To all the PPC expert,
Im new with all the PPC world but im learning every day.
I wanted to ask if any one know if there is a good tool for organize / creating ads groups from a big keys list ?Another thing,
what is the best way to manage the budget for all the campaigns ?Thank you

I would agree with the daily budget caps suggestion. That's what I've found out works best for me. I break the budget up so the campaign will run for as many days as possible with the daily budget before hitting your monthly budget total.

With regard to the above I think the tool you are looking for is http://www.google.co.uk/intl/en/adwordseditor/ - This is basically a desktop app that allows you to manage all your campaigns. For some reason Google doesn't promote it very much, so a lot of people don't know it exists. It will save you a lot of time when creating and managing large campaigns.
With regards to managing your budgets it really depends on what your trying to do, and Adwords is so flexible (and pretty confusing unless your an expert!) in this that it is hard to define a single answer. You can manage budgets on many different levels from overall campaign to individual Keywords etc.
The thing with adwords is that its an organic learning process and needs constant monitoring and adjustment. My advise would be to make sure you have daily budget caps in place, and then try putting max bids on you ad groups. Then as time goes by, monitor your ROI on these campaigns and adjust accordingly.

Any PPC Companies out there who can work with small accounts
I have a story , 18 months ago we had our own PPC adwords account, we had been running at £3.20 CPA for quite some time and we were very happy. Sometimes CPA would go up , sometimes down, but not my very much. One unfortunate day google rang, and told us , that our CPA should ne £2.50 and that we needed expert advice that they couldn't actually give us, we needed an expert. To cut a long story short and after 5 very expert companies have messed with our account, we had varying results. One company left us with 2 leads per day at £10 a lead !!!! , one did better than that and setup a £3k adwords account using their expert advice, blew it all and said "times are tough" sorry !!! The last company was actually the best, great guy , but I think we are two small for him, we have varying results, one day we get 30 leads, the next we get 10 , one day its £3.50 CPA , next its £7.00 . But on the whole very happy with his initial work We just want a company that doesn't Lie to us , tells us straight , and can use their expertise to get us a CPA of £3.50 and help us get upto 50 leads a day, if not more. Thanks Hope that makes sense Nick

PPC Bid Strategies for Adwords PLA Campaign
I am managing a Google Adwords Product Listing Ads (PLA) campaign. The campaign is granular and specific in that each product is targeted via its corresponding ad groups. The structure of the campaign is : Campaign->500 Ad Groups (each ad group targeting a unique product selected by "product_id". I would like to get some ideas and feedback on bidding strategies. The granular structure of the campaign allows me to set a different Default Max CPC and a Max CPC for each unique product. I am unable to find within Adwords a column that shows what the competition is bidding. Is there a methodical procedure to extract this bidding information? I have recently enabled "Search Impression Share" and "Search Impression Lost (IS Rank)", but there is not enough data yet for those stats. What do the PPC experts have to say?

Need help Tracking PPC vs Organic and respective ROI
So I have a client who uses PPC and Organic SEO to drive traffic. Once a user gets to the site, the most common action is to fill out a form. I have Auto Tagging enabled in Adwords so all PPC clicks have "gclid" in the url. I am also grabbing the Google Cookie and parsing it out to determine if the visitor is PPC or Organic. So I have an if statement in my form code to pass PPC vs organic through the form for tracking purposes: $url = 'http://' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']; if (false !== strpos($url,'gclid')) { ?> Essentially this is saying: If gclid is in the url, or if the cookie contains PPC
