Define Large Volume?

In my opinion unless you spend multi millions per month the maximum you get is your own adword rep :)

Hello,

I would be surprised if Google would ever give anyone a discount based on volume. Since the placement in the results are based on an auction, a discount to one bidder is in effect a penalty to every other bidder for that keyword. I think they might also be obligated to inform other bidders that volume is part of the placement formula. But as they say it never hurts to ask.

Regards,

The few of us here who have been involved with discussion like that with Google et al are not really going to be able to discuss the details on a public forum.

For the most part, if you're not a fortune 500 company and you are not able to spend >$100MM/year and your brand does not drive millions of click in it's own right then I think you're only going to get market prices.
