    I am very new this game, but have been reading and learning a lot from you folks.

    I understand that Broad Match and Exact Match for the same keywords should be kept in seperate campaigns.

    Question:
    Should Local Business ads with the same keywords as the above two campaigns also be placed in a seperate campaign?

    THANKS

    Hey,

    I would also love to learn more about this, I have had great success with searching the whole usa, but when it comes down to local areas its pretty hard.

    I'm having reasonable success with my ads showing up in my area if I use the city name in my searches. I have city names in my keyword strings which, I'm sure, is why they are working well. Other city names, substituted in the same strings, I can't see even though those cities are in my geo targeted areas. Google says "I'm not in that area". I don't know if the ad would show if I was on a computer 20 miles away. I suspect it would.

    I'm also showing up well with local business center listings (with a map), but I wish Google would give us more than six categories for those!
