What makes a good Google Search Ad campaign?

840 total views, 6 views today

Make sure that you create ad groups that are targeted to a set of related keywords. Ad groups help you to write ads around related keywords that identify your prospects’ search intent and awareness.

Your keywords should be tightly themed within the groups, and your ad copy should then be closely related to the keywords in the ad group. Don’t go overboard with this though, too many ad groups relative to your budget can make it harder to optimize your ads.

Each ad should have a landing page that addresses the likely search intent of the user, answering any questions they may have and clearly indicating what is the next step should they want to proceed further.

Matching the context of your ads and landing pages to a user’s search intent boosts your CTR and your quality score, lowering your cost.

I recommend you make use of extensions. These allow you to add more information and promote special offers. Extensions make your ads more prominent and relevant for your prospects.
Lastly, good Search campaigns need to get conversions for your business. Whether sales or leads, these conversions should be tracked and appropriate financial value assigned so that you know if you are making a financial return from your ads.

Here at 1834 Hotels we centralise the marketing for many different hotels. It can be an enormous undertaking to monitor and track the performance of each one, especially when they are all on separate webpages.

Petra helped to resolve this difficulty by creating a central hub in Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics with Cross-domain tracking and Ecommerce as well. She created many valuable analytics dashboards and reports that draw from the centralized source. Now that we have all the analytics tracking working it has improved the accuracy of our reporting and the insights have helped develop better marketing strategies.

Petra’s skills and wealth of knowledge is fantastic. I would recommend Petra without hesitation.

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.

Your attention to detail is beyond what I had expected. The detail of the data is incredible. The best part though was to learn the profile demographic - which is very different to whom I think I've been trying to target through social.

Petra's detailed reports and her personal assistance has been helping us to know where to concentrate our efforts and even showed us technical issues we needed to fix. Our Audience Engagement Report identified several key interests of our buying audience. We tried targeting one of those interests and it brought in two sales almost immediately! I highly recommend working with Petra and accessing her brilliance to scale your business.
