Question on domain forwarding/PPC...

[RichB]

I currently have a website and there's a niche I want to service. I have a great domain name for the niche, but I don't want to build a whole new site for it, I'd rather just so the SEO and maintainence once instead of for 2 sites. Now I know that I can use the domain name for the niche and forward to the page I want in the main site. However, I don't think PPC allows you to link to a forwarding page. Any advice how to approach this? Or do I just forward the domains for general use and point PPC right to the page I want?

I have two domains for my mortgage company. The one is held at GODADDY.com, I just had our tech guy go in and make it forwarded there. So whether you clicked on the ad with the domain or typed it directly into the address bar it would automatically redirect.

Hope this helps!

Can someone shed the light on how adwords/ppc can be setup without a domain name? i.e. can I use a domain name that I haven't bought, and have it forward to www.existingdomain.com/test or something like that...?

Thanks.

I've used AdWords for an EBay auction before. $5 limit a day brought me 5 or 6 hits (crappy and expensive keywords). No sales though, but the ads worked at least.

I don't know what Google's service agreement says, but technically you can create an ad for any page on any website (and pass in data through the query string as well - the stuff after the question mark in the address).
