Hello Myipodpsp, Thank you for your email. To clarify, other than the $5 activation fee, the budget you set with Google AdWords is completely up to you. Our system will work with any budget you feel comfortable with (as little as $1) to get your ads as many clicks as possible without ever exceeding that daily or monthly budget. Other than that one-time $5 activation fee, the only costs you will accrue with our program is for the clicks you receive, and you would be able to set maximum cost-per-clicks (CPC) for your keywords, the most amount you are willing to pay when someone clicks on your ad. This will help determine your ad's position on Google. Also, there is no minimum time commitment or spend requirement to use our program, and since there is no contract, you are free to make changes to your campaigns and budgets at any time, and can also pause your advertising whenever you like. The best way to estimate costs is to use the AdWords Traffic Estimator, a tool designed to help you maximize the return on investment for your ad campaigns. This tool calculates the average number of clicks per day, the average CPC, and the average position of your ad for each of your keywords. These estimates are based on the keywords you select and the location and language that you target for your ad campaign. To use the Traffic Estimator: 1. Visit https://adwords.google.com. 2. Click into the section 'Costs and Payments,' listed under 'Learn about AdWords.' 3. Click on the link 'Estimate keyword costs' 4. Enter one keyword or phrase per line under 'Descriptive words or phrases.' 5. Click 'Get Keyword Ideas.' 6. Under 'Calculate Estimates using Max CPC.' enter a cost-per-click bid to see your estimated ad position. 7. When complete, click 'Recalculate.' Please let me know if you have any additional questions. If you have additional questions, please visit our Help Center at https://adwords.google.com/support, where you'll find answers to many frequently asked questions. We look forward to providing you with the most effective advertising available. Sincerely, Neidhi Kumaar The Google AdWords Team *************************************************** My question is asking for advertising credit! not how to use the campaign! here is my question to Adword: Hi Google, I would like to advertise on Adword, and since I heard many people says that adword is expensive and not as easy to use as MSN adcenter, since I run most of my campaign there, what i'm refer "not as easy" is you guys cost advertiser too much money compares to the convertion rate. And that's why I'm little hesitate to start with you guys, since I only have affiliate link and direct link method, not sure if I should design my own custom landing page. But that's after if I want to advertise with you guys. If it can bring me profit compares to the cost, I'm looking to spend money for long term range from $4,500 to $15,000. But I don't want to spend my capitals just to try and "play around with it", that's wasting my time, and i'm already doing good at MSN adCenter. I know there's a lot of adword credits has been offer, but I just think it would be better to talk to you guys first to see what you can offer inorder for me to become your long term customer, not just spend my hard-earn money and close my campaign and leave forever. I know a lot of markets do that, they fail and never use Adword again. But I would like to take the risk to try out and see if it'll work, if you have a good offer then I'll take it, and maybe looking switching business to you from MSN adCenter. Thanks for your review. **************************** I want to know is it still safe to use adword right now? If I don't use landing page, and just use the keywords that I'm already do well on MSN, would that also works?
