Well Robert, thank you because I'd never heard of google adwords and
just went and set up my account which will be activated within 3 days
and I will let you know how it works.  Up to now I have  only
purchased two ads and that was 15 years ago and they started the whole
thing going. Since then it has had a grassroots life of its own.  My
web sites www.hobeyford.com and www.peeperspuppet.com are where I get
all my busines.  That and the stores and merchants who buy from
Peepers and word of mouth.  I use search word "meta links" which bring
my site up when people search those words on google and yahoo.  I do
have  Google analytics account which helps me moniotor how people
navigate through my site so I can make sure they're finding what they
need.  I mention my sites at shows and that brings in some business
but really it is about 10 really good buyers and dozens of smaller
ones who keep me in business.

Have you ever thought of using something like Google Adwords?  Several puppetry related businesses do and I'm curious as to what their success rates have been.
