My experience so far..

April 20, 2009 on 9:47 pm | In Questions and Comments | 1 Comment

Hi,  Thank you so much for Affiliate Millions.  I have signed up for Commission Junction and have started running some campaigns on MSN and Google.   I clearly state in my CJ profile that I am a search marketer and will be promoting them through those means and also have a website but find that I am being rejected more often than not.  Is this because they simply don’t like search marketers?  I am wondering if I could be doing something wrong.

One other thing, although I have been accepted to some programs and have started promoting them  – as well as getting clicks – I have only made .97 cents so far!  I know I am new and will not give up but I was wondering if you have any words of wisdom?  (besides the ones found in your book) :)

Thank you so much.

  1. Hi Tara (dacktyl),

    I’m afraid that since I wrote my book a few years ago, that the industry has become decidely unfriendly toward Direct Search Marketing, and I have begun advising my readers to shift focus to landing pages and/or redirects.

    I have some help at http://www.AffilaiteMillions.com for getting started developing web pages, and I even have a couple free landing page templates you can use.

    I’ve also had some success with the websites I haven’t been able to make profitable by simply having my registrar redirect those domain names to online casinos. I only get paid for non-US traffic, but it still seems to do alright.

    Casino Blasters has the best program (36% to 50% LIFETIME commisions) and even if your domain just gets a few clicks a day, you’ll probably get a sign up or two a year.  Doesn’t sound like much, I know, but my average real gambler spends over $4000 (usually a few hundred at a time, but with multiple visits).  That’s over $1000 in commissions… if you choose the percentage program.  DO NOT CHOOSE the CPA program.  You can make WAY more on the percentage, because it is for the lifetime of the customers gambling. 

    Good Luck,

    Tony
