AdWords Mad Scientist Keyword Tool

I put out the “AdWords Mad Scientist Keyword Tool“.
It generates keyword combinations, from a “root” keyword
that you put in. That you in turn put in your AdWords
adgroups.

Including combinations that most people would otherwise
miss.

I have a complex version that I use in-house. But have been
wanting to do a simpler version that anyone can use.
So I finally did it!

Note:
I did put in a text box that shows a rotating set of
promos for different products (including mine).

Kind of fun, after working with Adwords so much, to create
my OWN system for showing “ads”.
Though mine’s a lot simpler than Google’s!

Feel free to give some feedback on how it works for you,
and any changes or enhancements that would be useful.
I’d love for this to become a regular part of people’s
“AdWords toolbox”.

Tip:
Even if you already have a lot of the same keywords,
it doesn’t hurt to just generate new lists and insert them
into your adgroups. Google will ignore any duplicates. And
any existing bids will remain.

Google Goggles - Google Cash days again

This is the message 1 about Google Goggles. I’m “supposed” to send these as if they’re coming from me. But I think it’s better to just post them for you to get the information (and not pretend that I wrote it!).

I should mention that even though they emphasize affiliate marketing, the tool applies for ALL advertising. Whether your own products, or a site where you’re making money from advertising, or whatever. The only think specific to affiliates in their tool, is that it looks at affiliate links on your landing page, and how that affects your quality score.

Anyway, here is their message 1 about Google Goggles:

Remember the days before Google Slap,
when grass was green and making money
with Google Adwords was easy?

Ever needed some cash to come into your
affiliate account THE SAME DAY?

All you’d need to do BACK THEN was stick
a bunch of keywords into Adwords and
send them to an affiliate landing page.

—————————————-
Well, my friends Larry and Amish claim
they have brought those days back…
—————————————-

(using just a handful of easy techniques,
at that…)

Techniques, they claim, that you and I
can replicate over and over.

It almost feels like it’s 2006 again –
*BEFORE* the dreaded Google Slap!

A bold claim. Here’s how Larry and Amish
are going to prove it to you:
Google Goggles

—————————————-
If you’ve ever experimented with Google
advertising, you’ve probably heard of
Larry and Amish long before me
—————————————-

Their Adwords advice sites HexaTrack and
TheNewPPC have attracted somewhat of a
cult following over the last 12 months.

Because these guys just seem to GIVE,
GIVE, GIVE freely, even at the risk of
getting ripped off.

I’m not saying they’re Mother Theresa –
they *DO* sell some Pay-Per-Click
software, including their new tool,
Google Goggles.

See, software is essential to avoid the
INTERNET MARKETER’S TIME TRAP:

There are only so many hours in
a day.

So the name of the Google Cash
game is to put up as many sites into
rotation as you can — per day, per
week, per month.

Software helps to automate that
process. And multiply your income.

—————————————-
However, Larry & Amish’s advice itself
has always been gratis.
—————————————-

As is the case with their new video
today.

It’s a complete reverse-engineering of
*WHY* the Google Cash method no longer
works UNLESS you use Larry & Amish’s
techniques.

It’s a complete ANATOMY of the Google
Slap phenomenon that ruined the party
for many of us.

Their motto is, “Put On Your Google
Goggles!” and make money like it’s
2006 again:

With Google Goggles, you can determine
INSTANTLY if your traffic funnel will
make you money, and test new sites
faster — BEFORE you spend a dime on
Adwords clicks.

I use Google Goggles every day already.

—————————————-
Now, let me come right out with it and
confess that that’s an affiliate link
—————————————-

I make no bones about that.

I’m hoping that you’ll like Larry &
Amish’s advice *SO* much that you’ll get
their software tool when it’s released
on August 25.

Or don’t… and run with the free
techniquees they give in the video and
PDF.

It’s up to you — just allow me to
make my case as to WHY buying Google
Googles on August 25 is the only
sensible choice.

With your permission, I’ll be sending
you a few more training videos from
Larry & Amish between now and August 25.

For now, enjoy this video and the
related PDF that explains it all.

P.S. To reiterate. This is not a lame
“teaser” video that gives you reasons
why you need to buy the Google Goggles
software, while keeping the actual
secrets cloaked.

This video is laying the cards out
on the table as to what *EXACTLY* you
need to do to make money selling
affiliate products with Adwords, today
in 2008.

(Also known as the Google Cash method
…brought back from the past.)

If you choose to apply these techniques
manually, fine.

If you choose to buy Google Goggles
later, in order to automate the process
and build more profitable traffic
funnels faster, that’s fine too.

It’s all there for you, nothing held
back. Check it out.

Google Goggles Review

Here’s a quick rundown on Google Goggles:

Bottom line:
It is a good tool. It’s not yet the be-all end-all for defeating the Google Slap.
But it does have great value. Especially to get past whatever is slapping your keywords.

You do have to manually enter the information. But that’s worth it for important adgroups. I could imagine a “power” version that ties in with your account, pulls in the information, and gives you the breakdown. Maybe that will come later, for people that want to go through a lot of adgroups.

I don’t feel they have THE formula for how the pieces (keyword, ad, landing page, etc.) together go into the quality score. But it seems like a decent approximation.

Which is better than a lot of the overly-simplistic stuff out there, that would have you believe there’s only one main factor.
(I’ve seen tools that are just about having keywords match the landing page, like that’s ALL that’s needed to defeat the Google Slap.)

But back to Google Goggles:
Even going through the process made me think through some or factors. And a couple new things to try. The big value is that it breaks things down (as the formula sees it) into the different pieces.

For example, if it thinks your domain name is bad, it will show as a short brown bar. You click that and they give some tips. Though the tips are going to be the same each time, they’re still useful.

The user interface is a bit more cute than I need. But then it makes it more fun. So I guess I can’t hold that against it!

Anyway, I do recommend Google Goggles as a good tool to have in your toolbox. Even if not getting heavily “slapped”, it’s still a good way to increase quality, and get lower bids.

And after get it, they throw in some great bonuses.
