Google Adwords Geo Targeting
67Geo-targeting is one of Google's Adword features which enables PPC advertisers target a specific continent, country, city or region to display their pay per click ads. This is one very effective tool because it really narrows down the redundant spending and restricts unwanted users to click on your ads. For example if you would like to target only United States and Canada or only specific cities within these countries so that visitors from Europe or Asia do not click on these ads. Its also helpful if you product and services are being offered to only desired locations that meet your targeted audience customers.

- AdWords Phishing - Another Type Of Click Fraud?
I now know what at least one of the scammers are doing. Screenshots of the fraudulent activity signature of this scammer are shown below.

- Malware Detection Breaks Web Metrics?
The Register has an article about web analytics problems caused by the malware detection of an anti-virus package. This may have implications for advertisers and SEO, too.

I have just received a series of evilly crafted attempts to obtain account names and passwords, or possibly to deliver malware. Formatted as a better than average mail message from Google, it looks like a genuine Customer Service message. Clicking the embedded link takes you to a site that looks like Google, but is a [...] - 2 months ago
- Yahoo vs AdWords: Part Dieux
Some time ago, I started a review comparing Yahoo!Search Marketing (previously Overture and previously Goto.com, but here known as “Y!SM”) with Google AdWords. Of course, Y!SM, which had been hanging fire on a promising new interface, Panama, promptly rolled the new stuff out. I claim no impact on this, just remark on an accident of [...] - 4 months ago
- Google, AdWords, April Fools Day Humour

My wife is convinced that I’m from another planet, and it is much further away [...] - 4 months ago
- Google Slap, Microsoft & Yahoo! Search Marketing
While I was driving to work, I began to wonder if the recent changes to Google AdWords, damaging a good many online businesses, have more to do with Microsoft’s hostile bidding for Yahoo!, than to do with advertisers. Google’s overarching significance is because of the organic search results. Most searches are not intended to find [...] - 4 months ago
- AdWords - Relevance - WTF?
I’ve been following a thread by a frustrated would-be advertiser in the AdWords Help Forum, with some interest. He’s obviously spotted that Google have potentially created a niche, by suppressing so many adverts when they think that the paid search results are less appropriate. The search is “No Country For Old Men DVD” or similar. [...] - 4 months ago
