By socialize I mean go to dinners or parties or similar events where a large group of people meet to socialize. Social networking can often be a very similar experience. I can remember where, in past years, a doctor would never reveal his/her occupation. If they did, they would spend the evening doing on the spot diagnosis of sore backs and aching legs and so on. Social networking can be a similar experience.

Not necessarily. Over at PPC Discussions, Jeremy Mayes talks about a company that spends $2-$4 daily. That's less than $150 per month. And it's producing an ROI. This is really nothing spectacular. A lot of small businesses are using AdWords and other PPC advertising models to turn a profit. You don't need a big budget to make money on your PPC campaigns.

Mark Twain once quipped that he'd have written a shorter letter, but he didn't have the time." Twain has always made people laugh, but his insight is apt. Every good writer knows that it takes time to write short, terse, concise content. It takes more time than writing long and verbose content because good editing requires cutting stuff out that isn't necessary. With PPC ad copywriting, you've got to make sure that every word counts.

Having a link that points to a site or page that no longer exists is a waste of a link.

With your negative keywords you don't want to include an exact match keyword in your keywords list then cancel it out with the same exact match as a negative keyword.
