    I would really appreciate help. I have a PR4 website with a good domain name and title. Can't seem to get any traffic. Don't know what to do. The adwords campaign on the first day had .1% click thru rate. The second day all of the keywords prices jumped from .20 to 1-5 dollars. Not sure why.
    And the third day i created 5 different campaigns with all kinds of long threads like "selling ebooks on ebay" "how to make money off ebay", etc. And ALL of the keyword threads were 1-5 dollars again!
    Don't know why the prices are so high?
    So any help on Adwords or advice on how else to get traffic to my site???
    Thanks so much. It's the second site in my sig below.

    I think your PR4 just dropped... I cannot see any PR for your site in my Google Toolbar.

    Read similar blogs and post comments w/ link.
    Post answers on Yahoo answers
    Article submissions
    SEO
    Social network (digg, stumble, etc.)
    If you are selling a product, clickbank
    Create a rating system that rates "make money with ebay" ebooks and give other ebay ebook sites "awards" that link to your site.

    I would not suggest you to go for yahoo answers as it is a complete waste of time.
    Spend your time fruitfully in frequently updating your site, actively take part in dp forum (remember to leave your signature link), submit to free directories, article directories and do the on page optimization perfectly. Never expect a drastic increase in traffic suddenly and never purchase traffic as it is worthless. Try to get more organic traffic by improving your visibility in the face of major search engines. It requires a lot of hard work :D

    Writing and submitting articles and posting in forums will get you immediate traffic.

    Start building a mailing list. Once you have your mailing list, it's traffic on demand - every time you send a mailing, you get people visiting your site!

    Register with forums related to your topic.
    Start a meaningful discussion.

    You can google your "topic" forum.
    Will get a lot of forums.

    ezinearticles is a great place to summit articles, but you need to summit more than one to see big results.

    The huge rise in your keywords prices is because of Google Adwords Score. Your landing page needs to have a title same as the keywords you have bidded. Also, you must have a good landing page (based on Google's evaluation:p)

    Adwords uses a quality score to determine your min bids.

    Part of the quality score is your click through ratio. Since yours is so low, that may be a primary reason why your CPC is now so high.

    Try writing better and more relevant ads to increase your click through ratio.

    Google provides complete, free Adwords training. Just search for "Adwords Learning Center" on Google. It's the first result.
