Exciting Changes are coming to Google Adwords. Changes that will positively benefit small businesses and Mom and Pop operations.

As stated on their website: Yodle specializes in helping mom-and-pop companies place online ads, then convert Web traffic into phone calls. Its slogan is “Clicks are great. Calls are better.” Yodle routes and tracks phone calls that result from online ads.

Online ad firm Yodle has become an authorized reseller of Google AdWords. Yodle specializes in helping small, local businesses — beauty salons, landscapers, and limo companies, for instance — place online ads and convert them into customers.

Founded three years ago, Yodle is growing rapidly. The startup just hired its one hundredth employee, ten times what it had a year ago. Based in New York, it has recently opened offices in Atlanta, Boston, and Charlotte, N.C. Last fall, Yodle closed $12 million in financing from Draper Fisher Jurvetson and Bessemer Venture Partners.
