Bulk keyword submission?

    The best way I can find in Google's help pages is how to add 750 keywords at a time, by pasting in the keyword**0.10**url thing.

    Help - I have 225,000 keywords. I know it can be done - there are certainly many accounts who use more keywords than that. Yes, I expect 99% of mine to be low quality, but that still leaves a lot that I expect to do well.

    Any tips? I don't really feel like breaking down my list into 300 small chunks and sitting here copying & pasting all day. Thanks...

    There's a 2,000 keyword limit per ad if I remember correcty...you're going to have to break that list down no matter how you look at it:(

    Some dude was just saying this morning that he did an experiment with "several thousand" keywords - I suppose that can mean 2000.

    garbage in garbage out. I would try to limit the list a bit, then break up the compaigns to fit the 2K limit

    That was me. 2,000 is the limit per ad group, not campaign.

    It wasn't a campaign that was put together in a 1/2 hour. There was probably a week + worth of research and work that went into building the campaign.

    Find someone who can code it using the Adwords API. Basically, a script could set up all the groups necessary from a simple text file. I could do it, but you're better off finding someone in your area and someone who'll do it cheaper than $5k :) Sorry.

    You would still have the 2K per ad group limit to deal with though...right?

    Wow, cool - I did not even know they had an API. Hopefully that should provide all I need. I just signed up for it, thanks. :)

    Well, i don't know anything about the 2k limit, but if you are correct, then simply create three identical ad groups and split the keywords between them.
