Lesson #29: Don’t Only Run On Exact Match
We’ve talked about not running too many keywords (if any) on broad match, but recently we’ve seen a lot of cases of the inverse – people wanting to run only on exact match. Don’t do this either! If you run too many keywords on exact match, you won’t be able to gain any query information …
Lesson #28: Don’t Turn On Conversion Optimization Too Soon
When setting up an AdWords campaign, it is very tempting to check the box to optimize based on conversion data immediately.

Lesson #25: Look to Impression Share For Missed Opportunities
Impression Share may be one of the most useful and least utilized metrics in search marketing – exact match impression share, that is.

Lesson #21: Bid Rules Are Not Set It And Forget It
Yesterday, we discussed bid rules. But while bid rules can carry out a logic indefinitely, they do not regulate themselves.
