Silly but important timing question!

    Hi gang,

    Ok this might be basic or covered elsewhere but I couldn't find my answer. I am promoting clickbank, using adwords among othe ppc's. I'm noticing that one of my products is getting a majority of certain sales with 2 time periods throughout the day. I wanted to time my adwords to pump more traffic at those times, and less traffic at 'no action' times. So I set up time frames accordingly with adwords :)

    Problem: 1. I am not sure that clickbank and adwords have the same worldwide time. 2. I am not sure that if I put say 1pm-5pm as a timeframe, does that mean it will be shown 1-5 in everytimezone? So 1-5 here is canada, and 1-5 in the UK and 1-5 in the US etc?

    From my logs it seems that I'm off by 5 hrs, and my ads showed at my dead times, subsequently my sales suffered so I switched back to show at all times :(

    Is there a difference it times/zones between CB ad AdW? Is there timezone differences right across the board when making your ads appear in time blocks?

    If this is a bit confusing, sorry: I will summarize again.

    1. Live in Canada
    2. Post ads in blocks of time (i.e. 1-5pm) with adwords.
    3. Clickbank shows less sales/hops, my counter shows a delay by 5 hours for the traffic...

    Yes I know I can/will try to adjust them by 5 hours but that might set my time here in Canada off by 5 hours?... Thank you kindly in advance for any info anyone has that can relate :)

    NC.

    I think you would have to target the ads using php. I don't no anything about php but client side time targeting or something similar.
