PPC Keyword Phrases and Options
-
Sorry in advance.... I've used search on the SEOMoz site and Google but not found an exact answer to my question.
I am looking at starting PPC campaign - do I need all variations of these keywords or is google clever enough to work on dashes etc... I want the keyword phrase to come up with loads of different locations. Do I need to input them all separately like I have below?
1. Keyword Sample Phrase
2. Keyword-Sample Phrase
3. KeywordSample Phrase
4. Keyword Sample Phrases
5. Keyword Sample Phrase Location
6. Keyword-Sample Phrase Location
7. KeywordSample Phrase Location
8. Keyword Sample Phrases Location
Thanks in advance....

I would do it like this:
AdGroup - Keyword
- Keywords
AdGroup Location
- Keyword Location
- Keywords Location
You really just need to make sure that if you do it this way, you turn off the "Keyword Variance" in the Campaign Settings or it will F up your data.
Don't forget to NOT use broad match and only use modified broad match.
And always always use Phrase & Exact matches for every keyword type!

Negative Keywords
This will end up being a two part question: We have been running a search marketing campaign for about 45 days. It seems no matter how many negative keywords we add (over 300 right now), we still are receiving borderline relevant traffic to the broad match ad group. We are in the printing industry and I think this in itself presents a challenge since there are thousands of competitors in our market, national & local. People also search for a variety of items, most of which end up having nothing to do with our business (i.e. animal prints, zebra prints etc.) We are running several different ad groups: one exact match, one broad and one phrase match. Does anyone have a resource or links they are willing to share that has general negative terms they use before creating any new campaign? I have ones I have found, but wondering if there is a very good master resource out there. How many key phrases do you typically add to an 'Exact Match' ad group? Thank you!

Adding nyc to a keyword in Google Adwords
Hello. If I have a keyword in Google Adwords that is using phrase match ("keyword"), could it be useful to add the keyword phrase "keyword nyc"? Even if I did not add the second keyword phrase, my ad would be triggered if someone searched for "keyword nyc." So would it be redundant to add the second keyword phrase? Thank you!

Google PPC Management
Okay, so I have a client who wants me to manage their ppc on Google. It seems like either they give me access to their PPC account or I manage it via my own account and pre-bill for the cost, later supplying reports. Are those the two options? Thanks...MJ
