From what I've studied(, and lhpay)... NL would improve your site rankings on alexa and locally... But since and stopped NL ads their rankings dropped... If you want to boost your local rankings use NL... Note: I've never used NL ads or adwords... |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by Nobody: 11:58pm On Jan 03, 2015 |
GodMode: Totally Wrong. If rank decrease isn't because of NL ad, but because of traffic. The guy didn't do something unique. He did almost a clone of Nl which is not advisable. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 12:43am On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode:uhmm... I actually don't care much about alexa ranking. my concern is the traffic, would NL give me more traffic than google? 1 Like |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 1:06am On Jan 04, 2015 |
TheWholeTruth:eeerm... what's your advice/take on the topic, I neesld to know the best |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 5:09am On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: If your concern is traffic then look for other sites in your niche that get more traffic than u then advertise on those sites.. Google ads is based on keywords. You'll have to choose a popular keyword with high amount of searches... Advertising on google requires research. But if your sole concern is to make your site popular. Then advertise on social media... |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 5:21am On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode:the google ad am actually talking of is not those ones that appear on google search, am talking of those that appear on adsense ppc ads. about the social media adverts, if I choose to advertise on Facebook, what am I advertising; the Facebook page ofy site or the site itself. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 7:07am On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: Facebook can do both. But its better to get lots of page likes and followers on social media. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by Nobody: 7:26am On Jan 04, 2015 |
For a start, use nairaland ads... . Google adwords is also credible but i advise you use both. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 7:52am On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode:hmm... Facebook seems promising, what I don't know about Facebook is, the likes it generates is targeted for my niche. not when I operate a tech site or so, and I get people who are business oriented liking my page. it won't yield positive result. do you know Facebook pricing? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 7:58am On Jan 04, 2015 |
coolsix:hmm... I'd choose to use NL but on NL once the ad is running your money is going wether you get a click or not but with google you get charged per click. this is the reason I wanted those who have used/tried the both of them to share their experience. well am going with one of them n Facebook |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 8:48am On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: $0.01 per like but it depends on the people you are targeting and how you configure it. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 9:16am On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode:wow...wow. mehn... it seems there's a lot I need to learn about this Facebook ads. could you please explain the targeting n configuration z little cos I'll like to give it a shot with a $10 test and see how it goes |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by Nobody: 9:34am On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: Yes, that's one issue about Nairaland, whether you get a click or not, your money is deducted but Nairaland has good traffic and it's truly targeted unlike Google adwords, Your ads display on Any site, for example, a Web hosting site advertising via Google and ads display on a music site via adsense .. What traffic do you expect from such site? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 9:43am On Jan 04, 2015 |
coolsix:hmm.. yea yea... google adwords traffic is not targeted at all... well. I'll forget both(NL n google) of them for now and focus on Facebook and maybe later return to NL. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 10:28am On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: When u create a facebook ad.. reduce the CPC(Cost Per Click) to $0.01 before you submit your ads.. make sure you read the instructions carefully... cos the CPC is not in a place u can easily see it. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 11:46am On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode: ok. thanks a lot. but this particular ad you're talking of now is it the one for Facebook page like or direct advertising if the site? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by teamup: 12:00pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
guys I will not advice Nl advert I paid for a week ad on Nl for my blog and I only receive 2click |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 12:20pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
teamup:bwahahahahaha.. sorry I don't mean to ridicule. but this is what am avoiding... I don't want to pay n get zero click mehn.. that's too bad but is the ad for the site on your signature? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 1:18pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: I used it for page likes. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 2:28pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode:ok. does that mean I'll be charged $0.01 for each Facebook like generated from the ad? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by Nobody: 2:44pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: Thanks for clarifying your objective: that is, you just want traffic/clicks. But then BOTS can also deliver clicks (although I'm guessing you may not like bots clicking away at your site!) Seriously, take a closer look at the niche you're working in. Remember you're actually targeting REAL human beings. Who is your target audience? Where is your target audience more likely to see your offer? WHY should they click on your offer? When you answer these questions, you'll make a more informed decision rather than mere guesswork. Cheers! |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 3:11pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: Yes... |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 3:19pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
alignacademy:actually, why I don't care much about alexa ranking is, alexa ranking is sh¡tty(don't bother to know why or how) most def I won't like bots clicking. its very annoying that's why am looking at google from a positivr angle, cos google adsense bans any website user that makes use of bots to generate clicks. so now, what's your take? that I go with NL? or what? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by Nobody: 3:26pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
My moniker says it all. Clear throat.... I have placed many ads on NL and one thing is still unclear to me. I do track visitors from NL ad and they behave funny. Have you asked yourself, why is there no comments on threads. If you think deeper you will understand what I meant. I wouldn't want to go further to avoid the unknown. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 3:26pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
GodMode:wow. then I've got to get started. but does this same method also work with everyother ad, like promotion/advertising of website(not page), promotion post? |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 3:27pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
TheWholeTruth: to avoid ban. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by Nobody: 3:28pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: Said by who, Google Adwords is more targeted than Nairaland. Do you think it's only Nigerians that access Nairaland Google display ads by IP address and Web page content while NL doesn't. |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by GodMode: 3:32pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
henryobinna: I haven't tried it with links or websites.. The method is about trying your best to reduce CPC on your ads... |
Re: Nairaland ADS Or Google Adwords Which Is Better by henryobinna(m): 3:36pm On Jan 04, 2015 |
TheWholeTruth:now you don't get what I meant. on so many blogs lemme say tech blogs you see political sh¡t from adsense, tell me what kind of targeting is that? google's targeting is only basec on location mean while my targeting is based on intereste of which NL does if you place your ad on a section that its relevant to |
