Looking to expand my online business, and I basically have an unlimited budget. Does anyone recommend a place to start? Maybe coaching specifically for creating successful PPC campaigns and learning the basics to even advanced aspects of PPC?

Let me know!

Thanks,
Rob

Why don't you try Adsense? Avoid traffic exchange providers, or spent some funds on them and then compare it with the Adsense in terms of sales and effectiveness.

Stick to top tier search when starting, normally Bing is easier to work w/ than adwords when dealing with editors and getting cheaper clicks. The downside is their reporting is less than lackluster though.

If you mean starting with PPC, I would recommend to hire an expert if you don't know how to do it. If you try it yourself, you may just lost money. But if you hire an expert, they will do all the work for you, and they know how to compete in Adwords.

You can see PPC experts in oDesk, Elance and other outsourcing platforms.

  I suggest you to do it yourself. Do not spend your money, you are newbie and you need your money for your future works. Companies hire experts not newbies.
  You can learn it easily, Try to do these yourself. keep your money, Spend money just for learning!

  There are numerous companies that offer pay per click advertising programs, and each of their terms and conditions are slightly different. For example, some of them allow you to write just about anything you want in your actual ads, while others are very strict about ad content. In addition, some pay per click advertising programs are much more successful than others. Before signing up with any of them, you should do some research to see which programs have the best reputations for helping website operators turn clicks into sales.

Facebook Ads is a great place to start. Then branch off to Adcenter then Adwords.

Unlimited budget....really? Well adwords has the best conversions in my opinion for the PPC game. Although you have to k now what you're doing or you'll lose your shirt. Start with small campaign...meaning 3 keywords per campaign. Don't stuff 1000 keywords in one ad and expect to do well. Also use tracking.

Gauher Chandry payperclick formula is really good at using PPC...he is the master.

  If you don't go the professional route then definitely get a good handle on your goals and hopefully have a bunch of intermediate steps you can track to give you feedback data.
  
  If you are going straight from click to sale then Facebook PPC is probably not your best media to use. If you are going to do lead gen then it is highly effective. The number of targeting options that they give you is amazing. It is a great platforms with tons of available traffic.
  
  Adwords is still a great game to play ... there is a learning curve with all PPC which will cost you some $$ in testing but when you master it you achieve some level of independence in your business.
  
  You basically have a license to print money once you have a highly optimized PPC conversion funnel ... you want more profits you turn up the dial on your PPC campaigns.
  
  It is worth every minute you will invest learning how to do it right.
  
  Thanks

Hi RobHiness,

The best way to learn is to get yourself Google Adwords Certified. It forces you to learn everything. Google has hundreds of pages worth of study material. It's better than what you'll get buying some course that guarantees success. There are no shortcuts or tricks in PPC. I work in competitive industries where first page CPC ranges from $2-$7.

Also try Brad Geddes' blog, he's a big partner of Google and sticks with what they say.

PPC Hero is also a good blog.
