Is there any software out there to help manage PPC campaigns on Google, Overture and Miva?
Rather than have to deal with 3 admin accounts it would be great to manage everything via one system that will also collate and compare info and produce reports across all three networks.
Cheers,
Lawrence

There are plenty of alternatives to the expensive tools such as bidbuddy and atlas. It really will depend on the product, your average CPC's and spend to determine what soultion would best fit be it a CPC based or spend based service. Please feel free to email me with an outline of your figures and I'd be happy to point you in a few directions

I can recommend www.makemetop.co.uk which does pretty much what you want (i.e. provide one interface to manage Adwords, overture and Miva) listings.
You may also find our Adprecision ESP system very useful (www.adprecision.net) as it automatically creates keyword phrases and writes titles and descriptions automatically for Google Adwords, Overture and Miva. This takes a lot of hard work away when setting up campaigns in search engines. Our system can also change Titles, Descriptions and URLs automatically based on your product feed to us. Our clients notice a higher CTR for a lower average CPC rate.
Fell free to email me at for more info.
Thanks

Can any of these limit your bids to a maximum CPA?
The only one I've seen that claims it can do this is Atlas, and it becomes v expensive if you're operating on a high volume, low margin business.
