For about 30 days I have been running AdWords at about .15 a click with 10 key words.

I used the key word tool and in 1 minute I had 600 key words.

I maxed out my limit in less then 5 minutes and also went 40% over my budget for a day.
While I was editing my active key words the price went from .05 - .30 to 1.00 - 5.00 per click. :eek:
I sent a letter to Google asking what happened.
The response was, "We at Google improved are ads and have increased prices"
No way will I pay $1.00 to $5.00 a click when I make 1 sale out of 500 clicks.

Any feed back on what happened or is this a polite way Google tells you your banded from Google for going over your daily budget. :confused:

Am pretty sure this is just a temporary thing as Google reviews the
relevance and quality of your keywords and Ads.

Google knows that their searching audience is becoming more sophisticated and they do not want them figuring the difference between paid search and organic search. If the surfers figure this out, it means a lot less revenue for Google, so they have to force paid search guys to make their sites look like organic search sites so the surfer can't tell the difference.

How does this relate to you? Well your site doesn't look like the rest in the organic search side. Fix that and you won't see $5 bids anymore.
