Words of Caution about Google Adwords Resellers

With so many Google Adwords Resellers coming out of the woodwork in the past couple of years, it is more and more important that you check out the company's credentials and, equally as important, what they will be doing for you, in detail, and, how they will be doing it.

Few will be very transparent, but without transparency, who do you trust.

---

If any company promises they can get you to the top of the Search - then they are being either really optimistic, really cunning (deceitful) or they will cheat. There is NO way to make such a guarantee.

Nobody can guarantee that your advert will appear at the top unless they are prepared to bid to an unlimited click value - and that would not make good business sense.

Unwanted phrases
However, it is most likely that they would only make such a guarantee of they target very specific phrases - less likely to be searched for - therefore completely unprofitable for you.

I suggest writing down, and asking them, all your questions and insist that they spell it out for you, exactly, on their company headed, paper, with their signature and date.

Yahoo 421 4.7.0 [TS02]

I got a very annoying, and upsetting error from Yahoo today.
"

Delay reason: SMTP error from remote mail server after initial connection:
   host f.mx.mail.yahoo.com [98.137.54.237]: 421 4.7.0 [TS02] Messages from [ip hidden] temporarily deferred due to user complaints - 4.16.56.1; see http://postmaster.yahoo.com/421-ts02.html

"

Here's what I sent to Yahoo today:
What the heck did I do to get this error? I innocently emailed someone on your system. My IP address and my hosts IP address are NOT blacklisted ANYWHERE.
I emailed 2 people on Yahoo this weekend, one of them (not the one pasted above) is my own mother in Canada who has recently had a bloody stroke, but your cyber police decide that my mother can't have my bloody email... WHY? TELL ME THE TRUTH. WHY DID YOUR SERVER PREVENT ME FROM EMAILING MY SICK MOTHER?

I AM FUMING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do NOT SPAM ANYONE.
I do not EXCESSIVELY USE YOUR Bloody servers.

I just want to send an email to TWO people, is that too much?
