    Tracking 300 adgroups with Azoogle

    Imagine you have 300 adgroups with Azoogle and you need to track each one for profitability. How do you go about it? Do you export a weeks worth of Azoogle data with the sub id's, print out the list and then manually match up each sub id with your Adgroup? This seems extremely time consuming...

    When doing PPC affiliate marketing: 1. How often do you check your stats? 2. How much time per day do you spend checking your stats? 3. How does #1 and #2 differ if its a new niche or set of adgroups? Thanks, Jon

    Split testing software and nested php

    Lots of these split testing software programs seem to use php/mysql. Problem I've got is that I want to test two versions of a page that has lots of php within it. So if I place their php tag to flipflop the two different pages, the code would break because there would be nested php. Any ideas...

    7Search rules for arbi/PPC

    Are they saying 1,000 keyword limit and one account per site? Or per legal entity (i.e. advertiser)? They use the term "advertising entity". What does that mean exactly? What about existing advertisers? Are we supposed to close down all our accounts? What if the url is slightly different? Or...

    I have a page on a merchants site where I want to put a link to single pixel gif so that I can track when a sale is made. My site - which will contain the gif - is on a site where I use php/mysql, with mysql storing the 'hit'. Anyone got a simple example of what the link might look like and...

    Intermediate tracking sites for affiliates

    I have noticed that some Adwords advertisers have this set up: Adwords > tracking site > actual site ...where the tracking site just logs the stats and then they are immediately redirected to the actual site. Questions: 1. Why would they do this and not just track from the actual site? 2...

    Guilty until proven innocent

    Azoogle banned my account last night. I am still waiting to see if it will be reinstated today. A month ago, two different ebay accounts were selling sites as a business package. They showed screenshots of how much money was being made by Azoogle. These sites had my Azoogle affiliate links on...

    Split testing the landing page

    How do you split test your affiliate landing pages? Do you have your own script or have you bought one? When someone click's a link, do you have them go to an intermediate page for tracking before they get sent to the merchants page? Thanks, Jon

    Tracking to keyword level

    I am using sub id's to track campaigns with azoogle. Do you recommend tracking by each keyword? What about if you had 10,000 keywords in each campaign. Still track by keyword?

    Frames allowable?

    PPC-->landing page-->merchant page Can you set up your site so that if they click your affiliate link, they get taken to a page on your site with perhaps a 100% frame (or something similar) but they get shown the merchants url? Can you do this with some kind of masking? I ask because I have...

    How about creating a list of usual tools and scripts that can help automate some of the arbi process? For example, I have a simple program where I can enter in a list of keywords and it will merge them into a html template and create the landing pages. There is a synonym merger so the keywords...

    Clicking refresh marksall messages Read

    I find it a PITA that when I click refresh in my browser, all the messages get marked Read. I want to click refresh so I can see thread or new message updates, but keeping the old messages I haven't yet read as Unread. Otherwise, its chaos. Apparently, it is a simple setting in the vbulletin...

    7search to affiliate page - geotarget?

    The traffic form 7search comes from all over the place. So if your landing page has a US only affiliate offer on it, does it make sense to geotarget the visitor so you can show adsense if the visitor is non-us? How could you do that? Thanks, Jon
