And since we are in update mode...

Glittergrafix seems to be doing pretty well from long tail search.

i get about 10-20 uniques a day and I was even on the first page of g for some related terms. Coulditbe - good point - I think if I was going to take a run at this again I would pick a niche with Adsense that payed a little more.

Mike, you said that EPC I was getting for this site was good at 0.17-0.20 - you were right! Its dropped to about .01 - 0.05.... oh well!

The NB ads are getting clicks just no conversions...

Ive made about 2.00 in total but I think the real value has come from the learning process.

The whole point of this thread was no more excuses. Well its given me the kick up the ass I needed. I have spent the last year failing and succeeding with CB, Adsense and PPC in general.

By taking part in Mikes thread I know now the main reason for my failure - I never actually put the effort in. Thats the simple truth and from my point of view the moral of the story (or should that be thread?)

The biggest lesson Mike has taught us all here is that it is not easy. There is no quick fix - it is that simple. Put in the work and you can expect rewards. Bitching about why you havent clear $1000 p/day will get you no where.

I have taken big inspiration from this thread. I may have only made about 2.00 but in the process I have learnt and continue to develop my HTML and design skills. This has opened my eyes and is the single biggest value I have got from this whole project.

I've moved onto developing custom LPs as my main project now. In the past I have had success designing LPs that convert for AM products so its time to put the work in and get this started up again seriously.

Thanks again and big up to Mike for taking the time (and pointing me in the right direction when I strayed!) Truly inspirational stuff.

phwew - my longest post ever...


Cheers

Dave
