Google Boost

[anytimeflowers]

I'm considering trying Google Boost, as opposed to adwords, but wonder if anybody else has been the guinea pig yet. I have done neither.

Read about it here if you have never heard of it.

Someone from Google called today wanting to sign us up for boost. Would really like to hear how it works for others before I sign up.

Its basically another way of doing adwords.

Except well......

Lets see you know how those guys call up and say they want to manage your google adwords account for you?

I think and feel that this is google's version of managing your account for you. I tried it for about 5 seconds and relized what it was doing. No thanks!!

PPC is and can be expensive so if you think google is going to do it better then what you are already doing give it a try.

Besides their recent failure of the business tags tell me they have way too many buttons and switches and business just can't keep up with all of these changes. I loved the business tags but hey I guess I was the only one using it.

I used the tag as well and loved it. Too bad they canceled it

I was using the yellow tag as well, just felt like boost is a way for them to get more money. Think we'll stay away from this one.

Google boost is a ad that runs along the right side of the page along with Fromyouflowers, Proflowers, 1800, TF and FTD. You pay per click, I think I would rather spend my money elsewhere. There are already 2 other shop advertising there that are not from my area, but are about 10 miles away.

Also, they suggested I spend 330.00 per month, based on what other advertisers were spending.
