I have finally tweaked my settings to get more reasonable stats/results. Example: Impressions 21,274 clicks 177 CTR 0.83 CPC 0.59

I finally got avg CPC down from 1.50. I had to learn the hard way. Traffic on my site has doubled from 100 visitors per day to over 200 visitors per day. My autoresponder is full of new subscribers. I need some advice on where to get higher commissions on affiliate programs so I can take this to the next level. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bruce

Bruce,

Having new subscribers is a great thing. One of the best things to do with a list is to start to build a relationship with them, identify what they need, what they like to read about, and give it to them.

As for higher paying commissions, I would first start by identifying what kinds sub-niches you would like to target. Once you identify a few sub-niches, I may be able to help you find affiliate products to promote.

My suggestion would be to click on the Top Right of here where it says (LISA ON YOUTUBE random topics) and click on the video that says Afilliates or which affiliates, and you'll see what she says about amazon, and paydot.com etc. but just to let you know Clickbank and paydotcom per higher that Amazon, Although many people do use Amazon because of its reputation and credibility it might be a good idea not too limit yourself to just 1 or 2 affiliates.
Amazon may pay the least however some people make it up on sales/quantity.

Hello,
Is adwords free like adsense???

ahmedwali,

Adwords is not free. When I signed up (long time ago), it was $5 to activate a new account. After that, you can create ads and bid on keywords, then your account would be charged every time someone clicks on your ad.

So you mean to say you're paying for traffic to get new subscribers but haven't been sending them responders and don't know where to start with your list? OUCH!

You should have started converting from your list already my friend. What is your website about? If you having trouble finding networks and products with the niche you're in, I say check Clickbank first. Clickbank ebooks work best with email list. BUT build relationship with the people on your list first like Sherif said. Then send them emails with promotional links. I don't know much about email marketing. Start searching form some good articles on email marketing.
