nice thread :)

No money on the net..nothing at all. ;)

how about $30-35 a sale with conversion ratios of 1:50 - 1:100

Yes I've noticed this too. Sometimes it takes over a week to get anything reviewed and that's only because after they get a profanity laced e-mail from me. The last time the person that responded said next time I should e-mail them everytime I want to make a change if I want my ads to be review within 24 hours. That's bullshit. EVERY fucking time? If that's their new policy then fine they should say that and quit saying that your ads will be up within 15 minutes.

And frankly the main reason I use them over Yahoo is because I could change ads and add keywords in an instant. If this is no longer the case I have to seriously consider other options. At least with Yahoo if you pay the $179 for the "pro" level of service you actually get your ads on FIRST then they are reviewed. Which is how it should be. I've been with Adwords for over 4 years and I get treat like a noob? I mean it's stupid if I feel like my ad text needs a change I have to not have my ad shown for DAYS or if I want to add a keyword not have it show up for days and thus lose sales until some lazy fuck from Google finally decides to do his fucking job.

I just got back in the biz so I don't have a lot of traffic sources other than Adwords and Yahoo. I make between 30% -50% profit each week.:)

Yea it's pretty stupid that you can spend $30k+ a year with them, but still need every single change you make to your ads reviewed like you're some newbie. And not only do they need to be reviewed, they need to be reviewed before they'll show.

Didn't google have something like the "pro" service included a year or two ago? I seem to remember making changes, seeing them pretty quickly, then getting an e-mail a few days later if my ad was declined for whatever reason.

I don't remember exactly when the extreme slowness started, but I don't think it's always been like it.

Fuck I hate these threads, die thread die.

There is no way to make money with Adwords. Keyword bidding is too high and sponsor payouts are too low. It is best not to try.

Hahahaha adwords rules, dont let the haters fool ya there is LOTS of money to be made with it. Ive got my shit set straight so it dont bother me to speak the truth.

Don't forget the CLICK FRAUD.

50...,.......

Yes no money in Adwords. Please do NOT get started in Adwords. And if you are already using Adwords, STOP. I beg of you, everyone using Adwords needs to stop doing it. except me of course

$15 a sale? Go with ppl paying $40 then. They are out there. some places pay hundreds.

PPS sucks with AdWords for me. Revshare shows you're in the game.

wrong forum! ha!

the trick is conversions idiots.. with AdWords you should do 1:30-1:50.. its not tgp traffic you assclowns.. oh wait.. tgp traffic is 1:3000..
Find a product that converts and its probably not in the adult area..

Like what, selling shit from Amazon for 5% comission? People that click Adwords ads are much more willing to buy porn than TGP traffic. If they wanted free porn they go to the TGPs. If they want free porn but are too stupid to find it that's not my problem.

Um ok. So you spend say $15 on a sale where you get $2.50 with no promise of any rebills rather than getting a for sure $30 and know in fact that you WILL make a profit?

anyone know if miva & overture review listings on Sat-Sun or only on Mon-Fri?

From my experience it's always been 1:900 to 1:1200. Wasn't impressed.

You need to get wiredguys account manager

With Adwords? Then you just suck at it. Let me guess you fogot to filter out non-US/Canadian trafiic you forgot to use the negative word FREE. Meaning anyone searching for FREE porn would not see your ad. You probally let your ads be seen on their search partners and content networks. You probally used general words with the broad match instead of the phrase match or exact match.

if you have trouble with adwords reviewers, spend a bit more and they'll give you a dedicated rep, my ads get in real fast and they'll let you bend the rules a bit too

with adwords as with most other advertising sources, mainstream conversions are way better than adult.. but the adult payouts are much larger. either way there's profits to be made if you know what you're doing.

I was wondering about search partners. I haven't really tested w/o, is it a big difference?

How much do you estimate before you get one? I felt good to get an invite to the offline editor lol.

I've been around 8 years. I am not a complete moron. Adwords results simply sucked for me. Just telling you my experiences.

Revshare shows you're in the game.

I personally guarantee you stand in the welfare line every month.

:2 cents:

Like water off a duck's back, man. Look at the guy's post history. It's laughable.

What you're saying doesn't have the ring of bullshit, and that's what counts.

He's just flexing his e-peen -- you know the type.

What are you 12? And you're wrong I am not on welfare.

Yes, I'm 12, but I buy my groceries without reaching for food stamps. I saw that picture of you with the tattered old clothing, 5 teeth missing, and the skanky male model boyfriend. It kind of skeeved me out, but to each his own.

Sorry if I called it "welfare" -- what is it called in your state? "Assisted living?" Good luck with it.

I find end up costing you ore than theya re worth. But that's me. Thing is I know how my ad is going to look on Google. I don't know how it's going to look or be interpreted by the surfer on any of those other sites. Last thing I want is a bunch of confused surfers clicking my ad that have no intention of buying. This seems to be more a problem on their search partners. I suppose some Adwords people will say they make as much or more using the search partners and that may be the case with them.

WTF is your issue with me. I've done nothing to you for you to be an ass? And no I'm not on food stamps either. Just because you lie reshare you have to be disrespectful to me because I don't think it's wise to use it on Adwords. WTF is wrong with you? most webmaster here use PPS so you are bsically insulting them too. "In the game" WTF is that? You are 12. Who in the fuck do you think you're impressing with that? You're attitude shows you're NOT in the game.

WTF does that mean? Oh ok everyone that uses Adwords is not making money and is somehow lyng and still spending money on Adwords for some unknown reason. Ok sounds reasonable. :helpme

Actually, that's not entirely true. That girl your raped was my cousin, asshole.

I make plenty of money from AdWords. And from sex with horses.

But I know that you don't. I saw that your accounts at your major sponsors was still waiting to accumulate the minimum check amounts.

In the meantime, you always have food stamps. There's no shame, I'm not trying to make you feel bad.

How much do you suggest I spend?

They don't accept food stamps currently, but you might be able to work something out if you email them.

FYI: There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of animals Chuck Norris allows to live.

Adwords is a strange thing....

Ive doubled my money on it with some sponsors, the BIG downside to that is I had to make my bid prices so low in order to make a profit, i got very little traffic.

So yeah I doubled my money, but "my money" was $20/day.

Surely you can find enough keywords than to spend more than $20 a day. Also sometimes it pays to spend a bit more, but you've got to be careful.
