CPC? Hah

Posting first on TC does send a decent amount sometimes, but as with anything comments should be in moderation.

Also, perhaps this guy is the smartest man ever

There was a period where I’d consistently be the first person to comment. It might have gotten me few dozen visits t my blog at best but like others have mentioned, it’s by no means scalable as adbrite might be.

If want even more fun, try getting a trackback on Seth Godin’s post. Now if you consistently do it you can get couple hundred referrals a day consistently;) Of course that’s when you realize that retaining them and actually having something compelling to show to them is a bigger challenge than pasting the trackback code.

You’ve got it all wrong. You just need to start charging $3.00 CPC (cost per comment)

Daryn, maybe you have a point.

But again, my objectives for the experiment were different - I wanted to check the quality of traffic, and at around 10 cents per CPC, I do have a decent sample there for $5.

Will post what I found out soon.

If you’re only going to spend $5 on adbrite per day, you’re probably better off going to coffeeshop or bar, buying someone a drink, and telling them about your product.
