    Hi,
    At the moment I have realmedia.com managing my PPC across Google, Overture, Espotting and Mirago. I was wondering if anyone could recommend other companies which will manage my PPCs?

    Mocara.

    What are you loking for the company to do? Manage bids? Keep you in budget? Track ROI?

    www.bidrank.com has some good software to keep your bids from getting out of control. I'm not sure if I'd want a company handling the major aspects of it and charging your for it. PPC profits beign so tight as they are.

    Thanks for that. Bidrank don't appear to handle google though.
    As for what I want. I want to be able to set a limit for say 6,000 dollars a month and then have my spend managed to make the most of my money accross the various ad networks.

    Hello,

    I haven't tried yet, but TradeDoubler has a system to track and manage PPC campaigns; but I don't know much information about it.

    I will try to find out more.

    Watch out!! Most of those companies bill based on your total spend and not the total profit you get from advertising. I'm not willing to trust someone else who may not be as interested or dedicated.

    I have an Internet Marketing Assistant I've trained to handle a number of Internet marketing activities for my clients including PPC campaignes. (That way I don't have to do all that work!)

    This would probably be less expensive than hring a consulting firm with big fees.

    Her work is excellent and her rate is $30 per hour. If anyone is interested, pop me a note and I'll connect you with her.

    U should seek some economical google adwords professionals. I heard that there are people who offer their services at US$50 per week and that too, u need to pay AFTER your work is done for that week. It means, without any upfront, u can hire such serious google adwords experts.

    More details u can get from google itself from following google search results

    Do you guarantee a profit? If not, anyone can take that money and do PPC management for anyone else. The point is making profit.

    I still don't understand why you would need someone else to manage your PPC Campaign, my 13 year old son could do it by himself and paying companies $100/month is just a waste!

    I've heard the 'my son or daughter could it' lots. I've seen people try as well. I say get them to do it then and watch your business fail. I am sure you are going to get a 13 year old's attention span to create and manage an effective campaign 24/7.

    I use a team of different people - one woman I know comes from a totally different background - but can rev any campaign by finding the most obscure but high producing campaigns at low cost. Conversions and management are key - she is up all night managing and culling. I can put you in touch with her if you want.

    I agree.

    PPC Management is easy. The intuitive interface makes it so.

    But there are several issues here that need attention.

    1. Does your 13 year old son understand your business and your customers?
    2. Subsequently, does he have the right tone in his ads for a professional sounding campaign.
    3. Does your 13 year old son know the value of money, and the value of saving every cent if you safely can?

    PPC Management is easy. But it takes time to learn and perfect. It take a lot of attention-to-detail to decide the perfect bid, and requires constant monitoring for better position vis a vie cost and vice versa.

    One week, perhaps, of not monitoring your campaign because you were busy servicing a sudden influx of clients,could drain your adspend of maybe half of the extra dollars you earned from your new clients.

    So... to the question, can I assure profit. I say this. I can assure visibility, quality visitors, and a comprehensive coverage of every possible potential client vis a vie his search term.

    Beyond that, it all depends on the look and feel of your website, your response time to queries (in the case of sites that garner sales leads) and the quality of your customer support.

    Besides these factors, you also have to perhaps, in the light of all the new traffic, reconsider price, which is a policy decision, like many others you may have to make, which I, obviously, cannot help you with.

    I will, ofcourse, as a part of my fee, provide free advice, based on my experience, on what you can do to improve conversions through improving website content and design quality.

    All this for $99 + 10% of monthly adspend.

    Still think you'd be wasting your money?

    Let me know.

    Samar
