Our Top 10 of 2005

We've written our New Year's resolutions (hopefully I will bike 35 miles to work once a week), toasted with friends over glasses of champagne, and are ready to embrace 2006. Before moving full steam ahead though, we'd like to take one last look at all that happened with Inside AdWords in 2005.

So, to follow in the footsteps of David Letterman and the Google Zeitgeist, here's our very own Top 10 list. While our highlights don't include any references to Brad and Angelina, we do re-visit our favorite feature releases and top Inside AdWords moments-

10) New features are added to the Keyword Tool

9) The Report Center gets a face lift

8) An artist is born...and yes, she also writes for our blog

7) Site exclusion allows you to prevent your ads from showing on specific sites in our content network

6) Our friends over at AdSense notice that we started a pretty good thing

5) My Change History provides you with a record of your account changes

4) Sitemaps allow you to inform Google when you've made changes to your web pages or created new ones so that they'll be included in our index

3) Specify the websites where you want to advertise with site targeting (and learn about our vast array of niche sites)

2) Place separate bids for search and content within the same Ad Group

1) Jon, Vivian, Blake and Andrew hear this blogging thing is going to be huge...

With that, we'll close the door on 2005, and welcome you to a new year of AdWords tips and insights with the Inside AdWords crew.
