As mentioned in End of March Results I was going to use April to do some research and start networking. The main two sites that caught my eye were Wicked Fire , Nicky Cakes and a Australia site Hard Margin.

Wicked Fire

Site is full of useful information and strong affiliate people, but be careful when asking questions or you will be crucified. Questions like “how much money are you making?”,”can you mentor me?” or “review my website” will leave you with a bunch of sarcastic replies. On a positive note they do have a newbie question section along with a great list of 2008 posts.  By far the best post i’ve read so far would be “creating ultra targeted ads” and would highly recommend the read.

Nicky Cakes

Very interesting blog to read, seems to be the Perez Hilton of affiliate marketing (But writes a whole lot better). Apart from whats happenning in the affiliate market in America (Events,Affiliate comments,etc…) he has a useful 8 part newbie guide that makes a a lot of sense. Its not a step by step guide to becoming rich but its a good strong outline to start off.

Hard Margin

Hard Margin is an Australia blog related to PPC affiliate marketing in the travel sector. The best part of this site is his experiments and honest results. It doesn’t seem to be updated to regularly but its a good read.

Campaign results for April

So after a month with no fine tuning I left my Campaign running and had the following results:

Spent:$12.14
Leads:13
Gross:$58.50

Net Profit of $46.38

Now you are probably thinking “great now get more traffic and scale the campaign” cause I am, but the problem is after doing a bunch of research I have read a lot of people complaining about Clix Galore and not paying. This has knocked the confidence out of me quiet a bit. I don’t want to scale a campaign and not be paid for the leads, who does? The good news is that I’m over the the $100 payout mark so lets see if I get paid.
