Whatever you read in the books, see in the videos or hear on the audios realize this... making money with Adwords/Adsense is work. It's direct response advertising work. The second you start thinking it's "easy money" there will be some pain coming. |
Thanks Brad, but how did you learn? Any particular courses/ebooks you recommend?

For me it's pleasurable work, copywriting has been a hobby of mine since 1992. It's a never ending puzzle. So if you like the idea of writing, specifically copywriting, testing, writing, doing statistical analysis, oh and writing... Then it's a pretty fun hobby or side job. I don't do too much of the affiliate thing, but instead focus on products - but it's still direct response marketing.

Me too - I love this type of work!
Do you mean you create your own products?

Remember the story you aren't hearing is how much money is invested to do $30k in business.
If he's paying 50cents a click and it takes 20 clicks to sell 1 product, he's paid $10 up front to play the odds of selling the product. What happens if it takes 40 clicks to sell the product? There is a lot of ROI (return on investment) analysis that you must do to keep ahead of the game.

Oh, I know. It seems pretty common to spend $10 (on PPC) in order to make $15 or $20.

If you decide it is for you, here are some tips... master 3-5 keywords at a time. Don't throw your money at 2000 keywords right off the bat. Get your 3-5 keywords rolling so they produce money consistently and then add to your list.

Great advice!
