18. Call Tracking - Google Joins the Party
Call Tracking
Google’s attempt
• Google sets up a forwarding number
• Integrates with analytics
• Bing / Yahoo copied, separate but equal.
• No recording/listening of calls (privacy issues)

• One report where you can actually listen to the call
• It does cost
• If your promoting a medical client HIPA certification

19. Dynamic Campaigns and Ads
Dynamic Ads are great for
• Dynamic Inventory
• Dynamically Change the Ad Title line
• Saving Time – Information Pulled from your website no
extensive initial keyword research
• When a search is relevant Google will dynamically create an
ad headline for your ad
• Control – Show ads on all or just part of your website
Dynamic Ads are Not good for Rapidly
changing web pages like “daily deals”
20. Forced Use of Close Variants
• Good - Less work,
• Fewer keywords to enter
• Google decides what you show
for.
• Bad – sometimes plurals/
singulars only do the conversions
• Close variants can be completely
irrelevant
• More research now required into
negative matching– creating more
work, not less
Examples :
California vs. CA
Flooring supplies vs. Floor supplies
Supply vs. supplies
21. Google Tightens the Reigns on Quality Score
Google is adding more “weight” to relevancy
QS is :
• Keyword to landing page relevancy
• Keyword to ad relevancy
• User experience on the web page
• SEO is even more important
Your AdRank = your bid * your quality score
22. Broad Match – Use it Sparingly
Google has increased the reach
of the broad interpretation
• This is to grab more traffic and drive
more clicks to the website
• Sounds Good but must be VERY
heavily negatively matched
• Be careful not to waste money!

66. It’s Marketing.
SEO is about figuring out how people
are searching for what you have, so you
can show them – and Google – that you
have what they want and you’re the best
place to get it.
@ruthburr
76. Keywords Are Important.
It doesn’t matter how you talk about what you
do. It matters how your users look for what
you have, so you can show them that you
have it.
