By Editor May 13, 2007 filed in Internet Marketing, Affiliate Mktg, Newsletter, Queries
Hi,
This is Rajeev Agarwal I am looking some online earning methods. Currently Working in a software company, Pune, India. I ca me to know about Google Adwords. I have gone thru with several pdf files regarding the same from the internet. They have a lot of promising regarding earning in few days just spending little time.
I have some confusions which are as follows:
1) I am not so much aware about the products popular in other countries how then I will come to know about that.
2) The other thing is that if I think to plan to spend 2000-3000 Rs/month paying Google to show ads then will that really worthful.
3) What should be my plan regarding this.
4) Can you tell me what kind of efforts, knowledge, money and patience required for this.

Hi Rajeev,
You are asking all the right questions a beginner should - anyone who is trying to purchase traffic using Google Adwords, sending this traffic to Affiliate Links/Websites, earning commissions, and netting the difference between commission and PPC expense as the profit. I have been doing this for close to 5 years now and hope to be able to be of some assistance.
The biggest challenge in Affiliate Marketing lies in picking the right product/service to market. There are ones which DO NOT sell at all even after spending a lot on Adwords, there are others which sell from day one. So, how do you figure out which one to choose ?
No matter who tells you what - remember the REALITY is that there is a lot left to chance whether you can find that one successful program before your budget runs out. There are 3 things that I CAN tell you for sure:
1 - This DOES work. If you find a successful product to market, there is a lot of money to be made. All the People selling ebooks claiming that this CAN be done ARE NOT lying. What may be false though, is the ease with which they claim this can be done. IT IS NOT EASY TO FIND A SUCCESSFUL AFFILIATE PROGRAM, PERIOD. Jay, Ashwin & I (co-founders of AffiliateCurry), are veterans of Affiliate Marketing and have been at this for years now, and we still struggle to find the next successful program.
2 - Rules CANNOT be applied to this mode of earning. You cannot be sure which will work, which will not. A lot of programs need to be tried, your gut just gets better with experience, as is true with any mode of marketing. Rules ALSO CANNOT be applied to making this business scale. The next successful program might be found next month or 6 months later.
3 - Google Adwords Advertising needs some learning and makes a HUGE difference in whether you can be successful or not. This is what you do to advertise, so you need to be good at creating the Ads, be good at deciding which keywords to bid for, and also learn how to manage budgets efficiently. Some advertisers will blow up their Advertising money on irrelevant and non converting keywords, others will know how to draw maximum out of each campaign. There is sufficient material out there on mastering Adwords, I suggest all starters devote some serious time to it.
So what should one conclude from all this ?
Affiliate Marketing using Google Adwords should not be approached with the assumption that it is going to be easy. There is no saying how much time or money you will need to burn to start being successful. You can get lucky and hit the jackpot early, or your patience and budget can really get tested. That, I am afraid, is reality. On the flipside, if you hit a successful program, you might just earn from it for years, without having to do much else after that. Just the way all those Neat Books and Single Page websites claim.
Anybody, think otherwise ? Feel Free to post here to keep this discussion going. There is nothing more I would like than to hear from fellow Affiliate Marketers.
Thanks,
Arnab.

do not start with adwords. start from adsense

I agree with Vivek.
Adsense is a better option because you don’t have to sell anything to earn not does it require you to put up with your money.
I have earned from adsense.
