Came across this interesting and useful new site the other day and wanted to share it with you in the event that you aren’t aware of it. It’s called “Ask the PPC Experts” and is a place where anyone can send in a question about pay-per-click advertising in general or some specific aspect of their campaign that needs some tweaking and receive an answer from an actual, real, live expert. Obviously, questions may be submitted and only legitimate ones make the grade. Answers are not provided in real-time, but will be posted to the site once an expert has considered the question and framed an appropriate answer. Questions can only be 500 characters long so apply your editing skills accordingly and you (obviously) need to supply an email address, but other than those limitations, it’s free and easy.
The experts involved include people from Marin Software, SearchEngineWatch, and ClickZ.com. The site is located at www.paidsearchexperts.com and comes to us via the folks at Incisive Media, who are responsible for all kinds of good stuff, including Search Engine Strategies (coming up in New York in March — get a 20% discount on registration via coupon code SMS20 as a valued Search Marketing Standard reader), so you know it’s going to be info that you really can use and apply.
And actually, the site is offering a FREE pass to SES NY for the “toughest question asked before March 5, 2010.” Put on your thinking caps and get to work and you may win a free pass to SES, as well as the answer to a PPC question that you have longed for the answer to.
