CPM Abri - Lets Go!

April 9th, 2008 by Jon Waraas

Well it looks like a few of you are getting the right idea on the lasts posts comment area. A few have mentioned that you guys have the idea, but just don’t know a good place to send the traffic. Finding the right place to send the traffic is the hardest part. But its also the most important. In my years of doing arbitrage I find that generally networks WANT your traffic, but they just want it under the counter and without anyone knowing.

I will be referring to the place that I send the ads to as the feed. A feed is usually a mix of ads that are from big ad networks (such as Yahoo), in-house advertisers, and sometimes a mix of everything. The feed works the same way as regular Adsense. The better your CTR the better your CPC. If your getting like a 60% CTR then you might be getting $0.40 CPC, but if your getting a 10% CTR then you might only be getting a $0.08 CPC. Thats the same way Adsense works. So you need to work on that CTR. And the only way to do that is to find targeted traffic.

One ways to get targeted traffic is using Adwords. I know of at least 2 people that are doing $600 a day using this method. But the other way is to buy up private traffic from quality sites, which is what I do. I find people who have great sites and cut a deal with them to buy impressions from them for a certain price. The sites I currently use sell there traffic for $0.18 CPM. And the feed I will be sending the traffic to will be about $0.30 CPC. My ad will be clicked on about 1.5% CTR. I am hoping to get at least 40% CTR on the feed. I will probably break even the first few days, but after that I want to make at least 70% ROI. Am I loosing you yet? Anyways, the advertiser I found currently has about $300 a day of traffic to buy up. My goal is to turn that $300 a day into $500 a day. That is a pretty big goal but I will at least be making $100 a day profit, but my goal is to make $200 a day profit.

Tomorrow is the first day of testing, I will be testing with $52 worth of CPM ad space. That should hopefully sent me 600 uniques to my feed. And if at least 200 people click on ads on the feed I will break even. From there I will tweak and tweak until I am spending $52 and making something like $100 a day. Then just buy more traffic and keep tweaking until Im at there max and Im making $200 a day profit. But we will see. With my luck I will probably be negitive the first few days until I tweak everything around.

Meanwhile you guys will be learning to how eaily make money. I swear to god it only takes me like an hour a day to manage all this shit once its set up… just imagine making $6000 a month working 20 hours a week? AND this is plus that 10k I make a month from my SEO shit. Oh not to mention the vacations I can take every 4 months because of all the points on my credit card. Man its tough in this line of biz

But thats if everything going according to plan… which it wont. Wish me luck!

P.S - I also think its way funny that back in high school I failed math horribly. I never believed that I would be using the shit that they tough me back in the day. But now I regret not learning more math because I use math all day long now. I am always solving for X and doing pretty hard math. I should have used that free schooling to my benefit back than lol.
