Just been doing a bit of KW research and noticed that some of the keywords I copied and pasted into my notepad came out like this:

gas and electricity providers   1 - 3   £11.37   
gas and electricity best prices   1 - 3   £9.32   

I had no idea GG gave people a clue as to what to bid in order to get in the top 3... simply exporting the keywords gave me no such additional info where copying and pasting did (occasionally).

I don't fiddle with sponsored listings, so this may be old news or no news at all, just thought it might be of interest to those who do.

Pretty sure its always done that though to be honest in my brief experience with adwords with a good quality score you don't need to pay anywhere near their recommendations!

Snap, I usually ignore them totally.  I go by the average position Ads are appearing in for whatever the bid price is and bump it accordingly.

Can you tell us how much one needs to pay for those exact keywords with good quality score. If you can tell any approximate value.

Yes the ad words tool has done this for a while now, however I'm am not too convinced about the information!

none of the information from the adwords research tool is accurate, whether search numbers or prices.

it does however give you relative value for kws, compared to each other.

so  if they say a search is 9000 a month and you get 5 hits a day for a #2 ranking (happens)  if they say another search is 6k per month, you can be fairly sure you'll get 3 hits per day from that lol.

the cost per click has been there since it was upgraded back in July 08

but you have to click "show all" to see it.
