Details Details Details: AdWords & Details

I love AdWords! I hate AdWords! It's all about the details. Meaning
  • Do you know your keywords?  Really know your keywords: which ones are "transactional," which ones are "converters," which ones are "dogs?"

Quality Issues on Social Media Marketing Workbook?
