PPC Classroom 3.0
Posted by admin on Thursday, October 8, 2009 · Leave a Comment 
I’ve just
heard that PPC
Classroom 3.0 is
to be released in
November and
it’s brought
back the memories.
You see, I’ve
been a member of PPC
Classroom 2.0 last
year.
The reason I had
joined it back then
was because the
videos of Anik
Singal and Amit
Mehta got me hooked.
They talked about
something I knew
only the basic
concepts about
– the PPC and
Adwords. And what
they’ve talked
about, the little
tips they’ve
shared got me
interested enough to
give it a go. I have
to say it was a
smart move in
general, to learn
PPC and I’m
glad I did take
action.
But I’ve
only been in it for
one month. Not
because there was
anything bad with it
– PPC
Classroom had tons
of information, they
held webinars and
I’ve learned a
lot. But the reason
was really the pace
at which they taught
–
they’ve
released one module
per month and that
was definitely too
slow for me. Granted
there was enough
information to learn
the basics and some
advanced tricks in
the first month, I
just didn’t
want to be kept
waiting. Tip of the
hat for making it
easy to cancel
– I
didn’t even
need to contact
support, there was a
button in membership
area for that.Even though
I’ve quit, I
appreciate the
knowledge PPC
Classroom has given
me, and that’s
why I’m
writing this. I
don’t know
what improvements
there will be in
version 3.0 yet and
I haven’t
stayed long enough
to know every single
module there’s
been, but the recap
of what I’ve
experienced is as
follows:
- The membership area is organized in to different sections and modules, there’s a lot of information about PPC and Internet marketing in general you can read right away, and there are the main modules which are added monthly.
- There are enough of the modules to start with so you can launch your campaigns and the additional modules are more advanced, full of tips and tricks. Some of them include video tutorials. And finally, for each module you go through, you can take a test.
- There are also some basic keyword tools (nothing fancy), the forums, some bonuses and up-sells if you’ve taken any.
- I took their Niche Detective trial which was quite useful for the ideas and the case studies. As a matter of fact, one of those niches was the first to give me substantial sales and I’m still in it to this day.
One thing I
didn’t like
was the scarce
appearance (pretty
much none) of Anik,
Amit and their
coaches on the
forums. They had a
VIP access as an
up-sell (don’t
remember the price,
but it was pretty
expensive) and
apparently
they’ve posted
in there. But as a
comparison, the
Commission Blueprint
forums are full of
one of its authors
answering questions
or even just
chatting, definitely
gives a nice
experience and I
certainly would have
liked to see at
least a fraction of
that in PPC
Classroom too.
Over all, as I said,
I do appreciate what
I’ve learned,
it was a
professionally
presented course and
worth the money
I’ve spent,
even if only for a
month. And
hopefully, PPC
Classroom 3.0 will
be improved even
more.
