I've been working on this for the last week or so and it's finally ready for public release.

You might have heard of SpeedPPC before. The creators are charging $497 for a desktop application that mixes keywords together and creates custom ad groups in CSV format for importing into Adwords EDITOR. You can create thousands of custom ad groups and custom ads in mere minutes. The software is actually quite good, but also quite expensive.

Because of this, I decided to program my own version and release it as open source for free. It is written in PHP and is MUCH faster than the desktop version (in my tests anyways).

You can test it out on my server or download it for use on your own server. No advertising is included, no costs are included, and the files are not encrypted. You can see everything that is happening if you just open up the PHP files (no fear of me stealing your campaign data).

You can get the full details and download instructions from this post on my site.

Enjoy!
 


Pretty cool, I have something similar but I know lots of people that will like this. Those guys at speed PPC must have made a killing.. Charging $500 for this? WOW.
 
Respect and +Rep to Beau for providing this free tool. Powerful tool. :)

I seem to be having trouble getting it fully working.
I 've read the user guide and followed the steps but when it goes to output
the csv to screen I can get the page to load - but where there should be a
cut and paste section for Adwords Editor, I just see the following php code;

Code:
<?=stripslashes(trim($csvOutput['adw']['kw']))?>
I'm using Vista with Wampserver. I've tested the striplashes function with some code from php.net and that works.

Would anyone know the problem here?

I've never used Wampserver, so I'm not really sure what the problem is. Maybe the shorthand "print()" isn't working. Try changing:

Code:
<?=stripslashes(trim($csvOutput['adw']['kw']))?>

to

Code:
<?php print(stripslashes(trim($csvOutput['adw']['kw']))) ?>

in "index.php"

Please let us know if this fixes the problem. If it does, I will update the main source to improve compatibility.
 
respect!


newbies note the server link no longer works (server overload) so you'll have to download to your own server.

Thanks Beau, that worked perfect,
Awesome script. :)

Btw, I should have mentioned, it worked just fine on an online hosted a/c,
but it is definitely more fun to run it locally from my PC.

Thanks again.
 
See, this is an idea I've had before ... should have spent more time hanging out here than at ... uh "other" forums. I've always thought that a site that regularly cranked out F/OS versions of whatever is hot shit at ClickBank would be fantastic ... just don't have the coding ability and could never figure out an angle to monetise it (if I was a programmer it could be used as a functional ad for my services, but as is, I'm stumped. Somebody with skills should run with it, seriously.)
