Better read carefully the T.O.S ( Term Of Services ) inside each of PPC's before you take an action for joining one or more than one of them.
Frequently read the FORUM enclose also can help us to decide which one the best.
At the end, everything is under your own risk...good luck...!!!

Yes, PPC is really good but make sure you don't make numerous clicks from same ip-address. It can get you good income.

If you have the funds and the right training on how to use keywords with PPC, then yes. Personally, I don't mess around with it. Kind of makes me feel like I standing on the sidewalk with a sign that says, "I'm giving away money!" LOL...:)

Hi,

Yes, PPC can be very profitable. Some of the keys are establishing a realistic cost per click budget based on the average revenue per customer. And....starting with a small program to understand the dynamics and costs before scaling up to a larger costlier campaign.

Good Luck,

While PPC can be very profitable, it is also the fastest way to “lose your shirt” on the Internet!
What do I mean; you can lose A LOT of money very FAST if you don’t know what you are doing.

If you are going to be profitable with PPC, do yourself a favour, and ensure the following:

  • That you have a HIGHLY OPTIMIZED Landing page(s) which convert (s) well.
  • Set a daily budget which you can afford for each of your campaigns.
  • Only target your campaigns to countries/regions where your prospective customers are located.
  • Have separate campaigns for content network, Search network and Partner network.
  • Link your Google Analytics to your PPC account and set up Goals & Conversion tracking.
  • Separate your keywords into closely related Ad groups – write at least two ads for each Ad group, send visitors to relevant pages.
  • Start with only phrase match “ “ and exact match [ ] at first, while using negative keywords.
  • Track and measure everything, running reports everyday to gather intelligence which you act on.

    This is not an exhaustive list, but will get you going on a good footing.

If you don’t understand any of these concepts send me a PM.

All great points peekayb, I'd just add run a test campaign on a secondary search provider like 7Search, once it's tuned port the campaign over to Google or the other major search engines.

yes, it's profitable, but nowadays is hard because of fake clicks on ads, and really need to be cautious.

PPC can be very lucrative. Some of the key is to establish a realistic cost per click budget on the basis of average revenue per customer. And From a small program to understand the dynamics and costs before expanding to a larger more expensive campaign.
