I’ve been away in Germany for S+ (Security +) training for work. The class was basically a cram session to get me prepared for the CompTIA exam that I have to take within the next 30 days. The class was extremely boring however it did get me away from the office for a week.

Presently I have been absorbed in researching and learning all about PPC affiliate marketing. For those of you that are not familiar with pay per click affiliate marketing it is a web-based marketing via the use of search engines such as Google, Yahoo and MSN ads for which you pay for and in return the businesses compensates you after a purchase or related transaction has occurred from your marketing efforts. An excellent resource for history and a more indebt look can be located on wiki affiliate marketing.

There are several recommendations on books that you should read in order to become a super affiliate. I have decided and purchased “Marshall’s Definitely Guide to Adwords” from Amazon and I will comment later on my thoughts after I finish reading it.

A great quote that I found while reading superaffiliatemindset; “I’m doing what 99.9% of people are not willing to do, which why I will live like 99.9% can people only dream of living.”

Affiliate Networks
Recommended affiliate networks to join; Commission Junction, LinkShare, ClickBank, Performics, Neverblue, RocketProfit. I am currently using Neverblue for my PPC campaign but I have signed up for all of these networks at one point in time.

Affiliate Tools: Aaron Wall from seobook.com has the best selection of tools that I’ve found in one location. Great Ad Tips: Googlelady provides great adwords insight on what ads work and do not work.

Search Engines
The top three search engines to run your PPC campaigns on are Google, Yahoo and MSN. I have chosen to open an account with Google which offers a $50 signup coupon and Yahoo that offers a $100 coupon after signup. After setting up my campaign I noticed that the bid competition for keywords is higher in Yahoo than in Google but supposedly from what I’ve read Yahoo has better ROI (return on investment).

PPC Expense
For my first experimental campaign I have decided to start out with $600 split between Google and Yahoo with the coupons my total expense came to $450. I have seen posted expenses on affiliate sites that range from $0 to $100,000 per month.
