interesting. but the enviro looks stiff for a google spirited event even on the serious topic of adwords - why is the speaker in a suit and tie?

is there a video archive of the talk anywhere online for those who did not attend?

@ Murshed
Hi Murshed, I understand that you were having difficulties advertising using English Ad Text, it gets hard to diagnose the why’s and what’s but as general rule, we suggest that you target very specific locations (target US by states or cities versus the whole 51 states) also use a comprehensive list of keyword per ad group (versus using tens and hundreds of keywords).

Check out this help center link: http://adwords.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=tips.html

Also from within your account, you can click on help and ask the help of our support team and they will give you tips for your account’s specifics.

Thank you Murshed, the problem happened when i tried to embed flash objects to this post, we are working to fix this problem, i am sorry for any inconvenience.

As for Adwords, did u chose the right keywords relevant to your business? the same for your text ad?

PPC in arabic is cheaper bc there r much less advertisers compared to English.

I have emailed Mr.Darwish hope he will answer your Adwords comment soon.

i am using FF and Arabcrunch hangs after loading the page .. it reads js.sitemeter.com at the bottom and i need to click on the back button and stop loading before it ends to be able to read the page …

is this thing related to Google Analytics?

i tried Adwords for arabic and english adds .. to be honest the English adds didn’t work well .. the results were not good .. many people viewed the ads but a small fraction clicked on them .. although i’ve selected countries like the US and others ..

but the arabic adds were perfect compared to the english ones .. it was a translation of the english and targeted Saudi and Egypt .. the results were very good .. prices per click was also better than the english version ..

just thought to share my experience:)
