Overture Question - GoFuckYourself.com

FuqALot · 06-02-2005, 07:44 AM

During overture signup, the first thing you have to do is to select a country. What do they mean with that? The country where I am from, or the country im targetting?

Anyway, I selected US and then later on during 'my details', I entered Netherlands, and all went fine. Until I phoned yahoo to activate my account and they said I had to call the usa, since it's a US based account.

The question is, what's the point of having a 'US' account when you are not from the US? (not mentioning the $25 free promo you get with us accounts

), and do you need to be from the US to have a US account? Any canadians with US accounts here?

It would suprise me if this thread will get more than 0 replies :P

Wait until you start submitting to Overture. If you think the account creation was odd, you're gonna love the keyword submission and rejection phase

WiredGuy,

All of my keywords were approved the other day

. Pretty amazed by the amount of interesting keywords (for me) that are still only a few cents for top positions hehe.

You had 100% of your submitted keywords approved and for only a few cents? This can't be the same Overture we're talking about, lol.

Yeah the amount is amazing.. But we're probably not pushing the same things.
