CPC question

Discussion in 'Digital Point Ads' started by CBG, May 11, 2011.

    Ive created two campaigns, one CPM and one Inline Text Link (CPC).

    CPM is working fine, however CPC campaign is not getting any clicks what so ever.

    My CPC bid is $0.3, which makes Chance of your ad being used on a click: 75%

    So my question is why im not getting any clicks.

    Daily limit is set to $20. And yes the campaign is enabled.

    cheers

    Correct... but there is never more than one link in a single post. So indirectly you compete for placement (not cost, just the placement of the link itself) of the link with anyone who bid on just the keyword "bingo" by itself, since you could never have your keywords in a post without the word "bingo" in it.

    gotcha,

    ive also added 10+ more key words and their variations just so i can increase the chance to get a link back.

    on the other note I was wondering on how to get listed under those rotating adds ( bellow the header, next to the FB like button ). Ive already got CPM banner campaign on the header .

    cheers

    There is nothing special you need to do for the banner ads, you just create a normal banner ad really. There is some overlapping as far as the "Areas To Run Ads" goes. For example, if you were just specifying "Everywhere" for your banner ad, and you want your ad to show on this thread (for example), it would be the high bidder based on people bidding for space in the following 3 "areas":

    Everywhere
    forums.digitalpoint.com
    Digital Point Ads

    Since this thread is within the Digital Point Ads forum, within the forums.digitalpoint.com sub-domain and within "everywhere". You don't need to specifically bid on each of the three places, but if you only bid on "Everywhere", but someone was outbidding you on a forum specific area or sub-domain specific area, they may be bidding higher than you.

    I just double-checked your banner ad, and it's not showing currently because you already spent your daily spending cap you set. But I also confirmed that it DOES show on the home page (and everywhere else) when the daily caps reset after midnight.
