Search Volume in Google Adwords Search Tool - Rocks!

Google Adwords keyword search tool is now reporting search volume for keywords.

Love this truly missed feature. Keyword hunting has become even more exciting!!

How to make Adwords Campaigns profitable ? (Part 1)

Avoid Generic Keywords.

Create Targeted groups with small number of relevant keywords. Ensure your landing page content relevant to your ad group.

Monitor your keyword performance weekly to start with and then monthly after 3-4 months.

Use Conversion tracking so you know keywords are converting. Without this you will be shooting in the dark and we all know how fruitful that is.

Delete keywords that are:

• Not receiving any clicks
• Not converting
• Not profitable.
  

Why delete keywords that are not receiving clicks? Because they affect your Campaign CTR. Low CTR will means high cost to you.

Turn off content network. It will drain your CTR.

If a keywords has not converted in 100 Clicks. Delete it.

If a keywords has cost you more than your profit to convert delete it.

Google: AdWords Trademark Policy Revision (UK and Ireland)

This is a very interesting change.

Looks like it will be free for all soon. Another way to increase revenue for G$$$$$$GLE

What's changing in AdWords Trademark Policy? When?Google has made a policy revision that applies to complaints that we receive regarding trademarks in the UK and Ireland. For complaints received on or after Friday 4 April 2008, we will no longer review a term corresponding to the trademarked term as a keyword trigger. However, we will continue to perform a limited courtesy investigation of complaints regarding ad text purported to be in violation of a trademark.
Beginning 5 May 2008, keywords that were disabled as a result of a trademark investigation will no longer be restricted in the UK and Ireland.

How your competitors can damage your Google ranking.

At the moment competitors can damage your site in several ways, things that Google lets your competitors affect your rankings with are:

1. Inbound links from "bad"/”dodgy” places.
2. Hundreds of links from one IP address.
3. Duplicate content:
a) from competitors scraping your entire site and creating their own from it
b) from competitors stealing your articles and submitting them to article
submission services.
c) from sending bogus query strings to your URLs
d) getting your site spidered under SSL

4. 301/302 redirect hijacking (after all this time, it STILL happens!)

and there is new 301 hijack which is causing sites to drop like flies.

People who do this are scum to say the least.

Watch out and stay safe.
