Learn The Real Advantages Of Advertising With Google AdWords

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

Google AdWords is by far the most perfect traffic generation system on the web right now. Google Adwords can help your online business grow, so keep reading to find out how.

A very prominent benefit of using Google AdWords for advertising your product is that you’d be able to target your ads in the best possible manner. When you have the freedom to target your ads towards the right group of people, you’ll get a much higher response and better conversions. You can go ahead and geographically target your ads so that you can let your ad reach out to almost any location you want. Your ads can be made to go to a country, or even a city. Adwords even has a thing called “time targeting” which means you can have your ads show up only at certain times. You are thus given a bunch of control over the campaign timing of your advertisements. When your ads are targeted specifically, you have a better chance of getting targeted traffic. So make use of this feature because the more targeted your ad campaigns are, the higher will be your response. The online world is massive, with more people using the internet than ever before, which means you need to target your ads so that they reach just the right types of people. One of the other benefits you experience with Adwords is that you can alter your daily budgets, and thus you won’t find yourself limited. Your budget is completely controllable so that you can handle your traffic requirements and you will be able to specify how much your clicks cost. If you were to set $150.00 per day, then once that amount is clicked, you will find you ads vanish from the searches until the next day. Many newbies don’t get how this works and so they don’t use this option and that’s when they find themselves broke before they can change it. Your money is being put into it, so you have to be careful how you spend it. On the other hand, putting limits on your daily spending can cause your money to stretch for a longer period of time.

When using Adwords, you are able to do so much with your advertising campaign, the sky truly is the limit. Your Adwords ads can even be altered once they’re on the internet. You are free to make your ads how you want them to be, and at any time. Not only that, but if you discover that something needs to be changed, you can either stop the ad or halt it temporarily.

In conclusion, you can get so many perks from Google Adwords as long as you know what you’re doing. Using Backlink Battleplan is recommended.

Powerful Pay Per Click Tatic

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Can you guess what the tactic is?

Okay, I’ll tell you. A very powerful tactic, that you need to be using right now with your pay per click campaigns, is to Bid High.

So what you might be saying? Heard it before?

Thing is, it is SO effective when used properly that it almost can’t be denied. On the flip side, when used incorrectly, its like throwing your money down a bottomless pit.

So how do i do it right, you might be asking? Glad you asked. It depends upon which pay per click search engine of choice you are using. Lets stay with the big two, Google Adwords and Yahoo! Search.

With Google Adwords you must combine a high bid price with a well written and compelling ad. Google rewards relevant ads with a lower price per click. So, therefore, you might start out paying a high price per click, yet if your ad is specific and cleverly written, which should get you frequent clicks, this cost per click will decrease dramatically. The key here is patience, and to not panic if you are spending a lot in the first few days, along with testing and refining. Once you are receiving a great click through rate, the initial price you was paying per click should be slashed. Naturally, you must calculate whether your sales conversion rate makes this economic even with the dramatically lowered pay per click price. But more often than not, assuming your sales letter is good, this will be the case.

So what makes a good pay per click ad, you might be wondering?

Relevancy and something that grabs the attention of the visitor. If your product is about office desks, make very sure the ad mentions office desks in the title and body of the ad! Also you need a ‘hook’ within the ad, which attracts the interest or curiosity of the searcher. For instance, ‘Read the Real Truth on Office Desks’.

Using this method, high price plus great ad, should give you a high ranking in the search engine pay per click listing for keyword phrases you have chosen.Thereby, giving you an important online search presence for your product, whether you own, or as an affiliate, for a reasonable and profitable cost.

Again, remember you will need to test sales conversion to discover whether the campaign is profitable or not. Because, no matter how fine the click through rate is, and how far it lowers your cost per click price, if sales are converting badly, it won’t be profitable.

Okay, so that is Google Adwords. So what about Yahoo! Search?

Well, it works somewhat differently. There the highest bidder always ranks top.

So the trick there is to slowly increase your bid, until other bidders on the same keyword phrases feel the heat and give up. Or, alternatively, put in a wildly high bid and scare off the competition, who can’t or won’t match you. They will back off, and you will pay only a penny more than the next highest bidder is prepared to go.

The higher you are ranked, the more sales generally you will get. Look at it this way. Would you prefer to pay ten cents a click and get one sale a month, or fifty cents a click and make thirty sales? With Yahoo! Search the conversion ratio is even more important, since you generally pay more per click to attain the highest rankings.

So, are you ready to dominate the Pay Per Click Wars?

$1 Million in Google AdSense Earnings

Saturday, September 19th, 2009

They are calling him the million dollar man. Jason Calacanis recently revealed in his blog that he is on track to earn a million dollars from AdSense over the year ahead.

And if that number doesn’t wake you up and have you sitting on the edge of your seat, consider for a moment that he reached this level in less than a year. His company only started using AdSense in September 2004.

