Sales pick up!

Interestingly enough, it is PPC marketing that has begun to show promise. If you have been following this thread—who knows if I am just publishing this into a virtual black hole—you know I blew some money on PPC marketing. Well, when Wealthy Affiliates decided to offer a $1 trial membership, I remembered how I had agonized whether to join or not when I first heard of them. I was very leery of all of the "Get Rich Quick Schemes" on the Internet. And even though WA didn't use that claim It was associated with Internet Marketing and thus suspect. I would have loved to have a $1 trial to check out Wealthy Affiliate University.

So I thought why not promote WA's $1 trial directly to those who are in the position I was in? In other words, market to people who had already done the research and wanted to try WA, but were afraid of being ripped off. When I picked the keywords that were very specific to those people the clicks I was getting almost stopped. They went from the maximum number of clicks to 2 to 3 per day, but out of those I begin to get a sale about every 4 clicks whereas before I'd had 70 + clicks with no sales. So I will stick with this for the time being.

Until Next Time,

PPC Marketing

Ok, so I started too early.  I didn't intend to but I ran across a coupon that was suppose to give me $50 of free ads on Yahoo.  When I joined I was informed that the offer had expired.  Why me?  Anyway I had placed $150 in the account so I thought I'd give it a spin.  Well, nothing so far except watching Yahoo go Kaa-ching with my or what used to be my money.  I am learning though, learning all of the ways to lose money on PPC marketing.  I do know that it is possible to make money with PPC and I intend to find out.

So far I have found out that I am not converting, but I don't know whether it is my landing page or ads that are irrelevant.  I have changed up my landing page 3 times, if you care you can see the current one at www.thedietclearinghouse/stf.html.  By the way if you want a good diet buy this one while your there.
I am pretty psyched about the new up grades to Wealthy Affiliate that are going to be launched on September 15--stay tuned.  I will also update you on my PPC adventure.

Until Next Time,
