I am in a position in which I am willing to get into PPC.

I just have one problem though, I have no idea how to track the winning keywords and the loser keywords when the sales do come in. Do I have to use some sort of software or something?

-- I've heard about the google conversion tracking ID and all but no idea what to do with it--

I'm going to have a simple landing page, reviewing products from clickbank.

I would definitely appreciate if someone helps or recommends a course or something that teaches pcc conversion tracking

Thanks

    I don't mean to be impolite but based on your post you don't seem to be ready to try AdWords... I can assure you that Google won't tolerate a landing page reviewing ClickBank's products.

    You can use the Google Conversion Tracking code. But if you want a lot more accuracy, look up Prosper202.

      Hey jpaissa27,

      Prosper202 is a great way to track your PPC campaigns. You get some really good data and it's pretty easy to learn.

      Since Prosper202 is open source software there are several affiliates that have added some cool mods to it. And best of all Prosper202 is FREE.

      I took a few of the available mods and created a new install package. Feel free to check it out... Prosper202 1.6.1 Modded Version

      Now Prosper202 installs and runs on your server. But it's not too hard to install and there are several videos on YouTube that walk you through the install process.

      The Tracking202 guys offer a few videos on how to use it too. So everything you need is available.

      Overall Prosper202 is an excellent tracking software. It's has it's drawbacks, but doesn't everything?

      I hope that helps out...

      Thanks,

      Derek
