Politicians Just Don't Get Search!

Email This Entry

Posted by Adam Viener

Ok, so I procrastinated on deciding who to vote for today, I have been busy with my affiliate business. So I thought, hey, wouldn't it be nice to find out of there are some local politicians who get search, maybe they would be the ones to vote for.

So I said to myself, "Self, if there is a local politician doing local PPC advertising, they got my vote!"

It wasn't to be this year. Other than the term "vote" which came up with an ad to join the libertarian party, there were no candidates to be found. I typed in "who to vote for", "Virginia senator", "Virginia senate", and finally I thought I had stuck gold, I typed in "Virginia Candidates" and was presented with an Ad!

Alas, the ad was from FabulousDomains letting me know that VirginiaCandidates.com was for sale. I clicked through and it's selling for $1,100. I hope the sell it!

So to the Candidates in the next race, looks like all the terms are up for grabs on Google for $0.05 per click. Might be a lot more cost effective than some of those TV Ads!

So I'll have to ask my wife who to vote for again this year. Darn!
