My affiliate manager from Neverblue sent these videos out yesterday (thanks Jason). They were actually pretty damn funny, I gotta say, as geeky as they are. Only us computer/internet marketers probably find humor in them, but that’s what makes them all the more funny. Oh, the MSN butterfly was classic!

Up first, MSN vs Google:

I’m writing this post to save someone the frustrations I experienced last night as I tried to export a nice list of negative keywords into MSN AdCenter. What a pain that was!

I’ve exported complete campaigns from Adwords before, but I don’t do it often because (until recently), there wasn’t an easy way to get a campaign into AdCenter without it hiccuping and upchucking your data to shreds. (the template file they give you is complete crap by the way, but thank God for the AdCenter Desktop Tool. Microsoft finally did something right!)

Be on the look out for suite of tools with the “202″ brand that are growing in popularity in the affiliate marketing world. These tools include:

Tracking202 - A hosted, but free keyword conversion tracking software.

Prosper202 – The same as Tracking202, yet self-hosted (if you hosted tools aren’t your thing)

Export202 – A cool online utility to quickly convert PPC campaigns from one search engine to another.

WorldProxy202 – A proxy tool designed for marketers who want to promote international campaigns. WorldProxy202 makes it possible to see campaigns that your affiliate network might normally block from your country.

I’ve mentioned some of these tools a few times in other posts. Being that this entire suite of tools is free, as well as the support, I thought I’d help alleviate some of the questions the Tracking202 team gets and starts some posts with 202 tutorials. Read the rest of this entry
