Do you think you will get the same traffic at a lower price if you bid for non-completed keywords such as "Examp" rather than "Example"

I figured Examp is repeated the same amount of times if not more than Example but not priced as high!

I just thought about this last night and tried it this morning but didn't get any results: [adwords.google.com...]

I thought I hit the jackpot! I should have known it couldn't be that easy.

I think my best advice here would be to 'test it and see'.

I'd also ask that you please do not use Keyword Insertion while running your tests. :)

I'm guessing no. Your ads will still be competing against others willing to pay more than yourself. I highly doubt you will have any success with this as Google is pretty good at recognizing misspelled words and mapping appropriate ads.

The only time I could see this working is on some less popular exact match keywords. But then how much traffic will you actually get with exact match misspellings?
