You only do single/simple one page campaigns with PPL and paid traffic?
Or do you also do blogs/SEO websites (multi page) for your niches? (real estate, finance, etc.)

I want to know how to track BingAds country ?

I can't find parameter country in list bingads.

example:
parameter {QueryString}: Search query text that the visitor entered.
parameter: {MatchType}Match type that triggered the ad (e=exact p=phrase b=broad c=content)

what is parameter country in BingAds? is parameter {country} or something else ?

Thank you

The best way is to simply make each campaign target 1 country only. For example, you can name it "Campaign A (UK only)" and then just target the UK with all ads and keywords with that campaign. That's usually the best way since most offers are generally only for one target country at a time and it allows you to better split test performance across multiple campaigns.

Hey Nick, great post. I've actually seen your website a few times.

So I plan to also do the PPC league. I was curious what's your choice w/ these High End networks for PPL, instead of JVZoo, WP, Clickbank etc. that have a very low barrier of entry cost then go through a funnel for potential higher conversion payouts?

Yes, it's definitely not consistent and yes, they need to put their payment info, but usually beginning offers are very low to get them in and once they already trust their payments with them, most conversions are actually pretty decent. However, payouts are slow and in the case of Clickbank, refund rates are volatile.

I do cloak, but I do completely agree white hat is the way to go.

Last Q, how much ROI% percent do you consider a winner? Or do you have enough capital that you don't care anymore as long as it's profitable? Thanks!
 
Thanks for this thread. What is your average CPC. I used Bing PPC for more than two years and I know the avg click for loan type offers is around $6 to $12

Hey Victorious - yeah sure, to your questions:

1) I tend to stick to private offers now, as most of the mainstream networks aren't as lucrative anymore and they take way too big a margin that could be passed on. I used to start off with CJ ages ago (secured loans before the credit crunch, I think it was like £80 a pop back then) but that was donkeys ago. It's all about who you know these days that makes a big difference.

2) Don't do cloaking or any black hat stuff - this business has to be 100% properly done or you will just end up with merchant complaints and burn any credibility. You want to be in this for the long haul ;) But if you do host and post, there's no more need to do cloaking anyway.

3) The key here is scalability - can you grow this product to go from a few hundred to a few thousand a month in profit? The ROI percentage therefore becomes irrelevant ;)

Depends on the product of course. It varies from £0.50 a click to £5.00 - as long as the keyword returns a positive ROI I keep it running. If not, I'll just pause it as no point burning a hole in your PPC pocket.

As long as every keyword returns a profit, you have a healthy and fully optimised campaign and how high your CPC really is doesn't matter anymore from a numbers and profitability perspective.

Hope that helps mate ;)

Thanks for doing this AMA.

1. Can you recommend some CPL networks to join to start with? What do you think of T3Leads or PingPost?
2. Do you use any tools such as SEMRush?
 
Getting a head start thank you Nick. I have some questions on how I should really begin this process. Are there any spy tools that you recommend to see what people are running so I can get an idea of what is already working? I love the idea of Lead Generation and the business behind it. I'm going to focus on mastering these offers with Adwords/Bing.

I would refrain from using any spy tools in general. Why? Because everyone has access to them which means you won't really get a competitive advantage.

They are good to cover some of the basics and get you started, however what you ultimately want to be doing is use your head and come up with the best combinations yourself ... as this is what will make your campaign a lot more robust and battle-hardened against the competition ;)

Hi Nic
I am a newbie but I own about 40 keyword .coms and 20 .com.au. Originally I was going to just buy and sell names but that does not pay a good risk/return ratio. I haven't made enough posts to be allowed to put in a site link but you can see some of my domains at vare.com.au I have just launched my first site to sell to advertisers for affiliate income engagementringssales.com. Would like to get your advice on which sites to run with first and the best affiliate programs to go with for each. I don't do porn or gambling (not judging anyone else) that is just a personal line I stay on my side of.
Thanks

Hey Evan

There is no way of knowing which type of product to run without having tested the market and thrown some PPC traffic at it to gather data and then analyse the ROI. Personally, I always stick to finance products that pay per lead and I try to avoid anything that is sales based, as it's a lot harder to gain conversions.

But most importantly, the domain name itself isn't really that crucial when it comes to PPC ... as you can pretty much register any short domain name that contains the main product you want to promote as a keyword. For organic traffic it will be, but I find paid traffic to be much more reliable, robust and easier to scale in a short timespan than building up an SEO site.

What I would do is try and select a CPL product that pays at least $20 bucks a pop and run it on your site with some paid traffic. That should get you started ;)

Hey!

As you are a super affiliate, are you currently co-braning with your merchant? I've read a bit about how merchants will often decide to co-brand with super affiliates, as sort of a endorsement for both parties. Wondering how it works if you are doing this?
Thanks!
