Yesterday my Bidvertiser experiment was upgraded to debacle status, now I’m upgrading it to ‘balls’ status. In case you can’t be bother reading yesterdays post, basically Bidvertiser accused me of generating ‘invalid’ clicks, which is how they justified the 1 in 10,000 click through rate. According to them, only one click was deemed to be [...]

The Bidvertiser experiment has turned into a debacle. After 5 days I had delivered 10,000 impressions. These 10,000 impressions earned 1 click for a grand total of $0.03. Wanting to give them every chance of success I emailed Bidvertiser asking if there was anything wrong with my account, and whether or not clicks were being [...]

As I sit watching paint dry, eagerly awaiting my seven day bidvertiser experiment to reach it’s conclusion I’ve become reflective. In the past twelve months or so, I’ve joined a number of programs with the intention of making some cash from them. Some have been winners, some have been stinkers. But it’s always nice to [...]

SwollenPickles.com has averaged over 20,000 unique visits a month for a while now, and whilst I’m happy with that, I’m also disappointed that my adsense earnings haven’t increased in proportion to visits. For example, in May this site had 22,302 unique visits yet made only $23.89 from adsense. Even with my dodgy math skills I [...]

Share-A-Sale is the latest affiliate program I’ve joined in the hope of making my fortune. Up until this point I haven’t spent much time looking around their site to see how it works, and what sort of programs and creative they have available. At this stage I’ve only joined up to two of their programs, [...]

I logged into Predictify this morning after neglecting my account for a few weeks and noticed they have redesigned their site a little. The basic functionality is the same, however they’ve tarted it up slightly with some ‘web 2.0′ gradients. Very nice, but the real news is a noticed there were more paid predictions available [...]

I’ve been using Commission Junction for a while now, and it’s been good to me, but I’m always looking to find new programs to see if there’s something that’ll work better for me. That’s how I found ‘Share-A-Sale’, which operates much like Commission Junction however seems to have a wider range of niche type affiliate [...]

The ebay affiliate program is currently making the transition from Commission Junction to its own newly launched eBay Partner Network. For anyone using Commission Junction based eBay affiliate links, this means you will have to join up to the eBay Partner Network and then, once approved, go through and update all your links. I only [...]

It’s official, I’ve now made some money with Predictify. How did I make money? Simple, I predicted that Kansas would win their championship game against Memphis in the 2008 men’s NCAA tournament. The best part is, I had no idea who would win, I just guessed. Kansas could have been on the bottom of the [...]
