I'm looking for a good way to advertise my credit card affiliate site (http://www.credit-card-apply-online-here.com). I first tried Google Adwords, but had some problems. The first problem is that most of the obvious keywords are ridiculously expensive. The second problem is that the way Adwords works, it doesn't matter if you find keywords that have almost no adwords for (low competition). Google already has some sort of "quality score" for these, and they insist you raise your bid to some large amount before they will show your ad, even if only 1 or 2 other ads are showing for this keyword. In other words, the keywords that Google thinks will convert into clicks already have lots of people bidding on them so the CPC price is too big, but Google also has a large min bid required on all the other keywords that Google has found don't convert into clicks. Now I'm trying Yahoo SM to see if that work. I also have a daily budget at GoClick of about $10, but after 3 days I have plenty of clicks and no sales, so I don't hold much hope for them. I would like to try some other paid advertising like CPM ads. I looked at ValueClick Media and their signup form lists a bunch of possible monthly advertising budgets, the lowest being $5000-$25,000. Yeah right. At this point I might be willing to spend $1000/month for one month to see if the traffic converts. Are there any good CPM advertising companies to work with for low-medium budget affiliate marketers like me? Thanks

I may able to guide you in PPC advertising and information, if you looking for some information on those areas, but before you advertise in any PPC make sure to have enough knowledge or somone to guide you properly otherwise u will be loosing hundreds of dollars in PPC for no conversion, so one should must have some knowledge about PPC to spent money on them to test.
For CPM it is base in publicity. The convertion is not sure, else may advice you to have some affiliate community to help promote it, example like CJ
