Jeremy, I signed up and missed the webinar.
Are they recorded or should I sign for another?
Hate to take spots from someone else if they're filled.

I have 1,000 seats for each webinar, so I think you'll be o.k. I have 409 signed up for the next one - that number will likely go up, but I doubt it will exceed the cap.

1.. Uploading to msn using excel. - I tried that last night and it was simply so easy that Its funny I couldn't get it before. I uploaded 978 keywords last night in 5 minutes using the msn template.
That simple tip in itself save me hours of hours of time that could be used elsewhere.
Now I am just trying to figure out the dynamic keyword part because I can't seem to get that to work.
Jeremy, first Thank you so much for the webinar. I have been looking at MSN for some time, still haven't dared to "go for it", so your webinar certainly Explained things much more.
However I would like to ask, if you don't mind:
Have you had any experience with promoting "simple" = one product like on MSN? Or is it just a "Commission Junction" etc Advertisers who are usually a big companies with many products?
and also, the question I've already asked in my other post:
What is Your experience with the MSN "market" = as for their level of sophistication, or even the kind of merchandise/products they buy?
Do you have an experience that it is possible to basically advertise "anything" on MSN like it is on Google?
f.e. I have a product in a 'crafts' area which is actually doing quite ok on Adwords, but somehow I have a little hard time to imagine that "my" type of target market would actually browse MSN...

Hi Fexana, good to see a fellow Canadian in the forum :)
I'm promoting a product where the target market is 25-50 year old women. My ROI on MSN is consistently at least twice as high as it is on Google. Some days the product will make the same amount of sales at MSN as it does at Google, even though the volume of clicks at Google is five times as high. There are a lot of affiliates reporting the same experiences. One factor is certainly that click prices are lower at MSN. I've got a hunch that one of the factors is the structure of the search engine results pages at MSN. The sponsored results seem to blend better with the regular results and might feel more trustworthy to the user. This is just a rambling opinion...
So, if your crafts-related product is targeted toward women, I think it's definitely worth a shot to try promoting it on MSN.
I'm looking forward to my turn at the MSN webinar, but it won't be until January.
Thanks for your info, it does help to confirm what I've heard from many others
however in my case I wasn't asking too much about the "demographics" as for age or gender, it was more about the "buying power", "type of market as for the lifestyle" etc, because f.e. the "craft" market mostly consist of a simple "stay-at-home moms, or bored housewives, or people working with kids, seniors etc and somehow I just have a hard time to imagine this kind of people would actually use MSN and not the Google only! (well, Yahoo a little bit)
It just seems to me + I've read about it some stats too - that the folks on MSN are more in Technically savvy, the "higher" markets, ergo "higher" products.
Which of course, does not mean they are Marketing savvy, right? :wink:
Which should be the Advantage .
I simply would not want to lose my time for a product which simply nobody is looking for at MSN
So if you are f.e. promoting some Quality Expensive Cosmetics or Fashion, yes, I Can see the Market at MSN...
But, of course, I may be wrong, that's way I am asking, as that would help me to decide "what" to promote

Hi Fexana,
I still think your time spent setting up your products on MSN will be time well spent. As Jeremy has probably shown in the webinar, the MSN interface makes it relatively quick to upload your keywords and set your bids.
Also, I've noticed that some less savvy web users, especially older folks, are using MSN search since it's the default when you install Internet Explorer. I'd be confident marketing a product toward these people on MSN.
Wow! thank you! Very encouraging news as "originally" I am a Rec. Therapist, spent years working with older folks, even have a site for seniors, and just finishing an ebook for them too :D
I would agree with Mike. I would say that your assumption about MSN catering to more technical users is backwards for the reason that Mike gave: it comes installed as the default with IE and therefore a lot less technical vs. "high end" people use it. I would say Google is the place where the more technical people go to search.
I think you'll find MSN a very good place to advertise and your cost per click will probably be lower.
Great MSN Adcenter Webinar Tonight Jeremy!
Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. I'll be doing some more webinars on various topics in the next few months. Stay tuned for updates.
Best,
Jeremy

I would appreciate Your view on this very much!
