What is a good converting site?
Well they say a good converting site is one that sells 1 in 100 visitors.
Now once youve chosen which affiliate program you want to promote using Google Adwords you may be thinking well Ill just let it run for 100 clicks and if I dont make a sale Ill give it the flick.
But that wouldnt be a true test of whether it is a good converting site or not. You see, it doesnt just happen at every 100. You may get to 170 visitors without any sales whatsoever then BAM BAM BAM 3 sales in a row.
My recommendations for testing an affiliate program using Google Adwords would be to find a few keywords that not many people are using (you can do this simply by thinking of some keywords YOU would type in if you were looking or this product if there is 7 or less ads on the sponsored side then that means you can get those keywords for 5 cents and still make the first page.
You can also check to see how well those keywords do over on overture simply by going to: http://inventory.overture.com/d/searchinventory/suggestion/ and typing in the keywords into there. The numbers that appear aside the word is how many times that keyword was searched in overture for a month.
If its getting searched over in overture then its likely that it is being searched in Google at a higher volume.
So now youve got yourself a few test keywords at 5 cents each
I would let it run for at least 200 clicks before considering whether I would keep it or flick it. It may take a couple of weeks to reach but thats perhaps the safest and cheapest way I know of to test. That way youve only blown $10 if it didnt work out.
If it converts nicely then I would put it in my keepers pile and do the research to add another 200 to 300 keywords to get it profiting for me nicely.
