Best Resources For Adwords

Hi,
Does anyone have any resources on Google AdWords? I’ve got a free voucher so might as well spend it.

I’ve got a few apps launching or updatingthis month (possibly) so would be nice to maybe help promote them and maximise the potential.

Thanks

I have written a number of articles on AdWords over the years:

AdWords is complicated, with many moving parts and options. Take the time to learn how it works. I also recommend sticking to search (not display) ads to start with.

This book by Iain Dooley (not free) has been immensely helpful to me in decoding the crappy world of Google advertising.

@TheDaveCollins might also have something else he could share on this, given his inner knowledge of SEO, AdWords and Google.

thanks guys I’ll have a look at those links - I know it might be a bit of a fools errand but free is good yeah?

I took the following course on Udemy and ran a decent campaign with what I learned. My first ever saas customer came from Adwords so that was nice.

@johnf - Udemy says “This is a private course” on that link, for me. Any other way to browse to it?
