- Brainstorm – people go to search engines to find solutions to problemsScrape your websiteInclude synonymsThink like your customerKeyword research tools
- Usually between 5-20 keywords per ad groupSeparate branded campaignBased on the products and services you offerBased on geographical locationBased on performance and biddingBased on brand names vs. generic namesBased on seasonality of your service or productBased on keyword match types (you can also segment this way on an ad group level too.)
- Default ad rotation is optimize for clicksDefault is all devicesUS and Canada is default geo target
- You have 130 visible characters (headline, description, and display URL) to encourage a user click on your ad – that’s less than a Tweet. Exclamation points First letter capitalized Use call to action Benefits UPVAd extensions
- 1. The CTR contributes the largest amount (60%) to the QS which is based the amount of clicks as a measure of relevance (a measure of your Ad Text and it’s relevance to the keyword)2. The second major contributor is Keyword to Ad Relevancy to Ad Group Relevancy which is 30%.3. Landing page relevancy (10%) is based on the Keyword to Ad relevancy to Landing page relevance. Google only makes money on the click (when someone clicks the Ad) they don’t care if users buy your product or not so that’s why the landing page is only worth 10%.
