So I tried advertising a cb ad on adf.ly and here are the results (so far):

$8 = 10,000 views.
Hopcount = 7,400
Order form impression = 6
Sales = 0

=( The ad was for a paleo recipe book which Google insights tells me is hot right now.

Just because a product is "hot" according to Google insights, doesn't mean it'll sell to anyone. Using adf.ly to advertise a recipe book is terribly untargeted. The type of people clicking adf.ly links are more interested in video games and downloads, for example.

This =)

i think it's also important to note that adf.ly traffic is shit. I'd try promoting your product in another manner.

Adfly visitors are hard to convert in the first place and if it requires the user spending money (purchasing a cb product) then it'll be even harder. Overall, as stated above, Adfly visits are interested in downloading music or movies and playing video games.

What do you suggest doing without a website? I'm new lol.

I think adf.ly is only good to lower your adsence ctr
