My advice is to not start this if you have limited funds and don't understand how it works very well. This is very much a for profit business for the owners of the search engines and as such they will have a lot of ways to trip you up if you're not savvy to the way it works. So make sure you know what you're doing before you get started. I tried it once when I was a newbie and ended up owing a lot of money I couldn't afford to invest and lost my virtual shirt in the deal.

One of the best ways to get your advertising out is to blog and write articles, or use other people's articles with their permission, which can be very easily obtained by asking. Most people are very flattered if you want to use their articles as long as you give credit where it's due. You can link their keywords to articles you find online and have a lot of rich backlinks. This is way better in my book than Pay Per Click.

You might also consider Pay Per Click email marketing, safelist marketing, and traffic exchange or ad exchange marketing which can also be very low cost and often free.

If you still wish to use pay per click sites like Google Adsense, make sure you have a big enough budget to pay for the highest cost keywords, because there is a very stiff competition for these words and there are some big companies that are able to pay in the thousands for the best ones so you may not be in their league. Most often the little people like us have very little chance of stepping into this form or marketing unless we have a unique set of words that aren't being used much. But like I mentioned earlier, you can always Google the words pay per click and shop around and find sites that maybe don't charge as much if anything. So just try the waters and see how it goes.

Feel free to comment back if there's anything you need or don't understand.

We're all here to help.

PPC can be a wonderful approach to advertising, but you'll have to do your homework well and figure out how best you can promote your business or product.

Advantages:
1) Increased Traffic: Depending on how much you pay, your ad or page can be shown to thousands of people.

2) Stability: Your ads or pages will invariably stay as long as you keep paying and will receive hundreds of clicks.

Disadvantages:
1) It is very expensive: The system can drain you financially.

2) No Guarantee: After all, what is the guarantee that those who click would end up becoming your affiliates? The only guarantee is that your ad or page will receive clicks, but that does not automatically transform into sales.

My conclusion:
Remember quality and not quantity. If you stick to the quality marketing tips being given to us FREELY by SFI, you can make it without PPC. It is better to have a few loyal and active affiliates who you can monitor(DUPLICATION IS THE KEY) than to have many affiliates who will end up backsliding.

The most important thing you should know about this type of advertising is that you have to consider a budget and be careful not to spend over that. You could pay out so much that you would be impoverished if you are not careful and it is risky because some of these may not work. To be honest, I would rather work with advertising co-ops I know are working and put in my funds with others to join what I know works, such as the S-Builder co-op. There are other ones that affiliates have that do work, and I would join them rather than doing PPCs. It's your choice, however, and if this works for you, then I would go for it!

Pay To Click seemed to cost more than I was getting out of it, but that was only my case.
I do have an idea that my work better as you can advertise at what ever level you want.

For example PPC cost me $68.00 in two weeks and my income from that was only $26.00!
There is a place called "State Of The Art Mailer" ( SOTAM) that you can earn credits or
the best way I found there was to pay $79.00 per month to be at the "Viralist level" which allows you to send mail out to 20,000 people every three days, For my first 4
mailings that I sent over 12 days, I had about 2500 people open my mail ads, that is a serious amount of traffic to my sites! Don't get me wrong, PPC does work only if your
listed in page 2 or 3, Your ad can be found only if you type the whole link in the search bar, Now for example if someone is looking for a way to make money from home , they will search a way to work from home and get 10 pages on ads for those " keywords". Guess where your ad is, its probably lost somewhere on page 90,000, Most everyone only clicks on the first couple of pages on their search, most page one listings are there from a ton of hard work and many thousands of dollars a month.
I hope this helps. mike

For a successful Pay Per Click, first you need to find a profitable niche.

Start by researching your market to discover which keywords are getting the most traffic.

Secondly find out the competitions you will have over such keywords. The popularity of a keyword means more traffic and of course more profit. However popularity may also mean high competition which has a direct impact on the bid prices. Find out the top bid prices for such keywords, your profit margin depends on your bid price. Also find out keywords that are being ignored and why. The essence is to find a profitable keyword with a good amount of traffic and a fair bid price

A successful pay per click campaign is based on the following:

1. Focused keyword research
2. Compelling Ads. and
3. Effective landing pages

P.S: For a better understanding of Pay Per Click Advertising, I suggest you read the book "Google Adwords Made Easy" by Brad Callen.

First thing you need to know is that your budget must be geared towards keeping you advertising for weeks and not days for good results. Secondly look at site statistics for instance how many members a site has and daily rate of new members to determine which site to advertise with. Lastly prepare yourself for the risk of losing some bucks because there will be clickers who will not be caught by your bait. All the best.

You need to follow someone who have tried and tested the sites, thus having proof that the sites work, as there are many sites that are a waste of time and money.

I have done a lot of trying and testing, I have been caught out by many sites, but that experience has led me to finding some great ones. Please see http://mjwp.biz/earn-money.php for everything that is working for me.


I recommend signing up for the improved membership (e.g Premium on ClixSense cost $17 or Golden on Neobux costs $90) as this really boosts the income.

Best so far is ProfitClicking, even better if you can invest... every $10 becomes $15 through 'ad packages' or every $20 becomes $60 through 'PC panels'. However once 4 ad packages mature they give you a PC panel, so $40 in equals $120 out. Also, every time you 'ad package' balance hits $10 you should buy another ad package, this is where the true money comes in because you are getting ad packages for free. Also you are only required to sit through 3 ads a day, these can be build up 45 days in advance, I tend to hit 30 ads every Sunday.

Best tip: ensure you hit the required number of ads each day to ensure you receive your downline benefits. Promote your 'links' everywhere you can to get referrals.

So again, please check http://mjwp.biz/earn-money.php for links to sites that work.
