No Optimize for You, Human!
July 21st, 2007Optimize my Adwords campaign? One click? How long has this been here? What will the God of Search advise?
Well, I’ll be a mummified monk!

Quoth the oracle:
“Your campaign exceeds the limit of keywords and ad groups that the Campaign Optimizer can accommodate …”
But, see, I have a only a few thousand keywords, and fewer than a hundred ad groups. I’ve heard people talk about their million keyword campaigns!
Which reminds me of something I read once:

That’s what they tell you, just as you’re about to add keywords for an Adwords ad group.
So, ergo, therefore, unless those million-keyword people are losing money (yeah, right), then either:
- Google’s software is broken and they just forgot to tell anyone
- Google really believes that it’s better to have fewer keywords, but the moneymakers have LOTS of them
What’s the disconnect? I don’t think Google’s right about this.
