Adwords Journal - Sortof!

Discussion in 'Google AdWords' started by oworsnop, Feb 10, 2010.

    Read a lot of post's knocking Adwords as an advertising tool for affiliate products, but I have had some pretty good results in my first week or so, so I've decided to make a sort of journal which will be updated everyday with my progress. The sole affiliate company I am using is Clickbank, and I'm promoting two products in the same niche using 4 adverts and roughly 10 keywords overall.

    Any questions/comments/suggestions are more than welcome - I'm still learning too!

    So far:

    Adwords:

    Feb 1: Clicks: 54 Money Spent:$12.9
    Feb 2: Clicks: 72 Money Spent:$7.71
    Feb 3: Clicks: 47 Money Spent:$7.37
    Feb 4: Clicks: 46 Money Spent:$7.50
    Feb 5: Clicks: 27 Money Spent:$4.00
    Feb 6: Clicks: 38 Money Spent:$7.01
    Feb 7: Clicks: 79 Money Spent:$9.71
    Feb 8: Clicks: 95 Money Spent:$8.88
    Feb 9: Clicks: 66 Money Spent:$9.55

    Total: $74.63 - 9 days.

    Clickbank:

    Feb 1: Sales: 0 Total: $0.00
    Feb 2: Sales: 0 Total: $0.00
    Feb 3: Sales: 0 Total: $0.00
    Feb 4: Sales: 2 Total: $49.84
    Feb 5: Sales: 2 Total: $49.84
    Feb 6: Sales: 0 Total: $0.00
    Feb 7: Sales: 2 Total: $49.84
    Feb 8: Sales: 1 Total: $24.92
    Feb 9: Sales: 0 Total: $0.00

    Overall Total: $174.44

    Clickbank - Adwords = $174.44/74.63

    Profit = $99.81

    Any Questions?

    are you going to look at extending the keyword list and creating more groups?

    Is the niche seasonal?
