Over the past month I have focused on increasing CTR’s across the entire campaign. In this particular campaign I have managed to increase the CTR by 6 times what it use to be in just one month. Take a look at the picture below for an image of this:
The most surprising thing is I did this all without creating new text ads. All I did was I removed all the irrelevant sites and keywords that my ads were being displayed on. This not only means I increased my quality scores across this campaign, but it also means that I decreased the number of people visiting the site who were not buying products and kept visitors that were buying products. The bottom line is, I have the same number of sales and less costs going towards advertising.
I know it’s been a while since my last post, but I’ve been busy working on AdWords trying to get everything more refined and easier to implement.
I think I may have stumbled upon a new method helpful for beginners and current users of AdWords. I think I have found a way to to bypass quality score issues and get targeted/profitable traffic to any site. Since this new method eliminates most quality score issues, it allows you to add keywords without worrying about them being negatively affected by your account history or poor performance. I’m working on testing out this strategy now and will get back with the results (of course whenever I test something out I record it so other people can benefit from watching…plus it make it easier for you to copy me). So far the results on the campaigns I’ve tested it on have been helpful. Plus, I’ve noticed that it increases the profits, traffic, and quality scores throughout the entire account so hopefully this will be a killer new strategy.
Anyway, I’m thinking that I can get this strategy nailed down by the end of the month and can include the strategy in the updated version of GMoneyPro and the videos in Google AdBreach.
This is a video I found on my computer today that i forgot to upload in the past. Even though it’s a bit old, everything in it is still accurate (eventhough some of the pages have changed in appearance in Google and ClickBank). Basically the video shows you how to add the correct URL to Google AdWords and how to make sure you’re getting credit for all your sales.
Just received an email from Terra Goeres (ClickBank’s Client Development manager) informing me that I made it into ClickBank’s Premeir Elite for 2010. Basically, this means that ClickBank added up the sales figures for everyone in ClickBank over the past year and the amount they came up with for me was high enough to rank me in the top 100 of everyone in ClickBank. Unfortunately, they don’t tell me my rank and they don’t tell me how much I sold (although i can figure this out) so there’s not much i can go on to say how much was required to get in the top 100 for 2010.
Anyway, you get a few perks such as an account manager and faster product approvals/customer service as well as a certificate they mail to you sometime late in February. So I’m looking forward to that. I’ll post a picture of it when I receive it.
I’m looking forward to helping some of you to get into the ClickBank 100 very soon!
With internet marketing, it’s always important to know what’s going on with other affiliates so you can learn tips, tricks, and things to avoid. But the question is, where do you find this information?
You need to be careful where you get some of your information, because there are a lot of websites out there that give “false information” to scare people into listening to them rather than listening to their competitors. These websites include certain ezine articles, blogs, and other personal pages where amateurs can easily create an article without knowing what they’re talking about or just to persuade people to listen to them and buy the products they recommend.
So where should you go to find the best free information about making money online? There’s one place that never fails…the forums. Internet Marketing forums are often the best places to go to get information on what’s going on in the internet world. Since hundreds or more people participate in forums, there’s no risk of getting false information because other members will correct false statements.
There are a few internet marketing forums that I recommend:
The four forums above are the ones I go to the most frequently to browse and see any new techniques, strategies, or internet marketing news is available.I recommend participating in at least one forum…just don’t devote several hours per day to it because there are more important things such as making money.
Combining AdWords and ClickBank correctly has the potential to make anyone a ton of money online. Unfortunately it’s very easy to make small mistakes costing you your profits with AdWords and ClickBank. Below are some tips to help make you more money with AdWords and ClickBank
Google will not display two advertisements for the same website even if two different affiliates are using the same keywords.
Use your hoplink as your destination URL and display the main domain as the Display URL, this way it doesn’t appear that your advertisement is from an affiliate and it looks more professional.
Increase your CTR by capitalizing the first letter of each word in your text advertisement.
If you use Dynamic Keyword Insertion, remember that it won’t work in the contextual network so always have two or more ads when using DKI.
The way ClickBank cookies work is the first cookies placed on the visitors computer is the affiliate that will get the sale. This means if someone clicks on two different affiliate links to go to the same product, the sale will go to the affiliate who was on the first link they clicked even if the visitor purchased the product from the second affiliate link.
Don’t display your advertisements world wide. Instead focus your advertisements only towards the countries that the product can be used in. For example, a Hummingbird book should only be sold in North America because it is the only place Hummingbirds naturally live.
The above AdWords ClickBank tips will help you to increase your sales and profits with Adwords and ClickBank. Just remember to check your AdWords account daily to make sure everything is running as smoothly as possible. Once you begin making a profit and your account is setup the way you won’t you will be able to go a couple weeks at a time without having to check your account.
