Usually the more targeted the better the results. Popular keywords have more traffic and more clicks but if your just starting out that will just eat your money. Try to get 3-5 exact match words .PPC is a casino when you go to the casino you have money to burn and hope you win it might take a while but once you win you usually go bad to the same table till your luck runs out. then you find a new table. If your trying to cut loses you already lost.
 
I have really bad experience with 7search, only traffic I got from them is robots, always same IP addresses with only last numbers changed like "same.same.same.changing" I guess that they have the list of people to who they will offer quality traffic, example "K" because he will provide a good word about them.
 
I have yet to have a positive ROI from 7Search. I have run 5 or 6 campaigns in the recent months. I've followed the case studies, and such. Tried dating, submits, etc. I've done the partner blocking (a must! lots of fraud and bots on 7Search), split test landers, direct links, copy, etc. Just can't get a positive ROI on their platform. I was prepared to spend a couple thousand on these campaigns, but I have decided to go a different direction and get into media buys. I think there is better opportunity with MB's. That said, I have had some success with POF and I'll continue tweaking my efforts there.

I'm reasonably new to CPA (7 months), but I have a reasonably successful background with other online marketing. Mostly client acquisition for professional brick and mortar as well as a deep background supporting the Realtor markets online. I am pretty methodical and analytical. I understand the traffic sources like 7Search, but I have to tell you that everywhere I see 7Search posted in forums these days i see two things repeatedly expressed: a diluted pool of traffic and fraudulent clicks. In my experience, with over 40 years in business experience, if you have to work too hard in making something happen, it may never be sustainable once you get there.

Maybe some of us just don't understand 7Search's audience for some reason. However, at present, I believe that it requires too much effort for too little reward. If I am wrong, then show me what works, don't just tell me it works.

I think if they enforced the "rules" they have it might improve the quality. Even if you put a diamond in a pile of crap a lot of people wouldn't grab it. I may be over speaking but when you put rules like no duplicate sites. And the results look like this:

Answergrab
answergrab
vivasearch
shopr
yoursite
vivasearch
vivasearch
compareus
shopr
answergrab

And every site is a simple adsense Arbitrage, so if you break all the rules you might have success at 7search.

7Search Arbitrage Policy

To ensure that our search results provide relevant, useful information to Web surfers, websites featuring low quality/scraped content, or sites which offer no content outside of contextual advertising (banners/richmedia ads/links), will not be allowed to participate in the 7Search advertising program.


Duplicate Keywords for Multiple Pages

No duplicate websites may appear under the same keyword. In order to maintain quality search results for our surfers, we do not allow duplicate URL listings for the same search return list.

This includes but is not limited to:

The websites with the same domain, such as Pay-Per-Click (PPC) Search Engine Advertising Network | 7Search.com and sub page www.7search.com/affiliate for a more targeted keyword may not both appear for the same keyword. Only one page may be displayed for each search term. Choose the most targeted page for the keyword.


Not sure if this is sanctioned buy out or they are not paying attention. if they enforced either one of these rules it would give regular sites and affiliate links a valid shot. It is what it is..... a double standard.

You just need to block the bad channels - email them and ask them to allow you to block IP's on your traffic.

See I do not agree with that, I personally feel if they want you to buy their traffic then they should do their part by blocking bad channels on their own.

I personally tried 7search, I pulled some leads but never made more then I spent there, I Just stick with Bing and Adwords because at least there I know the traffic is something someone is actually typing in and are interested.
 
If 7search is hard to get volume why do people keep recommending it. I am just wondering???
Because the clicks are comparatively cheaper to other search PPC networks so you dont need a very large budget to test offers and you can learn search PPC.
Once you get a hang of it next thing to do would be to go to Bing and setup campaigns there, traffic will be much higher in both quality and volume.
 
Bare in mind that was over 2months and it did most of the revenue in a month until someone copied my campaign - thats the worst thing about PPC - the campaigns don't go unnoticed :(!

Copied your campaign = steal your campaign? Or both are different?
