Google Adwords Profit

Five Steps to Profit from Google Adwords

by: Gerardas Norkus

Although I was marketing online since 1997 and was making 
money on the Internet, as soon as I discovered the famous 
GoogleCash ebook I was instantly hooked. It seemed so easy 
to profit from Google Adwords: just join an affiliate 
program, promote it on Google Adwords pay per click (ppc) 
search engine starting from only five dollars, and watch 
your profits soar... 

However, soon I realized that it was not that simple. You 
must know how to select profitable affiliate programs, how 
to research keywords and group them in ad groups, how to 
bid and manage your campaigns, how to track your keywords 
and ads, etc. 

The subject was very interesting for me and I just kept 
reading a great deal of information related to making 
income with Google Adwords: ebooks, guides, tutorials and 
e-mail courses. 

After trying to implement the knowledge gained in 
practice, after long trial and error months, I was finally 
making profit and not losing my money. 

Here are five little-known steps that you should take in 
order to profit from Goolge Adwords: 

1. Target profitable two-tier or residual income niche 
markets. 

2. Use effective tools and software for your Google 
Adwords keyword research. 

3. Get a domain name, a hosting account, and create a 
simple landing page with an opt-in form. 

4. Promote your landing page with Google Adwords and 
capture your visitors' e-mail addresses. 

5. Follow up with your subscribers and profit by 
pre-selling your niche products or services. 

Let's quickly analyze each of the steps outlined above and 
see why you should stick to the plan if you want to 
maximize your income from Google Adwords. 

Promote Profitable Niche Two Tier Or Residual Income 
Products And Services 

First, the products or services that you will promote with 
Google Adwords should target a niche where people have lots 
of money and are willing to spend it. 

Second, you can make much more money if you advertise 
two-tier or residual income products or services. 

Usually, majority of Google Adwords books teach you to 
choose an affiliate program from publisher networks like 
ClickBank, Commission Junction, LinkShare, etc. But these 
are the programs that everybody use. So, try to do a 
research on two-tier or residual income programs in your 
target niche, and you may be surprized with the results... 

Two-tier programs reward you for signing up affiliates. 
This way you earn commissions not only on your sales, you 
earn commissions on their sales too. 

A good example of residual income programs are web hosting 
affiliate programs where you can profit from your sales 
lifelong! 

Use Effective Tools for Your Google Adwords Keyword Research 

First, did you know that you can spy on your competitors 
keywords by using an amazing tool called GoogSpy:

Simply, enter a domain name of your direct competitors and 
see what keywords they are bidding on. This little-known 
secret could make your online profits soar instantly. 

Second, as you probably know, the competition among 
advertisers in ppc marketing is fierce. That's why you 
should avoid using only free keyword research tools like 
Overture's Keyword Selector:

You will miss lots of profitable keywords if you do so. To 
succeed with ppc the only tool that works is WordTracker:

You should take at least a one day's subscription when you 
are ready for your keyword research. 

Get a Domain name, a Hosting Account, and Create a Simple 
Landing Page 

If you don't have your own web site for your niche product 
or service that you advertise with ppc search engines, you 
are leaving money on the table. Here's why... 

Capture Your Google Adwords Visitors' E-mail Addresses 

Yes, you can promote affiliate links directly with Google 
Adwords. However, this way you will lose lots of prospects 
that could be contacted later. 

Picture this... 

When you promote an affiliate link you drive traffic 
directly to your affiliate web site. If a visitor doesn't 
purchase the product or service immediately, the chances 
are he or she will never purchase from your affiliate link 
again. 

Of course, top affiliate programs place cookies on their 
web site visitors' browsers. This way you get paid even if 
your referral returns to your affiliate web site later. 
That's why it is important to select the best affiliate 
programs from the begining. 

If you can achieve 1% visitor to sales conversion ratio 
(it means 1 sale from 100 visitors) with Google Adwords - 
you have a winner! 

Imagine... What if you could set up a simple opt-in form 
on your landing page and write a great copy encouraging 
your visitors to subscribe to your newsletter or an e-mail 
course? You would enjoy not 1% but 20 - 30% visitor to 
subscriber conversion ratio when driving targeted traffic 
to your web site with Google Adwords! 

You see, when you capture email addresses, you build a 
list. And, as they say - money is in the list! 

Follow Up With Your Subscribers and Pre-Sell Your Products 
and Services 

This step is where you make real profit. Simply, create 
quality targeted content in your newsletter or ecourse and 
follow up with your prospects using autoresponders. 

It is said that online products and services are sold 
after 7 - 9 follow up messages. Besides, you can contact 
your subscribers anytime later as new quality products hit 
your targeted niche market. 

This simple surefire action plan should help you boost 
your homebased Google Adwords business profit instantly. As 
you can see, without a web site you cannot profit as much 
as you could by simply creating a one-page website.
