Please, help

Hi guys,
I really need your help.
I know nothing about marketing, PR or anything of the sort... and i am sure i'm doing something wrong.
I decided to do a seminar on understanding women. I created a website, published it, put it in Adwords and tried 'promoting' it myself. Alright, here's the deal: in two days Adwords gave me 88,000 impressions, but also only 209 clicks, and the problem is - none of those clicks signed up for the seminar!
That considering the fact that it's free and such.
The worst thing is that I am starting the seminar on March 25th, so i have 2 days really to get some people for it. And damn it, it will be a great seminar, and it's free... What am doing wrong?
Please, advise!
oh, the seminar's website is www.webinarch.com
THANK YOU ALL!!!

Sounds like you need a professionally managed adwords campaign. 209 clicks out of 88k impressions is really low, and no conversions from 209 clicks for something free is even worse. Though at this point if the seminar is 3 days away your going to need to find people fast.

Are you targeting the right keywords? Also make sure you turn off the content network in campaign settings.

The site looks pretty slick so I don't think that's your problem.

hmm.. Managing adwords is not that easy

Here are a few tips to get you started:

- Select proper Keywords
- Use Geo-Targeting
- Turn Off Content Network

Also, offline promotions would work great for your seminar like distribute some flyers, email your friends etc

Also, try other traffic methods don't only stick with adwords, try classifieds, yahoo and gmail groups, video marketing on youtube, orkut myspace facebook, use social bookmarking to get attention!!

And one advice delay your seminar of you havent found anyone yet

Feel free to Pm me if you need any additional help
