50..............

I check a couple of times per hour sometimes, lol. So I picked it up right away.. I just got the email a few minutes ago however.

I did notice the minimum is 1cent, but I'm sure theres not many keywords/quality ads that will be allowed such a low bid. Some of mine they wanted $1.00, $.50, $.20, $.10.. all had a bid of $.05 before the change and were getting clicks. I deleted some of them, bid higher on a few.

Plus the Daily Budget doesnt function properly if you have more than 1 ad per ad group. It runs through the daily budget straight away instead of spreading it out. They suggested that I pause and resume my ads manually, hehe.. Sweet. I woke up this morning and my entire daily budget was almost consumed, and with their stats being 3 hours behind, I was basically out of money by 6am.. doh..

fair point but thats a bit simple dood

you're assuming that a billion dollar company hasnt made some serious inroad into calculating that the net gains outweigh the net losses.

same old story. overture did it and it worked for them. google know they can do it and it wont hurt them. easy to suppose that theyve done the math on it.

it sucks ass

It's clearly in their rules that pop-ups and dialers AFTER a landingpage ARE a violation. You've nobody but yourself to blame for this.

guess will have to see how it plays out.. noticed some spikes in my traffic today.

seems like the minimum bids were significantly lowered compared to 3 days ago, on the same campaigns

looks like bad news to me...

Even more cash for those who have TONS of adsense pages. If anyone wants tons of mainstream custom articles geared toward adsense keywords, hit me up. I can set you up with a cheap monthly package for 2500 word output per day or per project. info AT webmasterlabor.com or ICQ below.
