Starting SEM with CPA for the first time!
I have finally come to the decision that I am going to invest a small portion of my monthly earnings into various search marketing campaigns which i will be starting up in the next few weeks. Since i have not had much experience with SEM I am not going to stress over not breaking even due to the fact that I will only be investing around $1,500 or so per month. I think i will start with various ring tone offers and hopefully expand into mortgage offers. Please post any advice you have for someone who is just starting out with SEM!
Thanks,
Harrison
P.s. What is considered a good conversion ratio for ring tone offers (when doing search of course!)

I work with a number of ring tone publishers on a Playphone ring tone offer in our CPA Network, AdValiant. A really good conversion rate would be 10% or higher, if you have the right offer, good marketing and good traffic. Typically, its closer to around 5-6%. There is still a lot of great opportunity to be made. I am finding playphone is converting better than jamster, flycell etc. because the company is newer, the creative is fresher and the database is cleaner. The payout is $11. Let me know if you want to try it out and I’ll work with you. The other that is important here, is that Playphone and our network are very strict and ensuring that our publishers DO NOT promote the offer as FREE. So we’re very ethical that way.

hows this going for you. I have through out a few hundred in the past to try to market ringtones and it turned into a waste of money. I wish I had a mentor.
