    What was your PPC horror story?
    I have a friend who let someone run a campaign for her and she gave them her credit card #. She didn't specify a limit. When it was all said and done, she was out over $10k!!:eek:

    It can easily happen, especially with Adwords.

    My horror story is spending about $400 per conversion (when I started in the industry a while back)... My competitors were spending $30... I've learned a lot since then..
