I m inspired by an email by Charles Ngo titled "How to Pull More Profit From Your Existing Campaigns" on 9th May. Below two sentences hit me and make me rethink.

Here's the mistake most affiliates make - they don't scale their first profitable campaigns to the fullest.
I know you're eager to build an empire.
You wanna "diversify" and build a portfolio of campaigns.
But I know I have to "master" one thing first.
You have to focus before you can dominate.

The above makes me pause and re-look at my portfolio and I pick one profitable campaign and test it out with zeropark RON pops. It is a cost per install offer. Tracking with CPVLab.
For a start, I set some rules to optimize and probably can revisit this rules again after getting the campaign profitable. Every target with 500 imprs and no conversions, I will pause. Check several times per day to optimize to prevent single target taking up too much of the budget. Starting my bid at 0.0001 and slowly increasing it to 0.0005.
At the end of day 4, I am face with a problem, it's really time consuming for every single time I check, I need to copy the target and check against my stats in CPVLab to see if there's any conversions. Take at a look at the below pic:
There's easily 70-80 targets per page and 24430 pages.
I thought I can't do this and certainly there's a better way to do this and so I paused the campaign. Meanwhile, I attended the Charles Ngo Affcelerator FastTrack Newbie course and attended an affiliates networking session, spoken with a few super affiliates. The next day, I thought I would make the switch to Voluum and so I did for the past 2 weeks, I familiar myself with Voluum and setup it up nicely. During this time, Zeropark introduced the source token which will comes in handy and I will talk on that later on.
Fast forward and now I can restart the campaign again with conversions automatically tracked in Zeropark, saving me the mundatory work to copy and paste and check against every target. Now I can just see and pause in zeropark platform.
One source can have very little targets or millions of targets, so I reckon if I pause one target too earlier, I might effectively killing off potential profitable targets without giving it a good run of tests but then again I admit the fact that I have to look at it and pause it at some point in time. So at end of Day 12, I decide to take a look at it.
I saw one source with $200 spent and no single conversions and so I decide to pause it and continue the rest.
I thought pausing the one bad source does the trick but then again on Day 14, it goes back to red region and day 14 is still ongoing and it is a live stats.
Now I am at a dilemna, should I continue with this compaign, really quite many traffic and targets in zeropark. How best or what set of rules I can follow to optimize this.
Any recommendations and suggestions are most welcome.
Any form of help is appreciated.
Thank you.
