I’ve posted before about how I spend a lot of money on a Adwords campaign on irrelevant keywords. I found a similar story recently from one of my favorite affiliate bloggers, Johnathon Volk, a “super” affiliate. He posted recently about losing $3,500! Why? Because:

I have been registering and developing websites for a while now. I started my first site in 2000.
