    Hi,
    I am running a compaign since 5 days and having good positions also regarding keywords.
    I have till now spend $3.43 and earned $0.31 in adsense. It seems clicks are not converting well or i am being impatient ? :confused: I am not having good experience regarding adcenter i am planning to start my compaigns in yahoo as yahoo has better traffic.

    Yeah you are better off using Yahoo, Msn traffic is to slow to make any judgement as to whether your campaign is profitable or not

    I'm not sure that Adsense arbitrage is that easy. You might try driving the traffic to an affiliate program or, better yet, develop your own product/service.

    That is a BIG nono. Don't try to make money from adsense by driving paid traffic to your site. You should rather register for an affiliate program and try to advertise that. Commission Junction is a good one., just find a good paying program, apply, get accepted, and start advertising it.

    Again, you won't get any money with advertising your adsense site, unless you are a very experienced advertiser.

    Yes, you should use affiliates as your prmiary target on your landing pages. Maybe place AdSense too, but that is just gravy when funneling paid traffic.

    try CPA networks like hydra, copeac, never blue ads or affiliate programs like moreniche, worldniche, joebucks etc. make some decent cash rather than blowing your bank wishing to make bucks with adsense!

    but before you do anything i recommend you to learn it first. PPC is a risky business if you dont know what you are doing....just my 2cents.

    I think everyone would like it fed to them on a silver spoon ;) Sadly, it is not as easy as that. It takes thought, trial and error and the ability to take the ups with the downs - for as many making thousands, there are plenty losing just as much.

    You might weed some good info out of this subforum: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/forumdisplay.php?f=22
