Search results

As you guys already know, Google no longer provides a full list of search terms that actually triggered your ad. Now instead you only get data for a limited number of terms and it can be especially bad, if you are bidding on low volume keywords, so you end up not seeing half or even more of the...

What would be the point in doing that? You're selling a product with branding (logo/text) of a registered trademark, so it's only a matter of time until it gets picked up by VeRO and taken down again? And you're risking not just a listing removal, but possible account suspension. Might be a...

Hey mate, thanks for the excellent thread. When you say you sell "branded items", do you mean items that have registered trademarks? I recently had a listing removed under eBay's VeRO program, because the product contained the name of the trademark owner, so there wasn't much I could do. What...

What about before you get to the stage of communicating with your existing suppliers? You want to enter a new niche, so what is your research like on TeraPeak? Is it just keyword-based or there's a more efficient way of doing it? Any tips/tricks?

Do you use any other tools apart from TeraPeak to do the product research and decide what to import? If so, what are those? I've been watching some TeraPeak videos on Youtube and I noticed that the current version that they have is very limited compared to what they offered 2-3 years ago. You...

If you are in the US, importing legal products from China and conducting a genuine business on eBay, what's the reason for "stealth accounts"? Can't you just sell everything under one real account and raise whatever selling limits there may be by verifying your account/providing whatever proof...

Well done on Black Friday sales. How about the size of the products? I'm assuming you deal with small, compact items, so they are easy to pack into an envelope/jiffy bag and send out? No bulky, heavy stuff?

Read through the whole thread, but couldn't find anything related to sourcing. Where do you source your products from (websites?) and what is your average product price? Just trying to figure out whether you sell a few expensive items at $100+ or you deal with cheaper products? And how do you...

Random guy can't put 2 words of English together, posts a thread saying he makes almost $1k/day, thanking BHW brothers and sisters - must be genuine. Oh, and the long guide he wanted to post on how he does it, somehow got lost. Just don't PM him, because he no do no coaching....

If you are talking about search volumes, then obviously it's not a 100% representation of the actual numbers, but just an average based on the previous 12 months, like others have mentioned. And also keep in mind that if you rank #1 for a keyword that gets 10k searches per month, it doesn't...

I don't understand what's this obsession with using coupons? Are you really planning on doing any serious PPC, when you are not even willing to spend $100 out of your own pocket? That $100 will get you absolutely nowhere, especially if you are new to PPC advertising, whether it's Bing or...

Another vote for TrackingDesk - a personal account for $50/month (depending on how many impressions you generate) is well worth it, if you are regularly doing PPC. The free version is limited to 10k impressions per month, so that might not last you long...

Can anyone recommend any good affiliate networks for digital products, similar to Clickbank and Software Projects? P.S. Looking for paid-per-sale offers.

Glad you're still around, wanted to thank you for this thread and all your contributions to it. I managed to figure out how to get cheapish clicks for decent keywords, while also getting a strong CTR and a good volume, appearing in top 3. Last piece of the puzzle I'm trying to solve is the...

Sometimes it's just a glitch when the status of the keyword says that, but then you are actually still getting impressions/clicks, so nothing to worry about. Or if it's a completely dead keyword with volume next to nothing, it could possibly happen as well.

I tried direct linking for regular products (not $1 trials) and I can say it's a 100% waste of time. You get like 100+ hops and not even a single person goes to the order page, let alone buys something. Although, the results could be different for $1 trials, but I wouldn't know, because I...

Have you tried taking this up with Adwords, without telling them anything specific? Just say you think that there is possible click fraud going on with your campaign lately and see if they manage to pick up anything unusual on their side?

How did the competitor threaten you? Do you have any direct proof of that? If you could present this as a clear case to Adwords, after a few emails and phone calls, it's very likely that Google could possibly ban his advertising account, but this is only if you provide good evidence to support...

@karmandy93 What tips would you give for creating a landing page from scratch? My CTR indeed dropped to around 20% after implementing the changes, so I want to start from the basics and see what I'm doing wrong, rather than keep randomly changing things without making any progress.... In...

Thanks for pointers regarding the landing page @karmandy93 As I previously mentioned, my landers used to be quite long (1k words), so I've made them slightly shorter now, down to 500-600 words. Also funny you mentioned the links at the top of the page, because I made that mistake as well - I...
