Question about adwords search partner network

[Jardini]

Do you guys have search partner network enabled in your campaign or do you purely advertise on google search engine only?

The reason I am asking is because I have seen conversions coming from places like aol.com, nextag.com bizrates.com and etc.

However, there are a lot of people playing arbitrage and they put up large numbers of sites with only ads from google search network (not content network). I personally dont like my ads to be shown on those sites and I think they are wasting my clicks.

I tried to test, but google does not allow you to have campaign with only search partner enabled.

So, back to my question, do you guys advertise on search partner network?

i usually disable it. If you want to run it, try it on a seperate campaign/account so you can compare the results of the partner network vs google itself. If you run them on the same campaign you won't be able to determine which works better or if one is worse then the other,

Except you can't have only the search network enabled.

OT: Just enable the search network, pull your stats and see whether it's working out for you or not.
