Default Lowest Cost PPC Testing for Affiliates sites?

Hi,

Since natural search engine is not very reliable source for traffic (my 2 months site just drop the yahoo ranking from page 1 to nowhere), I like to test PPC for my sites.

Since my site is new, I don't know the conversion rate of my site, so I do not know how to calculate whether is it profitble or not using PPC campaign.

So I'd like to test PPC with the lowest cost possible.

My question is what PPC should be used, that can provide good traffic at the lowest cost, so you can get the feel about conversion rate of my site? Thanks.

There are lots of PPCs you could choose for a test.
www.7Search.com, www.GenieKnows.com, www.Searchfeed.com.

I've used Findwhat and that would be a very expensive, and dissapointing test.

www.overture.com google ad words www.fastclick.com www.adhearus.com

Watch out of findwhat.com, they will drain your account balance real quick! (not too sure if there click-fruad protected, very few of the visitors I pay for ever get to my site :( )

Thanks for all your input, I know there are many PPC out there that make it difficult to choose.

I've been use overture and google adwords before, but for this purpose (to find convertion ratio of my site) I prefer to use second tier PPC.

So, if you have good experience with searchfeed, allfeeds, search123, etc., would you care to share?

Thanks

whatever you do... DO NOT USE Kanoodle! talk about useless traffic... major click-fraud going on there.

I have found that 7search and goClick are both good. The only problem is they don't have much traffic for keywords that are not massively popular.

I wish i could get my $50 back from Kanoodle. o'well lessons learned.
