What is the deal with Ispionage? Does anyone use this service? And if so, how has it affected your PPC campaigns? According to the site, it states that you can get PPC keywords and ads and just about everything you want to know about your competitor. Is this legal? lol... That maybe a dumb question but im a noob at this.

    Hi,

    i have not tried the the specific tool/membership you mentioned.That being said, all spy tools are only tools!!!. you can get tons of keywords easily.
    and guided/misguided. however success with PPC depends on lot of factors
    including but not limited to Account History, your experience, your business model etc.

    These tools do not harm the current affiliates if their business model is better than anyone who is spying them.

    adding to it most of these tools are grossly inaccurate.

    not sure if did help you though.

    ispionage seems to do a lot more than what most tools do. Only thing is, it's pretty pricey on their monthly service fee.

    Something I've been foolin around with for a month or so.. I'll report my findings when I come to a conclusion.. so far it looks like this is a good tool to invest in, but I'm also testing some free alternatives, 'outside the box' keyword research, etc..

    I would think you could find out nearly everything you need to know from their source code. All of their Meta's are there plus all of their H tags.

    The real story of their success would in their PPC campaigns if any and their backlinking efforts and how extensive they are. You can find out the latter easily enough with something as simple as alta vista.

    So basically these companies are claiming to have insider info on PPC campaign data. I find that highly unlikely and even if true, unless you can outspend them I don't see the value in that. You could probably spend 5 minutes and put together a list of their keywords that would be 85% accurate.

    Just my $.02

    Hey.. is this the spy tool U all are talking about? I personally feel, Espionage seems to perform more task than what most tools of the same category do. Whereas most of the tools of this section proves to be inaccurate.
