Total PPC noob looking for a place to learn ...

    I have never done PPC but I am eager to learn and try my hand at generating revenue in my evening as opposed to playing more MMOPG games. Besides it will make the wife happier too ! :D

    So am looking for some "where to start" help. I have read a bunch online but still struggle with what the baby steps are to actually get started.

    My situation :

    • I do own some domain names
    • I do not have any web sites up on my domains
    • I am somewhat web/tech savy
    • I can afford to spend a little to learn
    • I do have a Google Adsense account (although its never really been used)

    Anyone have any advice where I can start reading ? Where I could find a simple, outlined, step by step how to get started walk through ? Heck I'd even be delighted to work with someone familiar with the whole thing on a project doing lots of the leg work to learn if someone wants a partner in a venture?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I would start off with a proxy site. Any domain name would work with a proxy.
    Just download Phproxy script (google it) and advertise on yahoo proxy groups, or hire someone in the BST-->Services-->Advertising section to do it.

    Good luck, BTW, The more relevant your ads are your ads are to proxys, the more clicks, and ad placement plays a major part ;).

    That sounds like anything BUT the best advice. ;)

    Anyway, are you looking to invest in PPC to make affiliate money, or go for content and make PPC money? Big difference, and to me it's not fully clear what your goal is!

    The first part: can't help you.

    Second: glad to give you any advice I can give. Bookmarking topic. :)

    You don't even know what his question is so don't give me sh!t about my advice.

    This is how I make money, and it's simply the easiest thing to do. Apparently he wants to use adsense.

    One more thing, check your user CP, your "subscribed" to the thread, no need to bookmark it.

    Thanks for the replies. I guess I am unclear in my request because I still don't really grasp whats possible and whats required.

    I am looking to create passive revenue and to capture email/names along the way. I am open to any direction that is noob friendly so I can learn along the way with little capital at risk.
