Adwords CPC content Ads Test Closed

Filed under: AdWords — Kyle M Brown @ 7:27 am

Adwords CPC content Ads test closed. Although I am still participating in the Beta. I will not be posting any further information about it here. The following three paragraphs are my exact response to Google for this feature.

One of my biggest complaints is not the CPC content feature but that lack of tools in the content ads site selection area.

The number of impressions a site receives is not enough data. Also when viewing the sites its sometimes impossible to even find out where the ads are showing or if they are showing any Google ads at all.

For this feature to work, I think we need to see more tools for site selection and better metrics about the sites that host the ads, such as where the ads are located on the site and the number of page views per ad unit. I believe the tool set needs to more closely resemble that of search ads. Lets share some of that AdSense data and make this thing work.
