Hi I thought it was about time to ask some questions and since I have started to make some friends here I go. 1. Adwords - Can I have a free hosting website for adwords, example. somewhere.freehost.com if not, what exactly can I do to get around this? I am sure there are ways, I just need some help. There has to be ways to use google adwords without owning a website ??? No??? I have a place for creating wbsites without having their ads but it always says myname.freehost.com. and the website doesn't have ads. 2. If the answer to question 1 was no then please advise me on what to do. I have no talent in creating websites and... I don't want a website where I send my visitors from google adword --> landing page with a preview of the original ad ---> then the pitchpage. this seems rediculous. who wants to travel all over the place. I know I have heard from people to create your own page and send them right to the cashout page. This seems smart, but this brings me to my original question of can I use free hosting? 3. Is there a place "other" then google, If the first question was NO, that I can use to ppc my ads using freehosting? That's all for right now, thank you all for some good answers in advance. Mya girls rock! Bunch
I had a similiar question to that. Do u guys think using Google page creator or microsft office live for landing page is a good idea? I know if u use google, you will have url of sitename.googlepages.com whereas microsoft lets you have a free domain. I do have a feeling taht these options are less effective compared to the ones u pay for.
You can use direct linking if you don't have a website. (putting your hoplink as a destination URL) Or if you want to create a free website, you can use www.blogger.com or www.wordpress.com I am not sure about linking straight to the order page.....Don't know if it works.
bunch, although you may think that a landing page is ridiculous you'll have less success without one especially if you're new to adwords. If you're sending your clicks to a blogger account or some other free hosting you're going to have leakage, and by that I mean you're going to have people who come from adwords and then click at a link you don't want to. I would pay the $10 for a domain name and $7/month for hosting and get your own website with a landing page. It'll make you more money in the long run. That being said however, since you are new to adwords you could experiment with direct linking. If the product is good and the CPC is low you should be able to turn a decent profit. This is getting to be a long post, but I'll tidy up with this. If you want to use adwords and blogger I wouldn't recommend it because there's to much leakage. If you want to direct link than you may or may not find success depending on competition and your product. My recommendation? Start with article marketing or make some squidoo lenses. It'll save you money and can be very profitable.
It will be more painful and expensive to fart around with free hosting than just to (as andrew1056 says) cough up the seventeen bucks to do it the right way. Recommend: it the right way. YOu will be glad you did.
I double that! It really sucks when you spend money on PPC just to find out that the whole time your website was down... and you can't even complain to the "FREE" hosting provider - you get what you pay for.
