    I have been with CJ for a bit over a year now and I am just starting to clear my first profits. I am doing 100% keyword campaigns on Adwords for Printer cartridges, travel sales, ebay and a few others. With each company I find myself making quite a bit of money in the first week or two and then the profits dropping off to nothing. Most of my monthly checks are 2k+ but much has been offset by adwords until I started making a small Profit

    For instance at the end of 2006 I made about 8 sales in 3 days for 123Inkjets. Now I have made 0 sales in the past 3 days. The same follows with many of my affiliate companies. Maybe im doing something wrong as I start tracking my keyword. I just don't understand it. Here is the process I follow with a new campaign. Maybe you can spot my error

    1) Setup campaign on adwords using 1000-1500 Keywords generated with seobooks keyword list generator with at least 6 ads

    2) Wait 2-3 days then delete the weak ads and tag all keywords with at least 4 clicks with a SID as well as my different Ads with a SID. I format it like this www.CJlink.com?sid=hpink

    3) Add more SID's and further work with my ads to get the best CTR

    Questions:
    1. Am I doing anything odd here?

    2. Could the fact that I am using SID's for my ads and my keywords cause any conflicts?

    3. Does it matter what the SID's are as far as length or contents(they dont always exactly match the keyword)

    Email CJ and your merchant with a list of all the links you are using and ask them.
