Advertising on Linked In

[seaninog]

I have a product that has a niche, professional audience. Among the strategies I am employing to market it I am seeking to buy email marketing lists, advertising on Google with PPC and I have also decided that having my adverts show beside certain Linked In groups *might* be an avenue too. The fact that Linked In randomly emailed me yesterday with $50 free adverts sealed the deal!

So I've now set up a Linked in campaign but I have no idea if it's any good so ideally I'd like an expert to look over it and make suggestions - you know just like the many Google/Bing PPC experts that are out there - but I can't seem to find anyone with specific Linked In ads expertise.

Any one know anyone who might be able to help?

Thanks Frank. For sure like all PPC stuff you have to be careful and for my product Linked in recommended a range of $2.01 to £2.50 so I've gone in the middle as my MAX bid.

Two days in I've had 11,000 impressions and not a single click.

This is why I need help...

Oh, and despite what you might think - having some well-targeted Yell.com ads backlinked to my website also drove in a huge amount of traffic. Yell is a very active site that Google seems to like a lot in terms of driving traffic to your site and upping you in search rankings.

Interesting. I had always dismissed Yell.com but in your advice I will look again. Thank you.

BTW, now 12,000 impressions, no clicks. But I think I've got someone who knows LinkedIn to have a look and they will probably do so next week. If anyone is interested I'll let you now how I get on.
