Are You Making Money Through Adwords?

You also have to count on your competitors clicking your ad maliciously, driving up your cost and pushing you out of the bidding.

The best way to go about it is to do rev share and to bid on many low ranking keywords.

I do not care who my competitors would be I would never go as low as clicking on their ads, that is taking it a little too far in my eyes.

I have set up an account with them and promote my gambling products. It works very well for certain niche keywords. It is all about trying it out finding the right angle to meet your ROI. But I agree that you need to be willing to spend some money before you will see a proper return. General gambling keywords like ‘roulette’ or ‘online casino’ can go up as far as Euro 18 per click.

Yep. I’ve run a few campaigns on google adwords. All the time you notice on your google analystics the same people clicking daily. My guess would be competitors making the clicks. Either way it blows your budget.

Surly Google would see the same IP address and not charge you for the clicks? Will they have nothing in place to spot things such as this?

Google and most other ppc networks do have click fraud prevention measures but if a competitor is determined and evil enough they can get round it unfortunately.
