PPC advertising can be intimidating and confusing for people just starting out. By using this simple AdWords Google Guide, you’ll have the tips and tricks to make sure that you’re starting out in the right direction. Make sure to pay attention – a poorly managed AdWords campaign can end up costing you a lot of money – and fast. You could blow your startup budget in a week, and your foray into making money online could be over before you even really got started.

The first tip in our AdWords Google Guide is to make sure you know what you want before you start. This means having clearly defined goals and aims. What do you want to get out of this campaign? Do you want to get sales, or do you just want to build an email list? If you know what you want before you start your campaign, you’ll have an easier time focusing and staying on track.

The second tip in our AdWords Google Guide is to choose your keywords carefully. Your keywords are what will get your ads in front of your target audience. Choose the wrong keywords, and you’ll be advertising to the wrong audience, and you won’t get the response that you are looking for (and you know exactly what that is because of your extremely well-defined goals.)

There are many different factors which define whether a keyword it right for you or not; you have to take into consideration the volume of searches and the advertising competition on any given keyword, which will then affect the starting price. You also need to make sure that they keywords you choose have something to do with your product or service – when people use search engines, they are looking for information on something specific, and one of the best tips I can give you in this AdWords Google Guide is to make sure that you are relevant to that.

Which leads us into our next AdWords Google Guide tip – make sure that whatever offer you used in your AdWords ad is prominently displayed on your landing page when the prospect clicks through. The number one cause of abandonment in PPC marketing is because the user didn’t think that the site followed through on what was promised in the ad.

Google Adwords is an amazing tool to help you make money in PPC marketing, and I hope that this Adwords Google Guide has been useful. If you want to get serious about PPC marketing and AdWords, Click HERE Now to claim your $1 FULL ACCESS to PPCKahuna Now!

Profitable Tips to Help With AdWords – A Google Guide

Sir Tweet O' Lot is perching on some profitable trees. Also if you would like to have a skills competition, click on the bird and let us know.

It has taken me longer to get to post here since last. That was on April 15th, Tax Day. First I’ve to thank everyone that has stopped by here over the last year. I’m not getting wildly rich from this blog, but the support here does help make ends make. I really appreciate each and every one of you.

There has been a lot going on online and off. I’ve had a lot of contact in e-mails, social networks and phone conversations with a few readers. It’s been a great experience and I hope that folks were about to walk away with some new ideas from  the exchange.

The Overlooked Tree

Everyone goes looking for the richest forest. The biggest misconception is that you have to reach all the over the map to achieve that. We tend to overlook how valuable the wood is from trees in our own backyard. I was looking over a budget for friend during this past weekend when I noticed something that caught my eye. Take a quick look at these keywords and bids:

california auto insurance quotes $57.34
auto insurance quotes california $57.01
arizona divorce attorneys $53.56
dui attorney los angeles $52.75
personal injury attorneys chicago $51.59
houston criminal lawyer $49.59
criminal houston lawyer $49.59
san diego criminal lawyer $48.30
chicago personal injury lawyers $46.81
dui attorney san diego $46.04
chicago injury lawyers $45.22
maine white water rafting $45.18

Have you noticed the common denominator in this list? There is a city or geo-location in each keyword. This list knocked home a point I try to make when someone is looking for a market that can help them be profitable online – THINK LOCAL, REACH GLOBAL.

Plant an Acorn and Grow a Strong Oak

OK so you don’t live in one of those cities and you are thinking this list won’t help you. You are missing the big picture. More professionals with a local service area is using Google Adword to market on the Internet today. They could care less about landing a client on the other end of the country, it would cost them more than they would take in. They want clients in their backyard. They are competitive with the advertising budgets because have get the customers in their area before their competitor does. They are targeting their local market and you should be too.

A hyper-local blog or website, augmented with Twitter and Social Networks as traffic feeder can become profitable faster than a blog about blogging, Work at Home, car buying or dieting. People are more interested about restaurants, movies, festivals, public service, professionals and etc close to home. They going to be looking online until they find a good local information source.

Hyper-local is a hot market and chances are you aren’t going to have too many others swimming in the same pond. If you do find interest that they aren’t devoting as much coverage on.

Using The Lunch Money Challenge In Your Neighborhood

This week we will start looking at ways to use social media to make lunch money. To participate in this exercise doesn’t require any investment at all, it will be sticking to the No Start-Up Cost theme that everyone enjoys.

There is one low cost purchase I would suggest that would help you – an Internet domain name. This usually less than $10 at most registers. Don’t purchase one just yet until

Here is a list of the things you will want to gather:

• Google Adsense account – The user name will be used to access other Google services
• Pepperjam account – This affiliate network has some great advertisers and tools to help you monetize your website
• Facebook membership. Myspace is also OK, but it doesn’t have the reach of Facebook
• Memberships to social bookmarking sites like – Reddt, Propeller, del.icio.us, Digg and Mixx
• Yahoo account – for Flickr and Site Explorer
• Free classified, weekly and alternative newspapers from YOUR city

All the Internet services are free, so there is no excuse not give this exercise a try.

A Contest

If there is enough interest in participating in the Hyper-Local exercise I might be able to find a few sponsors that would step up for some prizes. Are you up for the challenge? If so then click on Sir Tweet O’ Lot (or just his name) at the top of this article to send a tweet my way or leave a comment below saying you are interested.

Are You Overlooking Profitable Trees Trying to Find a Forest of Riches?

Sir Tweet O' Lot says to click on his sign and tell everyone about Tweetforbucks on Facebook

There is one place on the Internet that has strong numbers these days with a user base of over 175,000,000 users still has no sign of letting up. That would be Facebook. While I have had a group page for Tweet For Bucks on Facebook, the presence did not work to help reader connect, share ideas and have an open dialog. Over the past few weeks I’ve had a little time to spend on moving things to the fan page of Facebook.

This relaunch on Facebook is also in tandum with the new Facebook design change that came this week. It wasn’t planned that way, just one of those cosmic things. Also a fresh template was brought on to this blog. I think this new layout will be easier to read and navigate. There will be a couple more screws to tighten on the layout before I’ll be completely happy, but Rome wasn’t built in a day.

This Can Only Mean One Thing…

All of these improvements are to get us ready to go back and add some more money making ideas to The Lunch Money Challenge. If you aren’t fimilar with exercise, The Lunch Money Challenge is a workshop telling how you can make money online with having to spend and money to start-up or to keep it going. There is no sign-up, no fees and no sells pitches – just ideas how you can turn your Social Media collateral into a revenue stream that can supplement your regular income that you can spend on things you have had to cut out of your life with the current recession.

I’m not asking anyone to buy anything for the TLMC, but I would ask that you consider some of the advertisers on this site. They help keep this website alive. The good and services offered that can help you earn more  money, make your life simpler and enjoy your free time.

So get on your social networks of choice, make more friends, build stronger relationships with your friends and always to ready to the next person out.
