When possible, have your site/subdomain hosted in the country you're targeting. This isn’t always an option. It may make more sense for your sites to all be hosted at the same place, in which case you'll want to make use of your Google Webmaster account. Whether you use a ccTLD or a subdomain, you can have a separate Webmaster tools account for each. Verify your accounts and then select which country you want to serve in its settings. *Tip: This helps ensure you can be found when searchers decide to use only country-targeted search results. However, it is not an appropriate setting for just foreign language-specific targeting and optimization because you don't want to exclude other countries who also speak that language. If searchers use the default “Web,” Google will search the entire Web, in which case it’s a win-win for you.

Google AdWords: Separate metrics for Google and search partners are now available As reported on the Inside AdWords blog, and in the spirit of transparency, Google is finally breaking out stats between Google Search and the Google Search Network. I’ve actually run mirrored campaigns with each option just to be able to see the difference between the two search vehicles. I’m glad Google has now opened this up to us. According to the Google blog: We’re happy to let you know that we’ve changed the way your Campaign Summary and Ad Group Summary pages present statistics in order to give you additional level of detail into your campaign performance. Previously, these pages divided statistics into two categories: search, which included Google and search partners, and the content network. Now, we show one set of statistics for Google and another set aggregating search partner performance. Search partners include AOL, Ask.com, and many other search sites around the web. You can view ad group or campaign performance at a summary level, or broken down by different combination of Google, our search partners, and our content network. Additionally, separate Google and aggregate search partner statistics will soon be available in the Report Center. Click image above for full screen version

In depth: the ultimate search marketing optimization guide, part 1: the basics In last week's article, I mentioned a post called the AdCenter Optimization Quick Reference Guide on the adCenter Community Site by Shefali Singla. It has some basic tips and tricks (albeit Microsoft specific) for optimizing accounts. I remember having something similar when I worked at a search agency some years ago, so I thought I'd expand upon that listing, make it more platform generic, and hopefully create a good checklist of things to think about when doing your daily optimizing.

"As part of Google's recent acquisition of DoubleClick, the Performics affiliate network is now a part of Google. To consolidate our offerings, we will be phasing out the AdWords pay-per-action beta, and the product will be retired on during the last week of August. Pay-per-action campaigns and all related data will be removed from all AdWords accounts the last week of October." So, if you have any CPA business in AdWords right now, it would seem that you should make sure to back up all of your data immediately... A follow-up announcement on the AdWords blog unveils the next step: "The Google Affiliate Network, previously known as DoubleClick Performics Affiliate, has been in operation since 1998. Through the network, advertisers can open their ads to all publishers in the network, or select specific publishers that match their criteria. You can set a CPA for your entire campaign or establish custom payment schedules for specific publishers -- such as a higher CPA for a particularly optimal placement. The Google Affiliate Network is currently a separate product from AdWords and AdSense. As with AdSense, publishers must apply and be accepted into the network." You can check out the home page for the new Google Affiliate Network here. I think this will be a very smart media channel and I've already signed up to learn more and get started.
