    Facebook is completely changing the way they display ads. Now text is to the left, and picture is to the right. Ads are also mixed in with recommended groups and events your friends are attending. Instead of three things, theres at least 8 different items on the sidebar now, a mix of...

    No More Grants on Facebook

    And I called it... Just got an email from my AM at Facebook...they will no longer be allowing grant ads. Looks like too many idiots complained.

    How Would You Destroy an AdWords Competitor?

    Say you had an AdWords competitor that was beating you- showing up higher than you for all of your keywords for the same offer. Without resorting to blatantly illegal stuff like click fraud or DDoS, how would you completely eliminate them? Raise your bids and run the offer at a loss until the...

    What Percent of Your Campaigns Fail?

    This might be good inspiration. When you test offers with a new campaign, what percentage of them are unprofitable.

    I know an easy way to make more money from a campaign is to ask your AM for a payout bump. What volume would you say would be enough to ask for a pay bump? Say I'm doing 100 zip submits a day @ $1.20 each for a network. Is this enough to ask for an increase to $1.25 or $1.30?

    WTF Yahoo

    Yahoo just killed all my zip submit campaigns. Editorial Status says So basically, no zip submits. I expect this data collection bullshit from Google, but Yahoo? Anyone else get this? Any way to get around this, or am I just unlucky that editors happened to scrutinize my campaigns?

    Google Christmas WTF- This is Big

    Quick, go to Google and search for anything containing the keyword "Christmas". Notice anything different? Can you say super-high CTR? And didn't Google disallow placing images next to ads? I guess their own policies don't apply to themselves. I wonder if this change will become more...

    How long-tail is too long-tail?

    I'm doing intense keyword research, and wondering how long-tail is too long-tail. I'm at over 25,000 keywords now for a single niche from every possible source. How do you decide which keywords to use? 4 words? 5 words? 10 searches a day? 1 search a day? Is every keyword worth pursuing, or do...
