Hustle 2009 – Day 8, Yesterday’s Turmoil
Jan 15, 2009 Marketing Leave a comment
Well yesterday my first auction expired. I ended up having 5 people bid on the video game that I had for sale. That was actually pretty cool I walked away with a $10.00 profit. I can’t lie I was worried for a second, shoot things had been going pretty slow for me until then.
And if you remember I had created a Google Adwords campaign Monday to drive traffic to the affiliate site I was pushing, but I didn’t start to run the campaign until that Tuesday. The Google Adwords campaign I was managing was doing pretty well I was extremely happy with this, in my opinion I actually had a sweet spot. The affiliate pays out $23.00 per conversion and I have 750 keywords where 95% of the keywords I was bidding on I was only paying $.10 per click. My CTR rate wasn’t that great but that was something I could work on. I figured If I hadn’t made a conversion by the time my spend hit $10.00 then it would be time to switch it up and move onto the next affiliate program. So to better my CTR I decided to trim my keyword list and pull out the top bad performing keywords. Well to make a long story short while I was trimming and modifying my keyword list I decided to increase the CPC rate on one of my keywords from $0.10 to $0.30. Well I must of had zigged where I was suppose to have zagged and accidently change it to $30.00 instead of $0.30. Within 5 minutes I saw my spend of $5.00 shot up to $84.00. Yea $84.00, I was pissed but I had no one to be pissed at it was my entire fault. I now had $9.00 clicks. Needless to say I shut it all down and probably won’t run this ad until next month. Everything was going well until I screwed that up. Oh well you learn right.
On another note I added two more items to EBay; they suppose to expire this Saturday, so I’m crossing my fingers for success with these sales.
Nothing from Sedo, but I’m still have faith.
Until tomorrow

Hustle 2009 – Day 6, Putting Adwords Into the game
Jan 13, 2009 Marketing Leave a comment
Well its Monday, weekend is over and I feel like I’m sucking wind. I have a couple of irons in the fire but I’m not seeing any revenue come across the desk yet. Perhaps I have not given it enough time, I admit It has only been like 6 days. But dang show me the money.
I’m currently
- Selling on Ebay
- Participating in Ebay’s Affiliate Program
- Have 3 Domains up for sale on Sedo
- A affiliate site with Click Bank, and now starting tonight I have added a Google Adwords campaign to push traffic.
I mean really, I feel like I should be having some kind of action by now.
The Ebay auction I have running expires on the 13th, I’m crossing my fingers something transpires. But if not I’ll switch it out and take another stab at it.
As far as domain sales, I think I’m going to give it until the 15th before I upgrade my Sedo advertisement efforts. Maybe a front page display will do the trick.
Yea I’m getting a little discourage but I’m sticking with it
Until tomorrow

Hustle 2009 – Day 3, Train Still on the Track
Jan 9, 2009 Marketing Leave a comment
Well I have to make this a quick post today, I’m going out of town tomorrow and need to hit the rack ASAP.
No Ebay Affiliate Program Sales today, thats cool the train is still on the track 
I did join a message board today, Digital Point. I think they have a well of great knowledge there. I have actually been coming to their site for some time now but just got around to joining today.
I also elected to upgrade my Sedo services to include category advertisement. This is basically like the premium home page advertisement but instead of displaying your domain names(s) that you have for sale on the home page they display them on the category page, 2nd tier page if you will. I happy, I think it’s a good start.
I did a lot of reading today about domain sales and what’s the safest route to take when selling them. I take it that there are a lot of scams going on so I want to be sure that I protect myself. I’m moving a bit fast so I need to read as much as I can.
Well guys and gals I must go It’s hell trying to take a 2 hours drive after 8 hours shift.
Until next time
… Tomorrows the Ebay Selling Day…YEA!
