We released version 2.5.0.2 today.

Google made changes to their Keyword Tool recently that broke some of the Keyword Research functionality and this release resolves that issue.

We also had a few bug fixes for the Legacy Campaign builder, so that should be working 100% again for everyone.

We added a few optimizations to improve performance during the campaign building process, specifically the expansion of keywords.

This version should make Keyword Rockstar much more rock solid as we work out the final kinks in all the new functionality introduced in version 2.5

Best wishes,

Jon

We released version 2.0.2.6 of Keyword Rockstar today and it contains a great new feature for the Content Network & Placement Targeted campaigns, along with some bug fixes for the Flash Banner Preview functionality.

Now, you can use tokens in your Content & Placement campaigns just like you can in your Search Campaigns.

This is great for dynamic landing pages or getting the keyword in your text ads.

NOTE: The tokens only work in the Text Ads not the Image Ads. We are working on a solution for possibly implementing that, but we wanted to go ahead and give you the Text Ad Token capability.

Best wishes,

Jon

We released a minor updated version today that includes some bug fixes, optimizations and new functionality to access the community site Keyword Rockstar Family.

Now, you can simply click the button inside the application to launch the community site in your default web browser.

We wanted to make sure everyone had easy access to the forum, case studies, and member blogs.

Best wishes,

Jon

I am happy to announce that we just released a new version of Keyword Rockstar!

This version has some fantastic improvements and completely automates the proxy management for you.

Now you can just create a project and hit the start button and we will automatically use proxies for you. I think you are going to love it!

Make sure you get the latest version by starting Keyword Rockstar and clicking the “Ok” button when it asks you to download the new version.

There are a lot of minor improvements, speed enhancements, cpu resource reduction and overall bug fixes.

We are hard at work building a community site that should be ready next week if all goes well.

We have great plans for that and are really looking forward to everyone getting involved, learning, sharing and growing!

Also, I have a case study for a clickbank product that I am going to share with everyone next week. I am leaving nothing out, you will see everything, including the landing page, PPC campaigns, and how I used KR to build them.

The next release towards the end of the month will contain the best Image Ad builder you could ever want. We are working hard so that Google will love these ads and you will too!

Finally, if anyone is interested in running CPA offers and would like an auto-approved account (on a Trial basis) with a private CPA network, let me know.

Also, I spoke with Ryan today from Elite Clicks Media and he said that a few of our Keyword Rockstar family members have already been put on weekly payments and they just started this week! You have do at least $1,000 in commissions to get put on weeklies, so for those that made that, WAY TO GO!!

My goal is to teach as many of you how to do that as I can over the next few months and I plan on doing at least one case study per month that will be absolutely free and step-by-step.

That brings me to my final point. I apologize for not responding personally to a lot of the emails I have gotten this week. You can imagine that with the new release and everything that I’m trying to do for
everyone, it is quite a busy time here and very difficult to be as responsive as I would like to be.

So, please forgive me, I will try to get back to everyone that sent me an email these last few days by the end of the weekend.

Just as a recap:

1) Forum/Community Site coming soon!
2) New Image Ads in next major release!
3) Monthly Case Studies Starting!
4) Email me for Trial CPA Account
5) Sorry for the delay in responding!

Best wishes,

Jon

We are excited to release version 2.0.1.10 today!

This is the first version in the direction we are taking to remove the manual proxy maintenance and to automate it.

Here are the changes:

• Filtering Section, Step 7 – Now you can pre-filter your additional stats collection based on the initial stats of the keywords returned by the Google Keyword Tool.  This allows you to only get data for the keywords that meet a minimum criteria you specify.
• Proxies are global – Proxies are now global across all projects and are only tested the first time KR is launched and a project is started.  They are not tested on each project like before, you now only select which country you want to filter the proxies to in Step 8 of the project settings.

Bug Fixes

• Image Ads should work for all text entered now.
• Yahoo & MSN campaigns work for Content Network Campaigns (no more missing keywords)
• Project Running but no data being returned
• URL Seeds return data

This version has a good bit of improvements in speed and also general bug fixes based on the feedback we have gotten from you.

Looking forward to releasing more improvements over the next few weeks.

Best Wishes,

Jon
