Hello Stuart, thanks for the welcome home.

I’ll be targeting a good 3 to 4 gadget merchants so there might be a chance of some conflict, lol.

I got Adwords to increase my account limits a while ago. I just e-mailed them and insisted everything in there was as relevant as it was going to get, and that I wanted to delete nothing.

Basically I said “I can’t spend more if you don’t give me more space”. They gave me more space, lol.

Hi Kirsty,

Welcome back to sunny :-s Britain. Good luck with the Xmas push. I’m promising myself to make a big effort this year too. And crossing my fingers that we haven’t both plumped for the same gadget merchant! Fight, fight! How do you get that many words into an Adwords campaign without stroppy messages saying that the account is unmanageable? I barely get into 5 figures before I get told off.

Happy acclimatising.

All the best!

Stuart

Sorry for a delayed reply Adrian, your comment was sent to my spam bin for some reason! I mean 45,000 keywords for a number of ads (and actually it’s now risen to 90,000!). Phew!

So when you say 45000 PPC listings do you mean 45000 keywords for a number of ads, or 45000 separate ads for individual products?

Cheers

Ah… it’s all about keyword combinations Adrian. You don’t just create a listing for a single combination of a product related term.. you think about all the variations on the ways people might enter them into search engines when they are trying to find the product you are promoting.

I then create thousands of terms using excels concatenate function, or if its a biggie Duncan will create a mini database in SQL to do it for me.

Hi Kirsty,

Would you mind explaining how you go about creating 45000 PPC listings or is this a trade secret???

I presume you are taking info from the merchants product feed?

Thanks

Adrian
