Last month, I wrote a brief summary of how to create and manage a pay-per-click (PPC) campaign through Taboola.

MLS Weech was kind enough to host one of my marketing pieces on his site last week — thanks man! Definitely check out his blog, and his books Caught and The Journals of Bob Drifter!

This series will explore the marketing strategies I will use to promote my upcoming novel.
Today I’d like to discuss pay-per-click (PPC) advertising as a marketing strategy.
