Do I ever give up?
We have a couple of affiliate sites that are also not making any money. A buck a night? Never seen one. Looking at the sites, they both have zero pagerank on all the pages. And if I try to pay for some link loving through google adwords, then the links come in at about a dollar apiece.
Obviously the quality score isn’t good enough.
Something will trigger though, something will happen. I’m sure of it. I think I need to work on the “landing pages” - the pages that encourage the reader to go buy the affiliate product, and I need to cloak the links somehow. We’ll get the QS up there.
I also paid someone for 100 links per site; that’ll get me a little more traffic / pagerank. More than one would be nice. Not paying for the links directly but paying for 100 directory submissions, which should be worth something.
