    I just got killed with Google adwords

    I just checked my credit card bill and was stunned, $270 for a google adwords campaign.
    I wont go into specifics but I got a lot of impressions and about 4% click throughs and $0 in sales. Not 1 sale.

    I'm just stunned here. I thought this traffic was supposed to be gold. Ive done better on tgp traffic.

      Expect to lose money in the beginning with adwords. I burnt through $1k before I was able to make a positive ROI. It does have a learning curve.

              why would it work after $1k but not before that?
              Are you tweaking the ad along the way, or just leaving it there and waiting?

                      the problem with adwords is the small volume

                      ( unless you set up 500 campaigns for mini niches like WG probably does )
                      I don't use ICQ anymore.

                          If it helps at all generic terms such as 'porn' 'sex' etc are usually way overpriced and convert like shit. Think niche and specific and LOTS of them.

                              Do you do any ad campaign consulting?

                              Im not going to fly blind on this anymore, its frustrating as well as budget busting.

                                              Anything positive is good. Adwords is one of the lower ROI engines out there lately for me though unless we're looking at micro-niches. But for something generic, something in the area of 15% is descent.

                                                      I think if you put a higher daily budget for the campain, your ADs will be displayed more

                                                              If the terms are that 'specific' it can be tough to run up that sort of bill for very targetted terms unless it was over a long period of time. The bill seemed to indicate a bigger term or two. Anyways - have fun tweaking if you decide to keep trying

                                                                      Traffic from my TGP galleries converted from trial to monthly at better than twice the rate that the google traffic converted.

                                                                      Go figure.

                                                                          If the terms are that 'specific' it can be tough to run up that sort of bill for very targetted terms unless it was over a long period of time. The bill seemed to indicate a bigger term or two. Anyways - have fun tweaking if you decide to keep trying

                                                                              maybe 1 or two campaigns where i had cost=payout. but those eventually stopped.

                                                                              maybe it might help to turn off the network content for google if u dont think its doing well.

                                                                              You can get some nice findwhat results.. i publish them and let me tell ya, they get great exposure

There's really too many factors for me to answer that question with a single answer. I'll just say practice makes perfect. Old cliche, but it's true. I'm still tweaking my ads and keywords on a daily basis.

                                                                                                      I wont go into specifics but I got a lot of impressions and about 4% click throughs and $0 in sales. Not 1 sale.
                                                                                                      Why didn't you stop the campaign then? You only pay for clicks with AdWords not impressions.

                                                                                                                                                  We tweaked Ashley's campaign today and impressions are WAY up, over 1,000
                                                                                                                                                  by the end of the day or more - click through rate isn't good now, 3% - problem is she can't remember what the last text ad that was that was doing 14% click through and neither can I. doh!

I realize that this is an adult board but some people may be doing campaigns for casinos, pharmacies, etc, where things are different. Good advice though, that's about what I look for also with my adult campaigns.

I will give it a break and then try again with a different product/sponsor. Couple of times I made a profit, but overall I would be well and truly in the red. Tried changing wording, keywords, bid amounts, products. Guess its not my thing lol. Good replacement for poker machines though, one day I might make a profit there.

                                                                                                                                                                  Yes, I think your 100% correct. Every word is crucial and probably my big downfall, that and not taking much notice of how much per click I'm paying. I used to just make sure I was #1 or close to it and that obviously was costing me too much!

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I wont go into specifics but I got a lot of impressions and about 4% click throughs and $0 in sales. Not 1 sale.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I'm just stunned here. I thought this traffic was supposed to be gold. Ive done better on tgp traffic.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  The add really does make a diffrance. Also put your domain name in it so you get branding from the impressions.

                                                                                                                                                                                                      Traffic from my TGP galleries converted from trial to monthly at better than twice the rate that the google traffic converted.
