A short, practical roadmap that fills gaps left in the replies above: focus first on measurable goals, reliable tracking, and a simple experiment plan you can iterate quickly.

  • Pick one clear objective and one KPI (for example cost-per-lead, cost-per-sale, or return on ad spend). Everything you do should move that metric.
  • Measurement first: install analytics and platform conversion tags, verify conversions with test actions, and capture call or store conversions if relevant.
  • Account structure and creative: group keywords by a single theme per ad group, give each ad group 2–3 distinct ad texts that vary one element, and use extensions that help the objective (calls, sitelinks, etc).
  • Keyword workflow: start with a focused seed list, run it briefly, then use the campaign search-terms data to add high-intent queries and negatives so wasted spend drops.
  • Landing pages: match the ad message and the user intent, make the main call to action obvious, optimize for mobile and speed, and measure funnel drop-off with events.
  • Budget and bids: begin with a small live budget to learn which terms convert; run manual bids until conversion patterns are clear, then trial automated bidding once you have stable conversion data.

This builds on points made by , , and while adding practical steps: track conversions before optimizing, protect spend with negatives and IP exclusions, and remember that the offer and landing experience determine profit more than click volume. Run one focused test (one product, one geography, two ad variants) for 7–14 days, document results, and change only one variable at a time. Keep experiments small, measure cost-per-conversion, and iterate.

PPC is pay-per-click advertising. It's when you buy advertising by paying for each individual click. Often times, PPC is associated with search engine advertising, such as Google AdWords.

Like other said PPC is pay per click, and there is also a thing called PPV or pay for view. PPV is going to be cheaper to advertise with but you have to pay if someone even loads a page with your ad. Whereas PPC is going to usually have people that are more likely to be interested in your ad because they clicked on it. I am semi-new to this too because I have no reason to advertise so just correct me if I am wrong...

Make sure to do thorough keyword research using google's keyword tool. This will not only tell you what keywords are searched for the most, but it can also tell you what those keywords will cost you. I would shoot for cheap longtail keywords and set your budget accordingly. Split test ads. Testing is huge aspect of PPC.

You can get a lot of free info here:

http://www.payperclicksearchengines.com/

It is a website by long time internet marketers
Allan Gardyne and it has some nice articles.

Also, probably the most valued advice you can get
from Perry Marshall, who is acclaimed to be "the
king of adwords". He provides a lot of info for free,
however to get His masterpies Definitive Guide to
Adwords, you need to buy it.

However, PPC is only one part of marketing. Without
having a good offer you are not going to make money.

Check this forum and also warrior forum to get you
started in the internet marketing.
