Critique Please, What am I doing?

OK So I am relatively new to all this. I need pointers where I have been going wrong.

It first started, I wanted to become a Casino Affiliate. I purchased some targeted traffic from someone on here which was cheap. I got the hits but no sign ups. The method they were using was Pop Unders I think. I also tried to use Plenty Of Fish Ads. This is actually what brought me here. I was looking at how to write Good Ads. Anyway I gave up on the Casino Affiliate stuff because it seems to hard to get the sign ups.

I have my domain. It must be a fairly common thing on Google Because I get quite a lot of Direct Hits in Google Analytics. This is just my domain, My Name its not targeted at anything really. I have started to add a bit of content on it. Feel free to visit My Site and tell me what you think. Click the link in the bottom of my sig. Maybe I can use this better?

I registered for Fiverr and have sold One Gig! It was sending two unique opening messages for Plenty Of Fish. That sold Once. I have spent 4 times that on more gigs on Fiverr. Two of Which did not deliver.

I registered for ClickBank. There are two products I want to promote. (100%Winners and Roulette Sniper). I got into Google Adwords. I advertised My site. It got a few hits. I tried to advertise the Clickbank links and then I got suspended from Google Adwords. I have some money in my Plenty Of Fish advertising account so I am trying to advertise my ClickBank Products through there.

I have not given up on this yet. My challenge is to sell at least ONE product on Clickbank. So far I have not made ANY money at all.

What should I be doing now? What shouldn't I be doing now? Could anyone shove me in the right direction?

    You should stop jumping from one thing to the next. Classic beginners mistake. Stick with one thing until you make it work. You will succeed much faster doing things this way.

    I agree with Will. I did it myself when I first started. Jumping from one offer to the next and never make any money until I concentrated on one niche at a time. Stick with a niche and complete it then move to the next or whatever but stop jumping all over the place. Good luck.

    Gambling is actually a good niche, despite all the recent crackdowns in the US. I've made money offline with that niche and still like it. But I'd agree with Will, you'll need to settle into something and work it for awhile, to get any results. As to the traffic you bought using pop-unders, I'll bet anything it was all 'bots' visiting your site...and bots don't gamble :-)

      OK So I am using Plenty Of Fish Advertising. Here are my ads for the Roulette one. The First is the Advert. The second its the target. Please can someone tell me if its any good and even better help me improve that ad. The next one I am going to write is about the 100%Winners Arb Software. I haven't got round to that one yet.

    Do not panic. Many newbies make this mistake. Getting straight into Adwords is like fishing in ocean without knowing how to do it. As will has rightly said, first stick to one thing. Anything in which you have confidence. It can be blogging, promoting affiliate products or creating your own product. Try to master it as much as possible without spending too much money from your pocket. Earn before you spend. Remain within your budget. Any niche, every business activity can give you results but only if you put your 100% to it.
    One very positive aspect is that you have taken action. Many even do not get started. So now take action in one direction and put in your maximum. I am sure you will be successful.
