So when I first started AM I learned a lot from this forum. Lots of techniques, lots of ideas, lots of things. But there were little tricks and smaller things that aren't really mentioned here that can help a lot. So I figured we could make a list. I'll start.

When writing ads capitalize each letter in your description/title/display url

My advertisement title
My advertisement Description
www.mysite.com/myfolder

becomes

My Advertisement Title
My Advertisement Description
www.MySite.com/MyFolder

I don't even know if there are more of these types of things, I just know that when I learned the above trick it helped my conversions a lot, and it seems like common sense, but I never would have thought of it if someone didn't tell me.
 


Good tip. However, this doesn't always lead to better conversions. If given the opportunity, you should test different combinations of capitalization.
 
More tips:

Don't forget to include keywords in your ads as they are shown in bold.

Use keywords in your URL's using sub-domains, directories, for that same bolding reason.

Don't forget about keyword insertion... {Keyword: Default Text}

Note that these are things you should test, and not things you should assume work better.
 
holy shit. earth shattering revelation you got there.

Doesn't Adwords tell you to Capitalize words when optimize your campaign?

Like:
KeywordOneTwoThree.com

I need to try the two "arrow" theories.
 
Sorry, I don't get what's so funny about the non-witty posts from fuckwads making fun of bubbles. Hell, the thread title even says this is about really obvious things that may be missed.

There have been many times where I made a tiny change on a site that shot revenue up. +rep Bubbles
