ARE YOU NEW TO PPC SEARCH advertising? I take a teaching approach, educating clients how to follow PPC best practices, whether they want to just better follow their search activity, or ultimately run their own PPC campaigns.

REMEMBER, IT'S ADVERTISING FIRST, PPC SECOND. The immutable laws of advertising, refined over a century, still apply. Make the ad compelling, be honest, and never think you can "trick" the system or the target audience. Google aggressively looks for and disables what it considers "bad ads," so make sure you don't get swept into the net inadvertently.
