Don't know what I was smoking the other day.
Brian, I'll send you the QS example off-list. It's a new company
entering a pretty brand-dominated market. Competitors with deep
pockets, and probably paying Google tens of millions a year in PPC
spend. Not likely to compete for the big traction phrases without
spending huge and even then probably no way to get favorable positions
without really high CPCs. Entering the market via less competitive
phrases is working fine, but it still ticks me off to see "OK" QS for
terms that are very relevant, targeted, and harmonized with ad
creative and landing pages. I shouldn't have to make a lot of noise to
get Google to "fix" our campaign.
Thanks for the Acquisio feedback - definitely interested in using
them.
