thanks]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 24 Apr 2008 15:50:46 GMT</pubDate><date_added>2008-04-24 15:59:04 GMT</date_added><category><a href='http://www.giveitsocks.com/cat54-Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc.html' title='Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc'>Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc</a></category><author>byronyasgur</author><guid>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1806-keyword-spy.html</guid></item><item><title>Google Checkout Badges on Adwords Ads</title><link>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1859-Google-Checkout-Badges-on-Adwords-Ads.html</link><description><![CDATA[Is there a way of getting the Google Checkout badge to appear on an Irish account?]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 01 May 2008 17:13:21 GMT</pubDate><date_added>2008-05-01 18:59:09 GMT</date_added><category><a href='http://www.giveitsocks.com/cat54-Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc.html' title='Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc'>Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc</a></category><author>Uncle Rico</author><guid>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1859-Google-Checkout-Badges-on-Adwords-Ads.html</guid></item><item><title>Quality Score - Minimum Bid for Branded Terms Ridiculous</title><link>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1935-Quality-Score-Minimum-Bid-for-Branded-Terms-Ridiculous.html</link><description><![CDATA[Hi Everyone,

First a bit of history we have several websites which we run PPC campaigns for. Originally the last person who ran these, did so from the same account. Eg: 3 Websites with 1 PPC account.

One of the first things I did was split this into 3 separate accounts, mainly for clarity in reports, but also for conversion tracking. For a brief period of time we have not been running a campaign for 1 website.

We have now decided to run a campaign, however it seems that we are scoring very low for quality score and the only reason I could see this happening is because of account history.

I have made this assumption based on the following:
- These are brand related terms (terms that related to our business only!).
- We are using these specific terms on our website (its in our page content) including heading tags, title tags and the like.
- Some of these terms are domain name related searches.

Yet we have been stiffed by Google with Min Bid of €0.30 cent to €4 this is absurd.

FWIW I have also used these terms in our creative text, before we were Google slapped we had a couple of conversions (high conversions). I don't see how Google makes such a judgement call, honestly I can't see how this is fair for us. (I know there is an Adwords Spider - so might double check its not being blocked).

Other than that I'm stumped, any advice? I am thinking of contacting Google about this.

Cheers,
Gavin.]]></description><pubDate>Mon, 19 May 2008 09:51:18 GMT</pubDate><date_added>2008-05-19 12:59:05 GMT</date_added><category><a href='http://www.giveitsocks.com/cat54-Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc.html' title='Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc'>Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc</a></category><author>gav240z</author><guid>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1935-Quality-Score-Minimum-Bid-for-Branded-Terms-Ridiculous.html</guid></item><item><title>Conversion Tracking  Multiple Conversions - Which One Will Be Recorded</title><link>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1965-Conversion-Tracking-Multiple-Conversions-Which-One-Will-Be-Recorded.html</link><description><![CDATA[Hi Everyone,

I have currently set up conversion tracking on a website with multiple goals. We have 3 separate goals in place:

1.) User Registration
2.) User Placing an AD for Free
3.) User Placing an AD with Cash Value

Another words there is conversion tracking at each point.

New users will need to register an account with us. This is considered a conversion with $0 value.

Existing users will just login with their account.

They can either sell something for Free with us, at which point conversion tracking code is placed on the "thank you" for your listing page.

Or they can place a cash value ad with us which is tracked with the € value placed in a variable and sent back to Google.

I am wondering which conversion will be tracked?

Will it be?

Only the first conversion (user sign up).
Only the second value (listing an ad).

Or will it track both?

From memory it will only record the first conversion, but since Google recently changed it to set up multiple conversions I'm not sure.]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 22 May 2008 10:11:41 GMT</pubDate><date_added>2008-05-22 11:59:04 GMT</date_added><category><a href='http://www.giveitsocks.com/cat54-Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc.html' title='Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc'>Pay-Per-Click-Advertising-Ppc</a></category><author>gav240z</author><guid>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-1965-Conversion-Tracking-Multiple-Conversions-Which-One-Will-Be-Recorded.html</guid></item><item><title>Chitika</title><link>http://www.giveitsocks.com/list-2046-Chitika.html</link><description><![CDATA[Anyone know anything about them?
