Everywhere you look there are advertisements. All of them are boasting about people making 100’s of dollars by using Adwords to sell products. Added to this is the fact that they are only spending 2-3 hours per day. These ads want to persuade you that this is the norm and you too can easily make 100’s per day by “just flipping on the switch of your computer.

However do not be fooled, few people can conduct their business working only 2-3 hours a day. In reality there is so much to do that these sort of hours are just a dream, especially for new entrepreneurs. In reality a Google Adword campaign takes more careful micro-management than most promotions.

Bear in mind a few points. Your initial keywords will be found by using Google’s database of frequently searched keywords. Then you will compile a second list of keywords that you think are relevant to your business. Then you will compare the 2 lists.

After you have assembled all the keywords, you then have to decide how much to bid on each one of them. Of course you will not be emailing Google with your bid, you will be considering paying for good positions. The higher the bid the better position you ad will be in. Google actually places ads according to the highest bidder. These favorable positions will draw the most traffic. This allows Google and the advertiser to earn more.

Adwords works on a pay per click system. Every time a reader clicks your ad you will be charged a nominal fee. You will do this regardless of whether a sale is completed. The better the click through rate the more money Google makes. The highest bidder will attain the best position for an ad.

It is important to keep a close eye on your campaign, once you have completed the bidding and the ad is active. You will need to be aware of minute details, especially keyword popularity. Keyword popularity can fluctuate and unpopular keywords will not bring in the money.

Let’s face it you will not make 100’s a day just spending little or no time on your Google campaign. However on the other hand you will become a master at micro-management and multi tasking. When you perfect these skills you stand a good chance of joining the elite few who have made their businesses boom with this type of promotion.

With Google Adwords’ tools and tutorials you will become a master of detailed management very quickly. This will enable you to spend less time managing your campaigns and more time finding ways to profit with your business.
