Can I use profanity here? Because when I read this..

“Not understanding is why the ones who do are profiting. Try not to dwell on it to hard. People type the domains into the search engines all the time and not the address bar. What comes in the search engines when they do that? Yea! Content Sites with some Adsense sites most likely. If you leave those out, then your leaving money on the table.”

It was one of the 4 TIMES reading this series that I’ve said out loud to myself “that’s fucking genius”.

Thanks Ruck

Thanks for your comments, Ruck. I will look forward to that “a very LONG discussion over Google’s Quality Score”. :)
As suggested I am testing an amount of clicks my ads will generate on content network but they don’t seem to do well. Actually none of them received a single impression.
What I did was created a separate campaign for content network and 30 ad groups (‘alexa method’). Each group has 20+ key phrase variations, so I’ve got 600+ keywords. But again no impressions, and no clicks so far though a day passed already.
My landing page is index.html file in a separate folder on my domain. index.html file has a title and meta tags and the code for an iframe with my affiliate link. I have 2 different ad variations for each ad group.
Does it have anything to do with the content of those ads and key phrases why I don’t receive impressions and clicks on content network?
Could that happen that google can see that there are no same keywords both among key phrases in the ads and in the content of ads?
Thank you.

@ Alex – Basically its called a “slap”. Google is not finding your landing page or direct linking relevant enough for your adgroups and keywords. Try optimizing your title, meta keywords and description and the text on your pages for your keywords. It may take a few landing pages depending on how big your keyword list is. Generally for adgroups I like to have a landing page for each one and optimize tightly around the keywords in the adgroup. We will be having a very LONG discussion over Google’s Quality Score.

Hey Ruck,

Thanks for cpa marketing series.

Do you have any explanation for google adwords ‘Inactive for search’ policy?
I used to get really cheap clicks half a year ago for as low as $0.03-$.06 now for all the keywords I have ‘Inactive for search
Increase quality or bid $1.00-$10.00 to activate’. These are 4-6 words search phrases so a low bid is not the case.

Hey…

I wasn’t able to get the code up there to work.

Not sure if I did something wrong or not, but this seems to work except for a border and an extra scroll bar.

@solvetheproblem and ruck

I get why domains are used as keywords, I have been using them myself for quite awhile, that wasn’t my question at all.
Thanks for not bothering with the other questions :)
