    Hi,

    I'm a little new in the PPC area, and have a question that's been in my head for some time.

    What do you think:

    Can a person become a professional PPC advertiser by chatting on forums, going through blogs and reading through all those articles on the net?

    Can one gain enough knowledge using the above resources to get to the point where he/she will know as much as a PPC expert.

    And is their an actual place where you can go and study to become a professional PPC or SEO expert.

    Hi!
    Not really. There's a lot more to it..the internals. A billing system..a affiliate management system..a user management system..all these have to be either bough or made. Also..there's the need to servers and custom programming to get the ads to appear in rotation on people's sites.

    I'm not saying it could not be done. It could..and I firmly believe there is plenty of room for small players. Expensive..and very time consuming.

    By PPC expert I mean to gain enough knowledge as the people who work for ppc marketing companies.

    I don't mean to open up a PPC company and provide service,

    Just looking for the best way to learn PPC advertising to the point where I can do all ppc marketing myself instead of relying on outside help.

    What is the best way to go about this? Whats the best way to become a so called PPC expert

    Being a pro just means you get paid for it, whether you're any good or not. I suppose being successful is pretty much the requirement for being an expert.
