Thanks! I will work on each of those. Btw, I was able to make these sales by just direct linking, but I know that a good landing page can greatly increase my results. Since I already have a list, I'm not really interested in building another one. I'm thinking about using either Sendlane or Instapages to create a landing page.

It's really good to know that people are still making sales via direct linking. It's a good sign because now that you know the campaign converts, it's time to build a landing page around that offer. Bing is so untapped and I see it staying this way for many years atleast!

Amazing! I thought direct linking with bing has been prohibited long time ago. I am missing a lot then if direct linking is allowed in bing. Truth is I was not able to increase my QS before in my landing pages no matter what I did so I left bing. I concentrated on organic traffic since then. I think I got to dive again into PPC if that is the case.

To the OP, would you mind sharing the niche that you used?

Thanks

Solarwarrior do you have any recommendations on a faster server? WPEngine is one I've heard of but starting out with little money I thought I would first just try a fast loading theme.

I started out cheap.
Namecheap hosting should be sufficient for you.

Hi,

Just a few question as I'm thinking to get started. Is the $84 your net-profit? How much did you spend on the campaigns? And is $220 enough as a budget to get my business off the ground? I already have my own hosting and website. What is the probability of failure for a beginner's first $220 affiliate marketing attempt?

Looking forward to hearing from you,
Ahmed

220$ - you can start testing the water, maybe a build a small list and try to sell it. Personally I would suggest you to start with some CPA to get the feeling of getting some conversions, how to optimize the CTR and get some tracking data

Thanks

Ahmed32, with $220 you can easily set up your first campaign and run it for a few days and see what your results are. Just make sure that you spend it wisely and choose your keywords carefully.

So you're in the hole -$97.80?

Bing is an expense, you have to deduct expenses.

I advise you to create more ad texts. You will notice that CTR varies from ad to ad. Then you will keep the ads with the higher CTR that would possibly offer you a lower CPC. Make various tests with different ad texts in Bing Ads.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all of your comments and advice. I'd like to give an update on the results of my campaign. As of today I haven't made anymore sales, but I've received over 200 clicks. So, I decided to create a landing page related to the offer to see if that would make any difference. Also, I've created three different ad texts and I've gotten rid of the keywords that aren't performing as well. I'm going to continue to run this campaign and see if the landing page will help it convert better. Hopefully, I will start getting more sales soon.

It sounds great. Actually I haven't used bing before. But if you want to get more exposure, you can use another platform also, like Facebook ads or Google Adwords as most people around the world use these 2 engines.

Thanks, Bing is more friendly towards affiliates and to me it's kind of risky to promote Clickbank products using Adwords. Facebook would be my 2nd choice because it has more traffic and more targeting options.

great job you have figured out how to get your first sale online now it's time to keep tracking the keywords that brought you the sales. now you should set up a landing page and split test them until you find your winner. then keep reinvesting your profits in scale up. Btw if you don't have it i suggest getting clickmagick.

If you are trying to increase your CTR the maybe you know your CTR is related to your ad position, which is related to the bid. I found it much easier to get a 15-20% CTR when your average position is in the top 3, and when your average position is 5+ even a 10% can be a challenge. So you may consider raising your bid and see what will happen.

Good luck

Thanks

it's BETTER direct that traffic to a SQUEEZE PAGE and then on the thank you page (the page which shows to the user after he has inserted the mail) direct at the product's sell page.

So you can market more visitors, attract more sales, without givin up the chance to sell directly to them

Of course an affiliate cannot claim any commission unless they have 5 credit/debit card transactions etc etc.

Click bank is truly pathetic to me at the moment and has cost me alot of money and yet you cant even buy. If you dont believe me look at your order form server calls in comparison to sales. I have now in two and half months about 27/28 FAILED attempts to buy products from my advertising and thus only one commission, guess how they paid - yep paypal.

At 30 bux a failed buy its now getting on for $810 US dollars im out of pocket not including advertising costs.

Honestly what a ******* joke. Is it fraud ? I dont know and I cant say but everything is there potentially for the crime to be completed, just a question of evidence. That would come from others checking the number of order form server calls against actual successful sales.

I am one truly unhappy camper as Ive done everything right and am going in the right direction - problem mine - nope, as usual always the same hell is other people.

am sorry to hear that from you but why you didnt try another aff. network ?

Im not sure why you say that. It says on Clickbank's website they accept payment methods such as American Express and MasterCard.

If you could only buy from Clickbank if you have credit in your Paypal, why would they require you have sales from 5 different payment methods before they will pay you.

What traffic source are you using?
Are you using a landing page or direct linking?
How are you pre-selling the product?

Most likely, the people who didn't buy did not want the product enough to go through with the transaction.

You will be making a very big mistake i you are directly linking. i wish i never did that when i started internet marketing. you can make 10x your investment if you will just collect those leads. Besides, make sure to track your campaign properly i recommend voluum as this will help you track specific keyword that are making sales.

The best way to track is by using a 3rd party tracker such as Prosper202 or Voluum.

If you want a free option to track and you are direct linking, you could create a separate ad group for each keyword then use a separate tracking ID for each keyword. This is more time consuming, so it's only feasible if you aren't bidding on many keywords.
