hi,

i think this thread should be here .
i have a google adwords account with 30$ money in it.
i found that if i changed the Budget/Month to 200$ or 500$ , i will have a better ad Impression.
my question is , if i change the Budget/Month to 200$ , is google charge my credit card for 200$ ?? or it is just program it for 200$ with my 30$ ?

If the 30 dollars does not cover whatever you have used it will charge it

They wont.. It is up to you to pause the ads before you reach your limit.

You can also set daily limits...though they can exceed them by 20%, if I recall correctly.

Yes, if you only have $30 in the account, then they will charge the difference on your Credit Card.

Also, to change daily limit, the setting is in each individual campaign, so each campaign can have a different daily limit.

thanks.
i switched to Standard edition , now i have a bag of tools and stuffs.
i have one question , how can i set my keywords to work for all phrases that have that keyword ?
i mean , if my keyword was "host" , how can i say to google that show my ad for "get a host" , "buy a cheap host" and any other sentence that have "host" word on it ?

how should i write it in keywords section ?

Write it without the quotation marks. That makes it do broad matches. If you put the phrase in quotes, it will only look for that phrase.

All of these questions can be found in the Google FAQ, and I would imagine the answers Google give you would be better than us WHT'ers.

I am just getting into the hosting business. Has anyone found that adwords is a great way to get actual buyers?

Matt Heaton wrote a great article on his blog ( http://mattheaton.com ) called "Google's little secret". It just reaffirmed my decision not to pay for adwords.

If you use Adwords, try various combinations of specific keywords. Broad matching can use up a budget quickly.

Are you having success using AdWords? I have found it is no longer effective (too expensive) for Web hosting services. I would certainly be interested in hearing about your recent experiences with it, if you don't mind sharing. :)

Itz very expensive, some time back you had the ability to bid for $1 and get a top spot but now even if you pay $5 per click its pretty difficult to get a top spot, and without a top spot you wont get noticed

Adwords is a great program, but anyway it will charge it for the $200
