How To make Money w/ Google Adwords

Can you really make money from this?

Late 2003, I think was the first time an eBook popped up that claimed that one could make money from Google Adwords. The main method that was revealed involved combining Google Adwords and the Clickbank affiliate program, to make money, online, everyday almost on autopilot.

Please allow me to very quickly outline how you can make money on the internet, using this system. Here are 2 things you need to get started...

1) You need a Google Adwords account. => http://adwords.google.com/

2) You also have to sign up as a Clickbank affiliate => http://www.clickbank.com/

Ok, so how does it work? Well, you simply go to clickbank.com and on the main page you click on "Promote Products" on the right. You will be taken to the index page of all products being sold via Clickbank. Each product is listed with a short description and the percentage you make as an affiliate.

Just select the product you wish to promote, grab your affiliate promotion URL, by clicking on the [earn 50%]. Your personal affiliate link will pop up, just copy and paste that, into a text editor like notepad. The next thing I like to do is visit the main sales page of the product I have selected, and select some benefits from the sales copy, I can then use these to write my Google Adwords Ad.

Alright then, how do you write your Ad? The general profitable Google Adwords format that has seemed to work for many is like this. Line one your heading ask a question, line two mention a feature of the product or eBook, line 3 give a benefit, then line 4 your websites address goes there.

Once you have selected your budget and you submit your ad, it will probably start showing on the Google network within the next 10 minutes. When searchers see your Google ad, they click on it and Google will charge you for every click, according to how much you bid on a particular keyword. If the searcher who clicks on your ad, then goes ahead and buys from the site, you will receive the respective commission from Clickbank, and you can check your earnings when you login to your clickbank account.

However, there are 2 things to watch out for... Your Return on Investment (ROI) and your Click through Rate (CTR). The ROI helps you determine how profitable your Google Ad is, when you subtract the cost of running your ads from the amount earned in your clickbank account. The CTR helps you fine tune your ad so you can increase the number of people clicking on it especially if its a profitable ad, if more people are clicking on the ad itself it would probably result in an increase in your affiliate income. In Conclusion... You can also use Google Adwords to promote your own websites and other non clickbank products too, you just need to adopt and adjust the system I have outlined above.
