Online Marketing

Archive for the ‘PPC Marketing’ Category

PPC’s are very expensive and sometimes I feel that they just want your money and do not concentrate on your campaign. I am trying to figure out the best way to market my online boutique to the right audience, which would be the baby/children’s area. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with how to advertise and market an online boutique successfully without losing your shirt? Many thanks for any replies!

If you are a "DIU" [do it yourselfer], you should consider the following strategy which works very well in promoting your website by setting up a properly metatagged website.

You may want to consider some simple algorithms which, when observed and committed in designing of a website with placement of various critical metatags that can surely achieve a high search engine presence and increase Internet traffic to your website. These metatag strategies work well with published webpages at Google and Yahoo.

Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based website, make sure to fill-in the property entries such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the Internet audience and their incoming setup. For example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages take too long to load up and therefore analog users will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text, is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.

Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots are unable to properly classify textual material.

Placement of Metatags:

A ranking or search order does take place with Google and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which should consist of no more than 65 characters separated by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic terms, the goods and services, followed by a location from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state. The placement of a domain name which is not generic within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your domain name is a major recognizable brand name.

The second metatag is the "Description" which is usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which best describes one’s goods and services.

And the very last category – "Keywords" are also somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which is defined as the loading, and submission of repetitive words into a particular metatag category.

[Please take note that any reference contained in any answer is stated as a fact and is not meant to represent any commercial advertisement or promotion thereof nor a solicitation to a particular website. And any reference to a particular link is just that, a "reference only." The major source of these facts are from public domain archives and therefore, have no commercial value since most of the facts are freely had.]

Good luck!

As mentioned earlier, PPC stands for pay-per-click. PPC is an effective option for affiliate promotion, if it is done correctly. You should be aware of the word ‘pay’ in PPC. You will be required to pay for every click you receive on your link, and if you don’t pay close attention, your PPC costs can become astronomical!

PPC doesn’t always work for affiliate Marketing. First, you must be aware of the rules at the site where you are getting your PPC. For instance, Google has rules about promoting affiliate programs with Google AdWords PPC program.

Google does permit affiliate links in their AdWords, but they will only display one affiliate ad per search query, and this includes that of the parent company. They also will not allow links to replicated affiliate websites.

So, what you must consider here is that since there are other affiliates selling the same product you are selling, the chances of your ad actually being seen and clicked on are very slim. Second, if you have a replicated website for your affiliate programs, your ad won’t show at all.

You must get more creative if you hope to profit from your affiliate programs using PPC. First, don’t use an affiliate link. Use your own link for your own domain, and send the visitor to your website first. You should also have them pass through a squeeze page first to collect their name and email address!

Start small with your PPC campaigns. Do your keyword research, and set yourself a budget. Work within that budget to test different ads. Also, avoid using long affiliate links. These links are obvious to people, and many people avoid them. Again, people do not like to be sold to.

Instead of using PPC to sell a product, use PPC to get qualified leads and to build a list. You will find that this is a much more economical and effective use of PPC in the long run. It may take just a little longer to make the sale, but if you are patient, you will earn more money than you would have otherwise.

Even if you use a PPC company that does allow the use of replicated websites, or will show more than one affiliate ad at a time, where your ad does have more potential for being seen and clicked, it is important that you drive your PPC traffic to the right place.

Again, the squeeze page is essential, as this will help you build a quality list of qualified leads. Many successful marketers use PPC for this purpose and this purpose only. If you drive the traffic straight from the PPC ad to the affiliate link, you won’t have any way to contact that visitor in the future.

Further more, you will most likely be driving the visitor to a sales page that may or may not convert the visitor. It is better to bring the visitor to your site and prep them for the sale. By the time they click on your affiliate link, they should have their credit card in hand, ready to make a purchase. This typically won’t happen if they are going from Google Search to your affiliate sales page.

The majority of buyers do not start out with the intention to buy. This is especially true on the Internet. On the Internet, where everything is free (according to many people), what buyers are looking for is free information or help.

If you can provide these people with the free information that they are looking for, or free tools that help them with their problem, you’ve won half the battle. Now, you are building a relationship, and you will profit greatly from that relationship over time.
When setting up a PPC campaign, become the customer in your mind. What does the customer want or need? How can you provide them with this free of charge in order to build a relationship? At what point is the customer primed to buy?

Only you can answer these questions, based on your niche, but in answer to the last question, you can bet that in most cases, the customer is not ready to buy when they click on your PPC link! You’ve got to get them into your process, and groom them for the sale.

Affiliate marketing isn’t just a question of signing up and then using PPC to sell the product, no matter what you’ve read elsewhere. Again, it’s about building a relationship with your future customers, so that they become life long customers.

PPC, Pay per Click, is an internet marketing tool that is receiving a lot of attention these days. In PPC, the search engine or the blog on which the advertisement has been placed doesn’t charge a fixed fee from the advertiser. Instead, the advertiser has to pay for each click the user has done on the advertisement in order to reach its website. Companies can have their ads. appearing on the side-bars of search engine when certain keywords are searched. The rate for each click, often called Cost per Click (CPC), is determined according to the demand for those particular keywords (listed by the advertiser) that displays particular pages on the search engine or any other blog on which the ad. is visible. 

PPC is one of the most modern marketing technologies to attract potential customers to the company’s website & if used intelligently, can very quickly turn a user into a company’s customer. So, if a company is interested in quick results, then PPC campaign should definitely be one of the components of its Internet Marketing plan, as it can be a good investment for a company in a highly competitive & rapidly growing market.

Just like any other marketing campaign, the long-term goal of a PPC campaign is also to earn more money than is spent on it. For this, a thorough calculation has to be done in order to find the cost per click the company should go for to maximize its ROI (Return on Investment).

Since management of PPC Marketing is a time consuming job & requires constant data analysis through strong understanding of internet marketing, many companies take professional help from internet marketing companies who have expertise in this field. This helps in tracking the result in a much professional & effective manner.

For a PPC campaign to be effective, one must select the keywords or phrases very carefully e.g., the ones that describe company’s products, so that the maximum number of potential customers are attracted towards the website furnishing desired results for the company. Various tools are available on the internet for this purpose, some of which are even free. Besides, it’s better to have a different ad. for each set of words rather than to have a single ad. appearing for all the sets of keywords. You can also plan in such a way that with each type of ad. linked to a particular set of keywords, the user lands on a desired page of the website.

PPC advertising is viable to click fraud that has been a hot topic on internet since last few years. In a click fraud, someone just keeps clicking the ad. in order to add to the cost of the advertiser without having any interest in the website. This might be done by a spiteful competitor, a dishonest advertising company or anybody who is against the company. Different methods have been used by advertising companies in order to deal with such situations including the use of various software that track whether the click is genuine or not.
