Build Ad Words

Problem: You have a lot of different keywords you want to combine to create keyword phrases for Google AdWords or other ad services. However, it's too much work to figure out all of the different combinations by hand.

Solution: Specify your ad word phrases below and this service will generate combinations based on the rules you provide.

Enter phrase specification: (try the sample or replace it with your own)

[exact match]  

"phrase match"  

broad match  

The expression parser is still a bit crude, and does not give helpful error messages if you mistype. Examine the sample spec and its output carefully for clues about how this works. Basically:

  • Keywords next to each other make up a single, atomic phrase. A keyword is basically letters, numbers, underscores, dashes, and apostrophes, starting with a letter or number.
  • Parentheses can be used to group phrases or expressions of phrases.
  • A question mark (?) following a word or parenthesized expression indicates that it is optional. The output will contain variations with and without the word or expression results.
  • Phrases or parenthesized expressions separated by vertical bars (|) indicate "or" alternatives. Each option will be output in combination with other parts of the entire expression.
  • All whitespace is equal. Newlines are the same as spaces.

If you have any questions or problems, feel free to contact me. Include the entire specification if you are encountering errors.

After I built this tool, I found the easier to use (though slightly less flexible): Related-Pages.com Keyword Generator
