Lost All Faith In Natural Results?

If you are fed up with Google's algo for search, don't jump over to MSN or Yahoo just yet.

Maybe the sponsored listings are better... You can search them without SERPs littering your screen here: http://www.google.com/sponsoredlinks

Google are really milking it. The paging on that page is queer.

It's a handy tool to compare prices for Web Hosting (amongst others):

That's a nice little tool for researching your competition and the types of ads they are writing if you are using Adwords.

Its an easy tool for us to write the companies a letter about me selling ad space, and that im much more cheaper and can deliver them the same quality traffic ,for certain keywords of course.

Looks like a great tool is right ...

I'm finding that my keywords are not showing up there though. We have keywords that maybe 1-3 others are advertising in AdWords

Our listing comes up in the regular search in Google, but not in this tool for some reason. hmm...

Does anyone know how the results are ordered? Random? CPC?

This is really interesting. What I'm seeing here is that a lot of my competition seems to be doing one ad per keyword or there abouts. Is this the usual way of doing adwords? For instance, if you put in the word "dresses" you get back a whole lot of ads that begin with the word "Dress" or "Dresses". If you go with "Fashion" the same thing from a lot of the same places. It almost seems like spam to me. On thing is, it shoudl be easy to stand out in a crowd that all looks the same!
