AdWords Expert Perry Marshall Predicts Boon for Advertisers in Wake of Early
Google Earnings Report
Shunned AdWords Advertisers Likely to Be Shown the Welcome Mat
PR Newswire
CHICAGO, Oct. 19, 2012
CHICAGO, Oct. 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Nine percent may not sound like much,
but when tech giant Google is the company in question, a stock price decline
of nine percent equals more than 20 billion dollars. That decline happened
after Google accidentally released its third quarter earnings report several
hours early - a report that showed a sizable falloff in revenue and profit.
Wall Street being what it is, the response was immediate and profound.
The effects of this snafu will ripple beyond short-term share prices. Google
will likely have to be less restrictive in its advertiser vetting process. The
company may even offer incentives for previously banned advertisers to return
to the platform. Prior to this latest sour earnings report, Google had been
notoriously cavalier in its banning of "edgy" advertisers.
"Google has been killing businesses," said Dave Chappelle, editor at
Securebuzz.ca. "Business owners who've been spending thousands of dollars with
Google AdWords one day receive a curt notification that their accounts have
been suspended - and there's no chance for appeal, or even explanation."
Bestselling author and Google AdWords expert Perry Marshall
(www.perrymarshall.com) sees a silver lining to all this restructuring and
retooling. In a recent blog post, he explains why Google will have to
reconsider its scorched-earth policy toward advertisers in health, diet and
business opportunity niches.
"In the past, Google erred on the side of caution in terms of banning
questionable AdWords accounts," said Marshall. "In the wake of this smack-down
from Wall Street, Google has to make tweaks to that philosophy. The system
will have to be more discriminating, which means not banning every advertiser
in an entire category simply because a few are bogus or fraudulent.
"Wall Street is a strange place; Google's being punished for factors beyond
its control. However, that could be good news for legitimate advertisers who
have run afoul of the search giant in the past. If you're an advertiser who
has been dumped by Google, now is the time to see if you can get back on
board."
Marshall and Chappelle maintain their belief that Google AdWords is still the
best platform for e-commerce and Internet advertising. The company's
lackluster earnings report is a bump in the road for Google, but for
advertisers, it might just be an advantageous bump.
