    It really depends on your niche. There's a lot of factors to consider with PPC management and selecting the right networks.

      Hit the nail on the head!

      Google adwords can often be expensive and many struggle to produce a positive ROI. You need to have a good eye on your conversion rates (at every stage of your funnel) and how much a click is worth and this will tell you the true value of the traffic and positive or negative ROI.

      Facebook can be good especially for opt ins and vouchers/coupons or simply to build likes on your Facebook page to grow your audience. Can also be highly targeted.

      Solo ads can work really well to build a list and if you have a high converting autoresponder sales funnel then this can work really well.

      Seriously???

      Are people promoting the use of Google adwords with the internet marketing niche?

      Have you used Google adwords?

      If you're promoting outside the IM niche or fitness then I would say Google and Facebook are fair game.

      I had my google account closed for promoting an IM offer. Google HATES internet marketing. You have to have your ducks in a row to promote anything related to making money online, and they still might shut down your account.

      Google is being quoted as: "Trying to rid the internet [with anything make money related]"

      And recommending a newbie to Facebook ads will ad frustration as well since they are also not keen on the IM niche.

      It's HARD to get your ads approved on Facebook and it can be a grind.

      My advice is to do some research on squeeze pages that are "Google and Facebook friendly" in order to get everything accepted through them.

      Or...

      Start with solo ads. Especially, if you've never bought any traffic before.

      And of course....

      If you're not in the IM niche....

      Then you can ignore my entire rant

      but you would still need to have a 'google friendly' squeeze page if you choose them.

    The best paid ads in my opinion are the ones that have great copy on them that lead to a great lead capture page with great copy, with great free content attached that leads the prospect into a strategic offer sequence.

    It doesn't matter where you advertise if you can write killer copy!

    In my opinion, the best paid traffic source for direct response salespeople like us is direct mail. It's expensive but it works really well if you have a great list and a great ad.

    Google Adwords, Bing, Yahoo or Faebook Ads.
    Other than that try solo ads.
    7 search was not a good one for me when I tried it a while back.

    Your questions is a bit too generic. Different people will get different results from different paid traffic sources. I think the main key thing is to test it out so that you will know the sources that works for you. What works for another person does not mean that it will work for you.

      I totally agree with this. Since 2001 I have tried hundreds of different forms of paid advertising and advertising networks.

      It all depends on what you're marketing, your price points, your marketing funnel(s), etc.

      A lot of people think of PPC when they see the term "paid advertising", but really, it's just a drop in the bucket in the overall paid advertising world (which is growing annually).

      I advise people to Google Jonathan Mizel and learn how to use paid advertising from him, the guy knows what works and what doesn't. If you can't get your ass over to the annual Adtech conferences, he's probably one of the top guys to go to.

    Adwords has been there for a long time, though if you don't have a lot of funds, I wouldn't recommend it, as they are pretty costly. Bind and facebook ads are quite good too. I like how facebook allows you to choose the demographic and so on.

    Other than that, you can do solo ads and media buys too, though you need to be careful while dealing with individuals as there are a lot of scammers who fake their site's traffic and so on. Just make sure the information you get from them is legit before you invest on them.

    I think best quality traffic is PPC(adwords) but it so expensive for for example keywords like: make money online,make money,make money at home.. and of course google don't approve simple squeeze page ,google wants valuable posts,articles,reports in landing page blablabla ... so best option for quality traffic is solo ads.There are many quality and reputable solo ads sellers in warrior forum ,in skype groups,safe swaps,fb groups. The main thing what you must to do before buying solo ads traffic is to check seller.Check his profile,testimonials,reviews from other people .Make sure he is providing quality traffic. With these type of seller you can't go wrong

    Bing is a good all rounder. Not too expensive, more lenient than Adwords and the traffic quality and volume is quite good. 7Search is really cheap but then volume and quality is quite low. However, it is a good starting point for newbies, and people do make money there.

          I agree. I have never had Facebook deny any ad I submitted that goes to one of my squeeze/lead capture pages. Most of the time the ads are approved in less than 30 minutes. I have even had plenty of luck getting ads directly to Clickbank offers approved. I think FB has gotten a lot more lenient with IM because they realize there is lots of money to be made in that for them.

          The best are:
          1. Google adwords (Expensive,steep learning curve strict)
          2. Bing ads (Cheaper than #1 above)
          3.Facebook ads (Cheaper than both 1 and 2, simple user interface, very large audience and targeting abilities)
          4. If you can also learn about PPV, you could try Lead Impact, Trafficvance etc.
          5. Try plenty of fish (POF) advertising if you have the niches that fit there. 9More suitable for dating and some health Niches)
          6.Targeted soloads ( Could easily be scammed if you do not chose a good and honest provider )

          Those would be the best in my opinion.

          Note: If you are a newbie, I would recommend that you first familiarize your self with the traffic source and how it works. The reason being that Paid traffic can easily make you broke if you approach when not ready. Buy WSOs or other products on how to use the above traffic sources effectively before you invest your money in there.

    Niche is best to define what works best like

    if you are site is on Entertainment,Shopping,gifts,foods etc > FB is the best
    For Selling Products,bussiness related,internet services etc > Adwords and Rest PPC Best
    For promoting some sort of Music etc types above two are good but CPM networks would be good too

    So basically it varies from niche to niche what works best.

    Easier way to find what works for you is try it and see

    Adwords and Bing Ads for me.

    Adwords is more hard, because there is much more competition and CPCs are higher. But there is much more traffic and opportunities.

    Bing Ads converts fantastically well! It's cheaper and it's easier to make a profitable campaign for newbies.