Calacanis runs Weblogs Inc., a network dedicated to creating trade weblogs across niche industries. And he’s quickly proven that AdSense is a credible advertising partner.

As their network has grown, so has their AdSense revenue. In January 2005 they earned an average of $580 per day. In March it was $737. In May it was $1,585. One day in July, just before he made the blog entry referred to above, they earned $2,335. Remember that is just for one day.  If they can take that daily average to $2,740 they’ll be earning a rate of $1 million for a year. And Calacanis predicts that reaching daily earnings of $3,000 or even $5,000 is quite achievable.

That’s quite an achievement. Keep in mind that Calacanis has 103 bloggers on the payroll and nine staffers. Even so, many webmasters would give an arm or a leg to have even a third of that.

Google’s AdSense has been revolutionary. It has become firmly established as the darling of the online advertising industry. Although rumors are heard of major competitors launching a similar service, AdSense’s premier position seems secure for now.

In essence, AdSense has made it possible for almost anyone with a web site or blog to earn some revenue from advertising, without having to employ sales people or spend precious time searching for advertisers. 

AdSense works like this. Webmasters sign up for an account in just a few minutes. They receive a small snippet of code to include on their web pages. Google will then automatically serve advertisements that are relevant to the content on the webmaster’s pages. When someone visits the webmaster’s site and clicks on one of Google’s AdSense advertisements, the webmaster earns a fee. Advertisers can pay anywhere from five cents to a hundred dollars per click, and the webmaster receives a percentage of that fee.

Many webmasters are content with earning five to ten dollars from AdSense to cover the cost of web hosting. But many, unsurprising, have higher ambitions. At a popular WebmasterWorld forum, participants share tips and encouragement on reaching a goal of $300 per day from AdSense. So it is no wonder that Calacanis created quite a buzz when he made his million dollar blog entry.

Google have proven once again that they excel at designing innovative Internet services. If you are in the web industry and have not yet used AdSense, then perhaps you should try it out. Or if you are already using it, perhaps Calacanis’ impressive results will encourage you to track the performance of your AdSense units more closely, fine tune their positions and formats, and take your earnings to a new level.

Google Adwords for Business

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

OK 3 steps to get your Google Adwords setup and ready to start
advertising, creating an account, writing your first ad and
submitting your billing information.

The first thing you need to do is sign up and get yourself a
google adwords account. To do that head over to the Google and
at the bottom of the screen click on the ‘Advertising
Programmes’ link at the bottom.

Then:

• Click into the Adwords homepage

• Click ‘try now’ at the top right of the screen

• Select the standard edition (you need to have an active
website for the standard edition, if you don’t have an active
website you are not really at the stage to start experimenting
with Adwords!)

• On the next screen it will ask you if you have a Google
account, you could have one for gmail, Google Adsense, Google
Analytics etc, all of them will give you a Google account which
you can enter at this step. If you reallyclick the button that
says you don’t have an account and it will ask for some details
to make one for you.

• If you have used an existing Google account you can then sign
in to your brand spanking new Google Adwords account, if you
have created a new account then you need to click the
verification link in the email they don’t have one or want a
fresh account associated with Adwords (it is a lot easier just
to have one account just trust me!) then have just sent you to
confirm you are the owner of that email address, then you can
sign in.

Ok now create a test campaign so you can get going. When you
log in click on the ‘create my first campaign’ button and you
will be taken through the campaign setup process.

Just enter any information in, put in any name, choose any
country, put in a fake ad (just fake not silly as if that makes
it to an editor you’ll be in their bad books!) and choose your
keyword as ‘123456789’ or similar so it will not actually show.

Once you have finished setting up your campaign it will show you
a summary screen where you can check everything is ok – then
click ‘continue to billing’ There you enter your billing
information, select your timezone and agree to the terms and
conditions, if you select direct debit payment you will have to
wait while that goes through the system, but the other options
mean that you can start your campaign right now.

Personally I use a credit card payment at the end of the month
for my Adwords account,but you also have the choice to do
prepay where you deposit money into your account for Adwords to
use, this will reduce any risks on your behalf as if you were to
accidentally leave an ad running that built up a huge bill then
with the credit card option you’d have to pay, if you used
prepay then the ad would just stop running after the money in
your account ran out.

Please remember that there is a 5 - $10 setup charge for your
account that they will charge you after setup.

The choice is yours, but just make sure after you setup your
billing that you go to the ‘campaign summary’ page listed at the
top of the screen and tick the checkbox next to your dummy
campaign and delete it! Otherwise you may get charged for the
advert showing up!

Now is the time to take action and get your Adwords campaign started with our
new home study course on three dvd’s show you how to
set up each stage step by step so you can do well with Google
Adwords.
