    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    I think it depends on where the traffic is coming from (geotargeting wise). Traffic from different regions can produce different PPCs for the same keyword.

    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    first, Google recalculates revenue based upon quality of traffic.
    Also similar ads pay different. For example, if someone clicked on a generic hydroponics ad from HydroHarrys.com, he might pay $0.10. The same HydroHarry ad using the term "Hydroponic systems" may pay $2.00 per click
    or
    Someone may be agressively seeking traffic from 9-10 PM, they raise their budget during these times. Clicks made during this time are more than normal because of the competition. Both, before and after this time, click payouts may be lower because of lack of competition.

    PPC fluctuates dramatically with sedo. That's the pitfall.

    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    sedo is the one who decides this

    so if they make 3 bucks and they feel like the ppc was a good term

    the decide im worth .13 and if they make 2.99 they can choose to give me .

    03 am i on the right track? is all ppc like this "they decide"

    sample

    Advertiser's Max Bid: $2.99 overture foreclosure

    i make .13

    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    The overture bids can give you an idea of what ppc will be but its important to remember that our upstream provider is Google and the bid prices can be quite different. Additionally, Overture bids are gross, before the ad provider (in this case Overture) or the parking companies take their shares. Beyond this, like forsaken said other factors can influence the click price. Even if 75% of the traffic is from the US there's no guarantee that they're clicking on the top ad. They may be clicking on ads further down the page or doing searches for other information. The related links (behavioral) section of the parking page will indicate if the latter is the case.

    SedoPro users can see the top searches for each domain as well as the geographic breakdown of your traffic to help with such optimization.

    It makes sense to experiment with keywords. Perhaps another will work better than foreclosure.

    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    wow

    my question is who decides what i get paid

    is there a format for the amount of ppc income that get's split

    sample

    ppc paid 2.00 i get 1.00

    ppc paid 1.99 i get .13

    and is there an audit i can do to protect the generated income

    As is, Google keeps its pay rates secret. I doubt sedo, bound by the same rules, would disclose that. It's part of the game.

    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    just go direct with google. Why give sedo or any parking such a big cut?
    I am doing this now and revenue has skyrocketed. I had a PPC Template programed for me and am in the process of moving all my sites.

    Sorry, to clarify, what exactly are you talking about here? Adsense or the actual google parking?

    I ask because I've actually heard that the revenue drops for many people when they go direct with google parking, primarily due to the % of payout being tied to your revenue levels. sedo & others aggregate more traffic and get a bigger cut and pass it along. That said, I don't know many people with the minimum $XXXX / day area to get in the program that have actually bothered to try it out.

    adsense. I have found the payout to be 4-6 times sedo on some keywords.

    Re: sedo ppc two of the same terms

    Another dissapointing week, 50% down today. And I can't blame it on the Superbowl as I get the same number of clicks. It's the PPC that's gone way, way South.
