    np at all, i'm also quite new into affiliate marketing.

    I'm struggling at the moment :(

    anyways, really it isn't a good idea to do zip submit offer, payout way to low. unless your keywords are less than 5c and convert 1 in 15-20 clicks..It's not worth it

    I've only dabbled in PPC campaigns so far and haven't had any success. I'm hesitant to continue because it looks like it has the potential to be a very expensive learning experience.

    Lots of homework and costant tweaking just to turn a buck. More work than it truly is worth.

    When you launch new campaign, set budget limit

    If you don't want your campaign running forever, set campaign end date.

    Or if you don't want to use YSM for good.. just pause or delete everything..

    Affiliate always risk if you target incorrect or wide meaning keywords to get lead :)

    First of all, you cannot expect to be bidding 0.25 a click and get a positive ROI. You would need 1:4 visitors to sign up, so you don't lose any money. You need 1:3 to make money. 1:3 is extremely difficult.

    When I ran such campaigns, I was paying about 0.01-0.05 per click. And pulling in an 150% ROI.

    Contact Yahoo, and ask them to stop auto-billing.

    That's because superaffiliates DON'T use PPC.;)

    If people spent the money they spend on Adwords, on buying traffic direct from niche websites, they would make more money.

    I used to spend over 50,000 USD per month on adwords and make excellent profits.

    BUT. You need to be constantly on top of it, tweaking, making changes. It controls your whole life.

    I now make MORE money and I have cut out Adwords all together. Just don't use them anymore.:D

    never promote $1 leads with PPC unless you're paying 10 cents or less per click using ultra targetted traffic. I promote products with a 1:40 conversion rate that gives me $30 per sale and i only pay $0.08 per click. Just calculate my profit :D.
