[...] New Keyword Generator Tool – Yahoo enhanced their keyword generator tool at the start of 2008. The tool enables you to add up to 500 keywords to your account instantly, provides a list of related keywords for a given ad group, and provides suggestions for keywords based on a given URL or description.

I have to say I love YSM, both for the easy to use interface and for the results it brings

some things I’d appreciate a lot are:

- no 1000kws limit per ad group (there are lots of cases where more than 1000 keywords would fit in a single ad group, and having to create new adgroups takes a lot of time

- possibility to clone ad groups so that the whole process gets quicker

- possibility to add larger amounts of keywords not having to past small pieces of our keywords lists

That is great. The next thing I would recommend and really as for is the ability to exclude more than 250 blocked domains. I rapidly ran into the 250 blocked domain limit and need to exclude many more than that. I would suggest that 1000 blocked domains would be much better.

I’m having a hard time adjusting to the new tool. It never gives us the complete list of related keywords. Sometimes terms come up and sometimes they don’t. I find this tool less useful as the old keyword search tool and find myself using other search engines to fulfill my keyword research. The new tool is very inconsistent and can be quite frustrating. I pray for the old research tool to return.

Excellent innovations! I particulary like the new keyword feature, which should make things a bit easier, and quicker, to get good keywords.

[...] Here’s a nice positive Y announcement, albeit involving negativity. Italics mine: Excluded Keywords We’ve expanded the maximum number of account-level and ad group-level excluded keywords from 50 to 250, which should help you better target searches and block unwanted ones. Excluded keywords are only applicable to the Advanced match type distribution tactic in Sponsored Search…. Remember, excluded words can be set at the account level (under the Administration tab) and the ad group level (in the ad group setting page). – from Yahoo Search Marketing Blog, Feb 1 2008 [...]

So, does this mean that ‘Excluded Keywords’ do not work with content campaigns? Negative keywords are an essential part of a successful content campaign.
