I have just made a new blog , my blog in signature which I am looking to get some attraction. I am thinking of trying google adwords but it sounds way too complicated. Is there any experianced adwords advertisers that can help around with it? I don't have a lot of cash to waste since I might as I have no knowledge with google adwords.
Adwords isn't complicated to use but you need to monitor it very closely so you don't get hit hard with cost. Make sure you've researched your keywords, target the locations and set it to a price that you are comfortable with, whether you chose clicks or impressions. I'd start low to begin with and move up if you need to. I like to start my testing out between $5-$10 per day and as you make sales, and start earning you can up your daily spend. Make sure you have an eye catching ad whether it be image or text.
Educate yourself if you want to do PPC yourself. Learn all you can before putting money on that first campaign. There are some sites and books, on and off-line, that can help. It's not too complicated once you have some knowledge. Even so, it can be time consuming and you may not have the time or willingness to do so. In that case, hire a pro. I'm available and there are others around here and the Internet that can help.
I agree - it's very time consuming (I've been using it for years and it still takes up my days when I'm really into a campaign). However, the more you do it and the more you read up on it, the better you get at it. Here's a couple of easy hints that will give you a starting point: Keyword Research: Adwords, of course, is all about keywords. The trick is to find and use keywords/keyword phrases that have a high search volume but low competition. This can take forever unless you do it this way - first, using the Keyword Tool (not the Traffic Estimator yet), think of 3 or 4 of the broadest keyword/phrases you could use for your niche and enter them in the keyword box [Ex. I have a site that sells PLR. So, I start by by entering the words plr, buy plr, plr ebooks, plr articles]. Only use phrases of one or two words because you want the tool to suggest the longer terms that people use. Then, right below the keyword box , click on Advanced Options & Filters so it opens. Where it says Filter Keywords, click next to the words Local Monthly Searches and change it to Competition. You will see options of Low, Medium, and High open up next to that and check the box marked Low. Then, hit Search. The result will be a bunch of search terms related to those you entered that have low competition. Now you can just play around with it. You can starrt over, taking some of the terms suggested and putting those in the keyword box and doing it all over again. You can also take the words suggested save them or write them down and then enter them in the Traffic Estimator with your max click and daily budget info and get an idea of the type of traffic (clicks) you'll get. However, I would skip this part and just take a good portion of the suggested terms from the Keyword Tool and start creating ads and making manual bids according to page positions. If you keep doing this and checking every few hours to see what works, adding some more keywords from the tool and maybe the traffic estimator, you'll get a feel for the process. Hope this helps a little. Good luck!
Make sure to get $75 free from google for a new account. Open the account. Call google and talk to your personal google adwords consultant... i think they will help you for the first 30 days. Have them build your adwords campains for you. Ask them why they built the campains the way that they did. ask a lot of questions. read a book like "adwords for dummies". Create your own campains and see what your Google rep thinks before launching. (you will learn a lot from this) Use google's keyword tool to determine best keywords. Good way to get high quality "clicks" is to put a [ keyword ]... this is for an exact match. meaning... the google searcher needs to enter your keyword exactly. By doing this you get serioius buyers rather than people surfing. Ur traffic may be a bit lower, but that means you are spending less money and your traffic is quality. If you don't have a through understanding of Adwords never hire a pro. You can go through a lot of money with these guys and if you don't understand Adwords there are so many variables that they can use to spin their poor results. Anyway... good luck!
