How much is the traffic going to cost you? How many visitors will you need to make 1 sale?

At $4 a click, you get what? $0.80? $2? How many visitors do you need to get 1 who clicks on an ad?

Well, i want to search some keywords. I will look for high bid something like 4$ or more,
A high Avg monthly searches >5000 and no matter how the competition is because i will buy traffic.
After i find the keyword i will buy a high quality article about 700 words and prepare it for seo then post it to my wordpress website.

I will go for facebook ads and link that post to the ad!!

I will repeat and repeat that, search keyword create article and go to facebook maybe 20 time or more.

Im think also about twitter ads!!!

Do you think its a good or a bad idea?

Regards,

Thanks

Im not sure about that but i can spend 5 dollars a day on facebook ads! I think the number of visitors depends the keyword chosed!!

That sort of plan needs testing, start small and see if it works, if it does scale up.

Hmm, one question comes to mind, are visitors who hit a site via an ad more or less likely to click another ad???

Yes thats what i want!! Do you mean more or less likely to click an ad inside my website? If they liked the website and content im sure they will click on some ads or at least they will subscribe on the email list!!

Thanks

I think you missed my point.

If you spend $5 dollars and get back $4?

The point was: can you choose keywords and get enough visitors to click that the cost of the traffic is less than what you eaarn?

No I meant if a visitor found your site via an ad are they more or less likely to click another ad.

Some people (me for example) never click ads, I'm wondering if there are people who like clicking ads.

Regarding AdSense one of the worst things I've found you can do for a high CTR is give your visitors what they want! Most of my traffic comes from organic search, if they visit one of my sites and find exactly what they are looking for there is no reason to click a related ad away.

For example I sell an SEO theme, if they find the theme I sell is exactly what they are looking for why would a visitor click an AdSense ad to another SEO theme? So if you are making AdSense sites the best content in my experience is it doesn't quite supply the visitor with what they were looking: the SEO theme example might be a page that suggests I'm selling an SEO theme, but I'm not so more visitors click relevant ads away from the site.

The above advice is only if you care about a high CTR of your AdSense ads. Webmasters aren't going to link or share your content if it's lacking. A good example of a made for AdSense site I own is elvincountry.com the content sort of covers what users are looking for, but there's no online way to find further details, so if they want more it's write to the company or click an ad and find another source.

Another extreme is an accident on a WordPress site I own where I installed my SEO theme which includes AdSense ads and didn't add any WordPress posts, just pages which meant the homepage had no content: just a line of content saying "No Posts Found" and some empty widgets and a half a dozen links to static pages (added half a dozen static pages) on the top menu and a couple of AdSense ads. So no real content, the rest of the site lacks AdSense ads (just the home page has ads).

Didn't realize I'd left it this way for over a year, the home page with ads on generated ~7,000 pageviews (took about a year to generate that number of hits) and has made over £300 in AdSense clicks. Not bad for a page with no content, the CTR is around 10%.

First of all, if Adwords is telling you a keyword pays $4 it won't pay that for adsense. AdSense will probably pay around $.40-$.70 per click.

You're trying to do adsense arbitrage. Regular FB ads are too expensive like Clicks to website. To do it the way you want to do it you would want to try Facebook video ads. They cost $.01-$.03 per view. That's not website clicks but views. What you want to do is put your website link above the video to get people to click over. You make a post on your FB page with the video. If you can find a viral type video in your niche and lots of people end up sharing it and liking it, your video ad view costs will go down to a fraction of a penny.

The other way to do adsense arbitrage is by advertising on Outbrain.com. But in this method you need to have a website full of articles and you need to have very "clickable" titles on your articles. Make people want to click them.

Then you add each page into Outbrain. The higher the click through rate the lower your ad costs. You can start it off at $.10 per click. But after your campaign starts begin to lower your CPC until your traffic starts dropping. I've gotten it down to $.03 per click with a high CTR.

The thing about Outbrain is that you will need to keep producing content on your site. After a couple of weeks people stop clicking on your ad for your article because everyone's seen it.

But just so you know, adsense arbitrage really only works in bigger viral niches not boring niches. In viral niches you'll be paying for traffic but you'll get a lot of free traffic from sharing.

I noticed there's a widget for adding Outbrain to your site, but I don't see a way of setting up a "publisher's account" to be paid for the click thru's.

Well, by buying ads you should be able to get well targeted traffic. However, this isn't a guarantee that many visitors will click your ads. You could end up spending $5 on Facebook ads and get $0.30 in return! Or... you can end up spending $5 and make a good profit, so your plan is neither good or bad, IMO. You need to test it out and see. However, I'd suggest you try bringing in some free traffic as well, don't relay solely on paid traffic.

Thanks

THe best way
We’re not talking about strangers here. For the strangers that visit your site, your content will have to do all the talking for you. But for the people in your daily life, the ones you want to click on your referral button, the ones you want to read and comment on your blog; these are the ones you want to be able to enlighten about the Google Adsense program.

First, excitement breeds excitement. Get excited about your new venture and others will too. Learn everything you can about the Google Adsense program, not only will this increase your earnings, but you’ll be better equipped to explain the mechanics of the program to others.

Show them the money. There’s nothing like a little proof to make a believer out of someone. You don’t have to wait until you’re making thousands per month, although that’s a healthy goal. But even a small deposit in your piggy bank is enough to intrigue most people. Can’t you just count those referrals now?

Using paid ads is a lousy way to make money on adsense.

Google tells adsense users to use paid ads (mainly of course adwords)
two ways.

#1. You have a business. Like autoparts, plastic surgery, whatever.
You use adwords to drum up customers. But, you know everyone
clicking will not purchase. So, an adsense click is a slight possibility.
Note google never says to use adwords as a way to make money
off of adsense.

#2. You want signups, followers, readers, etc. of your blog, or just
to put your brand out there. Again, in hopes that someone may
click an adsense ad. But again, the click on an adsense ad is
secondary.

I think people dramatically overstate "targeted" traffic on paid ads,
especially on FB. I read nothing about FB delivering any such
thing en masse. One reason they have a gosh awful time making
real money: They lack big money advertisers. It's hard to make a buck
on dime ads from mom and pop.

Adwords has such a learning curve, that nobody in their right mind making
20 cents a click is going to invest the time and effort. 20 cents is what
most people will take per ad, contrary to popular belief.

You're guaranteed to fail buying traffic for the sake of Adsense considering you can't track any ROI between paid traffic & Adsense earnings.

All you're doing is guessing which will stop once your ad money runs out.

BTW, wrong forum.
