So I've decided to take the dive and get into CPA. Going to give adult a shot for my first campaign. Advertising on Exoclick and targeting Canada.
Going to follow usernameistaken's blog post: http://www.jayknowscash.com/2012/11/...ampaign-guide/
I have 6 banners and 3 landing pages rotating. They're are "rules" type landing pages. The offer is Be Naughty. I'm staying at the minimum bid of $0.10/CPM
I spent about $100 without really tracking to see what would happen which was a mistake.
So far, here's my progress:
Day 1:
Spend $22
Revenue $26
Profit $4
Day 2
Spend: $52.39
Revenue: $22.32
Profit: - $30.07
Day 3 - 5
Just loses of about $200
Yesterday:
Spend: $21.50
Revenue: $13
Profit: -$8.50
I've attaached some info from the last 2 days:


Which numbers should I look for exactly? I'm not sure where to go from here... If anyone could help that'd be great
What network are you running be2 with if you dont mind me asking?
Also, are the stats you posted the same ones in the screenshot? They seem different unless im looking wrong.
I setup a US campaign yesterday as well:
Spend: $35
Revenue: $19
Profit - $16


I'm trying to figure out how much data I need or which data to look at before I start changing banners, landing pages, etc.
I'm still keeping the minimum bid at $0.100
Hey,
1. Drop the benaughty offer and contact cpatrend to get something like ads4sex or cutehookup... or try fling from huge-traffic.com
2. Get your tracking sorted. You need to know which ad actually converted and which is only eating up your budget.
3. Once your tracking is working 100%, you should increase your budget to at least $200 a day.
4. Browse the sites you are running ads on and just flat out steal the ads you notice over and over again.
5. Make use of the frequency cap
6. Invideo ads = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
