New Record: $10,000/day
-
Boy am I on a roll this month, as mentioned in a previous post, last month was a real turning point for me. I learnt a number of new skills and more importantly I got off my ass and integrated them into my campaigns relaunch – with all this in mind it’s definitely paying off and this month is going really good. It’s only been 5 days and I have already doubled last month’s total profit
Spend – $4,267.70
Revenue – $12,552
Profit – $8,284.30
ROI – 194.12%From now I will be switching to doing monthly records opposed to daily, my record month so far has been April when I managed to generate $69,913 in revenue. Fingers crossed this month will be in the 6 figures to achieve another of my 2009 goals.

Do you recommend hand picking site placments on the content network, or working with themes/topics? either way I assume you track and remove the poorly performing sites.

@ Anton – Thanks, I’m trying to squeeze the most profit out of it at the moment is that means a little loss on ROI. I guess end profit is what counts
@ Alex – At this moment in time I’m working on the themed adgroups method by picking 15-30 keywords per adgroup. Yeah I use prosper so I have the data after I have updated the converted sub ids and I will remove any sites that don’t convert for me.
I found a thread on wickedfire about automating that process, it logs into your networks, pulls the sub ids and updates prosper. That looks promising so I’ll keep you updated on that side of things.

Damn Richard, what your formula?
I’ve been left way behind. I had a record day yesterday as well but it was nothing comparing to you. I made 1.1k yesterday. But my profits are the worse. I spend $800 to make $1100. I’m profiting just little under 300. I’ve tried everything to turn this campaign around but I just can’t seem to raise my profits. The potential is huge. I can up my revenue very easily but I’m not doing it since my will stay the same. So what’s point?

well done Richard, your income this month is pretty impressive.
my best working campaign is on Google Content (placement, but nowhere near your numbers (rather in the $100-$200 per day revenue, $40-$80 profit).
I have been doing 1 kw = 1 adgroup as I am used to do on search network.
Do you think it would be more effective to group kws in an adgroup?
also, as apparently you cannot track at a keyword level for Yahoo content network (I get “NULL” as a subid with P202).
Cheers
Florian

Wow Richard! That’s amazing!
Yesterday you broke New Record $5,000/day, and now it doubled.
Btw, I’ve been just starting Google Content Network two days ago. Yesterday it was 46 impr and no clicks.
Would you like to give me some good resources for implementing Google Content Network?

@ Niche Affiliate Marketing – Have you tried to increase your quality score and get cheaper clicks to give you more room to play with?
@ Florian – Defo use 15-30 keywords in each adgroup, the content network is a different ball game compared to search. I’ve been tracking at adgroup level for content as that’s whats your looking for right?
You should also be tracking the referrer that sent the conversion. Then you can sinlge out any sites that are not converting for you to increase ROI.

@goblogging – I will try to find the time to get a quick guide to the content network as that’s where I’ve found pretty much all my success.

Congrats! Richard can you tell us if your income is mostly from search or content?

Hi Richard,
Are you using a landing page for this $10k/day campaign? If so, would you say using a LP had the greatest impact on your conversions?

Richard, definitely you should create a mini-guide to content network. Lot of people will love to get it.
Here is an idea. You can create a free mini-guide and hook it up with an opt-in list. Create a paid guide when you have enough follower in your list you can pitch to and will buy your ebook.
But definitely, even to affiliates who can generate somewhat revenue like myself with find you mini-guide very useful.

@ Jason – mainly the content network yeah.
@ jayl – Thanks man, if you subscribe to my blog you will be notified when it’s up and ready to go
@ JT – Yeah I am using a landing page for it, I’m not sure if it had the greatest impact on conversions but I think it really did help.
@ Niche – That sounds like a great idea to to be honest, I might look into that idea more and get a mini guide up as a teaser. I’ll have a think

The growth potential in AM never ceases to amaze me. That’s what is so alluring to me… you can literally go from doing $1K a month to $500K a month within a year…

Tell me about it, well it shows in my l;ast few posts. One day was $5,000 in revenue, the very next was just over $12,000 and I’m more than likley going to hit 5 figures again today.
It’s just a case of keeping things as consitant as possible.

@ zalds – Yeah I am only running in one main niche at the moment. I’m looking forward to trying to scale the hell out of it pretty soon.

Hi Richard,
If you ever get tired of making money and fancy taking a break, I’m sure many people like myself would love a post on your early days. How much you started with, any setbacks, bumps in the learning curve etc. Hopefully it’ll be a bit of inspiration for us mere mortals!

I have started using a service called StatsJunky that centralizes tracking and stats reporting of all your affiliate campaigns, down to the keyword level.
You have your revenues automatically updated from all your CPA and other affiliate networks through the APIs StatsJunky has developed, same with the PPC engines data (Adwords, Yahoo, MSN, …).
I had used Prosper202 before but it is getting time consuming logging into the different networks and PPC engine accounts to get an overview and make changes to the campaigns.
This software (statsjunky) which resides on your desktop really saves a lot of time, from one to several hours of work everyday…
For me this is changing the way I work, and I can much better concentrate on optimizing my campaigns as I have all required info at one single spot.
You can check it out at:
http://goto2.com/statsjunky (yes, my affiliate link, but if you don’t want to give me credit that’s alright, you can type in the main domain in your browser).
In all earnest, a must have tool for affiliate marketers. Haven’t found anything comparable that works as well, and yes, I had checked out Prosper202 Pro which costs more and is much more tedious to work with…
my 2 cents

Florian, thanks for bringing statsjunky to our attention. As the business grows, you definitely need a good central tracking system. So far pixel placements and sub tracking with PH code was enough for me but as the campaigns grow, something more centralized would make things simpler.

Congrats Richard,
Just a few questions :
1.Did you use polls?
2.What is your method to get good campaigns and converts into ROI?
3. Any tips, as when to stop campaign, parameter??
4. How many keywords did you upload to content?(above 2000 keywords?)
Thanks Richard, if you have time to answer my questions and Congrats to your success.

Thanks Ari:
1) Nope
2) Trial and error I guess, I keep trying to expand on keywords etc to see if I can scale it that way. Some sets will work, some wont.
3) I usually stop it if it’s spent 3-4 times the payout without any lead
4) I would say I uploaded about 20-25 adgroups in the beginning then watched which ones converted and deleted the rest, I have about 10-15 at the moment which seem to make up the majority of my rev – I am in the process of expanding this.
