Posted in Hey,
Yesterday i had a conversation on AIM with a friend of mine who has spent 10.00 and made 25.00 per day for 6-7 months now. He wanted tips to scale his info. After telling him to keep trying/I analyzed some of his landing pages etc (i guess i helped him) i became intrigued and i decided to write a blog post.
Scaling an income on the internet with affiliate marketing can be extremely challenging because the odds are truly against you. With big guys making thousands daily they pretty much have a complete advantage over you. The main advantage they have over you is that they have already found the way to scale their income. These guys have resources up the wazoo and can get away with things us “little guys” can’t due to the fact that they suck off adwords employees and send gifts to the overture guys (im only kidding). I hope you can gain something out of my little post that will help you turn the 50.00 a day your making into 500.00 per day.
Switching from “Tests” to “PrimeTime”
Most people start a campaign putting in a small budget hoping to see some results so they know they will earn money. After seeing an ROI they usually up their budget a million times which will obviously generate you more clicks. One thing people don’t think about is your ROI usually doesn’t depend 100% on your budget; It mainly depends on who actually clicks your ads. I usually start my daily budget at something like $20-$50 and i slowly raise it and tweak it as i see a return or as i see a loss. My usual little plan is: if ROI=10% Raise Budget 15%… Wait 24 hours; If ROI goes down than decrease budget 5%. Than wait 1 day and if you see an increased roi up budget 25% Than repeat. Its weird and to be honest i don’t think im telling you my exact little rotation (im in class half asleep)! I see this as if I’m never in “Test Mode” and I am mostly in “PrimeTime Mode”.
Doubling Your Budget is not the only way to scale your income
If promoting specific niches which target specific users upgrading your budget might only increase your chances of paying more per click because specific keyword generated clicks can be generated. If your going to increase your budget how about adding some more ad-groups and some more keywords because your chances of seeing new clicks will greatly increase.
I only really feel like writing this much due to the fact that i have some work i need to finish up so I will continue sometime this week with “Scaling Your Earnings (2 of 3) which will cover scaling your income vs. scaling your expenses.
Thanks For Reading,
Harrison
