Buying advertising - How much expect to get back?
When you buy advertising space what do you expect to get back, what is a good number.
I mean like this.. If you lets say buy banner space for $500 a month, how much do you expect to get back from that investment. Three times the invested money or less? I'm new on this advertising thing, i only worked with my own traffic sources before and i need to set up some goals that are not to unrealistic, and count on how much i need to invest in advertising each month. I know this question variates from website to website, but what do you think is an OK number, like two times the investment, three times the investment or more. :helpme:thumbsup |

Ok, i was expecting that someone would post that image actually..
But someone who understand my question? |
I expect to almost double my money. But it usually doesn't work that way.

There is a ton of variables.
In this market you'd be lucky to get your money back. But with the right product and traffic you could do well. |

Expect to not make a sale. If you do it is a bonus. If you buy for long enough expect your alexa ranking to go up. That is a realistic expectation.

Depends a lot on the traffic and what program
|
In adult?
Nothing, ZERO... In the old days I used to invest 5000 dollars per month buying spots or gallery listings that generated me 20,000 per month earnings... but nowadays it makes no sense, it will only make you lose money. Unless you have a specific amount of money that you can afford to WASTE. There is no place in adult TODAY where you have the quarantee to spend 1K in listings or ads, and make some decent money out of it, and make a profit... In the past you had the quarantee to buy a 1K ad and get at least 3K at worst of profit... Nowadays, FOR EXAMPLE, you can buy a 1K listing and then maybe make 100 bucks out of it. PIRIOD. |

Directive advertising delivers returns albeit over a longer range time period. (60 to 120 days with repeat residuals.) Google AdWords is an example of directive advertising -- people are looking for what you have ... |

I will answer it. You should aim to make more than you spent. Piriod. |
I only buy 99% clicked text link traffic. I also geo filter most buys to only premium countries. I use tracker codes for most advertising whether it's a broker or simply buying links on someones site/network, ones that are profitable I keep, ones that are not even close to being profitable I drop. Some places I have been buying from for 9-10 years straight.

I would expect to have $1000 back from the $500 I spent making $500 in profit. I miss the days when porn was completely unrestricted in Adwords...

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh Just because YOU can't make money out of it does not mean no one can. We have people spending 10k a day on ads. Think they are not making money off it? |

But we have asked traffic sellers, and the publishers of advertisers their advice, followed it and have made no sales on ads, some sales on galleries but not enough to break even. Never have we met a ad seller or traffic broker who has wanted to work long term to make a campaign work Adwords works but is expensive, breaks even, and difficult to get enough traffic at good price. |
Cherry7, no traffic broker will spoon feed you working campaigns. When you open a company, no one is going to hand you a business plan. Its your job to figure out what to do with it.
People in adult still think its all about taking some free hosted gallery, some pre made banner, put it up on your site and the sales will follow. This is not how marketing works. This is stupidity. |
Too many variables, but try to get deals and be realistic

Can't you READ what all others SAY agreeing with me? Just because you are FULL OF SHIT, doesn't mean others are too. Yeah yeah, who do you want to trick? I bet you WHATEVER YOU WANT, that after investing 1K with you, I won't even break even. But you WON'T ACCEPT the BET... do you DARE? HUH? Yeah yeah, I know you won't, BYE. And no, don't tell me it's my fault or it depends on my sites or BLA BLA BLA... PERIOD. |

So you spent 1k on a traffic source - what do you expect? Your buying data and not profits. Have some common sense and examine your acquired data and optimise your campaigns accordingly. What type of ads did you run? What niche? |

BUT go to agents selling adult ad space and traffic and not to mince words you get ripped off. Just look at the sites you can advertise on and the quality of the traffic it produces. The standard I compare it to is Adwords if I can make a sale every 300 clicks on adwords and get none on 10000 I come to the conclusion that that the person selling the 10000 clicks is a fraud. As I said I know nothing of marketing, and in the mainstream you hire an agency to book ads for you using their expertise to by the right space. The people in adult either can't do this or I have not met them. If there is a person who has the skill to buy performing ads tailored to the site I would be glad to hear from them. |
What can you expect to get back?
Hopefully enough to buy more advertising. LOL |

I am usually happy to get my money back. :1orglaugh
That said, if I find one that works I will run it into the ground until it doesn't anymore. |
