    not asking about details, but can you tell us what kind of advertising you use? for ex., a website only (daily traffic?), adwords, etc.

    Very nice.

    Is all the content from CJ ads? If so, is there an easy way to identify what the various links will look like [without having to first cut and paste and test each one in your site]? (I am very new to CJ and am still trying to learn the basics).

    i did adwords and i made a lot of money through word of mouth . . i would find certain products for people and they would go through and buy them . . . i also hooked up some offices with sandisks from TigerDirect.Com basically with these kind of sites you become a salesman for affiliates and whatever so i was just making sales. And to be honest with you i made this policy for myself to check CJ every three weeks :)

    I've been with CJ for about a week or two, and have made $0.00. I get about 100 unique visitors a day, and over the 2 weeks, a total of about 90 clicks. All the numbers are going up, but $0.00 in 2 weeks! Yow!

    OP, can you give an idea as to your number of visitors? Or how much you spend with AdWords?

    with CJ, as with most affiliate programs, you can more or less completely customize how you want things to look. it can be a plain text ad, a flash banner, an image, pretty much anything.

    most of the "stock" ads aren't so hot. tailoring them to suit your individual site will almost always yield a better CTR & conversion.

    in most situations text links will work better than the banner ads, custom or not.

    do some general reading on the topic.

    however, it's a lot easier to find affiliates to promote that you can get a good ROI on outside of the major networks than it is inside of them.
