Why is running a profitable Google Adwords campaign so difficult even for experienced marketers? Two closely related factors seem to be the primary culprits. Competition for many key phrases has become intense. Bids of $5 or more for each click through are common for the most competitive (and presumably lucrative) phrases. The second factor is Google's unique way of determining the rank for ads. Click through rate is given the same weight as the amount bid. Because of this, appealing ads by your competitors may get top positions even if you've outbid them.

Not everyone is intimidated by Google Adwords. Perry S. Marshall, author of �The Definitive Guide To Google Adwords� describes himself as �... one of a tiny handful of experts on this new advertising medium.� Marshall makes extensive use of Adwords to advertise his own products and services, and he also runs campaigns for clients, so he writes based on experience rather than untested theory.
