What Countries are the best for PPC?

Discussion in 'Google AdWords' started by buddhalabs, Dec 22, 2008.

    I have a health related affiliate site that does a review and sells some ebooks. I am currently advertising in the US and Canada through Google PPC. Can others share their experience in which countries work best for PPC advertising? What about specifically for buying health related ebooks? I've decided to target english speaking countries such as India and Philippines. Is this a mistake? Will this be money spent without a return?

    Do you have any other suggestions for countries where I won't be wasting my money on advertising that doesn't provide a good ROI?

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    I have to agree with butlerpatches.

    Usually I start with US only to test how the product sells. Then gradually expand to CA, UK, AU. Sometimes NZ (depending on the market).

    The secret here is "tracking". You need to know your profit/loss by advertising in each of these countries. Also run regualr reports in AdWords and keep you eye on the ball.

    I don't recommend advertsing to Asian countries. If it's through Clickbank a lot of them request a refund, essentially getting the product for free. This is a profit destroyer!

    All the best,

    Definitely target the US & Canada first... If there isn't a market in those 2 countries for your "health" ebook then I doubt it there will be in other countries... There's a health craze in those 2 countries and that would be the perfect place to monetize your health related product... Good luck!
