Adwords & Iframes, Outsmart your Competition

If you’re new to Adwords you may not be aware of this simple little pierce of information:

Two Ads that have the same display URL will never show at the same time, only the ad with the most relevancy will.

This in itself proves a problem, especially for affiliates that are all trying to promote the same URL.

Lets say for example you are trying to promote PPC on Earners Blog here. Your ad may look something like this:

Now what happens if I’m already promoting Earners Blog myself? That means that we both can’t promote the same destination URL. The destination URL must be the final URL that the user ends up at which in this case is http://www.earnersblog.com

However, all is not lost. There is a way for you to still promote that URL:

1. Firstly you need to have your own domain.
2. Create a subdomain similar to the destination url (i.e. earnersblog.blogspot.com)
3. Show a mirror of the original page in an Iframe

To show the original page in an iframe copy this code into an file called index.htm, replace the values to your own affiliate sites or the site you want to show in the iframe then place it in the subdomain.

Now when you set up a new creative in Adwords make your destination url whatever the subdomain is & also your display url will be the same. Now you can compete with other affiliates without worrying about CTR & your ad not showing.
