Well I did not make it very many posts before straying away from SEO, but I figured out a quick way to copy campaigns in AdWords Editor today. OK, I actually did not figure it out, one of my reps over at Google gave me the scoop. Since researching this myself on the web last week and coming up dry I thought I would post the solution.

Once you have your account loaded, highlight the campaign you want to copy in the left bar. Then on the right hand side choose the Campaign tab. It should only show one campaign (the one you selected on the left). Right click on this and hit copy.

From there, go back to the left and highlight your account name at the top of the menu (or go ahead and log into your other account if you are trying to copy across accounts). Then Edit->Paste. It will drop a full copy of your campaign in. Don’t forget that you will need to rename your campaign since you can’t have a duplicate Campaign name. Now all you have to do is change your GEO targeting and whatever other changes you wanted with this “Copy” of the campaign.

Hope it saves you time as well, because the Adwords Editor Help menu is pretty weak.
