Made $250 With CJ This. How I Can Increase It?

Discussion in 'Commission Junction' started by jijigren, Jun 25, 2009.

  1. #1
    I just starting with affiliate marketing this month and I feel like loosing months as I focus too much on Adsense before. Yesterday I made a sale worth more than $500 and my commission is $98. This sale is simply from a small banner I put on on the top right of my blog. Total for this month with CJ is $244.72. This open my eyes as bis as watermelon cuz on the same day I made only $80 with Adsense from about 500 clicks!

    I begin to fall in love with affiliate marketing but can anyone who is more experience give me tips from how I can increase my earning with CJ? what is the methods that always work? Thanks a million in advance :)

    post often and just keep sending traffic to your blog, if the ads are relevant to your readers you should do well. and yes, adsense is no good.

    I think affiliate marketing do not like adsense, you site/blog should write as a sales letter, instead of only provide information and let viewer to click your ads.

    I started CJ three weeks ago. I have had 130 clicks, highly targeted, and not a single sale.

    I do much better with AdSense. Great clickthrough rate and high revenue per click. :)

    Even now I did more with adsense but from my analysis I can make more on affiliate marketing. I made another $30 in commision today. Means by increasing my effort and as the previous post suggest, I should write blog post like sales letter. Now that is something I got to learn :cool:

    One option, reach a larger audience. Try some viral traffic methods or you can go with the paid ones. Research through the threads and I think you will come up with something. Nothing is really new these days, so see what other people are doing.

    I had CJ on my site for 2 yr, just made two sales this month for $26 commission.
    My idea was to have a site offering free something I normally charge for - then if the user doesnt see what they want, I have affiliate ads so they can buy it - often at a discount. Not sure if this is a good business model - only have 30 uniques/day now and Google just dropped my PR from 3 to 2. wtf

    with CJ its all about research and keep promoting different affiliates and you will find out quickly even in the same niche you convert a lot more of on stuff than others

    If you have shitty traffic you should use adsense. If you have targeted traffic, put cj banners :p
