Three Strategies For A Successful AdWords Campaign

By Brian Basch

In every corner of the Internet marketers are admiring the wonderful thing called Adwords. They appeal to the lazy, new entrepreneurs, who want to make money doing virtually nothing. They hold out hopes that 100's of dollars can be made daily, with just 3-4 hours of work. Can this really be done? Very possibly, because Adwords has wonderful tutorials at the site, which make using Adwords easy. In fact instead of paying all that money to the "experts," budding entrepreneurs can just learn all they want about Adwords form the site, for free.

Here are 3 ways to make a successful Adwords campaign:

1. Keywords will be your first concern. In reality this will be critical to Adwords campaign success. In fact without good keywords your campaign cannot be productive. A fine mix of targeted keywords to bring in sales, and broad based ones to draw traffic is required.

You will be charged for clicks on your ad no matter how well it performs. This is why choice of keywords is so important. Frequently searched keywords will draw large amounts of traffic. However they will not necessarily produce sales. Marketers who just go into the search engine database and pick out the most frequently searched keywords often misunderstand this fact. They do not understand the fact that if these keywords are not targeted there will be no sales.

For more help on keywords you can go to the Adwords site at www.adwords.google.com Here you will find a wide selection of tools to help you choose the best keywords. In fact these tools are some of the best for pay per click advertising.

2. It is important for you to bid high enough to place you in a top position. Given the fact that most searchers are looking for instant gratification, they will rarely look beyond the first 5-10 pages, of their search results, before trying a second keyword.

This is the reason that it is critical for you to make sure your ad is shown in the first 5-10 pages. This is because search engines do not position ads according to "first come first serve." Instead the ad with the highest bid will get the highest position. You will need to carefully budget ads so that you never run out of money. It is pointless spending money on premier positions and not having enough money to sustain your ad position. Search engines protect their customers from incurring losses by allowing caps to be put on ads. Of course if you go beyond this cap your ad will be pulled.

3. It is very important to follow up with your campaign. There is risk involved with every ad and nobody knows its worth until it has been proven on the open market. It is imperative that advertisers pay attention to every detail of their campaign, so that they can make quick changes to avert disaster further down the road.

So now you know what it takes to make a successful Adwords campaign. what is more all this information is free and you do not have to pay $54.99 for literature that may not even help you.
