Adwords coupons
-
I have a bunch of $300 free adwords spend coupons (must spend $100 & only new accounts) . If any body wants to become more of a t-marketer and play with ppc , Just comment in the post.
I would also love to hear how people are using t-marketing to enhance seo.

Agreed.
Also: PPC is often used as a substitute for an overall SEO/Marketing strategy...instead of a component of an overall strategy.
It's best to turn down potential clients who think PPC can do it all, IMHO and experience.

We find that ppc is a great service to offer but it does have a high churn rate the secret is to only take clients you think you can perform for.

I just spoke to an SEO person who applied for a position at our company. He previously worked at a PPC company. His experience was that:
For every 1,000 calls (and they were used a fairly qualified telemarketing list of companies), 10-20 people would agree to a web demo (about 1%). Of those that viewed the demo, about 10% converted into a paying customer (six month contract). So, probably 1-2 new clients from 1,000 calls. If you spend 5 minutes per call (to quickly look at their website), that's 83 hours of time to make 1,000 calls. At $15 per hour (roughly $30k per year), that's $1,245 to bring in a new client or two each week. Given the size of a contract, it might be worth it though...
But to me, it seems like quite a grind. He said they struggled, especially to keep motivated and positive, and about 20% of customers churned after their initial 6 month contract was up.
I've heard of telemarketing success from companies targeting specific vertical industries, like dentists or doctors, but usually with low-cost "packages."
I haven't found telemarketing to be particularly effective for higher-end SEO consulting... but that's my experience.
Love to hear from others who have heard more, or have "cracked the code" on how to make this work

Do IP and/or DNS changes impact Paid search (Adwords, Bing, etc.)
What impact (if any) does IP or DNS changes, have on paid search campaigns? We recently performed an upgrade to our sites that required a datacenter change (but within the same region East US) and DNS change. We believe there may have been an impact to our ad campaigns in the form of suppression of our ads following the change, specifically - Google Adwords. Is there any information regarding this issue or has anyone experienced this before? Thanks

Adwords Conversions - Trying to track button clicks that fire when Bootstrap modal contact form clicked/opened
Hi there, I'm trying to implement google adwords conversions on a particular client's website. They have used bootstrap as the framework for their site and mainly open up contact forms within a bootstrap modal, after a button is clicked. See here: http://www.gtwstorage.co.uk/ I thought I had successfully implemented the adwords conversion tracking however it has been a week now, and my conversions still say they are "unverified". I wonder if anyone else has encountered this before and knows what I might be doing wrong. Thank you in advance, Darren

Locate Poorly Trending Keywords in AdWords
At the campaign level I see my CTR has been suffering for the last week or two relative to the past few months. It could be a few bad actors casing the downward trend. How can I quickly and easily locate specific keywords that are trending in the wrong direction? Why filters will not work... They don't take change into account. I want to identify Keywords that were once doing well are now doing poorly. Filters will yield all keywords that are doing poorly which is not what I'm looking for. Obviously I could be missing something with filters but this is my understanding. A few other points to note... I have search partners turned on. I do not want to take this traffic into account in my analysis. I'd also like to determine if it might be an ad that's not performing as well as it once was. I assume the same method used to find poorly trending keywords can be applied to ads as well but if not, is there a solution for this?

AdWords/Analytics Paid Search conversions not matching up - any idea why?
Hi all, Any ideas as to why AdWords and Analytics are showing different Paid Search conversion numbers for me when I check on a daily basis? Both accounts are linked, they share the same destination URLs to trigger a conversion, some days each reflects the same amount of conversions, then some days it's anything from 1-5 conversions different (Analytics is always the one to show more). Thanks M

Good Adwords resources/ Guides
I'm going to be taking over the PPC for my company. A 3rd party currently does it but I have done a review and they have not been doing a great job ( I spotted a few very basic mistakes), so we want to switch it to in house I have experience with PPC, and I'm confident on the basic of it, but I was looking for a good (recent) PPC resource or guide so I can make sure I'm doing it right, basicly a ppcmoz 😉 For example current the campaigns are set to accelerated, but I have been told that is very wasteful, but the 3rd party explanation is:"We set the campaigns to be accelerated to avoid missing out on potential sales. These can be set to standard if you wish however there is a higher chance that sales could be missed." Which is correct?

Adding nyc to a keyword in Google Adwords
Hello. If I have a keyword in Google Adwords that is using phrase match ("keyword"), could it be useful to add the keyword phrase "keyword nyc"? Even if I did not add the second keyword phrase, my ad would be triggered if someone searched for "keyword nyc." So would it be redundant to add the second keyword phrase? Thank you!
