    How many days has it been since you've been running the ads? Listen if you are getting that many clicks and they are Iphone related I would honestly just wait, remember it takes time for the transactions to complete they don't just happen over night, I suggest you give it 1-2 weeks to see any results however I think you might begin raking in some serious earnings very soon. Patience is the key.

    First of all you have to wait 2 weeks to see the results.

    If you don't see any revenue it's because you have non converting traffic.

    I bought popunders just to test and I got 10.000 clicks but $0.57 revenue.
    (imagine if popunders brought in money that would have been the easiest money making method ever!!!).

    Be careful with direct urls. They seem to track robots.
    I placed a lot of direct urls on a blog and pinged each one. The result was a lot of clicks that day, but that blog had little or no visits, so it seems that the direct url counted all the webbots that came after the ping.
    You can try wrapping those urls with a javascript.

    I'm not 100% sure about this statement, but each time I tried direct urls, a lot of clicks showed in my reports. More clicks than the real traffic of my site.

    Hope this helps

    it all comes down to quality of traffic. This is the primary reason alot of people are moving to a CPA model because they have dealt with the non converting PPC model for so long from network sites that have nonconverting users. As the web makes the shift towards CPA advertising model, more and more publishers will come to realize the true value of their traffic. What is your website? Subject matter? Where does you traffic come from? By answering these questions you will answer yourself on why your traffic does not convert

    In my humble opinion auction ads is overrated. Adsense is far superior. The problem with auction ads is that it requires your vistors to purchase stuff which may work if you have a lot of traffic or very targeted traffic, but otherwise you won't get any conversions.

    Also, there is no need for auction ads when you can just sign up for the ebay affiliate program yourself and put the ads yourself. You get to keep 100% of the commision this way.
