I seem to have lucked onto a super hot keyword phrase that is a metaphor for a more expensive phrase. So, my site is getting tons of hits and the clicks are quite nice - a few have been in the 90 cents range.

What I'm wondering is do the folks who have ads on that page that are clicked get told what keyword search phrase folks used when they came to my site? I think I had read that somewhere.

I plan on doing a bit more SEO for this phrase but am wondering if those with bigger budgets will simply buy their way to the top after Google basically hands them my research for the cost of a click or two.

i dont use adwords but a site stats script can do what you asked so i will assume that the adsense code can also do that.

I am not using adwords latelly but as far as I know the advertiser knows the campaign that displayed in your site, in which they set their keywords.

I'm not certain that you understood my question. Maybe if I give you an example?

Let's say the high priced keyword is apple. I have the word apple on my site enough to generate ads for apples. But, I also have the words 'red fruit' on my page enough times to rank quite well for that term. I don't rank well for apples due to the highly competitive nature of that keyword, but I rank quite high for 'red fruit'.

I guess in a way, I unintentionally did what the arbitrators used to do before Google banned that except I'm not paying for the lower priced keyword - my site is naturally ranking for a keyword phrase that no one is currently bidding on.

If I'm understanding what you said Nikolas, the advertiser in my example would see that his ad was clicked based on the keyword apple. But, does part of the reporting advertisers receive include the fact that the person who clicked on that ad came to my site via Google search and the term 'red fruit'?

No this is not possible. I mean it is possible for google, but it would be illegal

Hurray, when I was looking over some of the new concepts in their terms of service I wasn't sure if they would be passing that information on to the advertiser. Seemed like that would be grossly unfair to the publishers and I figured that I would only get benefit of my find until one of the advertisers picked up on the number of clicks they were getting from my site.
