I have taken up this offer and after only one day i am having problems, am all v confused the layout is v poor and confusing, while i have had 30 hits in the first day i set a limit of £10 per day as it is pay per click and when i look at my first openin page it says these hits have cost £80 ????, so obviously emailed them and as i expected no response,

If u are desperate for hits then i am sure this works but i am not sure at wot cost, it could prove v expensive depending on wot keywords u have some words are v cheap to have as keywords some v expensive, so if u try it i would suggest selecting a few keywords that are v cheap and if u are countin on any support from google i dont think thats gonna happen the help was wrong when i was checking for wot i wanted and they simply dont answer ur emails

After being notified by 'sheffbloke' We must stress that if you do decide to go ahead with the Goole adwords programme; be careful and read all of the small print. Especially parts relating to 'daily budgets' as you can use up credit.

I'm sure given time it could prove to be a valuable source of advertising. However, as with everything it's best to cover yourself by reading as much info as possible.

Thanks to Sheffbloke for informing us!

Check your bid price on the keyword, its very easy to make a mistake and enter £1.00 instead of £0.10 and with a max bid per click of upto £50.00 it could be an expensive mistake to make.

Daily budgets are averaged over a 30 period.. so if u set a limit of £10 per day.. individual days will be under and over but u wont go over £300 in the month...

if u do Google will actually credit you the difference..

Of all of the pay-per-click services out there Google is by far the simplest to use. The information isnt as clear as it perhaps could be.. but it is there..

Thanks for that info Xslippy.

I anyone else has anything to add please don't hesitate
