I've read in a lot of places that split testing ads in AdWords is the a very good way of finding what draws in clicks for your campaign. I understand the concept completely and I agree 100% but I am having trouble implementing this method. When comparing the ads, which time frame should I use to compare? Also, should I just stick with two ads or should I do more? How long should I wait or what should I look for before editing an ad?

I turn off automatic optimisation and watch the CTR over a period before deciding which ad is converting better.
