Google Adwords - Getting Your Pay Per Click Dollars Rolling In
Many new PPC marketers often find opening a PPC account quite daunting. You should first consider which search engine you are going to go with. The majority of people go for Google AdWords. However you may wish to consider using MSN or Yahoo as an alternative.
Once you have your PPC account open, it is time to decide how much you are going to spend bidding on your Pay Per Click Campaign keywords. A disadvantage of Yahoo is that you will have to credit your account before starting. Google offers more payment flexibility and allows for payment after buyer clicks . The bonus of google AdWords is that you may well be able to recoup your ad expenditure in profits before shelling out for your PPC campaign.
The key thing no matter what pay per click account you have is to check it on a regular basis. You will want to know what you owe and how many clicks you are getting for your money. Testing different ads and keywords is the only way to get "more bang for your buck". Bad ads and expensive keywords will dent your profits.
Are you too busy during the day to go into you PPC account? Do not worry most pay per click accounts will email you automated reports, you then just have to download these in excel to keep track of your ad spend and campaign clicks.
Once you get comfortable with PPC, you will want to open more accounts as more campaigns equals potentially more profits. I would recommend that you open an account at this stage with another search engine to spread your web of campaigns and increase profits.
The advantage of doing this is that you may prefer a different PPC account over your initial choice of account. You may for example prefer the Yahoo dashboard over the Google one, I know I did!
Remember try not to be too intimidated by starting a PPC campaign. There are so many email courses and reviews on the internet that you should read to help you out. You will soon be profiting from your efforts!
