Anyone promoting from web? IE from their own sites?

    Hey,

    I'm new to Azoogle and just had a couple of questions about web promotion. If you're promoting from your own sites, do you typically use the banner creatives of Azoogle offers on the site itself and link straight to their landing page?

    Or, do you make the links from your sites even more contextual and link to your own landing page (say, a quiz), that then links through to the final product landing? I guess I'm asking this in the context of zip/email/free stuff offers.

    Finally, for a celebrity-style audience, any obvious recommendations other than ringtones?

    Thanks a lot.

    This blog may help you out with stuff like this: www.zacjohnson.com

    He's runs stuff on his websites and not through PPC. You could consider stuff like screensavers, mouse cursors, crap like that.

    Yes i do... text/contextual seems to work the best. Banners do work but Conversion aren't as high.

    Thanks, that's what I'm starting to guess as well. What I'm noticing is that for my competitors' sites are running adsense for affiliate offers that first get clickthroughs from a quiz offer, then the quiz sends them to an aff. zip or email submit.

    I figure if these campaigns are working for them, I could eliminate the middle man (not use adsense) and offer links to my own quizzes, etc.

    Does this make sense?
