adwords dilemma

cutts

Hi, I have been using adwords for a while, changed the text format numerous times, revised keywords until I cant think straight, and yet my click performance is sitting at around 0.04% of impressions. I have also tried to stay very relevant so as to not pay for wanted clicks.
Is this type of response usual?
Any tips for maximising adwords hits.
thanks

Hello:It`s difficult to know why your adwords are not performing, but here is an interesting tip I came across for building your e-mail list through your adwords, and then following up over time, which essentially means that you can contact people without paying for as many clicks, and hopefully, your conversion rates will go up: http://adwordprofitsoft.blogspot.com/20 ... e-adwords- as-list-building-tool.htmlHope that helps,Andrew Darlow

Chances are you are citing the figures from a kind of "forecast" that is based on former stats. Such stats may be very vague when the sample is as small as in your case. Also factor in that rounding to integrals can cause some minor surprise too. (clicks)

"Why for $90 extra there's only 9 extra impressions?"

That may happen due to lack of extra interest from users. Capping is reinforced by the fact that figures do not change as you raise the budget from $1k to $10k.
