You say you keep dropping your bid until you start to lose position. When that happens do simply up your bid (a bit) again and do you get your old rank back ?

Or does the whole bid high and then drop your bit slowly process begin again ? (I ask because losing positions also implies a lower CTR and thus higher bids)

Good post. I find that this works also on the context network if you do it a similar way.

Hamish – 1. no, my landing pages all eventually are multi page sites. 2. yep I test many different variations to see which yields the highest CTR/conversion rate.

Steffen – google analytics

Desmond – start your bids higher than the minimums.

rhys – lol no way, sorry.

Excellent information on your blog. I am learning a lot from you. Would you be able to let us take a peek at your landing page? If possible, that will really accelerate our learning. Thanks again for the great blog. Keep up the great work!

I F*&kin suck @ss at Adwords…thats one thing i really have to work on. I hate it….ok i vented. Before I used to to put thousands of keywords in a group then i learned that was a no-no…so I now group them to be relevant and I noticed that with my last campaign I really didnt put the keyword in the ad only the healine and the bids i started with are 10 cents pointing to a clickbank product with I would think had relevant content. So once i started the campaign just about all my ads were 10-15 cents and a few 10 dollar and 5 dollar (which I refuse to pay) so I was wondering if I should raise my bids or make a landing page and direct them to my money page.
