AuctionAd Increases Affiliate Payout

http://www.romangelsi.com

AuctionAds never worked for me. I guess it is for all those people who have a way too much traffic like johnchow.com . May be something more than 2000 unique hits per day. Or else it is way too difficult to make money using auction ads. Though i am already trying it out on one of my technology daily blogs. Lets see what results it brings in the coming days

i hope to make some money because today i signed in

Very smart marketing move by TLA to increase the referral percentage imo. I like what they have done with Auction Ads since picking it up.

Another vote for loving the new design. So web 2.1 :roll:

I have actually noticed an increase in performance over the last week.

My site is very aligned to AA

This increase is very good to hear. But im not to sure about implementing AuctionAds on my site. Im not a fan of ad networks!

I have had poor results with them

I have been running AuctionAds since they started and have seen wild fluctuations in earnings. One month I make $30 then next one I make $200.

One thing I can tell you is that you need to attach a campaign to every ad spot. I did not do this early on so it took me a while to figure out which spots were paying and which were a waste.

I run them on my pokefarm site and they do OK. My generic AuctionAd spot in my header performs the best, no idea why...

I ran auction ads for 2 months.

I never made one cent from them, needless to say after reading this I deleted my account.
Wow! From 2% of nothing to 5% of nothing, I'm going to do great!

NOT!

John I'm not doing well with the new Auction Ads yet - but it's early days. I noticed the other day that one of my ads had a pic of some crappy old car - but the text actually said it was a Mercedes!

I was going to replace the link unit I'm using on post level links with this, after reading this update and what everyone else says I think I'll give it a miss.

im off topic but does somebody know how to go into blogspots FTP server? I am trying to use wordpress program but i have to know what my web server is. can someone help me?

That's a nice increase - but people complain about Amazon's 5-10% payout, surely this is even worse?! :/

Is anyone forgetting, that AFAIK, there is no way to check the amount your affiliates are making you?

hmm, i havent earned anything yet.

:mrgreen: Always good to hear about an increase.

not even a penny earned yet, but i got the $5 bonus :lol:

Many comments towards John Chow's "AuctionAds Increases Affiliate Payout" articles show me that there are not easy for peoples to have their own trust on a first sight. Same goes to AuctionAds...This program is just started..It is not an issue if there was a limited products being advertise on AA banners since there was also a challenge to AA in order to gain attention from those publishers.
Giving us a FREE $25 is one of AA marketing strategy to attract more sign-ups. While we are keeping such a good daily-signup because of that $25 rewards, AA is starting to gain attention from many sponsors..... I think they are now getting their confident to say "Hey! come and be my sponsor!.. I got millions of members...." . Same goes to Evil John Chow while he is posting about his 8000++ RSS Subscribers.... :twisted:
Anyway, it cost me nothing to subscribe and promote AA.... Just a sign up and you get $25 straight away...
p/s: John Chow, I am one of your "Make Money Online with John Chow dot Com" fanatic follower....that manual really open my mind towards Internet Marketing scenario... There are "something" to do with your manual :twisted: ... I'll keep in touch with you later on....

Good thing I am not an early adoptor, now I can try auctionads... :0)
Thanks John for beta testing everything beforehand! :)

(You r my guinipig??? haha....)

I am using Auction Ads as my main source of income for my Arcade website check out my site to get an idea of how to use Auction Ads
MyOGGames.com

I'm running AuctionAds on one of my sites and it hasn't performed as well as I had hoped. At this time, I'm thinking about removing it but I possibly may keep it up longer as the new owners make some changes....

Just installed this on my site, but having trouble thinking of keywords. If anyone has ideas let me know i guess lol

I tried auction ads for a while and they basically were worthless. Perhaps I'll put the code back on my site and try again. I tried multiple combinations of keywords and never found any success. Good luck!

Yeah, auction ads is pretty useless if you don't have traffic. At least they look better now.. I didn't hear this payout increase news either! It must be "priveledged info"!

It was good at first, the payouts were higher than Adcents on the same sites/positions but now it's not working as well. Yesterday I had about 2000 impressions and only 4 clicks. All of the other ads performed better, even ones lower on the sidebar.

I haven't tried the new '2.0' themed widgets yet because they clash with the sites where I'm using AuctionAds.

Once my blog starts getting decent traffic i might look at adding Auction Ads

Hmmm I got to know about this change before I was even notified from AuctionAds by e-mail.
John's getting the news way before we are :evil:

5% is good enough!

I believe it's only useful for niche sites which are promoting/selling related consumer products - unless John can show otherwise that'd be great. :twisted:

Auction Ads Are Terrible my click thru rate was at 16% (no joke) on a 2,000 visitor a day blog with 7,000 pageviews and not one order was placed and the ads were directly targeted to a brand that the blog is all about and there was plenty of listings for it. The users would click thru, but not purchase.

Maybe cause audience consist of young women and maybe they don't use Ebay as much but I tried it across a network of sites with men as the target and it performed terrible as far as someone actually buying a product. I think it is the worse yet.

Great idea, but it is not optimized yet and needs something else like maybe the (Ebay) lister pays extra fee for impressions from Auction ads. So that then the publisher can get a small amount for CPC and CPA because most just don't follow thru with the purchase.

Sorry, but I typed really fast ;)

Ive referred a few people yet have made nothing from affiliates do to it being hard to make them perform well.

Yep, I won't recommend adding auctionads on new blogs, or blogs with low traffic

This move is a lot better than the new web 2.0 banners imo. Larger affiliate payouts is always a good thing!

Ive never liked auctionads, their performance is only good on a select few sites, and they don't really look that good.
