anwiii 17 Report post Posted May 18, 2011 if you wrote this post 5 years ago, then yes, it would be worth a try. right now though adwords has a lot of competition. you also need to learn how to create and manage caompaigns. so i would say "no" to the beginniner. i mean, you would have to create keyword lists and all that.don't get me wrong, you can drive a lot of traffic using adwords, but you would have to know how to write your ads for buyers and not people who are just looking around since each click costs money.i am not really going to go in to how adwords work, but i would say beyond a shadow of a doubt that it isn't for you, faten. not right now. you would most likely just waste your money which is very easy to do with adwords. if you are curious about it, you could search for some free adwords credits that float around if you know where to look, and set up your account to stop advertising after your credit has reached it's limit. do you have a credit card? beause i don't believe adwords will let you sign up without one.

rpgsearcherz 5 Report post Posted October 24, 2011 The success of Adsense really depends on how well it's implemented though. You get almost nothing if people aren't clicking, and most people ignore ads, so they have to be implemented with your site well enough to gain their attention and warrant clicks. This is an issue I've been having lately, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
odlanor9 0 Report post Posted February 13, 2012 I would say try to maximize the gift card as much as you can. Google adwords can be very good if you have tested your marketing funnel. If your site can convert profitably then I would go from a PPC model to a CPM model where your profits will get even better. Adwords is not the place to start testing your funnel for optimization as clicks can now be very expensive depending on the market you are in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
