Google Adwords time machine

13 Dec 2004 by Jason Fried

We recently started using Google’s conversion tracking tool for our adwords campaigns. We’ve set it up so Google generates a report of yesterday’s conversions and notifies us by email that it’s ready to review.

Today I went into the Reports section and saw this pending report:

dates

December 25, 1979 - Dec 31, 1979. I can’t wait to see how that one turned out.

Now, now. No complaining. Isn't Adwords in Beta?

I can predict one thing: you'll see a lot of clicks from the Department of Defense and Bell Labs.

What site you have adwords on? 37signals.arpa? ;-)

Matthew: I don't think AdWords is still in beta version (the logo doesn't say so)

Jason: How do you find the Google AdWords interface? I find it pretty confusing. Can they do beter?

I'm not a fan.

I'm very much with JF on this. The interface is the main reason I don't check on earnings as often as I could/should.
