That is a good point. At work they have asked me to do an AdWords campaign for their recruitment, and especially over the weekend you can almost perfectly correlate the outdoor temperature with the response rate!

Well to an extent. I think that most small business people are actually quite satisfied with the Met Office if they need a weather report. However the real tip for someone using AdWords is to test, test and test again. Did I mention testing?

If you have a small business selling cloths and you know that if the weather is bad you will get more sales would you not try and get a adword out more at that time ?

Of course - if you could work out the pattern. My wife runs an aromatherapy business which I would have thought would be very weather dependent - but it's not.

I don't think that aromatherapy would be bad weather dependent . I was talking about cloths and other day to day items . There are people that have made money when the weather was bad .

Online business does not depend on the weather and thus people working online are getting the benefit for the whole year whether the weather is good or bad.
