I recommend you stay clear of Google PPC as you will probably lose money at this stage. I
know that every marketer on the planet talks about how you can go to Google, put in your
search terms and get targeted traffic looking for exactly what you are selling and make
money hand over fist. This can be true, but more often than not, you will spend more for that
traffic than you make. Over 90% of the users on Google PPC are losing money – don’t join
them unless you have a winning ad AND you feel that you know what you're doing.
Nonetheless, there is a way to harness the power of Google that is both very inexpensive,
extremely effective and most online marketers don’t even know it exists!
It’s called Site Targeted Advertising. Go to Google and type in some of the keywords that
would be used by a making-money online prospect for your product (in this case the
EZ20NOWTurboCharged System... but it will work for anything). In this scenario, type into
Google search, terms like “Make Money Online” and “Make Money From Home” etc. Then
start clicking on the listings you find on the first page of results – both the paid ads on the
right and the organic results in the main part of the page.
You are looking to see if they have Google Adsense ads which will be a block of ads with
links and the words “ads by Google” at the bottom.
I’m going to show you how you can get your ad not only on those same pages that are
getting first page Google results but also how you can “take over” that entire Google block so
that your ad gets shown completely alone...for super cheap!
You can pay an average of less than $5 per 1000 (impressions, or the number of times your
ad gets shown) to get your full-size ads shown of high traffic web pages that are showing up
on the first page of Google results where others are paying $1-3 a click.
Step 1: Use search terms in Google that relate to
EZ20NOWTurboCharged as much as
possible, such as make money from home, make fast money etc.
Step 2: Look at the pages that show on Google’s first page of results and see if they have
Google Adsense ads (not ONLY Google Adsense ads) Those pages that only show Google
Adsense ads are a complete waste of time, you want real web pages with real content AND
have Google Adsense ads on them. Copy the URLs of those pages you find from the first
page search results into a notepad list.
Step 3: Go to Google and create an Adwords account then login to your account. If you
have a gmail account, you can use that user name and password to create your account. On
the right side of your screen, look for Create a New Campaign: and click the
“Placement Targeted” link.
Name your campaign and select your language and countries you want to
advertise in. Most of you will probably use English, USA, UK and Canada, but
you can pick what you feel will work best for your situation.
Create your ad. You can use the classified ads I outlined earlier as a starting
point or just be creative in constructing your own ads. You need to really “WOW”
the visitors to get them to click on your ad and leave the page they are reading.
(You can be flamboyant here – get ‘em to click!).
After you write your ad(s), Google will want you to identify the sites where you
want your ads to appear. You are provided with a tool that helps you find sites
where your ad can appear but you do not want to actually use the sites
recommended by this tool. Not that the tool lacks in any way, but you are
looking to be placed specifically on front-page ranking websites that come up
under your search terms...Google won't just be putting you there because their
nice.
For our purposes, you are going to “go through the steps”, and later you will
return and enter the authentic website URL’s from the list of target sites you put
together earlier. Select the button marked “Describe topics” and enter your main
keyword into the box on the right. Click “Get Available Placements” afterwards.
You will then see a list of sites. Locate the very first listing and click “Add”. You
don’t care what site it is – just add one from their list. Click “Continue” and you
will be taken to the Pricing Page. Select CPM and click “Continue”. (this means
you are going to pay a Fixed Dollar Amount for every 1000 times your ad is
displayed)
You'll then need to set your daily budget – whatever is good for you (meaning
whatever you can honestly afford), say $5-10 a day for example. You will also
need to set the maximum you are willing to pay for every 1000 displays of your
ad – again use $5-10.
Now, save your campaign and then go back to the Campaign Settings page and
click on your Campaign Name and then click on the tab that says “edit Placement
and Bids”.
Highlight and then delete whatever site you inserted earlier and now paste the list of URLs
(websites) in that you gathered when you did your research. You may see that some of the
sites you picked did not get accepted and are still in the lower box. Just delete those and
then Save Campaign.
It usually takes 3-5 days for your ads to start showing but just check back everyday to
monitor your progress and PLEASE don’t forget to have your daily budget set so that you
have no unpleasant surprises.
Alternate Search Engine
There are several search engines other than Google, Yahoo and MSN (the top 3).
Most of the other search engines are considered 2nd tier search engines that do not get
nearly the traffic and many are loaded with Click Fraud problems and should be avoided.
One that is worth a look is 7Search.com. It doesn’t get huge amounts of traffic but it’s “OK”
and many of the “good” search terms can still be bought for less than 10 cents per click.
Go to the site and click on the button for more information for advertisers, then compare or
see bids. Put in search terms like Make Money and it will return all of the related terms, the
average number of searches per month for each and what people are paying for the top
spots. I have a number of search terms that I personally use and they rank in the top 3
positions for less than 10 cents each – definitely check out this site..
One More Search Site
This is a real sleeper. Not huge amounts of traffic but at only $4 a month for a guaranteed
featured listing you really can’t go wrong. I’m referring to ExactSeek.com and you can read
the details on their program here:
http://exactseek.com/featured_listings.htmlOK – That wraps it up and should give you more than enough ammo to get your marketing
campaign going and making money. In addition, don't forget you still have a huge resource of
marketing and promotional tools that can grow your bank account even more!
