My first $160 in CPA Bing Ads

For those that don't think that Bing is worth it.. hmmm... I'd seriously question that. I have a new campaign running. CPA payout is $80 and I made my first $160 today. For those that don't think it's achievable or that Bing isn't worth it.. you couldn't be more wrong.

Campaign not even running a full 48 hours. Budget was $50 yesterday and another $100 today, but considering the traffic and the scalability of this product, I'm hopeful that there is a lot more money to be made so with some tweaks to the campaign by digging into the data I think will lead to a better ROI but in my mind it's encouraging to have achieved that in less than 2 days. CTR is amazing.. over 10% the first day and just under 7% today.

This might not sound like a big deal to some but for those that have been working on making any money online for a while.. let this be a little encouragement that CPA works and my method is Bing ads PPC.

Note: I've only been doing PPC for just over 3.5 weeks.

Nice! What niche are you promoting?

Thanks ! Niche is health.

I've a long plan to go with bing but unfortunately can't setup payment method because of not having a VCC or real CC. Best of luck.

I know how to create $150 threshold accounts from Bing but lately the accounts get locked. I'm looking for a good VCC that works with Bing.

I tried many vcc and they don't work. After creating the account, it gets locked. You also need residential ip for that.

@mon3y4me Let me know please if you find any better solutions.

You made $10. You spent $150 in ads for a $160 return. Wouldn't ring the lottery bells yet, but good start keep going!

That was awesome!
For those that concern,$160 will not make any people rich but for a start..this was a really nice shot.
Remember back then when my first bing campaign run,i got only $20.
And i remember that moment long enough.

Congratz for your achievement mate.

Yes, only $10 but the campaign has only run for less than 2 days and the point of this post was that there were 2 conversions totaling $160. However, as with all campaigns there's going to be some tweaking that will be done to get cheaper clicks and again hopefully some additional conversions to improve the ROI. At the end of the day, maybe I break even ? If that's the case, it may come down to choosing a different product where the clicks aren't as expensive at maybe a higher product commission payout.

All in all, I'm good with it because at least now I know the process works and that was what this campaign was about. Getting to the point where I can do this in my sleep and getting even better results.

It's all about motivating some others to get out there and take action, but I appreciate your feedback either way.

Thanks ! We all have to start somewhere. Didn't have any expectations as this was more of an experiment but for just over 3 weeks getting going with Bing ads, I'm good with the results so far.

haha, man i remember when i was doing paid ads

it's all just a scam really lol. you get so excited when you make a little bit of money, but then realize it's an unstable shit hole cause the next day the algo fucks you out of your budget and gives 0 conversions haha. it's a shit show, that's why i stopped using these shitty paid ad platforms lol fuck them

oh and btw, i suggest promoting fake hack generator, it's far superior

You should try maxbounty, would be very profitable

Well I think it's a matter of continuing to tweak and make little changes and pay attention to your data. It's day 4 and I've added one more offer. I tacked on another $160 today. $80 on the offer that I showed you on the 2nd and then no other conversions since then until today. I did make a small change by cutting out the country where I saw no conversions and sticking to where I did see the conversions. I received the other $80 conversion on the new campaign I set up last night. Within the first 51 clicks, I got the conversion.

That campaign is still in it's infancy but we'll see if it converts any more in the next week.

CTR on the initial campaign was over 6% and cpc is .36 even though I should probably be paying more per click since my bid was set at .50 but my QS is a 9 on that campaign which I tend to always score above a 7 most times 8, 9 or a 10 on campaigns I set up.

Close to breaking even between my ad spend and revenue generated but with some more tweaking I'm hopeful that I'll start to net a profit. Now that may still be a turn off for some but I'm not discouraged at all. It shows me that ad platforms work while promoting CPA and it's just a matter of time before the net profit comes.

If nothing else, the information gained through my month of starting to experiment with Bing Ads is worth money in itself I'm sure if I were ever interested in putting what I've gained into a case study or course of some kind. So again.. not discouraged at all by what has transpired so far.

I don't think it's so much about the network but what you do in your research and on the offer. Many variables affect the profitability.

Try collecting emails from your visitors. Even if you break even on day 1, you can follow up and pitch your list to profit later down the line.

Keep grinding mate! I now have an understanding of how feasible Bing ads could be.

I've been in PPC for little bit less than a month now and spent over $100 on paid ads so far. My total was $216 in commission earnings that I got at the beginning of the current month.

However I must admit CTR wasn't that great for me and the customers were somewhat reluctant to buy my product, or maybe my landing pages are not well optimised along with my ads -dunno.

Anyways, I need to get around to improving a ROI and probably get the daily budget up to have even more clicks and conversions. It's certainly worth it.

are you promoting the CPA offer directly or using a landing page?
what type of ads are you using (organic/visual)?
these are some really great results, keep it up!

That's the only way. You've got to spend it to make it. I'm learning that there are going to be days where you're not going to make any money, but that doesn't mean that you should simply abandon the campaign. I've learned that 100 clicks and no sales isn't something to get upset about. Tweak the campaign and look at your data. Track your links. if there's something I'm learning is that tracking is not pretty.. but man it's helpful to get some idea as to where your conversions are coming from and by knowing that you can quit spending on traffic that isn't converting and focus on what is converting.

With that said, congrats on your success too. From what I hear getting 6% clickthrough is above average. There are keywords I have in my campaign that are doing way better than that as well. There's a lot of research that has gone into what I've done to set up the campaigns. I feel like I'm getting better and better at the art form of developing a campaign. Once you've got that going for you, you should get a really good QS and then it's just about tweaking the campaign after it's up and running.

I agree with you that it's definitely worth it.

Direct linking... surprised that it is actually working with all the adverse reactions to DL.. most say that it's not worth it. If your payout is high.. I don't see how it's not worth it especially if you can get clicks under 40 cents.
Not sure what you mean by organic but visual ads yes.. and they are highly relevant to the offer.
Thanks for the encouragement.. gonna keep testing and trying different campaigns but it's still early.. however, I'm content with the results so far. Hoping to see a day where I can do better than 2 conversions in one day.
The goal for most starting I think is to see that $100 day.
Now I'd like to see a $500 day and then a $1000 day and scale from there.
