It seems wherever you turn you will see ads. They proudly claim that people can make huge profits from using Adwords to sell their products and what is more they only have to work 2-3 hours a day! The ads proclaim that this is easy to do and what is more anyone, including you can do it.
What they fail to tell you is the fact that working just 2-3 hours a day is not the norm. In fact few people can perfect this type of regime. There are just too many things to take care of, especially if you are new to the game. In fact no other promotion requires as much micro-management as an Adwords campaign.
Bear in mind a few points. Your initial keywords will be found by using Google's database of frequently searched keywords. Then you will compile a second list of keywords that you think are relevant to your business. Then you will compare the 2 lists.
When you have all your keywords put together you will then start to bid on them. Now do not just write an email to Google offering them a certain amount of money in return for using specific keywords in your advertising campaign. This would be an unreal thing to do. Google has a far better system of bidding than this. Google positions ads and obviously the ads at the top will have the greatest exposure. These ads will be the moneymakers for Google, and you.
Remember that Adwords is strictly a pay per click advertising system. You will pay them for every click you receive for your ad; this does not take into consideration the amount of sales you make. Google makes better profits when there are a lot of clicks for an ad. The highest bidder will gain the most exposure.
After you have finished the bidding procedure and you ad is functioning, pay special attention to your keywords. Remember that keyword popularity can come and go. What is popular today may not be popular a month or so from now. Keywords that are unpopular will not bring in the traffic and sales.
You may not become a millionaire by working on your Google Adwords campaign for just few hours per day. However you will become an expert at multi tasking and micromanaging your campaign. As you learn more you will very likely find that Adwords will indeed bring in profits for your business.
So take advantage of all the great tutorials and tools that Google Adwords provides and you will soon become an expert in micromanagement. Once you do this you will be able to spend less time on your campaigns and more time on making a success of your business. - 15275
