    How much is the cost per click and how much profit do you make per sale?

    How many clicks does it take for you to convert into a sale?

    Do you have any backend sales or just one sale per customer?

    Answer those questions and plug it into a calculator and you will have your answer.

      This is some great advice. Know your numbers and then continually test and optimize your campaign, keywords and landing pages. Yes its possible to make ongoing money with adwords selling your ebook.

    Fraid the only way you'll ever truly know is to just do it and see.

    Another place I've had some success promoting an ebook of mine was posting it on digitalpoint forums. I only made 2 sales but it was still an extra $50.

      In my experience, Adwords is really only good for getting a short "burst" of traffic for testing.

      Find your budget, send yourself X amount of traffic, see how it converts.

      Even still, Adwords is usually just way over the top in terms of pricing. There's a thousand ways to get traffic to your web site.

      p.s. - if you're patient and want cheaper clicks, make yourself a banner (image ad) and wait the week or so for Google to approve it - then stick it on the content network. You can end up with 1 to 3 cent clicks. It works but you need to be sure you run your campaigns well (one keyword per campaign, focus on good content sites, etc)

    You have to take risks on the internet and if your ebook is well researched then why not. My advice would be to start off slow and don't spend money on advertising it initially. Instead get free backlinks from do follow blogging and forum posting, press releases and article directory submission.

    Why don't you try creating a website and marketing it yourself.There is so much information out on the web about article marketing, adding your product to clickbank and having others sell it as an affiliate product. Do some research on selling your product unless you have money to burn.
