

My list building efforts should be fun! I have probably purchased and gone through about 10 solo-ad WSOs alone. It feels good to finally get to this point. Now its just about keeping my foot on the gas peddle.

Tuesday Update:

- My main focus of today is to work on a few of my email follow up series. For the solo i purchased yesterday, there is only 5 days/ 5 messages in the follow up series. Im am also split testing different funnels so i have to make sure all follow series are working properly.

- My Driver License is about to expire, so i have to goto the DMV today and take a photo, and pay renewal fees. Not internet marketing but has to get done so im not driving around with an expired license.

I'll have another update later today.

Hey Mithya! Happy New Years to you as well. Thank you for your continued support. As long as you keep taking action in the right direction, you'll get to where you want to go.

Hey Spartan,

I think the strategy you have laid out is a smart one. I also plan to do exactly as you suggest. Create opt-in campaigns with a good funnels in place. The beauty is you can do this for many different niches as well eventually.

To be honest i was doing a lot of simple HTML at first, but recently i have been using Optimizepress2 (would put an affiliate link but i dont think that allowed). Autoresponders easily integrate, and i like that in most cases it will auto fit to your window size. If you goto the ebook in my sig, that page was built on optimizepress, also if you make the window smaller, it will resize accordingly. Also it allows you to easy add an exit pop. I think speed probably is effected slightly, but more importantly i think you must have good hosting in place to handle the income traffic.

Anyways, I hope this helps a bit. The strategy you talked about i think is what all successful people in internet marketing do!

Hey Carlos,

Hey Greedy!

I haven't really monetized my list just yet. I am giving a away a free ebook on the front end, and dont really have any type of offers im promoting on the front end. My funnel is filled with high payout offers ($100+) so i wanted to build a slight relationship and give value at first. I will report back once more people have gone further down my funnel.

My optin rate for solo's have been amazing at close to almost 50%. I have heard a lot of people say recently, that its not always the size of your list, but the relationship, and responsiveness of it.

I am hoping this list can turn into a quality list of buyers, but my backup plan is to create a list for the purpose of selling solo-ads if they seem to only be freebie seekers. i will probably segment my list accordingly in the near future.

Anyways its always good to see you stop by!!

Happy New Years Greedy!!!

-Ben Lawrence

Hey Vignesh for your support, i usually keep my LPs around 795px by 400px. this size will ensure your pop is is small enough to fit in LeadImpact, TrafficVance, and 50onred's window size. Hope this helps.

To Your Success!
-Ben Lawrence

Hey BigBen,

Congrats on building your list to over 500 so far, monetizing the list is now the key to a great future.

Well done

Thursday Update:

- Got my first Aweber commission. It was for 33 cents, 1/3 of the $1 free month trial. I have heard of some affiliate marketers out there that making more than $10k / month just on Aweber residual checks from people on the monthly plan. I only need a few more thousand sign ups

- Up to 675 total subscribers. I only have 250 clicks incoming left, so in order to get my list to 1000 by the end of the week I'm going to have to buy more clicks (solo-ads). I will probably buy another $200 worth of clicks today. That should buy me about 500 clicks which means 500 visitors to my opt-in page. My opt-in rate is probably around 35% now.

- I have spent a lot of time today going through my PPV campaigns, and looking at what keywords need to paused. I have had some keywords that worked great for like 2 months, but than the last 2 months the keyword performs horribly. I am not quite sure why this happens but i have come across this a few times. That being said its a good idea to always check up on your campaigns even if they are on autopilot mode.

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Hey Greedy! Thanks, i was not able to hit 1000 last week but this week i am hoping to break that milestone as well.



- Hey Watsonovedaddes, I am still running PPV traffic pretty aggressively. I currently spend on average of $100, to make about $100 / day profit. My ROI on average with my current PPV campaigns is right about 100% ROI.

Hey Inferno, I completely agree with you that its not the size of the list rather the quality of the subscribers. As to answer your question i have not yet monetized my list. I am testing out some different strategies for some high payout offers. I am getting openings and clicks, so my back-up plan for my list built thru solo-ads, is to potential start selling solo-ads.

Hi Ben,

Congratulations on your continued success.
I am curious as to why you were shut on dating offers, as I am myslef running dating offers on ppv. where you direct linking and they did not like the lead quality? Thanks in advance.

great job friend and keeping on the great work.
I was wondering who you use for your solo ads?

Hey Mithya!

i) Self targeting with PPV is allowed as long as the offer allows it. If it specifically states that you cannot bid on trademarked terms than i would not self bid. It could be looked at like hijacking the offer, and that's why some Offers don't allow it. I would talk to your AM again, cause i think every offer on there network usually has its own restrictions.

ii) 50onRed i have concluded to be a very good traffic source. It is a great addition to Trafficvance and LeadImpact. I would say i like all of them all a lot. As far as quality of traffic i would say that i havent done enough testing to make any conclusions. They all seem to have about the same quality as of right now.

