Auction Ads - The Verdict
13 04 2007A few weeks ago, I wrote a little about Auction Ads - I had only been using it for a few days at the time. I checked, and it has now been 1 month since I put up some Auction Ads on a couple of my sites and I am pretty pleased.
For a Recap - see my initial post on the subject.
Well, after exactly 1 month AA has earnt me around $100. I am displaying Ads across 3 sites and have had 481,000 ad impressions, with 4,693 clicks on them that has made me the money.
I very carefully chose the pages/sites where I implemented the ads and have been fairly impressed with the results. I have had a look over my other revenue streams for these sites and they have not sufferred at all and have remained steady.
A look at my AA stats show that for the first 2 weeks I made next to nothing - but that is in part to how this all works. This is one of the easiest affiliate programs to join and it is very, very easy to set up and get it working on your site. A look at my stats indicates that you need a reasonable amount of traffic for it to be worthwhile.
I have done no tweaking after the initial first few days as to the type of ads that are displayed so there is probably a lot more that I could do in order to better target the Ads to my sites.
If your site has at least 1000 visits/day then Auction Ads is certainly worth checking out and trying for a month or 2.
