Google AdWords: Multiple Account!

[Okoji]

Hello Friends,

I have multiple Google AdWords account for my self and my clients.

I want to know if it is against their policy to use one billing contact for more than one account?

Hope to get fast response.

Cheers,
Okoji

Although the TOS says you can't use more than one account, they are fine with it as long as you don't use them to game the system. In other words, don't use the same keywords to try to get multiple ads to show for your site or sites selling same/similar products. Treat all accounts as if they are one and follow the rules as if they are one. Otherwise, you're likely to find them all banned.

I agree with Lucid.
in other words DO NOT setup duplicate campaigns across your accounts.
No matter what the TOS says. I have freinds that had all their accounts banned for having multiple accounts. And as you know Google does not need to give you any reason why they ban accounts. I would be very careful.

Ok, The issue here is that I have few coupons that I want to use and they can't be used on the old accounts. So I am looking for a way to use them.

Any more suggestions?

Yeah. Stop trying to shmooze the system. It's why
google puts the hammer down on everybody.

Of course google allows you to MANAGE multiple accounts.

That's how pros do it.

If you were really interested in following rules, you would
have already found out that you can manage multiple
accounts, and, indeed use coupons on new ones.

Yes, I have always had a problem with people trying to
just shmooze google.

Become a google certified partner, and do it the right way.

If you are just trying to use free coupons, over and over,
with no real goal, then what should be the right thing to
do?

You really are just trying to shmooze the system.

Seems to be the mindset here. Just shmooze google,
who cares?

Just to highlight, you can't actually advertise the same site twice. You're not able to double serve the same website targeting the same keywords with two different accounts. It does not work. Instead it will just split the activity between the two accounts and give you a lower impression share.

Opening different accounts and using coupons to do so is fine, however when your doing this just to run one campaign for the same website then this is obviously a bad idea and one which I hope leads to your account suspension and domain black listed.

Other than this, the way the 'pros' do it, is to have all of their accounts running through an MCC, this helps improve efficiency because your able to optimise multiple accounts all through the same logins.

This is the way I do it, and the way most professionals/agencies run things.

Thank you so much all.

@ paulgl you have sounded like a professional. I am very sorry for that.

@ willyboy104, thank you very much for your suggestion. Please what is MCC?

Cheers!

Apologies an MCC is an abbreviation for 'My Client Centre' it allows you to run several different accounts through one log in and gives you extra features and functions and the ability to optimise individual accounts all through the one login. This also helps massively when using the Google adwords editor.
