Ask Mr. D - On Tracking Ads
Dear Mr. D,
I am a retired postal worker. A couple of
months ago I decided to supplement my
retirement check by making a few extra
dollars on the Internet. I figured that if
I could making an extra $500 per month,
my life would be a lot easier.
I joined an affiliate program and started
advertising. The first full month I made
a little less than $50. The second month
I made exactly $50.
Can you tell me how I can drive this
income to my $500 goal?
Signed,
Stalled At $50

Dear Stalled At $50,
The 3 keys to increasing your Internet
income are: traffic, traffic and traffic.
To increase your affiliate commissions
from $50 to $500 you need to generate
10 times more traffic than your current
rate. Now, the question is how can you
achieve this increase in traffic?
Start by tracking your ads. You can find
free ad trackers by going to any of the
major search engines and conduct a
search for "free ad trackers."
By tracking your advertisements, you
can eliminate the ads and the ad venues
that are weak. This will free up your
time and money to concentrate on your
more productive advertising efforts.
It will take a little time, but by trying
new ads and new ad venues, you
will begin to increase your traffic and
your income will increase.