LeadImpact:
Pros:
- I'm the most familiar with
- Best volume of traffic.
- Allows the most keywords variations that can get you cheap traffic on expensive urls/kwywords

TrafficVacne:
Pros:
- You have an Rep at the company you can speak to
- They have a very clean and easy to use interface

50onRed
Pros:
- Easy to get into, and cheapest initial deposit at $500
- Easy to use interface
- Great addition to TrafficVance and LeadImpact when expanding campagins

Anyways hopes this helps, and keep up the good work!


Hey Dele,

Thanks for the very kind words, actually reading the Guide, and following my thread!

1) No, what i meant was that sometimes while you are adding keywords that you may by accidentally add a rouge keyword. For example i have personally added the word "keyword" to my keywords by accident twice, cause i was copying over some keywords from an excell file where the top cell had the word "keyword". I didnt look over my keywords carfully enough, and only found out my mistake the next day when the word "keyword" ate up my whole $5 daily budget on LeadImpact. That why i set all of my campagins to $5 daily budget at first.

2) I would say you should collect between 10-15 Urls at first with an Alexa rating of 100,000 or less so you can get some decent traffic. Once you find a keyword that converts, than you can do variations and start expanding.

3) The reason I recommend 775px by 475px is because depending on what tool bars the user has on there web browser, it can slightly reduce the viewable area of the pop-up. By making your creative fit 775px by 475px you will always be safely within the pop-up's viewable space.

Hope this helps, and thanks again for the kind words!

Thanks for the kind words, and continuing to follow!

Hey Ddev,

Hey Dele,

Thanks so much for useing my link, that is very kind of you! I also am useing the starter VPS for 24.99 from Beyond Hosting. they as you said will install all your tracking for you, and they are very quick with responding to support tickets. Usually get an answer within 10 min. The one thing that would take them to the next level for me, is if they provided phone support.

Hey Pope,

Thanks for following. I also hope to share my first 1k day soon enough. Its really not to far out, as long as i stick to the game plan i laid out for myself.

Hey Greedy!

Always a pleasure to have you stop by and drop a line. Thank you again for always providing value to this section of the forum!

Anyways i will have a update later today!

-Ben Lawrence

Tuesday Update:

- The new version of CPVLAB just got released, V 2.17. I currently have BeyondHosting performing the update for me. (One of the best parts of BeyondHosting is they perform lots of server tasks for you). The update will make it possible to track mobile traffic better (i currently dont run any mobile traffic), and also better ways to view and analyze data. With this update CPVLAB will probably gain some more market-share, because people now have a good tracking option besides imobitrax for mobile tracking.

- Started implementing my mourning routine this week. This includes:
a) Wake up
b) Read motivational book 30 min (ex. Think and Grow rich, The Power of Now)
c) Meditation - 11 min. I just sit silently and follow my breath
d) Drink my Green Shake (Product is called Green Vibrance)
e) Affirmations (Current affirmations from "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" by T. Harv Eker.
f) GET TO WORK!

- I have a lot of to-dos for both PPV and List building that i will be working on today.

Tuesday Update:

- So i finally finished setting up my new funnel for solo ads. Already some very cool results. Spent $55 today for solo-ads. Got about about 200 clicks, and 100 opt-ins so a 50% opt-in rate! Also after opt-in Ive started sending users to an offer with a $35 payout. Got 1 sale as well. So pretty much spent $20 ($55 ad spend minus $35 commissions = $20) for 100 op-tins, which comes out to about 20 cents per opt-in which is great. Im upto 1250 subscribers as of today. This number should go up quickly now cause i am going to put a decent budget in solo-ads especially if i can build my list for cheap and potentially for free.

- I got kicked off my host and post Insurance offer that was making $100 per day. I got an email from the owner of the affiliate network saying that the lead buyers where not able to convert any of my leads. This brings my PPV total down quite a bit. Even though this was a profitable campaign, it was very time consuming, so part of me is happy I now have more time to focus on my other PPV campaigns and projects.

- This week I met an Internet Marketer through a family friend of mine. He's knowledgeable about Mobile CPA, so after meeting we decided to work together to setup some campaigns. The last 2 days we have been working hard setting up Mobile Campaigns. It is a nice change having a project with someone to work. Also the potential in the Mobile CPA space is incredible, so its very exciting.

- I have a handful PPV campaigns i would like to get up by the end of the week. I already know what campaigns i would like to set-up, i just have to do some keyword research and than just setup the campaign.

Anyways, hope everybody having a great start to there week!

Onward and Upwards!
