MenuIs it possible to create Google Shopping Ad Campaign for a keyword that there's no Shopping Listing?
Answers
I have no experience with this but my initial thinking is that you might have a setting that needs to be set correctly so you might want to double check all the settings and options. The reason I feel like this might be the case is because I would think most terms would provide at least some type of result. But since the Shopping system is completely separate from the regular search results, maybe they are tighter with the search results and require some degree of relevancy before they feel justified in charging the advertiser for that impression or click. With the standard organic google search results, they're not hurting anyone monetarily by providing completely irrelevant results.
One method that is often overlooked by many is the use of Google Shopping Ads. In fact, it is so overlooked, that Google Shopping Ads only amount to 20% of retail paid search clicks – so there is plenty of opportunities there for you.

Hi there!
I don't believe there is any hard and fast rule for a minimum number of listings required for a keyword to be eligible for Shopping. I don't believe Google has never publicly said so, but I would imagine it's more to do with search volume.
If you really believe in the keyword, I'd suggest giving a go with exact match bidding through Search. If you can get it anywhere near profitable using Search, you can be confident it'll be profitable using Shopping and it's worth your time.
What's the monthly search volume? If it's significant, then I'd reach out to Google support and ask why it's not appearing for Shopping.
Either way, it's worth keeping the campaign live - if you have decent search volume Google will eventually decide it's worth a go on Shopping. Even if the term is not appearing, it may appear for others that are similar.
I'd also keep an eye on the time since launch. Usually with a new campaign and product on Google Shopping it can take up to two weeks (at least!) before you see any meaningful impressions.
I'd also recommend looking into Bing, is Shopping enabled for that term over there?

How can I earn $2,000 monthly using Google adsense?
1. What kind of industry should I consider so that I can get easy traffic in a very, very short amount of time, considering the fact that my only objective is to reach $2000 monthly. Health/wellness/nutrition/fitness are usually quick, high-interest industries. Definitely high-competition, though. Saturated market already. 2. What could be the most efficient way to get traffic in this case Efficient? Buy it from Adwords. COST efficient? Organic/SEO. But organic takes time and lots of energy in content production and promotion. 3. Should I use Wordpress blog or design my website from scratch (any other suggestions?) I prefer WordPress for nearly everything. Unless you have some specific reason not to, I recommend choosing WordPress. 4. Is there another easy way to get money for my website apart from Google adsense? Yes, definitely. Adsense is actually a VERY low payout method of monetizing traffic. Look into CPA marketing, or cost-per-acquisition. Affiliate marketing sites are also good options. Both take time and effort, however. $2k/mo in web traffic revenue is a lot for solo publishers. That's an ambitious goal. Chase it, definitely. But think outside the box a bit. Adsense won't get you to $2k/mo anytime soon. If there were (legitimate) get-rich-quick schemes lying around on the web, we'd all be doing them!TK

I have a software company client who has a problem with brand hijackers in Google Adwords. How can they take them on and drive them out of business?
I have worked with a client with a similar issue. Their competitor was bidding on the brand name of my client. You will have to donate some Adwords spent and create “branded campaign” where you focus on bidding on your client’s business name. Your client should have a high quality score for their brand keywords since their website should but an authority on the brand name. As far as stopping a competitor from bidding on the name the most you can do is send a cease and desist letter and I would only recommend this if the brand name has a registered trademark.NA

How would you go about deciding on keywords for an iPad app that targets legal professionals?
The only AdWords keywords that will perform well on search are ones that directly describe your product, e.g. "document syncing." To target a segment like legal professionals, use AdWords' Contextual Targeting Tool to build ad groups to target websites that your target market would visit, e.g. anything related to law.FP

Will using both Google Adwords Auto-Tagging AND Manual Tagging with UTM variables create any tracking problems in Google Analytics?
I've done a lot of complex analytics installations, usually cross-domain and including AdWords and manual tagging with conversion tracking of ecommerce transactions. The gclid by default will override the manual UTM values in Analytics so that is what you are looking for. If you are just grabbing the manual tags from the URL for your own purpose, this should be OK. However, if you at some point want to import conversions (say) connected to your manual tag, then you would want to enable UTM overriding the gclid: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1033981?hl=en. Do you have AdWords and Analytics accounts linked? Where and how are you tracking commerce conversions, if you are? Do you feel you are getting the insights you need from your current custom reporting? Let me know if I can help with a call about those or further optimization of your analytics capture.
