In these current tough economic times you should optimise your AdWords campaigns to include the following:

Focus your AdWords on prices and savings

If you are selling products, mention prices, discounts and special offers. If you are providing services mention the benefits and possible discounts or package deals you may have.

Use value related keywords

People are searching for value. Use keywords such as "discount", "savings" "special price". If you can afford to reduce your prices in tough economic times, your click through rates will increase.
Make sure your ad groups are highly targeted

AdWord groups perform best when they are highly targeted. Include your keywords in the ad copy. Keep the number of keywords in each ad group low and create more ad groups from successful keywords.

Refine your AdWords with negative keywords
