    it is best to reuse a domain, as it will already have history and be indexed...but if it has nothing to do with the offer your promoting then you might not wanna use it. if you need a new domain to go with a completely new offer go ahead and start fresh its not that big of a deal.but like i said if it is related to your offer and is already indexed etc. then use that domain as it will help with qs

    being indexed has a big effect on your quality score and how well they like your domain. if your site wasnt indexed your bids will be much higher, but if it is indexed they love that and it will help you QS thus lowering your bids. having an indexed domain plays a big role in adwords ppc

    I usually get a new domain with strategic keywords in it for each offer type I run. Dunno, that's just me. :p

    cheers

    I have a generic domain name and I create sub domains for each different offer.

    Same.

    I'm still able to get really cheap clicks and great QS without being slapped with using a brand new domain. Saying it plays a "big role" would be a bit of an overstatement IMO.

    That's what I'm doing. I'm buying a new domain for every new product/offer I'm promoting.

    i don't buy a new one for each offer, i just buy one domain that i think i will use for a lot of offers, like this domain"expertshoponline[dot]com" i can use it for everything that is related to shopping etc.

    It is better to use a new domain for a different product.

    Lol no way, I have a couple of generic domains that you can slap a subdomain on to easy enough. But I promote a lot through PPC and most campaigns do not end up profitable, so it would be a waste to buy a new domain every time I tried a new offer.

    I test it with direct to merchant usually then if it's a good one I'll buy a new domain and build it out or buy an existing site that already has some content on it. It makes a major difference in your quality score which translates into lower bids if you do it right.
