Ringtone Adwords...Got Screwed. COPEAC

[aim]

Yeah, you should switch up your strategy, because that's obviously not working.

I always aim for at least 10% conversion rate. If I'm not getting that, I switch up my strategy.

My stats today (on one ringtone campaign)

145 24 17% $10.50 $252.00

I've found google does beat you down for about 2 weeks then if you're not broke or have given up, they'll let you make some money.

Evil bastards

Whats with all these posts lately?

See, some people actually make a living online and when they run into a problem, they like to ask questions about it. If you did anything besides postwhore, you'd understand this.

I actually had better ringtone results running an ebay classified than from PPC

 

[Xrproto]

you should have one at least.

With ringtones you will lose money if youre doing it for the first time in google in my experience. I call it the google beating, it seems like google penalizes you for a few weeks then all of a sudden it turns around without changing anyting, i wonder if they do it to shake people out.

Anyone else ever notice that?

Yeah I have.

I got like 30 impressions through adwords for one, didnt see any conversions so I left it alone.

This is perfectly inline with their "informal corporate motto" of "don't be evil." :anon.sml: I suppose their interpretation of informal means they don't really have to abide by it, it just SOUNDS good when they're looking for money. HAH!
