Google Adwords Demographic Bidding
Got an email from Adwords today. It seems that they just opened a beta program where advertisers can bid on specific groups of people.
Demographic bidding is a way to help your ad reach audiences of a certain age or gender. If you want your ads to be seen by women aged 18-24, or people over 55, demographic bidding can help. Demographic bidding is a new feature which is now available to a limited number of AdWords users.
Ebooks, Ebooks, Stupid Ebooks
I have to admit that I got stuck in the Clickbank trap. Buying the next latest and greatest ebook on how to make thousands daily while I slept. And most turned out to be systems. Systems that would only work for a while until everyone was doing it. And I would try the system and the system would work, but the money would eventually slow down or the time I had to put in to get money out got to be more and more. I would write software to try to streamline the system so I could spend less time and still make the same money. But eventually, I would get the next ebook.

Great post on thinking outside of the box when it comes to being an affiliate.
Google Adwords Campaign Optimizer
Just found this today in my Adwords account. Does it work? Yes. But you have to check everything out first.
Of course, they optimize your keywords up to number one position. So unless your ready to start paying out the teeth, you have to take these suggestions with a grain of salt. It’s great for long tail keywords. But many times a lower position with better ad copy will win out. Let all the new "kill ‘em all" hot shot advertiser’s pay out the teeth.
Wordpot – Free Keyword Tool
This is a great little free keyword tool that seems to grab more of the longtail phrases than the Overture or Google keyword tool. It also doesn’t seem to limit it’s search to words with more than three letters. Typing "how to" into the search box has some interesting results. I only wish the list of keywords found wasn’t limited.
