Hey guys,
In the recent past I've done some PPC with ringtones, health insurance, and car insurance, all to no avail (1 sale yay!). After doing more research, it seems like those are exactly the wrong niches to start with as a newbie (too competitive, few impressions, and I'm not advanced enough to crack those just yet).
Now, looking at some offers from the network I'm with, I see some things I'd like to promote, like weight loss products, a lot of interesting stuff.
My question is, though: Is something like weight loss for a newbie as difficult as insurance? If so, do you have any suggestions for a newbie to get started?
Should I perhaps focus on selling a few specific products? (like a few models of blueray players or whatever? (This would require me to find a different sponsor than my affiliate network though, since they only offer the 'standard' affiliate products)
Once I get some PPC campaign going where I just get enough impressions, I can take it from there - optimize ads, optimize landing pages, optimize keywords - but it's frustrating to see my campaigns 'running' and get very few impressions - not much to work with then! (it's probably partially because of the keywords, as I am a newbie ofcourse, but still...)
Thanks a lot for any response!
