    I'm planning to advertiser my blog on Adwords. That will be my first time. I just need a help from you. How is Google Adwords. Can I get traffic from it. It harms SEO or not? and how much I have to spend on it for advertising?

    Hope you can clear me about it.

    its not a one answer fits all subject,

    but yes you can generate traffic through placing PPC ads using ADwords

    cost can be different for different time of year or even month. (christmas niche good example)

    You can generate tons of traffic from AdWords. But make sure you generate the right keywords because you don't want the wrong people clicking on your ads.

    You can stop your ads any time.
    tip: start with a small budget experiment and least keywords, then when you learn the system scale it.

    You have full control over the ads, but it's hard if you don't sell anything to get the money back and blogs are mostly made to get free visitors from content. And for seo no problem, it's javascript, not good and not bad, it happens just nothing.

    You might end up paying a high price for each click depending on what niche your blog are in.

    The price you pay for each click also depends on the quality of your content in your blog and how related Adwords values it to your chosen keywords.
    Adwords works towards creating quality content for its users, and if you cannot deliver that, you are going to pay a high price for your clicks.

    So really need to sit down and lay out a plan.

    The price very much depends in a couple of factors. First of all how relevant your ads and keywords are to your site, the content on your site and of course the competition in the current niche you are in.

    AdWords can give you high quality traffic, but it will be very expensive if you don't have any experience with ppc. Also thoroughly their rules.

    AdWords can give you good traffic and can be set according to your business requirements. There are a lot of settings in there to keep your campaign precise and gain great results in terms of ROI.
    The amount that you'll need to spend on your campaign will depend on a lot of factors. The most important factor is how competitive is the niche of your site. The CPC also depends on the quality of your website and relevance to the topic of your site. You can set a maximum daily budget and depending on it the positioning is determined by Google and your budget is exhausted by the day's end.

    I have read you'll get more traffic if you target your ads to "Search" instead of "content."

    We are in the same boat BlogH as I try to gather google adsense to promote the site I am working on. Like everyone above stated I would say undoubtedly keywords is the main factor. But let me warn you, that you can loose a lot of money if you don't get the right keywords. When you get a chance if you have not already play around by creating some ads with the keywords you plan on using and see what your competition is like...as in go on google ad sense and see what the keywords are currently going for. Then figure out if you could afford to use those keywords with your budget in mind. I wish you the best.

    you can add and remove any ad anytime through compaign management
    but adding new ad is subject to approval..
    That means your site must meet adwords terms of service

    If you have experience in researching good keywords which brings you more loyal visitors, you can do wonders with adwords. Otherwise it is an expensive advertising.

    Adwords has no effect on SEO, but you alexa will increase and if you do it right, your average time on site per visitor will increase.
