    Hi,
    is it possible to make a profit with $10 in Adwords if I'm doing everything correct? What is the risk?

    Thank you

    cheers,

    If you're a beginner then 99% sure you won't make a profit with just $10 to start with - you'll probably just lose the entire $10. You need to come back to Adwords with a larger budget so you can properly test and find the best keywords for you

    I don't know if you're talking a total of $10 or $10 per day. If it's the maximum you want to spend, I don't believe spending only $10 is a fair test. Even paying only 20 cents per click would give you 50 clicks. Since conversions seem to be in the low single digits for most people, I don't think you could make assumptions on success/failure on just 50 clicks. Even if you did everything correctly.

    The risk? There's risk in everything. You can't steal second by keeping your foot on first base. You could spend $10 and not make a sale thereby losing $10. Then again, you could make one or two sales. I suggest you take a longer lead off first if you want to get to second.

    if you have $10 to spend - your most likely not going to turn a profit. To profit from an adwords campaign you normally need to spend a little to test first before you see profit
