I found many people keep asking this, so I write this easy, yet short (but not too short) to effectively use YSM. First Things First 1) To get the free $100 credits, you have to sign up using special link. You can find one in my signature or simply click here. 2) To use the free $100 credits, you have to pay minimum $30 in advance. So your total credits is $130. 3) The $100 will be credited to your account approx. up to 72 hours. My experience is it's in 2 days average. 4) You must have credit card . But paypal is the best solution. Why? Read the Tips and Trick below. Now, The Tips 1) Use PayPal for payment. You can prevent automatic charge by YSM if you're using this option. Read steps below. 2) Make simple campaign first with 2-3 keywords with minimum bids (0.10) and put your daily spending limit to $2-$3 dollar. This will prevent your campaign to cost you much (or even not running because low bids). 3) If you've got the $100 credits, simply remove the YSM paylist in your paypal account. In paypal, Go to Profile->Pay List, and remove/cancel the YSM paylist there. Make sure that YSM is not there anymore. 4) Now you can tweak your account and daily spending limit (say $100) and put more keywords. When your balance is below your average daily spending for running campaigns, YSM can't automatically charge you. The Tricks 1) So you want to create another account when you're first one empty (or simply make another one)? Use different email address, and add this email address to your paypal emails. You can add up to 10 emails in your paypal profile. Use new email address for each account uniquely. 2) Now you can start over from the first step. Just remember to clear cookies when you want sign up again. 3) When you're ready to pay with Paypal, log in with the new email address you put in paypal. You've already knew the Tips, so just repeat it. Hope you find this useful. Ciao,
if you are a keyword master, this method will boost your earning for sure. so the key point is keyword and niche selection. you will use Yahoo that have different demography than other search engines. nothing to loose to try it, because you have enough room to make mistakes and learn from that mistakes. just dont make mistakes too often because it will burn your pocket.
Jabier you are asking DP members to cheat yahoo using your trick. ysm bans people by name and other information for fraud and this ban is lifetime.
I am not. I am just sharing information, just like the others do with Adwords tricks. Besides, can you show me in YSM TOS that one can't create multiple accounts? What if I need to create one account for company specific, and one for personal in YSM? You can read also in this thread : http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=557835
Huh good luck they will rape you. They suggest you fund 100, you change it to 30, they take 100 out of your paypal account anyway. The paypal signup is whack, you don't see what amount you are agreeing to. Oh, and also, you have to agree to let them hit your paypal account "whenevah". Very unhappy with them so far.
Farley, both creditcards and paypal have there own positives and negatives but paypal is good option for people who do not have creditcard and want to open account.
Thanks info. The issue is, YSM apparently has some preferred status at pp that lets them skip showing you what you will be charged, and just shows you an "agree and continue" button. p.s. sorry, all, about the strong language in my first post... if I could edit it I would.
