Ask HN: Best resources for running Adwords campaigns?

Read up on Perry Marshall, he seems to be the go to source for all of it.

Additionally, Trada.com is providing a crowd-sourced solution.

Tools wise I guess I would refer you to wordtracker, and other keyword research tools. Since the more specific you are with your terms the lower the bid price can be.

Admittedly, I don't know much about running Adwords campaigns, but you might want to check out AdGrok (http://www.adgrok.com)

You can use a service like www.spyfu.com to get keyword lists for competing websites. Also, be sure to install the Adwords editor. It will make your life much easier.
