Is Google Ads free to use?

675 total views, 3 views today

Running ads through Google Ads is charged per click, or per 1000 display impressions depending on your billing option. Most business use the per click, model also known as Pay Per Click (PPC). This means you’ll get charged for every click your ads will receive.

That said, you can create an account for free and perform keyword research for free. You can also set up Display advertising where you get free impressions (people can see your ad for free) but only pay for the clicks. This can be extremely inexpensive when remarketing, because your remarketing audience already knows you and tends to click less often. (But each impression reminds them of your business – for free!).

Getting your ads live on Google will lead to a financial outlay, but you can choose how much you spend per day.

Using the services of a Google Ads specialist like Petra Manos from The Quantified Web will help you to get the most out of your budget, because we know which settings to apply to get you a better deal.

Our main purpose for generating these reports is about findings out information that will curb our strategy. The Audience Engagement Report provided us with new findings about our audience. We implemented new marketing elements based on those findings and they have increased sales.

I recently worked with Petra to improve my understanding of Google Tag Manager.

Petra not only provided a solid overview of GTM set up and event tracking, she also provided many tips on best practice, and answered the questions that I didn't even know to ask!

Petra is patient, fun to work with, and her analytical programming mind is hell bent on finding the BEST solution to any data, analytics or tracking problem.

I have been working with Petra for over a year now after changing from a much larger digital marketing provider and I could not be more pleased with the service and results my business is achieving.

With my previous providers I felt disconnected with limited communication. Petra on the other hand provides me with knowledge and information in a language I can understand that helps me make informed decisions not just about digital marketing but also my e-commerce business as a whole.

Petra has helped me navigate seasonal drops in trade creating a strategy that helped us grow and establish a healthy position in the market. It is an absolute joy to work with someone who loves what they do. I have complete confidence in recommending Petra to anyone considering e-commerce digital marketing, she is efficient, trusted and a true professional.
