Just heard on the news that Gold went up $10 an ounce today.... Did a search for gold prices for more info and the attached came up.
I clicked through on the "seo gold" and it is owned by Elsevier - there are a series of questions; budget, keywords, target area etc then name and address.
Is this not a bit shotgun targetting?
interesting. A friend of mine used to be involved with them until about 2 or 3 years ago - pre-acquisition. Quite a successful model they had (at the time at least, don't know now).
I don't get them showing up. Possible its expanded broad match without much negative matching I guess.
I can't imagine that having a remotely positive ROI. The only thing I could think of is that it could fool the very foolish into thinking they are really good at SEO because they "rank" so well for a competitive term.
do they have a 'gold, silver and bronze' pricing structure by any chance? If so I suspect Google Adwords Expansion team have pursuaded them to do a test.

We once picked an adwords client who sold a monitored burglar alarm system.
Google Adwords team had steered him towards throwing thousands at keyphrases like ::
anxiety
worry
stress
... on all broad match.
What a cunch of bunts.
I've never seen a google expanded list which doesn't make me say "bunts", frankly. I'm sure someone somewhere must have. Mayby.
