Hello Group:brbrI am new to adwords but pretty savvy when it comes to marketing, my ads are pretty good, I have read a lot about setting up good ads. I actually bought an ebook about selling cell phones on the web. I have a site
http://www.cellphonecitydirect.com.brI have a few sales but unfortunately the expense of adwords offsets the sales.brI get $50 per phone, about 1400 clicks so far but 6 sales, even being optimistic, figuring 200 clicks per sale, I can't afford to pay more than 20 cents a click or so, the problem is most of the sponsors and big players are paying from a dollar to 2.5 per click?brMy keyword list is very expansive includes phrase and exact matching, I have about 15 ads running. Both to my site and direct to sponsor.brbrThe book I bought, is pretty useless, he keeps his bids at 11 to 15 cents, most, if not a majority of the ads, don't even validate at those prices. So the info is pretty useless. Even with great ads, you simply won't rank with bids that low.brbrAny advice would be appreciated? How can affiliates make money with adwords, most products, will make me about $50, many will make much less! What am I missing?brbrThxbrbrPaulbrbr
