Suggestion Tool - numbers for Overture only?

[semiaziz]

Does the tool show only Overture numbers or combined numbers from all search engines/portals which use Overture for their top 3 results?

no just overture

Nope. Bid suggestion tool numbers come from Overture's Network Partners stats. Yahoo, etc.

I was under the impression it just showed Overture clicks only but I'm open to other views

shows searches for terms on all of Overture's partners not just on Overture advertisers

yep hang's head in shame :) cheers martinibuster for the info

I see this thread seems to have died a few weeks ago.

Did anyone find out what Overture's Suggestion tool actually provides counts for?

We are trying to project potential Internet traffic as part of our keyword research. It's a big difference between all their partners (Yahoo, Lycos, MSN, Alta Vista, InfoSpace), 3 of their partners, or Overture click-thrus.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
I'm hunting everywhere for the info.

Thank you!
