You won't get canned just for a single click, but if you're like me and tweak your site a lot it's only a matter of time before you click on one of those things by accident.

The way I keep this from happening is I temporarily block domain name Google's ads are served from. Once I'm finished editing my site I go back under hood and turn it back on.

Getting this setup will take you less than a minute.

First, find your HOSTS file.

Open Notepad. Go to File, and Choose Open.

If you have Windows 95, 98, or ME browse to folder "C:windows"

If you have Windows XP Home browse to folder "C:windowssystem32driversetc"

A pay per click advertising campaign is easy to start. You will open an account and deposit some money as a starting balance with search engine company that you are advertising with. To start you enter your site's URL, title and description and bid on relevant keywords. A site selling jewlery would bid on keywords such as, "jewelry," "gold jewelry," "silver jewlery" etc.

When someone searches for "jewlery" details of your site appear, in form of a search result with URL, title and description you entered. If they then click on your listing, your account is debited amount you have bid on that keyword.

What makes this so effective is that someone who has searched for your product is already qualified when they come to your site, which is selling product or service they are looking for.

It is important that your keywords are relevant and link to page that contains information relating to that keyword.

Also be sure and only bid on keywords for minimum bid amount when you are first starting. Generally you can bid as low as .05 cents on lesser searched keywords. This strategy makes it more affordable for you as you learn how to use pay per click advertising more profitably. It will take you more keywords to get traffic you want, but it will cost you less.
