When I type in search phrases I get a combination of local agencies, national accounts with 800 numbers, and then links to sites like Netquote were you type in your info and get quotes from multiple agents. Been there done those. For 149 per month I can get 12 key phrases and two different cities and no additional cost per hit. MTK 01-21-2011, 03:19 PM Honestly, adwords can be very tricky unless you have some serious time and energy to devote to analyzing your results and playing around with the best keywords. I would seek out other forms of advertising myself. firstdown 01-21-2011, 04:24 PM Well I have talked to two other agents who advertise with the companies that I have talked with. On was very positive and the other was not so positive. It seems if I use a company for my placement if they track it properly then the results are better. At $149 a month I think its worth giving it a try to see what happens. I'm also hiring several telemarketers to cold call. I'm not a big fan of that but I have talked to several agents that are having good success doing that. If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears. Matty when I post here I see a pop up banner for Netquotes which is a site that sells insurance leads. I'm guess that is not random and is some how targeting me in the insurance business. Is that the case? Pretty slick. MTK 01-21-2011, 04:26 PM Yeah the google ads that pop up here are based on keywords in our posts. firstdown 01-21-2011, 05:26 PM Yeah the google ads that pop up here are based on keywords in our posts. It has to key off other stuff then that. I get that Netquote add all the time so it must have someway of relating me to insurance. hooskins 01-21-2011, 05:32 PM big brother knows what you do and is selling that information to companies. be scared! firstdown 01-21-2011, 05:34 PM big brother knows what you do and is selling that information to companies. be scared!
