Well, we had some pretty good success with our post to give away $100 CAD in adwords. I don’t get why people submitted like 7 times, with different names, all from the same IP. Do they not think I can see that shit in the WP interface? I deleted the obvious “cheating” entries, and we were left with [Mihai @ Freshome.com][2] as the winner. Congratulations, your coupon has just been emailed out to the address you provided in your comment....

Little update to my previous post about just getting down to business and taking one vertical and running with it. I’ve successfully gotten my campaigns up and running on a couple of networks. The plan is to run 50$/day, for my specific demographic, for 5 days, in 5-6 US States that I chose.

So, as many of you know I’ve been in the game since around November 2008. I was total newb back then, and didn’t even know what things like scrubbing, or scraping or p202 meant. There was a lot of learning to be done, and a helluva lot of reading from the Gay Webmaster Forum over at wickedfire. I’ve been in the game since around 2001, but not as an AM. I’ve been mainly running Adsense across my small network, and placing some bought ads from a handful of clients across my sites, not to mention Text Link Ads....
