Congratulations.

Could you expand on what you did to get those sales? and how much you had to invest?

[dfveteran]

Awesome. I wish you luck. I just started with them 3 weeks ago. Clickbank seems to be good so far.

Um. I will work on a good description. But for now, I basically just used adwords to list my sites.

That description sucks.... Promise a better one is coming

I used a lot of different ad variations. Finally came accross a system for making ads thats working. Well for two days it has worked, we'll see if it lasts before I try to give anyone advise.

The costs for the two days of ads is less then $20.00. The costs I've spent in the last two months or so experimenting and failing; $300-$500.

I had good CTR but no conversions. Now I have a bad CTR but many conversions.

Wow! Congratulations! Again, best of luck!

So I still haven't thought of the best way to explain my thought process, but I'm gonna try because my last post is really just no help at all... And I'm not 100% it's gonna work, maybe i just got lucky. I was just so excited to finally see money in that damn account; I had to say something.

First, I picked very specific products. Not just "software" but "spyware remover". For my keyowrds, I didn't use generally terms, I use very specific ones, like the name of the brand I was selling.

Second, I wanted my ads to only get clicked by people ready to spend money on the product; so I put the costs in the ad.

Third, I wanted to headline them with "Do not click here", but adwords wouldnt let me use the word click. I changed it around to make it work.

My theory is that the only people clicking , a) want this particular product because they searched for it specifically and b) they are ready to pay the price because my ad sayd dont fucking click here unless you can $39.95

Thats why my CTR sucks, but it only cost me $3.00 or so to make almost $250....

Hope thats a little bit better.

Thats a pretty smart idea.

What's your cost per click?

[CiD743]

My highest avg cpc is 0.72. My for all of my ads is about 0.50

Update: The remainder of yesterday to today ending up costing me $18.00 with no new sales.. so theres still a chance i was just lucky...

if you have some extra money to invest into the business, you might want to hire an internet marketing company who specializes in keyword analysis. They can do a lot better job finding the best keywords than just using the google keyword tool. There's a lot of information about keywords that isn't included with free services.

So, it has been almost 30days since my "premature" celebration. Although I have still had continued mild success with clickbank, I am experiencing extreme highs and lows.

I have been working tirelessly to correct this problem and can't seem to figure it out. All of my sales come from the beginning of the week and always 1pm or later. The weekend merely costs me money. I run ads for many different products in many different industries, so logic would dictate they should not all be purchased at the same times.

I will continue to work on a correction for this issue and post an answer once I have one. Until then, if you have any insight, please post it.
