Poor AdWords location targeting from Google!

Poor AdWords location targeting

Here’s an excellent example of how not to target your AdWords ad’s from Google!

While searching for “Yahoo Search Marketing Blog” on Google I came across this advert for Google Blog Search containing an English title and a Spanish description. I’m located in Australia and as far as I know the Aussies aren’t fluent in Spanish so the geotargeting and ad text don’t exactly match for this campaign!
