Thanks. Paid advertising is pretty much useless, unless you have very deep pockets. We just splashed a bit of cash on it as we needed to do everything possible to break into the Top 25 'Golden Zone'. We also got a very good deal at $0.01 CPC and they matched our initial deposit of $250.

Thanks for confirming. Do you think the initial ad spend was worthwhile? (Do you think you would have gotten into the Top 25 without it?)

probably could have broken into the Top 25 without it, but didn't want to risk not advertising, just in case we didn't.
