So how does Google Adwords work?

The Google Adwords program is a PPC, a pay per click program. It combines the use of an ad with a title and text for a product or your website. You can write your own ad or have Google write it for you. Many people prefer to write their own ad, as it is simple to do and you can display exactly what you want. You will need your ads to consist of top keywords that are important to your website. The ranking in a Google Adwords program is based on how many times a person clicks on your ad. The CTR, click through rate, is the life or death of your ad on Google Adwords.

Does it cost to place an ad with Google Adwords?

Yes, the cost depends on what you are willing to pay for a CPC, a cost per click. If you have done a good keyword search before you write your ad then it is possible to use those keywords that will help your site and the ad will cost you less. Overall, it will cost you less because you have targeted your keywords to create an ad that draws in customers that will buy your products. Remember the less you are willing to pay for good keywords, the lower your ads will appear on the computer screen.

What else can you do to remain in the top rankings besides having good relevant keywords?

It is a good idea to maintain your listing often. You need to consider that you will be in competition with other websites that use PPC and there might be times that you will have to adjust what you pay for your ad. Finding relative keywords does take some work on your part. So, others that have found the relative keywords first, in order to bump out competition, are willing to pay a higher click through premium.
