The Adwords was unsuccesful at conversion rates. To get 145 clicks from Adwords, it would cost at least $0.15 each for the keywords that are relavent. If the clicks could be bought for $0.05 each, then 145 clicks would cost $7.25 and 11 orders would for sure make up for that expense. The conversion of clicks from Adwords to my site and then from my site to Amazon is probably less than 50% also. This would bring the costs up to around $16 to get 145 clicks to Amazon. It would make out to be about even. There would be little profit. I would say about 60% bounce after visiting it. It is difficult to obtain $0.05 clicks from Adwords, however. If I were to stuff tens of thousands of keywords and bid $0.05 Max Cost-per-click, then it could profit. Note: A lot of the 145 clicks did not come from Adwords for this experiment. I placed ads on several of my websites and Facebook applications.

Popular Baby Toys Blog

I was playing around with the Amazon Affiliates Program and made a blog about baby items. This was just an experiment to see if it makes money. I am investing a dollar a day for Ads on Adwords by Google targeting the "baby toys" keywords. I'm going to let this sit there for about two months (max. $60) to see if I make at least the same or more from the Amazon Product links.

Google AdWords Keyword Generation

It is possible to generate keywords for AdWords on the fly. There is a sample keyword generation tool for adwords that can generate a list of keywords. This could be extended to list the keywords and map them to certain pages. It could make a list of keywords for example, that would send to a certain link which performs a search query to better direct the user to the correct page. This would better than doing it by hand because it could be done with a large number of keywords. AdWords limits the number of keywords per ad campaign, but many ad campaigns can be created with each type of ad that links to a certain location on the fly. With the script, it could be possible to generate 10,000 keywords with ease. The script is free to use.
