      Hi Paul,

      I myself have had decent returns from advertising similar services through Adwords, however, it's a competitive landscape and you will need to keep a close eye on bid prices and more. Adwords is a real budget sucker if not tested and done correctly.

      Becoming an advertiser through BuySellAds.com and partnering with a publisher that gets your kind of targeted traffic has proven to be much more profitable than CPC with that business model though. You have a bigger spend to get started but you get considerably better exposure, higher quality traffic, and more clicks

      Consider this: I just took a quick look at their Web Design & Development page, and can see tons of options. MatthewWoodward.com is offering a big 300x250 ad space for $22.22 for every 1k impressions, with an estimated total of 130,000 impressions over a 30 day period...

      Compare that quality of traffic with the first 130,000 impressions you would get with Adwords - it's no comparison. Matthew Woodward blogs about SEO, Facebook (sometimes), and plenty of other topics that IM'ers drool over.

      Oh, pro-tip: If you do consider using BuySellAds.com make sure you look closely at the ad placement on the site. Some of the cheaper ads seem like a great idea at only $50 for 30days on a site with 1Mil+ impressions, but nobody will see your ad if it's stuffed in the bottom corner of the footer... CPM is the best model for the highest quality ads in my experience.

      Ciao!

    I have never sold these services so can only answer from a customer point of view. I would go to fiverr.com or here on the warrior forum if I wanted to buy these services.

    I think you can get good traffic for those type of services advertising on IM related blogs.

    You can find blogs within this niche, and advertise in them. Use sites like buysellads.com to find these blogs. Create high converting banners and go from there

    I hope this helps!

    Cheers!

    I looked at adwords and they don't allow these type of sites under their policy as consider it spam. From the policy:

    "Spamming social network sites: sites that spam social network sites to inflate a site's ranking or popularity"

    Anyway, sounds like buysellads will be a better ROI.

    Google adwords it could be great source of traffic for your service but there are many services offering the same stuff so the bid will be high.

    I suggest you create custom audience and then advertise on facebook
    Also you can use forums as your traffic source while testing your paid ads.

    the hardest thing in this type of services i believe is to find the right audience to target.

    Google doesn't allow these types of services to advertise on its network. See my earlier post.

    Would be great to advertise on FB but I really doubt they will allow a site advertising paid likes.

    Google adwords is the best Platform but you should First get specific Keywords so as not to make a broad Keywords list and lose your money
