As time and money are important assets in online business, it is wise to think on optimizing these resources. Tracking the ads is what differentiates a pro from a newbie.

I must admit that being a newbie my first business promotion efforts ended up in frustration and loss of my scarce money. I had some idea of ad tracking programs, but at that time they seemed too complicated to install at my server or too expensive to pay for an on line ad tracking service. Nowadays, I can’t hardly imagine running a campaign without tracking my ads.

As the number of websites on the net increases exponentially day by day, it is in this way much more difficult to get good search positioning for competitive keywords in the busiest search engines. This means that, although the organic traffic is the best traffic a website can have, it is at the same time, the most difficult to achieve. You already know this.

As one can not expect to build a significant traffic on the search engines when launching a new business or promoting new products or affiliate programs, traffic services are on the raise. From the more conventional advertising resources in ezines and pay per click engines, up to the most sophisticated traffic exchange services. One thing is true: the more you advertise, the more results you get in your business. Two problems arise from this approach though; a) your advertising efforts may suck your earnings or even worse, finish your campaign with a net loss of money and b) you must be aware of the quality of traffic you are bringing to your site. Normally quality is associated with paid services as paid services manage to send more targeted visitors; in this way, selecting an advertising service depends on the subject of your website or the nature of your promotion. But then, How do you know if you are getting enough quality of traffic?. Just by tracking the results of your ads.

Normally to get results, you need to invest time in traffic generating resources like forum postings and article writing, as well as money in paid services for that matter, like targeted ezine ads, pay per click engines or Google Adwords.
