Alternative to PPC.

[start11]

I have lost much on ppc,tried all tactics from many adwords training books,but the competetion now is so fierce that you cannot stand if you dont possess large money to test out.Rather i swifted to building free blogs and doing seo for less competetive terms and results are much better than PPC.Got 11 sales last week, i holded out my ears for PPC and now my blog building and seo is in Beta stage.

11 sales in a week?
Wow, thats impressive, just stick to developing what you did to achieve that feat.
SEO is a better alternative to PPC advertising but the benefits of SEO are derived on the long run.
Just keep it up lol.

The only other alternative to PPC is direct website advertising. If you find a good site that will sell you a banner at a reasonable rate, it can very worthwhile.

I've had a lot of success with PPC but I imagine that is because I sell very large services so I can spend up to $1 per click. It can be really tough selling products at $24.99 and under.

Why not try social media and seo, you can get tons of traffic if done right

What works for us might not work for you, so it is advisable to experiment on all strategies and choose what works best. PPC works fine for me since I've been doing this for years and I know how to handle PPC accounts effectively.

Why not try pay per view advertising like
Trafficvance...

PPV is said to be the next big thing in advertising... since PPC is all crowded this is a nice option..

I tried to set up a squeeze page using Bidvista ppc and the results were not good. The traffic i received end up being way of target.

I would continue with your seo / blogging

Very nice.

Free sites and SEO are a good way for starting but they require much time and effort. Plus, it is a relatively slow process.

[john324]

People use ppc for quickness, but it is more costly and the results can actually be harder for you to make money.

Having your own website where you do your own SEO can cost cheaply and the result therefore can mean just a handful of sales can get you into profit, whereas PPC could mean you could get daily sales, but with such a high budget, you still may not break even. You have to watch your ROI far more when it comes to PPC.

Solo Ads are good advertising options and in this way a web master will get more traffic.

There is an alternative choice to PPC advertising which is called forum advertising. The name speaks for itself, you advertise through forums. How to do forum advertising? It's quite simple. While you participate in discussions, you could make use of the forum signature or resource box for free forum advertising. This resource box may include a link to your web site alongside a brief description to attract more people to your page.

Seo is better than PPC. You can drive traffic to your website for free. You can make blogs and put a link to your website. You can also submit quality articles. Hope this helps!

[LocalFlipFormula]

Use the content network, or go to one of the other PPC networks other than the 3 main ones.

You can attempt to put more $$ into SEO and in the longrun perhaps pay less than you would have for PPC ROI, but a more direct alternative would be buying traffic, or media buys (banners, text links) on other related websites in hopes of referral traffic that converts.

[Domenic Carlson]

Pay per click is by its definition within your budget since you set the budget. Just don't bid on very competitive keywords. There are still plenty to go around - long-tail-wise. You can get a conversion rate of under $20 relatively easily (depending on the industry) so just make sure that your profit per sale is more than that and you're all set.
