Paid $31,000 on Paid Search Engine Keywords as a Test

A $31,000 Lesson on Paid Search

For the past few weeks, I’ve been toying with paid search at our e-commerce businesses.  We’ve always had great success with organic search and, in many cases, dominate our keywords leading to terrific sales at a very low cost.  However, with paid search, we weren’t as familiar with the mechanics and the best way to get a high conversion rate. We approved a budget to test out the process and learn in a trial-by-error format.
