I see. Well hopefully nothing will go wrong this year. Make it a priority when you turn 18, that will open so many more doors for you as well.

I have had adwords up for about a month now, so my knowledge here may not be as extensive as other, but here it is.

I have my ads set up to only display if the searcher is in the city I service.

that keeps it narrow.

Keywords are the other aspect to things. I have every keyword listed that remotely relates to a service I offer.

I have found that people don't click links for things they are not looking for.

If I'm trying to find out the greens fees at a local golf course, I might see an ad for an LCO, but i'm not going to click it because I know that's not what I want.

It is my top priority i can hardly wait until im of age and by that time ill have a big enough customer base under me. Being licenesed will also allow me to be insured etc. and will allow me to do other things like gutter cleanups and commercial accounts.

jklawncare- Im 17, will be 18 in March. Im from Nebraska, and here you can get licensed and insured even if your not 18. Even if you can't get licensed, im sure you'll be able to get insured. I don't think there's an insurance company out there that will turn it down. Your parents will most likely have to co-sign the insurance policy, but it gives you a HUGE sense of security.
