How Does This Business Model Works?

[JessyMeyer]

I just found a video about an interesting business model to earn money from home with websites, but i didn't really understand how i can earn money if i don't sell any products or offer any services on my website. There is something about Ads they buy/invest, but i didn't get it.

Has anyone done this before or do u have any experience in this field?

Many thanks in advance,
Jessica

Oh yes, I searched on youtube.com for “iiab” it was the third or fourth result with the blond woman talking. The website was a little bit confusing at iiab.com

Sounds like they're talking about arbitrage.

Basically, you buy Pay Per Click advertising (such as AdWords) for "cheap" keywords to drive traffic to your site. On your site, you've created landing pages that focus on related, but more expensive, keywords. You load those pages with contextual advertising (such as AdSense).

The idea is that when visitors land on these pages, enough of them will click on the (expensive keyword) contextual ads to cover the cost of the (cheap keywords) PPC advertising, plus give you a profit.

If you're very very skilled with it, arbitrage can -- in theory -- work, at least for a time. I know of people who claim they've made money with it. But as PPC keywords keep going up in price, it gets harder and harder to pull off.

And it's risky. If you aren't as good at it as you think you are, or if you just get unlucky, or the market shifts more quickly under you than you anticipate, it can cost you a whole pile of money really, really fast.

Besides the risks, which are great, most of these arbitrage programs are out and out scams.

In my opinion, you should run away from this program as fast as you can.

Caveat emptor!

Thank you Torka and David for the quick answer and explanations. I found a couple of further information about this model and i am a little bit confused now. Some people and blogger wrote, it can be risky other say they were very successful. I'll test the trial on the weekend maybe.

Thanks and greetings,
Jessica

Hello Jessy:
If you will enter in this business model you would be aware of having enough experience with AdWords to promote your own website, you could use some special handbooks for it!
Good Luck

I know there are some ways to earn money, but I’ve been thinking about offering some of my lawyer services. I’ve read this one is a way to offer… something! I’m not really sure, but not services neither products. Now I have three more lawyers working for me, but I want to make my business something real and important. Is this a way to promote my business? Thank you for your help.

[JessyMeyer]

Thanks all!
I couldn't find the time now, but will start the free trial account soon to get first impressions.
Cheers,
Jessica

Hi Philip, i hardly suggest you post this as a new thread so others could be able to help you more. I'm sorry I don't have enough insight regarding your question to answer it myself.

And Jessica, scams are proliferate and I hope you choose wisely. I have stumbled upon a forum discussing adsense and adwords maybe researching there would help.
