Service to run my adwords.

Can I pay someone to do it for me?

Do such services exist that guarantee good click through rates?

Not that i'm lazy, but i've read ten PDF's on google adwords and my head is spinning, and I'm drowning in on hold and pay us five dollars warnings.

thanks,
Justin

Some folks here who do it include eWhisper and me.

Why pay someone when there are hundreds of self-starters that will do it for nothing?

1. Open up an affiliate program that pays a decent commission

2. Tell your affiliates that it's OK to use your company name in their Pay Per Click ads (Keyword, Title and Description).

3. Provide your affiliates with a list of Prohibitted Keywords/Titles (like your main competitors' company and trademarked names).

4. Go back to running your business. Your affiliates will take care of your Adwords advertising for you.

As an added bonus - you don't have to pay them anything unless their ads result in a product sale.

Welcome to WebmasterWorld.

Not only are there services that exist, Google has a screening process where someone can become an AdWords Professional.

Justin,

These services help you to cut down your learning time. Although a good Click through is important, what really counts are sales or leads in other words conversions. A PPC management company will help you find out quickly if Adwords works for you.

For our 80% of our customers (yes we are a European PPC management firm) Adwords makes a lot of business sense, and for 20% it does not.

Indeed make sure you check whether the company you consider to engage passed their Google Professional advertizer test.

Thanks for all the good responses.

Now, i'm not doing affiliate clicks or anything like that.

I am trying to drive traffic to my ebaystore to sell higher dollar widgets. Car engines for example, these can be a couple grand a piece.

Now, i'm 22 years old and trying to get this thing off the ground, and I'd rather pay someone to do it right then me messing with it forever and never seeing its full potential.

What should I expect to pay for someone to run a few campaigns for me?

I assume the campaigns would all be cut and paste because they are all car engines, just need to replace the specific keywords and tailor it to each individual item.

Thanks for the tip about google ad professional, I never knew that, but it makes sense.
Thanks,
Justin
