    Hey
    The cost for 1000 units of api calls is $0.25

    I couldn't find the information on how much API units it costs for adding a keyword?

    I have 10,000 keywords and eachone will have about 3-4 variations with the quotes and brackets at the end so around 40,000 keyword adds.

    How much will that cost?

    Thanks

    Hey Tom,

    Unless you have a sweet deal with Google, I wouldn't use the API for adding keywords. Just put them into AdWords Editor and upload. Here's the API Rate sheet from AdWords Support. API Rate Sheet

    Cheers

    Exactly, I think the api is best utilized for account management via bid adjustments and things like that...

    There is no need to use API to add and edit campaigns. This is costly and easily avoidable with adwords editor.

    APIs should only be used when making bulk changes, bulk = 100k+. Otherwise, AdWords Editor is the best way...
