Hi everyone! I just signed up for this forum, and I have some questions I hope someone can help me with. I have been advertising with YSM for about 3 weeks now. My first campaign went very well the first week. A lot of sales and I was earning money. After a week my sales stopped totally! I was still receiving the same amount of clicks, and my ads shows up in the Yahoo Search Engine. I didn't think much about it at the time, I just made some improvements to my ads. While I was waiting for results I started to add some new campaigns, and same thing happens again. Sales started immediately and I was earning $100-$200 each day. After exactly 1 week the fun was over. It's the same thing again; I get a lot of clicks, and all my ads are showing up in the position I'm paying for. Has anyone else experienced this?? I will be happy for any input here. Rolf
Study your site referrals closely, you might be having Yahoo! 'Search' Network problems, and getting garbage ad-ridden sites showing your ads. Or you could just be having trouble with the Content Network in general. Turn it off for now. Install Google Analytics to spy on your YSM campaigns and install Yahoo!'s new metrics system to spy on your Google AdWords campaigns. I just thought that sounded cool, really you just need GA. Make sure you tag all non-AdWords campaigns (AdWords gets auto-tagged). This will help you build your tagged destination URLs. It is kind of confusing if you haven't dealt with this before, but you have to do it, or GA will see YSM ad clicks as organic (I'm having to go back and do this with all of my clients and it is a pain in the A**). Do it now while still early in the ball game.
