Legal Terms, Medical Terms. Lots of people use adwords for non ecommerce types of things. Pay Pal has never worked much outside of eBay does google really think they can beat a name like Pay Pal. People do not want to sign up for a new account. They have credit card in hand and are ready to buy something. PPC is not dead by a long shot.

On their blog today, they say “Looking ahead, we want to continue building payment services that meet the needs of Google users and advertisers. We expect to add payment functionality to Google services where our users need a way to buy online. For us, it’s all about bringing our users a better online experience whether they’re searching or buying.” They, of course, don’t talke about this particular rumor directly, but obviously, they are getting closer to at least coming out with Google Wallet.

More likely, it would be an option for those who wanted to participate.

And if the Adwords buyers aren’t advertising for sites that can process transactions online, are they just not able to participate? There’s a whole, big world outside of making small, 1-time purchases online – I hope they realize that beforehand. One advertiser that shows up on one of our sites w/ adsense sells items that cost up to $20,000. Pretty sure that would fall outside of what Google Wallet could handle….

But can you imagine the payout for a single one of those “actions”? 🙂
