What Would YOU Like to See?

July 15th, 2008 Derek

A picture of a guy thinkingHey guys, as most of my faithful readers have noticed, I try very hard to produce information that will truly benefit you in affiliate marketing.  I’ve written a ton of my content on a more business type style and try to stay away from being too personal as I feel that you guys read this blog to succeed in making money online and I only wish to help!

I’ve written articles on Split Testing Ads, Split Testing Landing Pages, Using PHP to Redirect Affiliate Links, Using .htaccess to Redirect Affiliate Links, etc.

My question is, I would love some input from you guys on what type of content you would like to see published.  Is there a certain topic you would like me to write about?  Would you like to know how to do something that you think is a little technical that I could explain a little better maybe?  Whatever it is that you guys would like to learn, I would love to write about it!

So, in the comments below, let me know what you’d like to see!  Heck, if you would like to see a few more personal posts every now and then, then simply let me know!  As always, to be fair, majority rules!

Based on your PPC experience:
-What time and day do certain offers convert most?
-What type of offers do convert most during the summer?

For an affiliate starter:
-Based on your experience so far what offers do really convert(i.e. the buying behavior)? in what seasons?
-What offers do convert throughout the year and on the long run(i.e. offers that keep converting all the time?

More info. related to offers would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I’m a ‘newbie’ so I can’t really ask you what to write. All I can say is that I really like everything you’ve already written and reading your texts makes me more confident! Congrats, you’re doing a great job!

Hi Derek,

I think putting all the different bits together so we can do a complete casestudy from idea generation through to profitable PPC campaign covering all the bases in order (keyword research, grouping keywords, writing ads, designing landing pages, setting up tracking, testing and tweaking) to bring a campaign into profitability.

And I mean an *actual* case study – more “this is what I have doe today” rather than “this is what I *would* do”.

Well, I’d like to see more of everything! lol

I currently have a site that isn’t converting plus my PPC campaign sucks! I am getting impressions, my ads are ranking in the top 8 positions, but I am getting hardly any clicks! The clicks that I do get don’t convert and I am not sure what is going on.

I am pretty sure that I am not alone and that there are a lot of other new affiliate marketers like myself with these problems. There are just so many variables and things to test that it is hard to know where to start!

I’ve read your posts on split testing landing pages and ads. I’ve done the ad split testing part but still no conversions. No reason yet to split test landing pages since I am getting very little traffic.

I have a friend who is sort of in the same niche that I am in, though this niche has A LOT of little sub-niches as I like to call them. And from what he has told me, he is making some good money with his site. He has told me that he has had a few $1000 days. He has shown me his site so I looked it over and took some notes and added a few things to my own site. But it just isn’t working!

I would really like to know where to start. I am thinking of redoing my entire site and just focusing on one of the sub-niches in the main niche as my domain fits the sub-niche really well.

I think one of my first problems is either finding keywords that convert or something with my ads that will get more people to click. Do you think it could be the keywords that I am targeting? Or do you think it is more likely my ads that are posing the problem? I realize it may be hard for you to answer those questions without seeing my campaign, so if you need further info please let me know!

I’ve made a total of 2 sales so far, which has put me about even with what I have spent for PPC, but I obviously want to be in the green and making money.

I have read quite a few different make money blogs such as uberaffiliate.com, shoemoney.com, zacjohnson.com, neilsweb.com and so on. And have read all their posts on writing great ads that have high CTR but I just can’t seem to get it to work :(

Sorry for the long post ;)

I’d have to agree with Jarret; I think post PPC campaign launch information would be really great.

Here are a few ideas: What’s the best way to discover converting keywords that can be expanded on, what’s the fastest way to get a campaign profitable, how long until you know whether to pursue or bail out of a niche, how to minimize losses and maximize gains, stuff like that.

Hey guys, great suggestions keep them coming. Hopefully these ideas can give me a fresh start on the blog. I love writing, however, I figured I’d ask about what because the reason I enjoy writing this blog is because I get to help other affiliates out! If I don’t know what you guys need help with, then I can’t help!

So keep up the comments, ideas, etc.

Another question…What about SEO affiliate stuff? Would you like to see some more of that?

Also, I would like to mention, to the person that mentioned case studies, that we do in fact do them in our paid forums. I have to be honest, I’ll probably never go step by step though the entire process outside of the forum. I’m not trying to promote the forums really, just wanted to let you know that they are there. In fact we are in the middle of one right now.

I would want to see a tutorial on how to make money with CPA. I know the basics , but I just can’t find information, tips, tutorials on promoting CPA.

I would personally love to see some personal posts. And pictures or videos of large cheques, bank wires, or affiliate network reports.

Inspiration and motivation are priceless commodities…
