Yeah, I was shocked to learn this. I didn't read it anywhere before being
told, but there it was clear as day on one of the pages! Don't forget: for
some terms, you may want to include both the term unbracketed AND the term
bracketted.

the introduction of their association listings for Adwords, and this is

I was told. I then changed all of my more obscure terms so that they

obscure terms, whereas before, the association listings made it the case
that other advertisers showed up too. Does that make sense?

Didn't know that. I'll try and see what happens. Thanks James. Obviously,
there's
a priority between the keywords, which I think is not too good documented
by
Google Adwords.

Thanks

For the life of me, though, I don't see how using bracketed keywords
keeps other people's ads out. Must be a coincidence.
