how to register for Google Adwords Certification
can you send me link where i can register for this exam ASAP.
Hi Kishore
Sorry for the delayed response from my side. Please find the URL https://ibt1.prometric.com/?ibt=5073663592& by following this you will get a registration form to continue the test.
Which avenues can I explore to access an Ad words account with min $1000 spend without being in a digital marketing company, or company with an active presence online?
Surely $1000 would be a great deal to spend on a personal blog.
How can I go about managing an adwords account of $1000 as a beginner in the e-marketing spectrum?
Thanks for the compare and contrast. Which program would recommend?
Trish, that’s the point: Google doesn’t want you certifiying in Adwords unless you are using the program extensively. $1000/month isn’t hard…you need to find3-4 clients willing to spend at least $10/day promoting their products.
Well worth the effort to get certified
I am much impressed to see the comparison. I was looking for Google Analytics certification, so thanks for your informative post.
Excellent comparison and thank you for this. Just one question. Do i still need to manage at least one account for 90 days or maintain a total spend of 1000$? Is it the same for fundamental and advanced level?
