PPC AdWords Scares Me
By Alan | July 8, 2008
I’ve said this before…PPC (pay-per-click) and AdWords scares me! I’ve bought Perry Marshall’s fantastic AdWords Guide but I’ve only dabbled in PPC.. Even the phrase PAY PER CLICK is scary. You are paying for each and every one of those clicks. I’ve known folks who have lost hundreds of dollars within hours. And I’ve heard of others spending $1,000 and getting only $200 sales.
I’ve known for a long time that the big hitter super affiliates use PPC. Rumors of super affiliates spending 500K to generate those million dollar affiliate salaries. Which is fantastic…I would love to spend 500K to make 500K but I don’t have 500K to spend. 
I’m sure you’re on a lot of IM lists (just like me) and Google Nemesis is about to hit today. And no I’m not promoting it (not sure if I could anyway…I don’t have the keys to the guru executive club). But Chris (affiliate marketing legend…you know Mr. X, Day Job Killer, Google Assassin, and now Google Nemesis). He released a video promoting Google Nemesis. First , let me say, I’m not getting Google Nemesis. Looks fine (helps you put up quick landing pages, etc.) but at $47 per month…I’ll pass. Anyway…his video showed one of his successfully run PPC campaigns. Proof again that all the big hitters are using PPC.
So I figure I need to get over my apprehension over PPC. So I decided to buy a software that looks phenomenal. I just bought it so I can’t say if it’s any good yet but it’s called Xtreme Conversions. It’s pricey at around $100 and I was being good about buying expensive software but Xtreme Conversions really looks like it can make a bid difference in my PPC endeavours.
The few times I’ve tried PPC I was using a slew of spreadsheets to try and track things like which keywords were converting. Xtreme Conversion manages that for you. It’s been called the “secret weapon” off super affiliates. And think of this. In this world of IM hyper promotions…how many times have you received an email about Xtreme Conversions? If your like me…not many at all. I can’t even think of one and I’m on most IM big hitters list.
I’ve done my due diligence and this software has a rabid following. I hate to go conspiracy theory on you all but maybe that’s why our mailbox isn’t being bombarded every day with promotions for Xtreme Conversions.
Like I wrote, I just bought Xtreme Conversions for my PPC plans yesterday so I the jury is still out on it for me. Rest assures I’ll be blogging about it. I have a 30 day money back guarantee to try it out so if I don’t see results you’ll know right here.
