		<description>I had almost the exact same trend of a great start and then plummeting results ( I actually had a couple of $40 plus clicks in June of 2007 and this month I'll be lucky to make $40 total for the entire month ... so much potential and then it tanks ... too bad, I guess I'll try widgetbucks.</description>

		<description>[...] Goodbye Auction Ads I first ran across ZacJohnson.com several months ago and have had the site in my feedreader ever since. It first caught my eye when I was running AuctionAds on one of my sites with minimal success. It was nice to see I wasn’t the only one dissatisfied with AuctionAds. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] I&#8217;m not that surprised, nor upset. These are initial stats and this just means I need to do more testing. Setting the category of ads shown to &#34;Movies&#34; will likely pull in the most clicks, but are probably low earning clicks. I will not start tracking and monetizing the program by running a few other categories and see how they perform. I will keep running the program at least until I hit my minimum payment requirements. AuctionAds wasn&#8217;t that great the first month I ran them, but the next month after, I was able to rack up $1700+ in commissions. [...]</description>

		<description>Hey -

Maybe a dumb questions here, but what are you using to generate that graph from the monthly impression, clicks, revenue table??

Looks like a screen shot of excel on a mac ..

BUT, would you be willing to share your spreadsheets you use for tracking your aff marketing efforts?

Don't need data, just the tracking tools ... I am still looking for spreadsheets that will work for me for this. 

Thank in advance if you can share.</description>

		<description>That's a pity, I expect the spike was due to user interest in the beginning until they got the wiser and realised they were ads and became immune to them as well!</description>
