One of the first considerations with traffic to any site is whether or not to buy it or go for free (organic search) sources. But Pay per Click, or PPC advertising, is all we'll be discussing here, today. PPC has attracted millions of marketers over the years with the lure of instant traffic that is highly targeted. It's easy and simple, you pay the cost per click when somebody clicks on your ppc ad.
But you must make sure the rest of your marketing converts that traffic. However, PPC is not as simple as it sounds. The competition is fierce, so that's one reason there's so much involved with it. There are many advertisers who are making a killing with PPC by advertising their products/services to get leads and sales. Of course there are risks, and of course you can lose a lot of money if you're not careful. Before you reap the rewards, you must learn how to do it, then when you're creating your campaigns you need to do your research. We'll be sharing some PPC strategies and tips to help get you on your way.
When you write your PPC ads, be as honest as possible. Some internet marketers are tempted to write misleading ads simply to get more click throughs, but this is a mistake. Promising something something in your ad that does not really exist is a bad strategy. Doing this will only hurt your sales, as people will click through your ad expecting to get what they saw on the ad and realize that they have been misled. This tactic may get you lots of clicks, but they won't produce many sales. Your visitors will be angry and disappointed and you can't expect them to buy anything from you. If you want to do well with PPC, you must track your ads and know which ones are profitable. If you don't watch and analyze your campaigns, you won't be able to tell which ones are performing well and which aren't, and you will end up losing money. If you keep track of what's going on, however, you can focus on the profitable campaigns and quit the losing ones.
This may seem very obvious, but many people put their ads on automatic pilot and forget to carefully track them until they realize they've lost a big chunk of money. For best results you should log in to your pay per click account at least once per day and see what's going on. You must, at minimum, check them a few times every week.
You should also make sure that your ad copy and keywords are a match, or you won't get a high quality score for your ad. Similarly, the landing pages that visitors click through to should relate well to the ad and keywords. This will please your visitors as well as helping your quality score, so it should help you make more sales too. There are real risks involved with PPC advertising. So be sure to get educated first, then follow the advice of experts and proceed with caution - and common sense.
