Alright, so I know I posted a few days ago about getting into Google Adwords, but after reading up on Facebook it seems to be a little bit easier to jump into. I've read through lots of info here, but some of it was a little bit dated so I just wanted some clarifications to make sure I'm doing it right before blowing $1,000 dollars.
So here it is, I'm waiting on approval from a few affiliate networks right now and loading up $1,000 dollars on a prepaid card so I don't fuck my credit to start. I'm going to focus on leads as oppose to sales as it seems those are complete fail on Facebook.
Here are my questions:
1. When they give me a suggested bid range, where should I be bidding to start? I realize that I will have to bid high, but should I start a few cents under the suggested range to start? (ex: bid range is .24 - .36, should I bid .20?)
2. What is a decent click rate at this point of time? I read .2 was minimum last I checked, wanted to make sure this stands.
3. At how many impressions with a decent click through rate should I start dropping my bid?
4. When I do start dropping my bid, should it be in .05 cent increments? I'm assuming I would do this slowly, but how rapidly should I start declining my max bids? I'm thinking this will most likely be trial and error.
5. What should I set my daily limit at for testing on say a $1.50 payout zip/email submit? I was thinking about $5.00 to start.
6. With $1,000 start up budget I doubt that I will be breaking $1,000 a week for weekly wires, do affiliate networks ever do bi-weekly payouts until you hit that mark to allow for scaling?
7. I'm googling coupons and it seems everything that was previously out there has expired in the past few months. I am fucking pissed I missed the one that let you start with a $300 credit. Are there any coupons active that you can point me to?
Any other help and advice is appreciated, thanks in advance for your answers. Sorry for the tldr.
