Tailor your campaign exactly to your needs: You can run your ad in any country or language you want. And at any time of the day you want. This means you can explore a lot more options to make more money online.

CONS: Expensive: You are paying for each visitor to your site. If a good proportion of those visitors don't buy from you, then the traffic is wasted.

Lots of competition: It is getting more and more competitive which means higher advertising costs. This means less profit.

Stricter guidelines: Google are getting stricter with their quality control guidelines. They want sites to be more SEO friendly. This means that unlike in the old days, you will need to spend more time in making sure your site meets the guidelines.

Too many changes and uncertainty for the future: If you rely too heavily on PPC and the rules change, you could end up without traffic and a business. Google has been known to shut accounts without any warning.
