Competitors Local Paper Adwords Ads (4 posts)


  • Hi Everybody:

    I see competitors adwords ads on the local paper and I want to know how much are they paying for clicks of those ads, is that possible? 

    Secondly of course, I would like to do the same on specific local sites only. 

    Does anyone here know how exactly you do that?  I tried running an ad on adwords myself and I never say it where I wanted to see it displayed. 

    I need help with this please.

  • Hey Carlos, you can try keywordspy.com

    This site allows you to see which keywords your competitors are using, and the ads that are producing results. You can also type in specific URL’s, and see the keywords and ads a specific competitor is using.

    They offer a free trial.

    Hope this helps!

  • There is also another site called… Spyfu.com (which I’ve not tried)

  • @carlosdixon Have you tried SEMrush (http://semrush.com/) – it’s a tool that is supposed to help you research into your competitor’s paid search campaigns. I believe it gives you approximate CPC for their keywords too.
