After the two weeks of prelaunch videos, PPC Classroom is now finally live and taking orders. There were issues yesterday, the 14th. When I tried to order, it failed. It turned out they had website and order taking issues.

By 9PM, I was able to complete my order. I’m now a student!

So far, I can see that the course has good value; they are spread over 9 modules. They range from market research, to how to best gather keywords, to finally going live with your campaign.

If you are quick, you will also pickup over $1000+ worth of bonus from PPC Classroom. They give you a pack of 6 landing page templates. A tool that generates the Google Adword Ad. And a few others.

You can also optin for the Niche Detective monthly. When I signed in last night, the basis of that is available, but the content is not live yet… Hopefully it should soon.

You can also pickup the free PPCClassroom live event in California later this year. The cost is a refundable $99 deposit.

In the past, I have reservations about PPC; given that people has loss their shirts to the now famous Goolge Slap. But having tried SEO and social marketing, I’m giving this PPC a try. It’s one of the fastest and most targeted ways of getting traffic to your site.

Sure, you could do article marketing and do it for free. But it takes time and effort! And can you write?

On the other hand, you can start a PPC campaign and within 10 to 15 minutes have traffic coming in. Of course, this assumes that you have done the proper keyword traffic research before hand.

Anyways, go check out the page and decide if this is for you.

Discover the Secrets of a $2.4M PPC Affiliate

This is a pre-launch series of free videos that Anik Singal is holding.

On October 14th, 2008, Affiliate Classroom will launch a new classroom called PPC Classroom. The video of the first interview was released last week, and based on the comments on the their blog, it rocks! I’ve never used PPC before but I learned a few points in the first video that make me seriously consider PPC as a traffic source.

In the next few days and weeks leading up the October 14th launch date, more videos will be released. Can’t wait. Anik promised that this wouldn’t be a high price offer.

If you ever thought about doing PPC (pay per click), then you need to optin to listen to these videos. Even if you don’t buy the product, you will get valuable information from these free videos.

If you are not aware, there’s free traffic and then there’s paid traffic. Both have their good and bad points. With each, you would have to consider the Time vs Money trade offs. Sure, free traffics like articles, forum posting, social media, social networking, SEO, and others are free to do. They are effective. However, you have to spend time and efforts on them in order to see results.

On the other hand, PPC or pay traffic is very targeted traffic. Sure, you have to pay for it… But you see immediate traffic, sometimes after only 10 minutes in activating your compaign. Some of the risks include losing your shirts due to the now infamous Google Slap. However there are ways to around that. If you keep your quality score up on your landing page and your content targeted to the keywords, you will see immediate results! And sometimes you spent only a little bit of money.

The instructor of this PPC Classroom, Amit has been through it! He has made millions last year with PPC. Now he is sharing the tips and tricks that he has learned in a classroom style teaching. And for Anik Singal to associate with Amit, it speaks volumes as to how good the information in the year long classroom instructions would be.

So check out the free videos that PPC Classroom is releasing. You will love them! Serious…

I’ve just got home from a live 2 days event in Long Island, NYC. Originally, this started as Two Sides of Traffic: PPC and social marketing. Then to Three Sides of Traffic. Finally, there was Four Sides of Traffic. The fourth edition includes a look at the old and tried method of offline marketing – Direct Mail; which was the form of marketing done before there was Internet Marketing.

The presenters included Howie Schwartz, Simon Leung, Ross Goldberg, Lee and Robin Collins. This event was held to benefit a non-profit charity.

I was simply blown away by the amount of contents these guys/gals provided.

Ross Goldberg presented the best ways of utilizing the latest craze – social media and social bookmarking.

Simon Leung gave insider’s view inside how best to improve Google Adwords quality score.

Howie Schwartz is the master at simplifying and evaluating to see if a niche is profitable and how best to position your content to your customers.

And Lee and Robin Collins provided an overview of their Hybrid Marketing System which is a marriage of marketing online and offline.

There’s also two live ustream.tv feeds of approximately 40 minutes each day of the two days event.
