So I've got my landing page ready for this offer with a $4.50 payout without even realizing what a competitive and highly saturated niche this offer is part of. Obviously, I shouldn't be paying around $6/click so I was wondering if any of you have any suggestions or maybe some recommendations for some other PPC networks where cheaper clicks can be bought. Thanks.
 


Yahoo is always good. Can definently be cheaper. You may also want to try adbrite. Also work on getting your quality score up. By optimizing your onpage content, as well as getting quality linkbacks.
 
Im using keywords phrases with 6 words in em and $2 bids has me in an average position of 30... for fucksake. My quality score is GREAT on all keywords, so much for 6c minimum bids.
 
- Broaden your list and test closely related niches. You can sometimes find goldmines that way, and cheap cpc's.

- Also, lower your bids with a higher QS through precise keyword-to-ad-to-landing page relevancy.

- Group your keywords in very small adgroups and bid on phrase and exact match for a start.
 
<loop> open a virtual credit card, buy a $50 or more google coupon and open a google account with that credit card and bid $6 per click. </loop>
 
Pretty much every niche offered on the big networks is now saturated with affiliates. The networks only offer 10 or so types of offers-dating,debt,ringtones,etc and they're all quite saturated.

It's still very possible to make good money if you're clever.
