Hey Warriors

Just after some advise..

I am running a adwords campaign set to worldwide...

The product i am promoting is in US dollars.. I know this sounds weird why would i have a adwords campaign set to worldwide if i am promoting a product in US Dollars...

Well as you properly know people who buy in US dollars are not only from USA.. ( Myself included 99.9% of my purchases are in US dollars I am not from USA)

So what countries would you never bid on??



And what counties would you mainly target??

USA, Canada, Australia ??



Please Advise Me Further.....
Thankyou

  • It really depends on the product more than anything. For example, if I'm selling hamburgers made of yummy tasty cows, I'm probably not going to bid in India.

  • For my niche (not make money online, seo, weight loss or insurance), I target USA and Canada only.

  • I think which countries to include is a topic of conjecture. I actually get a bunch of sales from weird, random countries.

    But I can tell you with certainty which countries I bid on personally, and this is what I've found to work best.

    For Facebook PPC I typically bid on the following:
    USA, UK, NZ, CAN, AUS

    For any other PPC I ONLY bid on the United States.

    The reason I do this is largely based upon my own personal statistics and what works best for me and the products I promote.

    When experimenting with other PPC sources, I found that any traffic outside USA to be inferior. (Other people have statistics very different from my own. So it's best to test on your own).

  • If my product is based on "Racism" I would definitely won't bid on US.
