Justin---
like I mentioned earlier, Providence Media has two sets of customers. The reader and the advertiser. So, for our adwords strategy we needed to decide which customer to target with our google text ads. We decided to put ourselves in the shoes of the reader, as they are the ones looking for the content of the website. This has a chain reaction, because the more readers the website drives in, the more advertisers will want to do business, and eventually the more profit providence media will make.
