Bugs In The Offline Google AdWords Editor

Google placement targeting problems with AdWords offline editor

I have been using the off line downloadable Google AdWords Editor to build and manage my campaigns for the last week. The software works awesome, its a huge time saver. This is one problem though…. When I tried to build Google placement targeted campaigns I could build them but I couldn’t upload the campaigns to my AdWords account. And also another bug is that you cannot do CPC (cost per click) for placement targeted campaigns, you can only bid on CPM (cost per impression). My solution? I just did the placement target campaigns online in my AdWords account. I hope the AdWords team will see this.

Other Google Placement Problems

A weird thing about placement targeting sometimes they begin running and others time they just site there. There is no explanation why the ad group isn’t running either. I don’t understand Google, I love doing placement targeting campaigns I just wish they would work all the time or at least tell me what the hell is going on. If I did something wrong , inform me. I am trying to spend money and I am left in the dark without a clue sometimes. If other brick and mortar companies ran their business this way, they would be out of business. Google please start to respect your customers more please! We made you who you are, we spend $1000s every day. All we want is what we deserve.

Work? No Not Today, I’m Playing Hooky

Some days I would rather do jack, as in nothing. Today I went to “my office” (Burnaby Public Library) to work on my pay per click campaigns. I managed to get work done then a mild headache got a hold of me. The headache was enough to to irritate me that I didn’t feel like working. I headed home, my wife and kids are out and now I have the full house to myself. I was hoping they would be home but oh well.

I made a few phone calls and here I am blogging, while I wait for my newest downloaded movie (Hero Wanted) to get burned onto DVD. Hero Wanted stars Ray Liotta and Cuba Gooding Jr., two great actors in my opinion. Apparently the movie isn’t the greatest, from some reviews I have read but many times I don’t agree the review that I have read so whatever.

You have to love those torrent sites, you can get anything you want in no time. Oops I mean they are good for the people who use them, I would never do something like that. Pay for your DVDs! smily face

Some Random Images I Took in Vancouver/Burnaby

A few random photos I have taken the last little while. Gotta love digital cameras, especially Canon SD750! Clear, bright images every single time.

Remember a blog is a place to put whatever you want, it doesn’t need to make sense or follow any type of agenda. This is my outlet, the last thing I want is a “make money online blog” or ANYTHING related to work. I keep it personal so I can get things off of my chest. I love to ramble on about nothing, it’s what I do best. Thanks for listening, now go to bed…

The Best Place For Free Wireless Internet, The Library

I have to say I love the library internet setup. The Burnaby library has about 20 flat panle desktops that you can use for free. I brought my own laptop and plugged it into the wall, right next to a huge window overlooking the soccer filed, as well as a sweet view of the North Shore mountains, awesome. It is the perfect place to do internet marketing, I can focus much better.

Why I never thought of this sooner I don’t know. I have a rent free office complete with a view. What else can you ask for? This makes my life much less stressful. I can bring home the bacon without worry.

My New Office, Grand Opening Tommorrow! The Burnaby Library

It looks like I may have found my new free wireless internet connection permanently. I am going to be working from the Burnaby public library starting tommorrow. They offer free wireless internet and you can plug your cord into the wall, so no worries about a dead laptop battery. My new hours are from 7-9:45 am from home, then 10 am – 4 pm from the library. I don’t need to waste money on an office space, and the library is guaranteed to be 100% quite. It’s going to be much easier to concentrate and I look forward to getting more done with much less distractions.

I checked online and did a search for free wireless internet and 99% were coffee shops. I think the library is a much better choice than coffee shops. If you really need to get things done, the library has more comfortable seating and much more quiet.

If I want to make my goal of all $100,000 a month I really need to get rocking.
