Wow, what a relief. Finals are finally over. I had three exams today and I am pretty spent. This semester I had some pretty difficult classes (Mechanics of Materials, Differential Equations, Dynamics, and Thermodynamics were the tough ones). Now I’m looking forward to some solid time just affiliate marketing and running.

Some updates on the affiliate marketing front…

I was running some good volume through Facebook last week and I was seeing great margins. Unfortunately, NeverBlueAds had to drop my payout from $1.60 to $.60 because the advertiser said my traffic wasn’t converting. I told my affiliate manager that I understood. I don’t want the advertisers to lose money when using these affiliate networks because it is bad for the industry.

With that said, I spotted that same advertiser the next day running a copy of my ad on Facebook. I know a lot of people on Facebook are copying ads already and it’s something you just have to live with. But that wasn’t what bothered me. What bothered me was that the advertiser said my traffic wasn’t good enough, but they are now running the same ad copy to the same demographic that I was running. That makes the advertiser look awful.

On a good note, I found an offer two days ago on Hydra that put me back over $100 profit yesterday. The margins aren’t quite as good as the last offer I was running, but as Farmer Hoggett says in Babe, “That’ll do, pig. That’ll do.”
