should we invest more on adwords and organic isn't important like before??
The first question..... Can you make a profit with Adwords? Most people don't make a profit and don't know it because they don't know their real costs and margins -- or they hire an SEO who bids without any of that information.
Second question... Can you pull off the rankings?... Most people can't... and that's why they are blowing their dough on Adwords.
Answer those questions and you know if you should take Door #1, Door #2, or Door #3 (which is try a different project.

I was reading as what brought in overall more compared to the two channels. I found data from Similar Web reports in shopping categories that 5% of all traffic came via paid and organic was around 95% (just the messenger on this).
Typically new sites heavily rely on generating traffic via ppc before organic kicks in. If you are generating traffic via ppc, take Roman's advice. Also, implement a good attribution framework to figure out your ROI or it will likely cost you. If you generate calls, get a unique number or use DNI to track your campaigns. Well worth the money.

Does paid search get more traffic compared to organic search now? depends on your budget and your ROI, the faster way to get traffic is paid search if you select this option you need to think about Optimization, Optimization and again Optimization, optimize ads, keywords, ads groups, audience, landing pages etc. This is the key, between a successful campaign and simply burn your money.
These resources are really useful for that
But trust me a Good Outreach campaign can boost your sale and audience in a way that PPC can not do. "Justin Howard" the founder of Sprout spent a year making guest posting even before he launch his website and get 50K subscribers just with outreachh.
So there is no right way all depends on your strategy.

Is it possible to link two sites' Search Console to Adwords?
My company is a healthcare organization that has two brands, one that's our 'system' and is mainly adult health services and the other is pediatric only focused care. Both have separate websites. Our SEM is managed by an outside agency. We're in the process of linking our Google Search Consoles to the Adwords account. Our GSC has both of the sites as separate properties, but the Adwords account has all of the campaigns for both brands under one account. Is it possible to link both of the GSC properties in the Adwords account to be able to get accurate information for the Paid & Organic report in Adwords?

How To Assign Pricing Based On User Location (Traffic Coming From Adwords)
Hi Mozzers, this may be more of a web development/analytics question than SEO, but hopefully someone has the experience to help me out. My company is currently conducting an Adwords campaign targeting B2B clients for products and services across Canada. Ideally each customer is registered as a client in our system when they make purchases, but this limits our customer base to those willing to create an account with us and wastes our Adwords budget. Now we are moving towards a "walk-up" e-commerce platform which would allow non-members to make purchases without setting up an account first. However, pricing for our products and services differs based on province (different taxes, transportation costs, etc.) and the system currently requires a user to login in using their postal code (zip code) to help the platform generate products, services and pricing specific to their area. This has caused an enormous bounce rate and I am looking for a way to generate said product/service/pricing lists based on some form of automated system which identifies their location and reacts accordingly. In other words, I want our system to recognize where a user is searching from and provide them with the relevant information without them having to input any data (in this case, their postal code). I had thought that using a Google Geolocator API might do the trick, but I'm unsure as to whether it is useful for what I have in mind. Has anyone had this experience before and if so, what solutions did you come up with? Looking forward to any insights and suggestions! Rob

Questions on Paid Directory Links...
Hi Moz Community! We have a client in the manufacturing industry that is listed in Thomasnet.com for a about 75 different terms. For those that might not know, this is a paid directory site that ranks extremely well and has a very high DA at just under 90. These 75 different terms have spanned about 9,000 "dofollow" links on Thomasnet.com around 4 months back, right about the same time as the Penguin 2.0 update. The link profile for this client had around 2,000 links prior to the 9,000 additional links, and our team is unclear if we should be concerned about these paid directory links. The organic rankings have dropped a bit, but that might be because of a more general Penguin update and not be directly tied to this paid directory. I'm looking for some general guidance and recommendations in this paid directory space and help with Thomasnet.com if available. Should these links be requested as changed to "nofollow"?

Trademarked words in in Google Adwords ads - Why do competitors get to use them?
Hi, The keyword I want to use in my ad is trademarked, so they disqualified my ad. The trademark was specifically cited as the reasoning. I tried this across maybe 5 different ads. All disqualified The thing I don't understand is that there are like 10 other advertisers who are actively using this "trademarked" word in their ads. It's not like 1 scooted past Google, there's a ton of advertisers doing it. So how do I get past them or were they grandfathered in or something? FYI... I tried dynamic insert to see if that could my "trademarked" word in the back door, but no luck. Any other ideas? Thanks!
