New Adward Customer ! It Sucks For me

Discussion in 'Google AdWords' started by piratesbi, Aug 21, 2009.

    I recently opted for Adward. I use Adsense free $100 offer. I just activate my account with $10 & now my balance is $93.5.

    But I got 33 clicks on my ads.But no one view my site carefully. I use bluesense theme blended Adsense ad on my site. But No Adward clickers, not click on my site ads.

    I am worried.If I don't get any conversion,then why I pay for it? :mad:

    My site is in my signature.

    When you sign up for Adwords, be prepaired to loose money...maybe not that much.

    Try looking into using long tail keywords. Also, maybe try to add content from your website into your display ads.

    Good luck, you have a long road ahead of you. :)

    Google adwords gets people to your site - whether they like what they see when they get there is your responsibilty.
    And using adwords for arbitrage is against google policy anyway.

    It could also be possible that they were fake clicks, maybe some newbie trying to make more money by clicking the same ad again and again (which was your's)

    So you can keep a thought that you've lost your money, or you can maybe get it back when the adsense team reviews that users account and finds fake clicks. And when they reduce his amount, you'll be refunded.

    IMO - read up on PPC more before you continue to run campaigns!

    But for anyone to be able to help we'll need more information about your campaign(s)

    You just said it's the free $100 offer, so what are you complaining about. If your ads are that popular then it's your site that needs working on

    If you're brand new to AdWords and make very broad campaigns you will see poor results and your money disappear. You need to start with very tight phrase and exact matches so that people who click are more likely to stay on your page.

    It is very possible your page's conversion rate is very low. Adwords is great tool, but I am still having problems figuring it out. In most cases my advertising with Adwords cost me a lot more than I earn.

    People who managed to "crack" Adwords say that it's their biggest business discovery.

    Soory to hear how you got scammed by adwords! I don't think its any where near worth the money that you spend. You are way better off spending the same amount of money getting high quality links and invest your time writing original content for your site so that you rank on the first page organically, than taking the fast track by paying for it.

    Google must be making a fortune off of all of us that want the quick first page fix!

    It takes some time. You have to hang in there and be prepared to lose some money. Also, it's worth looking for a little free training. Do a quick search for Google PPC or Google Adwords Free Training and read up on it. I've found it's a learning process, but you definitely CAN make money.

    Just a friendly tip. Your site colors make everything blend in. If people don't know what you want them to look at right away, then the often leave in the first 5 seconds.

    You can block both what sites your ad appears on in adwords, and block the ads you don't want on your site in adsense.

    Look, adwords takes a while to get the hang of - use your FREE $100 to do some research and also read more info on the forums...

    The best way to run your adwords is starting REALLY small with super low bids and working your way up until you find traffic.

    i just started a campaign with bids at 0.05 cents and have gotten about 100 click and a $10 sale on my site for such little money.

    just run your adwords SLOWLY

    If you are using adwords to make money on adsense, then it is going to be really tricky. You should use multiple sources of traffic to make money with adsense. Using adwords, you will not make much or just lose a bunch of money.
