1. Set-up your account with the Adword's Wizard. A beginner will find it easy to set-up a google adwords account using the wizard. The wizard will show you the basics of all your account management tools.

2. Write a convincing ad. Effective ads contain certain elements that are arranged in a particular format. The format is as follows: Use your keyword or keyphrase in your ads' headlines. Include a benefit in your second line and state a special promo or feature in the third line. Lastly, do not forget to place your landing page's URL in the fourth line. This format is already a time-tested strategy endorsed by known Adwords authorities such as Perry Marshall, author of "The Ultimate Guide to Google Adwords" and Peter Kent, author of "Pay Per Click Search Engine Marketing for Dummies".

3. Search for the right keywords. You need to have the right keywords and/or keyphrases that will attract your market to your site. Google offers a solid keyword selector tool that will allow you to dig deep and find appropriate keywords for your niche. Utilize this tool as much as possible when creating your campaign or even before building up your website or blog.

4. Learn Keyword Matching. The Google Keyword tool allows you to perform broad matches, phrase matches and exact matches for your keywords in your campaign module. What this essentially does is widen your keywords for a campaign. There is also an option to exclude certain words from your campaign by using the negative match. You may want to do this so that your ads will not run on users' computers who typed in the excluded words.

5. Establish your budget. Google allows adwords users to limit their spending by specifying their budget. Google will automatically deduct balance from your account up to your specified daily budget. Work with a small budget initially and increase it as you gather more data about your campaign. You need to find out which keywords actually lead to a sale and the exact cost you incur for each lead. Once you have enough data, you can then confidently increase your budget.
