I've also been watching Jeremy Palmer's webinars. Regarding the AdWords campaign structure, I tried to paste a table to make sure I understand your explanation but I couldn't. So here's a rough breakdown: AdWords Campaigns: Campaign 1 Campaign 2 Campaign 3 Keyword Category: Lamps Sheets Furniture Keywords: Lamp Shade, Lamp Base, Cotton Sheets, Silk Sheets, Beds, Night Stands Lamp shade - 2 Ad Copies Lamp base - 2 Ad Copies Cotton Sheets - 2 Ad Copies, etc. Is this what you meant? Thanks, Hi Amit,

Great information. I’ve also been watching Jeremy Palmer’s webinars. Regarding the AdWords campaign structure, I tried to paste a table to make sure I understand your explanation but I couldn’t. So here’s a rough breakdown:

AdWords Campaigns: Campaign 1 Campaign 2 Campaign 3
Keyword Category: Lamps Sheets Furniture
Keywords: Lamp Shade, Lamp Base, Cotton Sheets, Silk Sheets, Beds, Night Stands

Lamp shade – 2 Ad Copies
Lamp base – 2 Ad Copies
Cotton Sheets – 2 Ad Copies, etc.

Is this what you meant?

Thanks,

However, call me paranoid, but if your entire business model is built on identifying keywords that convert, why would you share that data with Google? I agree, they produce really cool toys. They make it really easy to track. However, by telling them which keywords convert you may as well wave a big red flag and say "Thanks for the cheap clicks, I'm making lots of money out of you. Wow. Look at my ROI!" Don't you think if they see that a certain keyword converts time and time again, they might be tempted to raise the minimum bid? There was a time once when we all bought into the "Do no evil" mantra. However, lets not forget that Google is corporation the same as any other, and they have a duty to their shareholders to maximize profits. They're in it for the money, just like you and me. Sometimes, we need to keep our cards a little closer to our chests. Hi Amit

How often do you go through those ad groups? I was bidding in the $0.15 range and it happens quite often that Google bumps up my bids to $0.20 and I had to adjust. That is hard to manage with 1000 ad groups. How do you manage thousands of ad groups at all? 2 Keywords per ad group want to be looked at with how do they do with quality score and minimum bids?

With ClickBank, simply add tid=xxxxx to the end of the affiliate link, the xxxxx code appears on the sales report. The code can be generated to not only identify the keyword but the ad copy and landing page that produced the sale. And you don't have to ask for any conversion code favors from merchants.

Their assignment - Sign up with Digg and Onlywire - WTF. Even a 4th grader would know that. Setting up a wordpress blog is no rocket science. Its easy as 1-2-3. I hope that there are some quality tips offered later in the course. As far as I can say, if you have quality content - and know how to utilize social media, quality blog commenting, little seo - you don't need any course. This just another way of ripping off people! And, I humbly request you not to delete this comment. You should allow two sided open discussion, not just comments that agree with your perspective. I may be wrong, but why do you need to hide my comment? I was hugely turned off when I saw that blog classroom pre-course offered. Their assignment – Sign up with Digg and Onlywire – WTF.

If thousands of affiliates ask for their conversion tracking code to be put in the thank you page of a particular offer, I wonder how that'll work out. Any thoughts Amit? Or perhaps they'd make a custom affiliate link for you with a custom thank you page? I was about to ask the same question as Joe’s….

I mean do you know if there is a limit before the page falls over? Cheers good post. How feasible is it for merchants putting multiple affiliates tracking code on their thankyou pages…
