Funny Google AdWords - Have a good weekend everybody.

That's some good outside the box marketing...someone wants to order a pizza from Dominos and see that, they might change their mind and want a Pizza Hut pie.

[Dr.Marie]

Ordering pizza Josh? Did you get Dominos or Pizza Hut?

I guess it makes sense to buy PPC with your competitor's name!

[DarrenHaye]

You're not allowed to use your competitors brand name in adwords.

As soon as domino's complain it will be removed, could lead to a lawsuit ...

Weird.. I saw a reply from test, tried to rep comment on it said it was invalid... clicked back and now it's gone, but it hasn't been deleted because I can't see it...

How does that happen *scratches head*

[Darrin Ward]

mmmmmmmm Stuffed Crust.

KernelPanic agrees: yeah because you have years of experience with adwords

Yeah.. thanks for that.

It's just something I looked into once.

As I remember from what I read at the time you're allowed to use a brand name if you're selling their product, or if it's an informational page about them..

Something like that.

Please correct me if what I said is wrong.

Edit> Hum, I've been reading about it again..

"order domino's online" could be anything, doesn't say pizza.. since the search doesn't contain pizza it's probably fine and I am wrong

Whether that ad is legal or not is one case, and whether Adwords will allow it is another. But if I were searching and would get the PizzaHut ad as a search result, I'd probably open a tab and have a look at what they have to offer.
