    Default AdWords Dresses Up for Holidays

    I am a bit shocked by this! Try these searches:

    - http://www.google.com/search?q=peppermint
    - http://www.google.com/search?q=christmas
    - http://www.google.com/search?q=candy+cane
    - http://www.google.com/search?q=hanukkah
    - http://www.google.com/search?q=kwanzaa

    Now look at the ads on the right!

    I have images at the blog entry I named Google AdWords Adds Holiday Colored Highlight Bar to Ads

    I hear it doesn't work in all locations, specifically outside the US.

    That is an entirely valid reason then, as I am in Canada.

    Not at all, not at all.
    But how can you argue with the holiday spirit?

    Too true. Rather sneaky (or clever) way to introduce it eh.

    Post Adwords Holiday gift

    I liked the Holiday gift Google gave out this year for it's AdWords customers, $20.00, good marketing. I started using AdWords, once the Java patch went in. I lost my first page listings with Google. Now I am back on the first page, I did not make any changes to my website, it just appeard on the first page about 2 months afterwards.
