Yea, people are secretive about the niches that are making money on autopilot. But i guess they stumbled upon it after much trial and testing. I know i will get there too. But with PPC money is the big issue. I'm playing with other niches as well but one at time. I'm learning it to slowly. You just need to the research and prepare everything before you launch a new campaign. I learned that the hard way but then i think i wouldn't have learn that if i didn't lose money initially. Now i know to not just jump in and start bidding on keywords. Before promoting anything you have to look at many things.

I'm know ppc is hard but i know it will work for me. So, I'm going at it with passion and taking note of all the mistakes im making. Thou, I'm still gonna resort to building content and sites because I know it always gonna work no matter what. It's might not me the fastest root, but it is the safest.

My PHP site is doing well traffic wise. Getting 300-400 visitors a day now. Mostly from google. I've started building my opt-in list as well. I send frequent updates to my list.

Building a list is good but its costs too much in my opinion . $19.99/mo for aweber subscription is little high i think. So, im kind of worried if i'll be able to continue. As long as i find a job soon, i wouldn't mind that but i still think $19.99 is high.


I don't know if just me or the niche is like this but I'm having hard time making sales to anything i promote on my php site. I recently put links to some good PHP/MySQL books and im promote the link in the emails to my list as well. Thus far i have no sales. But it's only been a week so far so kind of hard to say right now. But for instance, with hosting, i have only had 1 big sale so far.

Webdev,

I admire your dedication and I think you are going to be fine. Like you said it takes time. PPC takes a lot of testing, trial, etc. but if you keep it up you'll eventually find a profitable niche. I've never heard of anyone getting it right on the first, second or even third try. I was always just too impatient to keep at PPC so I admire your never-give-up attitude.

Hang in there. I'll be reading about your success story soon.

Hi Webdev... see? Both Lisa and I cannot be wrong...
You're gonna do great, and your determination will definitely pay off, just keep hanging in there!

With PPC, just remember, it's much easier at first to identify a hungry, urgent, or a must-have-it market... and try to target keywords that are late in the process of decision-making... but I have babbled about this enough already in previous posts.
