Nervous when you first started campaigns in adwords?

    As most people understand it takes money to make money and we need to take a few chances, but when you first began using adwords did it make you feel nervous? :)

    I mean having limits set within the campaign at least stops things from spiralling out of control, but i dont mind admitting, while im learning the ropes i feel genuinely nervous, lol

    I guess its not a bad thing, keeps me researching, tweaking and testing.

    I wouldn't call the 'nervous' i reckon. I'm rather irritated when you don't know a lot of things about adwords and when they keep charging you 30 pounds a day and you hardly receive 5 enquiries :) but i'm getting there.. :)

    I just started myself and it is quite intimidating. however, it can be alot of fun. checking the stats and setting up various campaigns.

    That's natural. I figured I'd lose money in the beginning and chalked it up to "online tuition." Seriously, when you compare the money risked acquiring skills to college tuition, it isn't that much and can lead to long term gains.

    Trying to cast my mind back I remember checking my stats almost constantly. I must have spent as much on mobile data charges than Adwords itself lol

    Well ofcourse one will be nervous definately for the same reason you set limits

    Nervousness is if it goes on increasing and if no conversion, then its too much to bear

    Anyways Pipes is common feeling and its natural after all its earned money with hard work
