    For the last two weeks I had been waiting for a sale to come in (to be honest all i had done was install it, change the design, add 2 articles as pages, and submit them to ezines) but I hadn't got anything from the visits.

    I was almost ready to chuck in the towel and give up, and then today I got two sales! Only $2.54 but that is about 2 weeks of adsense wage for me :D

    Now my faith has been renewed I am adding a blog to the website and promoting individual products as well from the blog -as well as some informative articles.

    My goal now is to make it to $20 in commission by the end of the month, and $100 by the end of december.


    So, now I have set some pretty big goals is there anyone out there that can throw me some tips that will help me out :D

    you did'nt say how much traffic you are getting?? you need traffic to make some money, the more targeted the better. I know stating the obvious.

    if you do not want to run some adwords campaigns then you really have to seo like crazy. i am running adwords on one of mine and making more than spending, with around 100 uniques per day am making around $120 profit per month with one site.

    two sites no conversions (minimul) so have dropped adwords for them and wait for the organic traffic to come, fourth site now making average $4 per day profit after adwords costs. thats a uk site and profit low due to lower commissions.

    commissions are better also in the us than the uk or oz so if you have a choice target there. none of my sites are really getting much organic at the moment as all four domains are less than two months old. a couple did but then they just vanished.

    i am now building link, digg, stumble deli etc. also i have one site and have put a page with a youtube video that i change every few days, this actually gives you a backlink from youtube as well which all helps.

    don't give up....not after two weeks it will take a while just with organic traffic....keep at it.


    ps make sure you have a sign up link too, i just use a text link and i was amazed that i actually have people signing up and then winning auctions that is US$25 a time can make a big difference.
