I wanted to update this and let everyone know that my ending figures for February were $5,517.71. It was a massive month for me and I hope to see many more like it. Or better, of course!

For those of you who have been asking - PPC has played a major role in my enormous increase this month over last. The results have been amazing. I’m easily doubling any money that I put into my ads. They are converting like candy and it’s proving to be a gold mine for me.

I’m currently building up a few new sites and I’ll be applying new article marketing campaigns and PPC campaigns to accompany them. These sites will be built around broad niches instead of sub-niches, though.

I’m going to be aiming at doing massive SEO and building these sites up to be a healthy, long-term, passive income. This is going to take a lot of time and work but in the end it will benefit me greatly.

Also, I’m going to be starting to work harder on building my lists for each niche during the next few months. Right now I only have two lists that have just over 130 emails in each. So, this will also be a high priority.

I’ve been seeing my income steadily climb as each new month comes and it’s really been an amazing experience. There are many in affiliate marketing that don’t get to see a sizable payment until they are 6 months or more into it. I’ve managed to go up every single month and the month of February has already brought me a little over $5,000 in sales.

$5,000 in a month is a great accomplishment for me. My goal is to reach $10,000 a month by the end of the year and with the way my sales have continued to increase each month, I’m positive that I’ll hit that goal.

It’s crazy to think that just a few months ago in October I was broke, jobless and wondering what my future would hold. The American economy has dwindled so low the past couple of years and the job market is next to non-existent. For me, being only 21, to be able to find something like affiliate marketing and make it work so well and so quickly is a blessing.

I went from having nothing to being able to afford all of the things that I’ve wanted and being able to feel much more optimistic about what my future beholds.

Again, for those who always ask for proof, here are shots of my accounts -

And, yes, account information such as my affiliate id, product names and such have been edited out. I can’t give away all that I’m in or I’ll create competition for myself.

Ok, so I’ve been using PPC ads to push traffic to my landing pages much more often lately. I’ve gotten to the point where I’m actually spending between $40 and $60 a day just on PPC.

The results have been amazing and it’s really pushing me up the affiliate ladder. My income is increasing rapidly and it’s exciting to see the figures continuously going up.

Right now my current total for the month of February is sitting at $3,664.91. For the past couple of weeks I’ve been averaging over $250 in profit every day. And I’ve had a couple of huge days as well, as you can see in my previous post.

I’m starting to hit $300+ a day consistently using a combination of article marketing and PPC marketing. If I can hold those figures I’ll be well on my way to making my goal of $10,000 per month.

It’s currently Thursday, and I’m taking a few days off to go out of town. So I won’t be doing much until Monday afternoon or Tuesday. But I’ll be putting up new campaigns to test new products via articles and PPC once I get back.

As any intelligent affiliate marketer would say, I will not be disclosing the niches that I’m currently promoting. So, please, don’t ask.

Yesterday proved to be an excellent day for me. I had a ton of sales come through. Most of which came in before 1 p.m.

Now, my previous record affiliate sales for one day totaled an awesome $438.25. That was on December 25th, 2009 (Christmas day).

Yesterday, February 13th, broke that record.

I managed to pull off a lovely total of $519. That’s almost $100 over my previous record. Needless to say, I was stoked.

And today is going well, too. I’m already sitting at about $250 for the day and there are still 12 hours that sales are recorded.

I’ve been getting $200+ a day consistently now and I’m going to be attempting to scale up my campaigns in order to build on that. This month has been great so far and I’m hoping to expand upon that.

I’ll be throwing some cash into outsourcing a good bit of work to get even more done in a faster period of time due to the fact that I’m currently working on a few new sites myself.

I decided to take another shot at using PPC ads with my affiliate marketing efforts to see how well I could do. I wanted to see if I would actually be able to make a profit.

Right now I have two ads up. They’ve been up for just 4 days now. Both are set for a $20 a day budget. So, in total, I’m spending $40 a day on the ads alone. But the results have been astonishing.

Click through rates for PPC ads are known to be fairly low, but I’m seeing anywhere from %2 to %5 CTR on both of my ads.

So, that’s the first thing that has been great about them.

The second part, and my personal favorite, is that with the ads are converting visits to sales very well.

How well?

For the past four days, ever since I put the ads up, I’ve been getting $200+ a day in profit! I’ve made just over $825 in just 4 days using the Google Adwords ads alone.

PPC can be very tricky. I’ve changed up my ad copy probably 10 times in the past couple of days, but the CTR has gone up since I have. So, I must be doing something right.

If you’re just getting into affiliate marketing, I’d highly suggest you avoid using PPC until you have some cash on hand that you won’t mind losing. PPC is not always a winning game. Sometimes you’ll only see a few dollars in profit, sometimes you won’t see a profit it all.

It depends on the niche you’re promoting, your ad copy, and a stroke of luck. So, if you’re not keen on possibly losing some cash, don’t try PPC until you’re absolutely sure that you’re ready.

While using Google Adwords can show strong profit, like I’ve been seeing the past few days, it doesn’t always work that way.

There’s a huge learning curve involved with pay per click ads. And if you don’t know what you’re doing, you could go down very quickly.
