    Ok, I want to modify my adwords campaigns and add misspellings.
    Is there a way to get common misspellings, a tool or software?

    Should I create a separate campaign for the misspellings or just add it to the correct spelling compaign.

    Thanks for any advice

    Keep your misspelling campaign separate, because it's easier to track the ROI and CTR.

    Another good reason to keep them in different campaigns is for bidding purposes. If Google doesn't have a "bin" of history for your misspell (from other advertisers) it might charge you a higher bid to keep it active.

    WordTracker provides misspellings.

    Any tips on how to organize your campaigns, naming conventions etc for the proper keywords and the mispelled keywords?

    Do it in a fashion that makes sense to you and allows for growth. I've seen people leave the default campaign and ad group titles in place only to have to rename everything once their account really started to grow.

    thanks all for the tips.

    Now, any thoughts on which search method to use for the mispelled phrases?
    broad, exact?

    Try all the match options, then see which one you get the highest CTR with.

    That is exactly right - I have found that google will tell you that you need to bid higher.

    Place that keyword in a new campaign and get some click-thoughs. After a day or so try to reduce your bid below your initial requirment. Sometime you are able to do this once you have established a click through history

    This is what I recommend if you don't have any other options...

    www.GoodKeywords.com

    It will let you quickly create lists of duplicate characters, missing and swapped characters, and keyword proximity errors... Benefits of this tool - It's not server based and it's free. :)

    www.keyword-toolkit.com's free tool will do some things for you as well...
