I've been making instructional videos for my lotto affiliates this week using Camtasia. It's a great package for showing someone exactly what they need to do and it's quite easy to edit and annotate too. I put some google ads on either side of the production and if someone finds one of them interesting they give it a click!
My latest video is at this page and has already had a click! I haven't even put the URL out to my team yet. My lotto blog is only making a few cents a day now. The problem is there isn't enough lottery adsense out there seeing as google doesn't like gambling in any way. It was ok to start because many lottery affiliates try out google for advertising (until their ads get removed) and many visit my blog. When they see someone advertising a lottery syndicate on adsense they automatically click it to see what the competition is like and I get a few pennies.
I'm not sure the space could be used more profitably with my own ads though...hmmm maybe I will make some ads for my own things but put them up just like adsense code. No-one used to click the banner I had for my grab a grand page when it was there but there have been multiple clicks on the adsense banner so time for a re-design methinks! Can't just rely on adsense to pay my rent!
I've started a new co-op venture with some experienced affiliates where we all put together and help each other out with a forced matrix type deal so everyone gets the same benefits. It's a pretty cool Lottery Syndicate and with the amount of experience we have all got, we should get it up to free play within a few weeks.
awesome!
