    When I first started, I had my hoplink as www.blahblah.com/hop?blahblah

    I felt like the biggest idiot on the planet when I found out! I sent a bunch of traffic too!

    Action is ALWAYS better then inaction.

    And yeah.. my dumbest mistake wasn't things that I did, because I always learned something from them, but my biggest mistake was not taking enough action and just letting procrastination get the best of me.

    I was promting a ebook via PPC and was sending traffic to a site that was down. Then when all was calm I discovered that I was sending traffic to a site that was shutdown for 3 days for a few hundred clicks and two much money spent, no sales, nothing, just wasted money.

    I learned from that experince. I make it my business now to now check my PPC ads at least twice a day and also click on my own ads once a day to make sure my clicks are leading towards to working pages. I have no problem as none of my clicks are above $0.60.

    That was silly of me to let a campaign go astray without monitoring it.
