What’s on sale?

What’s only $89.99?

Shipping of what?

Oh heck, I’ll just have to click to find out.

Or did you pay Google for nothing…?

My keyword search was "trilby hat ebay" – so what’s this?

This is a generic ad "dressed up" (pun intentional) and pretending to be relevant when it clearly isn’t – and caught in the act due to advertiser incompetence.

In fact, due to keyword expansion, both Google and the advertiser are guilty by association, but – one knows what’s going on, the other doesn’t.

Love eBay? I don’t think so…!

So is this AdWords Ad a Blooper? Or a test of your curiosity? What’s *really* inside there…?

Not so much of an Ad Blooper this one, but …

… it’s a dead giveaway all the same – an affiliate link from someone promoting something they probably have no clue about.

And a glaring affiliate link right there in the ad.

Another Howler from Ask.com – most men *don’t want* to Get Moobs.

Moobs ("Man-Boobs") can be surgically removed (ick) or treated by pills of some kind or another.

So "Get Moobs" is not the Result I’m looking for – maybe "Get Rid of Moobs" might be a more "Relevant" Result.

Of course, when we think "Relevant" – who springs to mind…?

Here’s a link to a "moobs" related article in the Times Newspaper (it has some gruesome bits but is a highly entertaining read)

Seen in the UK – a very rare Taiwanse ad

But what on earth does it mean?

Perhaps this advertiser needs to restrict his Campaign Locations a little …

An accidental winner?

Is? Are? "Take your to beat your"?

This ad has been running for months, and the grammar looks awful.

But curious clickers may be making the CTR of this ad so strong that it’s become an accidental winner!
