NeverBlueAds Looks Promising

I just recently started using NeverBlueAds. I have been reading a lot about it from Zac Johnson’s blog and his success. He has been using it for quite sometimes and have had great success with it. Well I to am having some success with it and I have only been using it for a couple days and have earned a good number to date, I think anyways for just starting with it.

What is NeverBlueAds?

NeverblueAds is a leading performance-based affiliate network. Both advertisers and affiliates recognize NeverblueAds as credible, trustworthy, and effective.

Through our network of select affiliates, we connect many thousands of qualified customers to online advertisers each year.

NeverBlueAds operate on a performance-based model, so advertisers and affiliates enjoy the benefits of efficient, custom online advertising that is constantly monitored for effectiveness.

Now that you know a little about NeverBlueAds, I want to share with you my results for the last 5 days. Though my results may not be as impressive as Zac’s 50,000 earnings, but it is a start especially if I just started.

From Zac Johnson’s 50000 Earnings Post:

I have now earned over $50,000 in commissions using their network. I tell you this not to brag or boast, but to continually motivate you. As a reader of this blog you know I am not trying to sell you products or services, I simply want you to make more money.

But here is my end result for just promoting 2 campaigns. Since I started in late November I just only earned 11$ as you can see from the graph to the left. Yesterday is when I saw the spike in earnings, just shy $50, so far for December I have earned close to $50. I think this is not bad for just 5 days of testing and working with NeverBlue.

So far I have only spent $68 on a new PPC campaign. So that means my ROI is still in the negatives but if I can duplicate my strategy over the next couple weeks prior to Christmas I think I can earn a positive ROI with NeverBlueAds.

The image to the left is another form of viewing my earnings via NeverBlueAds. These stats are right on the dashboard once logged into NeverBlue.

So for this morning when I checked my status I already earned $9.75 this is great. Earning money while I sleep, not bad I think.

I also chose specific publishers to advertise since it is the holiday season I think I would get a good turn around with specific niches for this holiday season.

Mark from 45n5.com is also testing out with NeverBlueAds and have posted an update from his experiences. He will be using PPC campaigns as well such as Adwords. I look forward to his results and stats as well.

I think these stats are pretty good with just testing it out with NeverBlueAds, I think they are far better than CJ.com which does not have that high of a payout. I do OK with CJ, especially now that I have BadCircuit.com opened I think I am doing better than before.

What I like from NeverBlueAds

When I first signed up, I received a call the next day to talk about my websites and the strategies I will be using to accomplish my tasks and goals with their publishers. I simply explained I will be doing PPC marketing and advertising via websites and other means.

We talked about one of my specific websites and I explained how I will be bringing traffic to such campaigns. With CJ.com I never talked to an ‘affiliate coach’ I just browse the campaigns and check which one is good and which isn’t. With NeverBlue I have an ‘affiliate coach’ in which I can ask certain/specific questions on a publisher etc, and the response time is usually the next day via email. I think that is what separates them from other similar networks.

Now since NeverBlueAds looks promising I think I will try to use some tactics in full swing to go ahead and get at least maybe 50$ per day? I made 50$ yesterday so I should be able to duplicate this and maybe do more testing.

    Hey Ian… Great article… I’ve been working with Mark over at 45n5 as well… I’m doing the same exact expirement with adwords and NeverBlueAds… But NBA never contacted me? I have heard nothing from them after signing up. I am testing out some things with ClickBank and Adwords… Will be writing up a short update soon! I’ll be sure to keep you updated with how it goes. Thanks for your update.

    Hey Ian, good post, and good results!

    First, I just like to say, Nice blog. I found you through blogrush.

    I am working on building up some affiliate commissions too. When using PPC, I suggest you do a TON of studying on exactly hot to get the best Cost Per Click, and highest conversion rates. You’re on the right track, and about breaking even. Concentrate on optimizing your ads.

    I’ve found the Affiliate Guide over at http://www.uberaffiliate.com to be useful in helping with optimizing/testing adwords campaigns.

    Unfortunately, I think I’m in the opposite boat as you right now. I’m getting fantastic click throughs (2.5%-2.9%) but no conversions! I need find find a better offer I think!

    Good work! I’m now subscribed. Have a good one.

    I was actually just accepted to neverblue this evening, I was using cj prior, so I’ve got my first campaign running now.

    I’ll video update tomorrow

    I read Zac’s blog as well, that’s where I came across the name NeverBlueAds.

    They contacted me last night, after I was pretty much brain dead for the day. I didn’t have a clue who they were. I finally figured it out but I am sure the guy thought I was doped up or something.

    I was approved and will learn more and take action with them today.

    Keep up the great posts Ian.

    I recently started reading uberaffiliate as well - though his facebook technique didn’t work so well for me

    > mark
    can’t wait for the update

    > james
    thanks - yup I think NBA (not basketball) should be good, I wish I started early with them

  • Frusketer said:

    NP, NeverBlue Ads is another affiliate network similar to azoogle ads and CJ.com - I think so far it looks promising as the commission is not base mostly on %

    give it a try and let me know how it goes!

  • April said:

    I have just signed up with them. It’ll be interesting to see how they differ from other affiliate sites like CJ.

    Well I have read about Neverblueads on lot of forums but unfortnately have never been able to get past of their approval. I guess they approve sites which have a lot of traffic, isn’t it. Sad mine is just a beginner site.

    Would you be able to tell if NeverBlueAds performs like CJ or Azoogle. I mean in CJ you will need to send a request to each and every advertiser and post their approval you will be able to get the banners

  • PEter said:

    I never use NeverBlueAds. Clickbank is a better way to make money I think.

  • Mademind said:

    i think i will give neverblueads also a shot. lets see how it goes.

  • Jimmy said:

    Interesting stuff. I personally think NeverBlue Ads and Vintacore are the best two networks out there. Both offer great rates and support. In addition to assigning you an affiliate manager, Vintacore gives you a mentor, which is very helpful. NeverBlue is just all around great. Keep it up!

  • Ian (author) said:

    > Jimmy
    a mentor you say? hmmmm I might have to look into this - I’m always interested in learning more

  • Dollar dude said:

    Fantastic post. Just now signed up and also received call from affiliate coach. I was accepted also…

    Can you suggest how to select a campaign for promoting the same?

  • Tom said:

    Hey Ian! I haven’t tried NeverBlueAds yet, but over the years I’ve been doing quite well with MaxBounty. When I first heard about MaxBounty I was a little reluctant to try them (as I am with all affiliate networks), but after a few months I soon realized that I made the right choice. For years I was using CJ and was extremely dissatisfied with the quality of support or should I say “lack of support”, but with MaxBounty I usually get a response to my question within 12-24 hours. Anyways, I think I’ll try NeverBlueAds, and eventually post my review. As for MaxBounty, check out this review for some more info.
