with all of the help i have been getting on here, i have been learning so much and i noticed something.. I am no way interested in the ringtones affilate programs. The ones that i run are small ones like 'enter email address', etc. I am not experienced enough to begin to touch ringtones as i lost 2k last summer on adwords while promoting clickbank. What i noticed with people running ringtone programs on goodle.. all of the keywords are automatically showing up on their web pages... For instance, if i search for 'idiot ringtones' .. i see their ad, 'idiot ringtones'. I go to their page and see in their campaign banner 'idiot ringtones' right on their banner. How do people get the specific keywords to show up on their sites? Do people make indivudual adwords campaigns for each individual band/artist? How is this done? Is it a PHP script or something?
hmm.. starting to see the pattern here when these sort of questions get asked. understandable that people dont like talking about it because then everyone knows how. Sucks having to figure these things out on your own but i guess having to hire someone in india for $50 on elance to show me how might not be out of the question
Haha no need to hire an indian coder, here's some free Dutch feedback There are basically and technically two methods which you could use to display the keywords on your page: 1) Parsing the keywords through a parameter set in your destination url. This way you'll have to set a separate destination url for each kw in your Adwords campaign. I.e. www.mysite.com/?kw=dvd+software. On your website you could use whatever script you like,. php,asp,etc., even javascript.. to grab the value of the 'kw' parameter. 2) Using a script on your site to grab the KW info from the visitor's referal url. Now if user for example searched for 'dvd movie software' and clicked your ad, the referal url will logically look like: "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=dvd+movie+software&btnG=Google+Search" You can again use whatever script you like to extract the keywords from this url.. (Disadvantage of method #2: some users have their referer info blocked)
thanks for the info how does one set a seperate destination URL in each campaign without having to make a new campaign for each URL? Also, do you know of any scripts that i can use in the PHP of myu content to display the keywords on my site title, meta and body? u guys rock. if i can get it working im going to try it with a survey type thing
Here's another cool option, write your destination URL in the following format: http://www.yoursite.com?kw={keyword:nokw} This way you can get the keyword automatically
