It was 'Gazchap Girlfriend' but I did think about 'Stuart Campbell'

A massive £1.39 so far.
And I will probably pass the costs onto a client as research, which, in a way, is true.

Can I be 'research' please Grimothy?

Only, I spent my pocket money for the week. And mrsA won't give me any more.

Please, sir, can I have some more, sir?

And then, it'll be like Great Expectations and stuff, only yo're not a prisoner and I'm not a small boy playing a graveyard, but then I'll get to marry Gwyneth paltrow and stuff. It'd be good.

No handouts I'm afraid, I'm fucking poor at the moment.

[edit]Oh, if you're research then you want to give me money! Sure, how much have you got?

£3.87. And 2 passport sized photos of me, and one of MrsA, looking like Thelma from ScoobyDo.

Depressingly, all the accounts on my online banking thing currently have a '-' in front of them, and it was payday yesterday.

Well quite, Sterling is such a tawdry, common currency. Send Jeeves down to the vault to fetch some more Kruggerands.

What's the score?

7 to Jonarob, 0 to everyone else. 0% conversion rate so far, though.

Thinking about it, we should perhaps have had a special page, and not just dumped people onto the forum index. Hey ho.

We could all write reviews of games and Dimrill could do some of his skillo drawings! Why, it'd be super!

Really? 4000-odd impressions in the first hour, and then nothing in the two hours since? Or do you just mean no change in the number of clickthroughs?

It seems to only update when it feels like it. Or perhaps it's trying to make sure the massive £40 budget lasts for a whole month.

It's not real-time. It's the same with Analytics. Updates every hour or so in bulk, rather than every few minutes.

Not really. I've upped the cost per click to £1 and that's let words like 'internet' through. Impressions seem to have stopped.

I'll add "excellent free porn", even though it's not true.

The content network stuff appears to have generated 16 clicks, compared to 10 from google itself - so why was it turned off again?

Grim... has sent me an update. "and like" is in the lead now, with 12 clicks. "one inch a pound" has a 100% conversion rate, at three clicks!

Surprising really since the sweet as anything butter wouldn't melt offended by Ross and Brand Georgina is on the front cover of Nuts this week. Presumably there explaining how she likes flower arranging.

Certain terms cost alot of money to get a decent ranking.

Also adwords looks at your website and looks at how relevant it is to the search term. So a high bid alone will not guarantee a good placing.

I pay as much as three quid a click for some search terms!

edit: I think the real winner is "one inch a pound". Click through rate of 75% is unfathomably good. Shame it only had four impressions.

Hmm,

I'll have a think. Who is supplying this prize? I'm not that bothered really - I think a new competition should be in order. Any member who signs up in the next 24 hours is entered into a DVD prize draw.
