Hey, I'm Attila 👋

I've been running paid ads since 2008 - not teaching them, actually running them, every day. This is where I break down what's working right now, what just broke, and the exact mechanics of how I fix it. A lot of it runs on AI automation I built myself. No flexing, no theory - just the real how, for free.

A Little About Me

I've been a full-time affiliate marketer since 2008 - eighteen years in the trenches of paid traffic. Not a coach, not a course-seller. I run real campaigns every single day: battling the Meta algorithm, handling policy changes at 2am, getting accounts flagged and relaunching again before breakfast. 14-hour days, still.

What makes this blog different is that I show the how, not the highlight reel. Most "experts" in this space are selling courses about ads they stopped running years ago. I'm still doing the work, and I write down the actual mechanics - the settings, the structures, the stuff that breaks and the exact fix. That's the part nobody who's faking it can ever show you.

Lately, most of my edge comes from automation. I've built an AI-run media-buying operation using Claude Code and custom agents - launching, testing, and scaling with a stack that does what used to take a whole team. I write about exactly how it works, because it's the biggest shift this game has seen in a decade.

I started this blog back in 2013 as my own field notebook - what worked, what flopped, what I'd do differently. Thousands of marketers found it useful and it became one of the most-read blogs in the industry. Everything on it is still free. When I'm not in the accounts: I grew up in Vancouver, live in Budapest now with my wife and kids, and I've never stopped hustling.
