    SmileyCentral. Yay or Nay?

    I noticed the niche has been pretty competitive for longer than I can remember with a few very consistent landing pages up. I figured these guys have gotta be banking so why not give it a shot. I threw together a few landing pages and threw $100 at it to see if it would stick. $100 - 344 clicks...

    Adwords Content Ad Delay?

    What kind of delay do you guys typically experience before your adwords image ads start to get impressions? It seems like the wait has been getting longer and longer.

    laugh for the night

    Was doing some ppc research and came across ads for Welcome. I can't imagine sending paid traffic to your terms & conditions would be very lucrative. Hopefully they've made use of budgets ... fuuck, that hurts. Useless thread though, so here's somewhat of a contribution: Don't RUSH your...

    Going direct with leads?

    I've been considering setting up a few lp's and collecting leads for a particular construction niche that is booming locally. I've got a few issues holding me back though. I'm sure dozens of you have done or are currently doing this so I figured I might be able to squeeze some details out of ya...

    CJ direct product ppc

    Considering pushing PPC traffic directly to CJ's merchant product links. Anybody had any recent success with this? I'm not opposed to building out full product sites but, in theory, direct PPC sounds like it might convert better. Especially if it's laser targeted down to a particular product or...

    latino dating aff programs?

    Anybody have any recommendations? Been searching for a while ... Amigos.com (adult friend finder) isn't converting very well for me. Also tried Migente.com from MaxBounty with no success. Preferably looking for something that's got more of an adult feel to it, similar to AFF.

    Any experience with Ask PPC?

    Good, bad, ugly? I guess they syndicate ads from Google ... but I have noticed their own ads above the Google ads. Haven't heard very much about them though, I'm sure traffic is nothing huge. Maybe there's some opportunity there?

    top ppc positions

    Anybody familiar with what drives a PPC ad to the top of the page instead of the sidebar ad block? I'm referring to keywords for which you are the only bidder. Do the SE's only open up that top spot once there is competition? or do you think its fueled by simply having an awesome CTR? maybe...

    adcenter ads won't show?

    Any special trick to getting adcenter to display ads? Third attempt using their system and I'm just about giving up again. All keywords are approved, ads approved, bids set for approx 3rd position, and budget set for $250 per day $7500 for the month. Not sure what I'm doing wrong? Unless...

    gmail storage counter

    Been killing myself trying to find a script similar to the gmail storage counter on their login page. A bunch of people have broken it down and explained that it uses dates as reference and then calculates (prorates) the current storage based on that. I've tore it apart myself but not being very...

    confirm alert when visitor hits back

    Seems like it would be pretty simple ... don't have much experience with javascript though. Looking for a script to pop a confirmation alert when a user tries to hit their browsers back button. Basically "Last chance: etc..." click OK to leave and CANCEL to stay. I have already been using one...

    nvm the google slap, what about yahoo

    Please tell me I'm not the only one with a list of 300+ KW's that are soon to be inactive because I won't give in and bid 500% more for them. Keep in mind that the landing pages for these campaigns are completely relevant, high quality, and keyword dense. Yahoos obviously trying to increase...

    Any tundra owners?

    Just bought an 05 tundra XSP today with 30k miles on it. Supposed to be the most reliable truck on the road ... that, and the XSP package had me won over from the get go. 20" enkei rims with 295/45/20 pirellis, chrome step bars, skid plate, and the color-leyed fender flares. Anybody have...

    Neverblue conversion inconsistency

    Simultaneously ran approx 200 clicks to them and 200 to another network today on the same offer ... came out with a huge 20% difference in conversion. I'm gunna let it ride for another day before I make any decisions, just seemed strange as hell. Anyone else?

    Considering giving their traffic a shot with a solid campaign I've had going for months ... anybody had any success with social media? From what I've heard they can supply an insane rush of traffic, literally opening the flood gates. Can anyone confirm this, whether or not theres any quality...

    Overcoming time zone differences

    Anybody have a solution for working with time zone differences between the search engines and CPA networks? This particular network is in the same time zone as YSM (pacific) but it seems YSM runs my stats on my timezone (Eastern.) I figured, I would just take the easy route and run everything on...
