My First Month

[stack]

I joined TOPs early in March of this year, but was sidetracked with my CA exams that I was studying for this year. I finished my last exam in September, and was finally able to start actively marketing my website. In the first month of marketing I have the following results to report:

AdSense:$35
Traffic Payouts: 129.36
AffiliateFuel: $147.25
PEAK: $17.5
BizOpp: $7
Ecommerce Strategies: $9
MintJobs: 0
ROIRocket: $3
ClickBank: $23.50 (Updated! I forgot to include CB in my first post )
SFI: 19 sponsors, one became an EA this past week. I'm not sure exactly what the comission will be
TOPS:13 sponsors, none have signed up for PP3 (yet!), although no income, I'm over 1/5 the way to becoming Elite status.

Total Revenue: $371.5 (plus whatever SFI comission is with my first EA)

Total Advertising Costs $403

Although I've spent a little bit more then I made, my results going forward are going to be a lot stronger. During the past 4 weeks I have made changes to my site, got my PPC costs under control, and have actually run at a profit the past two weeks. I'm pretty excited, and am actually working on making two other sites right now as well. I've got some good keywords that I can convert, only costing me 10cents/click.

Erich, and everyone else here who helps out by actively posting, thank you! This program really works!

Congratulations Stack, it sounds like you are properly taking your initial results, tweaking your site and ads, and improving your conversions as you go...in other words, following the directions and working the system as intended. You reached profitability very quickly too...it can often take considerably longer to test and tweak before you start seeing positive results. Keep up the great work!

Those are excellent stats for just starting out. Keep up the good work. You really have a handle on what you are doing. You are going to be very successful ;D

Figured I would post this in the thread I started almost a year ago, where I posted my first "success" with Erich's 3PP program. Over the months I have continued to learn and expand my knowledge in internet marketing, and have continued to make a few sales here and there, and even got a couple EA's along the way. In this time (as you might see in my sig link), I neglected to continue to update my website with the most current offers. I was too busy learning!

Well, not forgettting all the good programs Erich has shown me, I found an opportunity to promote DEME this month with a cheap traffic source...and to say the least it was successful!

I'm currently ranked 4th in sales for the month, with $12,000 in sales and placed to win a 50inch plasma TV!!

Thanks Erich and member of the board who helped get me off the ground!

I know I'm not the most active member here, but if anyone ever has any questions or help, feel free to pm me!

Congratulations Stack! ;D That's a remarkable success story, thanks for sharing it with us. Good luck winning the TV as well, which would be icing on the cake on top of the commissions that you have already earned. Keep up the great work!

Hi Stack

I've watched your progress over the last couple of mos and must say your success is nothing less than remarkable. It just goes to show how persistance can pay off. You started off slow but saw the possibilities and kept going forward which is what it takes.

Your success is similar to many others who have followed our affiliate program. The only difference is that right now you are probably leading the pack in online income among all those whom I follow on a regular basis.

Your story will no doubt motivate others which is why we share our stories here.

Keep up the good work...

Erich

Thanks for the words all of you.

I've gone through and written a guide to getting free traffic for those of you that need some guidance and don't have the money to do paid forms of advertising.

You can read it in this thread here

Stack,

Thanks for the very informative guide on getting search engine traffic. I use each step that you mention and I am seeing good results.

I wish you continued success.
