Unconventional Ads

Posted by Matt on Mon, Jul 30 2007

RSStalker AdRSStalker.com has been doing pretty will with affiliate sales lately, so I've been looking to re-invest some of that money into the site. I've tried a few ads with limited success. I was randomly watching SeeMeWin the other night after a friend e-mailed me an article about the site. SeeMeWin is a videocast where they scratch lottery tickets. Nick, one of the guys doing the video cast, mentioned they were selling ads on the "scratch pad" (where they scratch the tickets). I figured it couldn't perform any worse then the ads I'm buying now, so for $20 I got RSStalker on the scratch pad. Yea, users can't click on anything so they're is no real way to track conversions. I'll post an update Wednesday with how well this worked.

Here's what it looked like:

Looks like RSStalker got around 25-30 additional visits from the add. For a $20 ad thats means it cost me around $.70 a visit. That doesn't seem very good, but I really have no idea.
