		<description><![CDATA[Backlinks may be important for Adwords...yes adwords, not SEO]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Got an earful about something interesting from  a former Google&#8217;r.<br />
It was regarding a factor <a href="http://www.clicksandclients.com/what_we_do.php">Adwords</a> is using to evaluate your ppc landing pages<br />
and I doubt you&#8217;ve considered this.</p>
<p>No, not  h1 tags or stuffing your bullets with keywords&#8230;.it was:</p>
<p><strong>QUALITY back links</strong>&#8230;um yesss, we&#8217;re not talking<br />
SEO here.  According to my source, quality of the<br />
back-links pointing toward your landing page is important and will<br />
become more important in the future.</p>
<p>Is this crazy talk, I&#8217;m not sure?  But it does kinda make sense.<br />
On the SEO side Google puts more weight on back-links then<br />
Yahoo or MSN does. Being overly simplistic here,<br />
but you get the point.</p>
<p>So, if good back-links = relevant information the same should<br />
probably be true for PPC&#8230;</p>
<p>This brings up a few things, one being landing pages just for<br />
PPC that aren&#8217;t part of the SEO game plan.  Squeeze pages, are they in trouble?</p>
<p>With the Adwords quality score hysteria a lot of people are building<br />
a landing pages for every adgroup combination imaginable.<br />
A page for red stilettos then a page for red high heels and another<br />
for red stilettos size 6, 7, 8&#8230;etc</p>
<p>If you think about it though, Google is pretty smart in figuring out what pages<br />
are about and what is in the wheelhouse of stilettos size 6.</p>
<p>Going overboard and creating a page for each shoe size may be miss-allocating your<br />
time to higher ROI activities, like WRITING BETTER ADS.</p>
<p>Are a ka-billion landing pages a thing of the past? Not sure, but I think<br />
we&#8217;ll find out&#8230;either that or my source was full of it <img src='http://blog.clicksandclients.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
