thanks, i am new to cj and i have more than 200 clicks but with no sale try to find some better merchants.
Usually I get 60 click with 2 sales, my commission 15%/sale. make a niche/specific site with target 1-2 merchant only
ive been using the method from an ebook that went round a while back with dating sites, the jewelrey club and a few more which have worked. the jewelrey club offers free gemstone jewelrey (u just pay p&p) i did some classified ads to an autoresponder which directed them to site and iv have quite a few sales from it.
Using only 5-bar merchant limits you to the top 5% of programs in terms of payout. There are some top affiliates making tens of thousands of dollar a month from 4 bar programs, and if you've got a good niche, you can do well with even 1, 2 and 3 bar programs. EPC isn't also 100% telling, my EPC is generally significantly higher than a program's average EPC. It's all about targeting.
What your saying is that just about any program that is in CJ would be a good one to use if you can find the right niche?
A program that is in cj is the niche, whjat you have to do is generate quality targeted traffic to it, no point sending someone looking for house insurance to a car insurance site, things like that I look for high EPC 7day/30day also 3-5 bars, then i check out all the new Merchants in order to get in there first =) Biggest earners are credit cards and loans i believe these also cost the most on adwords so you have to find some middle ground if using adwords, maybe use smaller engines?
Welcome to DP buddy I had good experience with austads golf however you won't make good money if you don't generate lots of sales Good luck
