Hi everyone!

What is the scoop on dynamic keyword insertion letter case? I've tried everything to get the following:

searcher types:
acme inc.

ad says:
Acme Inc at great prices

(note the "a" became "A")

It used to be that you could just do these:

{keyword:theword here} -> acme inc
{keyword:Theword Here} -> Acme Inc
{keyword:Theword here} -> Acme inc
... to manipulate the text... didn't it?

Well, this doesn't seem to work any more. Now it just leaves the case the exact same as the searcher enters it.

Anyone else seeing this?

Perhaps I've forgotten some basic syntax issues here?

Thanks!

It still works,

if the user searched for "blue widgets"

then

{keyword:theword here} will return -> blue widgets
if "blue widgets" is <= the authorised title length otherwise will return
theword here

{Keyword:theword here} will return -> Blue widgets
if "blue widgets" is <= the authorised title length otherwise will return
Theword here

{KeyWord:theword here} will return -> Blue Widgets
if "blue widgets" is <= the authorised title length otherwise will return
Theword Here

I simply had been using the case instruction on the wrong bit. I had thought it was done on the keyword default phrase, but instead you do so on the word "keyword" instead. Your post was the key, thank you....

Hi,

I was wondering what happens to titles of ads that use dynamic keywords when served on the content network?

Does google use default title or does it pick up relevant words from the page its being served on?

thanks
