Q. What's "Filters" and why do I need it?

    When you generate over 10k keywords in 1 list it's almost impossible to handle it .

    The way you can handle this kind of scenario is to focus in a smaller list of keywords by using the filter in the Keyword Tool.

    Filters

    You can view keywords according to their status (approved, rejected, etc.), campaign, tag,
    frequent words (common words/phrases occurring in the keyword) and more.

    You can use the Frequent filter so you can work on a smaller list. For example: you want to group together all the keywords with the word "Car" in the same adgroup etc.

    Frequant

    You can view keywords according to their status (approved, rejected, etc.), campaign, tag, frequent words (common words/phrases occurring in the keyword) and more.

    Save Options:

    Keywords: when you have a list of keywords you can decide what keyword you want to save to your campaign- only the "Approved" keywords, only the selected keywords (the ones you marked) or both.

    if you want to save all the approved keywords you need to check the "Approved" box. If you want to save only the keywords you selected then you need to check the "Selected" box etc.

    Save to Campaign

    Using rule:"att" stand for attribution. You have 2 att ruls you can use by saving the keywords to your campaigns: "att:tag" and "att:source".

    "att:tag"- The keyword will be saved to your campaign with the tag you named it. If a tag name doesn't exist in your campaign as an adgroup, it will create a new adgroup with the tag's name. If the tag exist in your campaign then it will save the keyword in the relevant adgroup.

    "att:source"- assigns keywords to their source. It creats an adgroup with the source's name and assign the keywords to it. For example: if you generated a keyword from a specific site then the source name will be that site's name.

    Using Rule

    Types- Here you check whatever match you want the keyword to get: broad, phrase and exact.

    Save Types

    Ads- Here you can choose an ad or ads you want to assign to the new adgroup you create. You will see your profile's default ads and some of your competitors ads.

    you can choose the ads by checking the "V" sign. If you don't want an ad you just need to uncheck it. You can also edit the ad you'd like to assign by clicking the "Edit" button next to the "V".
