Local Business Ads:
Allow the coupons one can create through the Local Business Center to be attached to an ad or created through the AdWords interface and connected to an ad.

MCC:
If an MCC creates an account, allow the MCC to have full control of the account settings without having to log into the account directly.

Reporting:
Add 'external ID' and 'email address' as options for reporting options.

API:
(I know the API team has heard this plenty of times, but until it's implemented...) Preface rows with the external ID or email address when requesting MCC reports.

The ability to pause individual keywords.

Ad scheduling to tie up with Google calendar so that ads can be automatically turned on and off at key dates, e.g. a couple of days before Christmas.

Site exclusion on the search network, not just the content network.

[Simon_Says]

How about sensible bid levels. Now that would be a great feature ;)

The ability to pause keywords
The ability to pause sites in site targeting
The ability to pause sites in image site targetting

You can do most of this by creating seperate campaigns but it would be much easier if within any campaign more pause functionality

I only want to advertise on a couple major sites on the search and content network so for me a site inclusion option on the search and content networks would be very useful.

I'll add my voice to the pause single kwords and site inclusion option on search ideas. Not mad about domain parking sites as search partners.

Thanks eWhisper, for starting this thread (again) - and thanks also to those who have posted ideas already. I always get a little thrill (OK, I'm quite easy to please) when I see these threads staying active.

I'll be passing your ideas shortly, in this week's Advertiser Feedback Report.

And, I hope there'll be a bunch more by this time next week. ;)

I would like an east way to be able to block specific countries to see certain ads. I have tried selecting all countries except those countries which I dont want my ads to appear however this doesnt really work as people from those countries can use google.co.uk or google.de for example and still see the ads. Maybe there is something google can do with ip addresses or network locations?
