Way back in 2012, I published a post with my favorite PPC bookmarks. Well, 2 years is an eternity in PPC, so I thought I’d update the list. Here are my 6 favorite PPC resources that you need to bookmark in 2014.
3 of the links from 2012 are still on my list this year. If you’re not using these PPC resources, what are you waiting for?
Modified Broad Match Tool from Acquisio. This tool enables you to paste a list of keywords, tell it which ones you want to add the broad match modifier, and spits them out with a keystroke. It’s a huge timesaver and I use it at least weekly.
Ion Interactive’s Landing Page Checklist. While the original link from 2012 no longer exists, use this helpful post on their blog to ensure your PPC landing pages are designed for conversion.
Google Analytics URL Builder. A good way to make sure your custom URLs for Google Analytics are formatted properly.
Here are 3 great PPC resources I’ve found over the past couple years that I refer to again and again.
Visual Website Optimizer statistical significance tool. This downloadable spreadsheet will help you test ad copy efficiently.
How to Exclude Mobile Apps on the Google Display Network. This post by Bryant Garvin at the Get Found First blog is a must-bookmark for anyone using the Google Display Network.
Optmyzr Free Adwords Scripts. Started by former Googler Frederick Vallaeys, Optmyzr is an Adwords Scripts company. They offer some time-saving free scripts on their site.
Happy bookmarking! What are your favorite PPC resources? Share in the comments!
I’ve had more success with http://www.freeadwordsscripts.com/ than the Optmyzr site.
And you also forgot your negative Keyword list http://www.clixmarketing.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/worlds-biggest-negative-keyword-list.txt.
Thanks Ben! These are great as well and I know I use both of these frequently.
Thank you! A couple others I’ve started using more in the last couple years include: SEM Rush and http://www.ispionage.com — Joe Putnam does a great job editing the iSpionage blog. Great list, Melissa!
Thanks Thomas! We also use SEMrush and I’m a big fan.
Great resources indeed. Thanks for sharing..
