Google AdWords Grant Samples?
-
Can anyone direct us to an actual sample of the 500 word essay required and a list of all the documents required once the client is accepted as a Google for nonprofit community member?
Thanks, Jim

I submitted one several years ago, and it seemed Google really wants to hear about your non-profit and why it should have the grant status, rather than have a modified form letter.

Hey Jim, Apologies on not getting back to you quicker!
Unfortunately, I think that those are very confidential internal documents for those nonprofits. I work agency side and I haven't even seen them for my nonprofit clients.
As far as paperwork after the application process - I don't think there is anything necessary. I think the application process is all the proof they need, they verify you with the IRS (please review the link at the bottom of Khem's reply), then they create a google grant account for you.

I don't think you need anything else if you've got your Google grant account approved.
Otherwise, first get your 501(c)(3) status
and here are some other helpful points for specific sections of the application:
**_URL of website: _**Enter the website you'd like to advertise in your AdWords account. This website may differ from the domain of your organization, depending on the program or initiative you wish to promote.
Organization Mission Statement / Primary Objective: What is the story you'd like to share with the world? What distinguishes you from other non-profits in your field? Since ad text is limited to 3 lines, what language would attract users to your website? This information will also help you brainstorm about creating your ad.
Explain how you expect Google AdWords advertising will contribute to your organization_:_Discuss your mission and goals in terms of online advertising. Which initiatives or programs would you advertise online? Other than an increase in donations and website traffic, what would you like to gain from this award? What action would you like users to take when they reach your website? For example, do you offer volunteer or newsletter sign-ups? Do you sponsor or run events to benefit your organization? Tell us what you wish to accomplish from a click on your ad!
**_Who is your target audience for online advertising?: _**If possible, include the location of your target audience. You can target users both around the world and in a specific geographic region. If your non-profit operates locally, tell us where, and perhaps the surrounding areas that may benefit from your mission and services.
Once you submit your application, you'll receive a confirmation e-mail from our team. It usually takes 3 to 4 months for us to review and process applications.
Hope this helps. Besides, you can also http://groups.google.com/group/googlegrants-help-application/browse_thread/thread/45a13575943e00fe/e650c22ed066e49c?lnk=st&q=#e650c22ed066e49c for more details

Hi all, I have a client who operates a remote business and I need to get her Google business/ brand account set up.

Wrong Descriptions for Title's on Google SERP?
I put descriptions in for each of my product categories a couple months ago and a few of my category pages rank high. The problem is that most of my category pages have the wrong meta description on the SERP. The descriptions that are shown sometimes have the home page description, which isn't a big deal, but some have descriptions of different products and most have descriptions of sub categories. Below is an example of a subcategory description (specialty feeders) for a main category: Co-matic Power Feeders - Products - Shop Gear Inc <cite>www.shopgearinc.com/products/co-matic-power-feeders/</cite>Specialty Feeders. Specialty Co-matic feeders are built for use on a variety of machines and for specific operations. Shop Gear supplies a variety of specialty **...****Any Suggestions?**Thanks

How do I get google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors?
How do I get Google to crawl white papers that displays a form for human visitors? I have been looking into this and understand that I need to set the form up as a GET form which has been done. Google said they want you to "avoid" forms that require personal information but to what extent do they want you to do that? The form is used as a lead generator so we need to collect information such as name, company name, email, ect.The information we require currently is: Name, Company name, Email, Phone Number and Number of employees. Once a user puts in their information they have access to the rest of the content and they don't need to re-enter the information in so I assume once Google gets past this feature they can gain access to the rest of the content. I understand that I need to have a form that doesn't ask for personal information which is the dilemma. So what should we do to work around this? Is there a solution that will allow me to obtain some personal information while still allowing Google to crawl the pages? Thoughts and any feedback is much appreciated, TJ
