I’m afraid to say that over the last few days my campaigns have suddenly gone from making $150-$200 day in revenue with around $50-$100 profit each day to making $0 a day in revenue and losing me money. To be totally honest I have no idea why, I haven’t changed a thing on my side and once I had a few days of 0-1 leads per day I swapped the offers around and they don’t convert either.

I’m still getting loads of impressions/clicks on the once converting keywords so I guess I will have to look into it in more detail when I get time but while I’m a little busy with other things I have paused all of my affiliate marketing campaigns.

This is the prime time for Paul to catch up and take the lead in the last 5 days of this competition and I can’t do much about it bar watch his stats build up. On a good note I have plans to launch a new campaign on Monday and the payout per sale is much higher than I’ve done before, a whopping $56+ per lead but I must admit it’s a very tough niche to crack. It means I will have 2 solid days to try churn out as many leads as I can get which will soon bump my revenue up this month.

I’m in no rush though to get this up and running, the more you rush a campaign the more chance of missing a vital step out and failing miserably or it costing you shed loads of money. I just have to write my ads and upload it and it’s ready .

Anyways back to my problems, I’ve been speaking with my affiliate manager and other people in the industry and no one can quite explain what could have happened because I’m still bidding on the keywords that used to convert well for me and the impressions are still showing up in my networks account (tried offers with Market Leverage as well as Azoogle) but just 0 leads so there is nothing wrong with my links.

I’m going to download the campaign and tweak the keywords again removing anything that didn’t convert and then review my landing page to cut out the one with the worse CTR and then throw a variation of the other one to try and reduce my bounce rate.

Just because it seems to have flopped doesn’t mean I’m going to scrap it and move on, it used to be a good campaign for me and I’m sure I can get it back up and running making me a profit.
