Hey everyone,
I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this question, but what are some of the best PPC networks for advertising ebooks? (Mostly natural health ebooks)

I used to have good success with Google Adwords but one day, completely out of the blue, they banned my entire account even though I had 10/10 quality scores throughout.

Btw, Google Adwords people told me they think my business model creates an unsatisfactory user experience. My business model is simply long copy.

What are some of the other PPC networks I could use?

Thanks!

  • you can use MIVA, 7search, Ask

    they are still good and you will pay less. the problem is that the traffic may not be targeted.

    Microsoft also offer programs like Adwords but it is not the best one.

    You can choose any adult related program as well.

    I think Adbrite and Bidvertiser are good alternatives for Adwords. Try them.

    Hello Mr Mojo Risin (I now have that spectacularly wonderful song stuck in my head so thanks for that!)

    I would be glad to share with you ways in which 7Search.com could become a very viable supplemental source of traffic for you and your business. Our average CPC for first position across my network is under $0.20 and we are currently generating over 3.5 billion searches per month. You also have the ability to see bids and other advertisers as part of our transparency.

    For the month of October we are running a promo where we will add $75 to any new acct that funds for our minimum of $25. If you are interested please email me bstanley at 7search dot com and we can discuss further. If you set up an account please select my name Brad Stanley. I do not make a commission but it allows me to better serve you.

    In all honesty, Google Adwords is the best PPC program out there. Google is in the business of search, and they want you to have the most targeted traffic so they can earn money too.

    Yahoo,MSN and Bing offers an adwords-like PPC program if I remember correctly.

    Yes, the second tier search engines like Miva, Ask, 7Search, Findology or what have you offer cheaper PPC for a reason! because they aren't as targeted as Adwords.

    Personally I avoid all those and stick with Adwords.

      It is very wise to use the larger engines because they have a ton of volume. However, some people's budgets don't allow them to be as competitive as the CPC would reflect in some of the bigger engines as opposed to the alternative networks. With Geo Targeting on a country by country level and the ability to add negative keywords, state related keywords as well as the fact that our titles allow for 70 characters and descriptions allow for 190 our advertisers are able to better detail what their business, service or product is in the SERPs.

      It is very wise to use the large engines but one should be careful about putting all their proverbial eggs into one basket. Use our OCT2010 promo to test out our traffic!

    So far (aside AdWords) i have tested miva, 7search and bidvertiser, from the three I would suggest you the latest two (i personally had a nightmare with Miva, the system itself AND the conversion as well).

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers.

      Some large ad networks have PPC campaigns , however sometimes they want money upfront +$500 .
      Have you considered Facebook? they have a pretty decent CPC campaigns that you can really target your audience .

    As others have mentioned, Adwords is the best, bar none. If you've been banned, fix what irks them. It would be a shame to not being able to advertise there with all that potential volume.

    Paul mentioned Microsoft and said it was not the best. I think it's second best. The system is called Adcenter, very similar to Adwords so you should have no problems. Ads on that system are shown on Bing and Yahoo.

    You sell ebooks so I'd give Amazon's system called ClickRiver a try. Seems logical and natural to advertise that sort of product there. You have to be a US citizen however.

    All other ones, well, you just won't get the traffic volume there is on Google or even Bing/Yahoo.

    I just tried qualidid.com and there was cheap traffic around 3 cents per click. But no conversions. So far 450 clicks and no impressions to the purchase page. Looks like i found a looser here.
