    I've got tracking on that'll allow me to know which ad, which campaign and even what the original search term was. It's very hard to get any meaningful figures from it though, as I'm not getting enough clicks - if you've only had 10 clicks and no conversions, there's no way you can make any meaningful inferences.

    As a whole, the conversions would have to be around 20%, visitor to lead, just to break even at these prices. I'd be amazed if anyone got those kind of rates unless they were giving away golden geese.

    That's what i mean the output really isn't good enough for the amount of money the user spends. I know i put 0.1 per click and i do make good ads and pick great keywords.

    I guess you have to use a offer that has good commission at least around $30+ so that when you finally do get that one sale, it pays for the rest of the advertisement, plus profit.

    Not worth it unless you are a merchant.

    The future trend is Pay Per View. It will attract traffic and help build your list.

    You need to have a high margin profit to make it worthwhile
