Good to see you back James! Great article and I totally agree. While I’m still struggling to learn all about this business, I have pretty much given up on ranking in Google. I am working on other ways of getting traffic and they have worked better than the old way. Things are changing so fast, it is almost impossible to keep up, but I learn so much from people like you! Thanks for some great information.

Good to know I wasn’t blowing smoke about AdWords. :)

Everyone I know personally that’s using them vs. other ad networks swears by their results. Love your case study, BTW, glad to link to it.

That’s good to hear, RT – and I know the Frasier you’re talking about, he has a pretty unique keyword tool. I haven’t used it but hear good things about the guy.

Thanks for the mention, James. That article by James Penn was really eye opening!

I’m looking forward to reporting tomorrow on part 2 of my “Battle of the Ad Networks”. But I have to say that unfortunately, as much as I hate giving my money to Google, AdWords is quite impressive.

And as you know, I’m not giving up on SEO either. The game, however, has been upped big time!

I don’t follow numbers, but I’m pretty sure the latest Penguin touched down on October 5th. I saw increases across the board within a couple of days without doing anything special. Comments from a guy name Frasier seemed to confirm it.
