Ultimate Guide to Pay-Per-Click Advertising cover

Millions compete for exposure on Google and Bing but 99% of them fail to get results. As the founder of leading digital intelligence firm AdGooroo, search advertising authority Richard Stokes is in a unique position to reveal what's going wrong and provide solutions to fix it. Using proven strategies from today's search advertising elite, discover how to drive significantly more traffic to your site, dramatically increase click-through rates, steal impressions from competitors, boost your conversions, and increase your sales by unbelievable amounts. Since the previous edition, there have been a number of revolutionary changes in paid search. First, we are increasingly searching from our cell phones rather than desktop computers. Second, Google is no longer the only game in town. Bing now accounts for 30 percent of all U.S. searches. Finally, "search extensions" have become a powerful new technique you can use to collect phone numbers and email addresses with your ads, limit your ads to certain times of day, deliver coupons to nearby customers, and even provide handy "call me" buttons that are displayed only on cell phones. In this new edition, Stokes details all this and more.

Wherever you are in your pay-per-click journey and your evolution as an entrepreneur or marketing professional, I wish you the very best of success. You've already done more than most people will do: You've picked up an excellent book by a world-class expert. So you deserve it. Now, sit at Richard's feet and hear what wisdom he has to share. -Perry Marshall, author of Ultimate Guide to Google AdWords and 80/20 Sales and Marketing This book reveals the inner workings of the search ad networks without using tea leaves and crystal balls. Instead, it focuses on the few strategic metrics that make a difference, and backs them up with valid data from real campaigns. It's the first book I've read that made me feel I could take data-driven action to improve my search advertising campaigns. Most importantly, I now know something that other search marketers don't. --Brian Massey, author of Your Customer Creation Equation This is required reading for any online marketer who wants to be in the 1% of successful search engine marketers. What Richard says is right on the money and has led my own clients to realize 3X to 5X sales growth in a matter of months on mature campaigns that had been 'optimized' and managed previously by other agencies. --Kevin Milani, VP of Digital Marketing, Virtual Marketing Staff LLC Brilliant insights.
