Google Adwords-a Basic Outline On Understanding Them And The Factors Involved

By:


So what are Adwords? Well Adwords is Googles own form of PPC (pay
per click) advertising.
When you conduct a search for a term on Googles home page the
actual Adwords ads can be found down the right hand side of the
page and sometimes at the top as well. These are easily
identifiable because they are shown under the title sponsored
links.
In the middle of the page you find the free search results, so
you may wonder what is the purpose of paid advertising?
It is true that significant traffic can be brought to a web page
through organic search results, but this in itself can often take
a significant time to achieve through SEO (Search Engine
Optimization) techniques, and this is beyond the scope of this
particular article.
So moving back to the question, what is the purpose of paid
advertising? Quite simply this form of advertising can have
immediate effects in a relatively small amount of time.
The actual process of setting up a Google Adwords campaign can be
carried out in around 10 minutes and as the potential to show
results in a matter of minutes. Ok, clearly nothing is as
straight forward as this, and a little
bit of work is involved before you can implement your campaign.
When you are setting up your campaign you must ensure that it
surrounds a tightly focused theme. You must have completed some
work on Keyword research and be aware of the dominant keyword.
The dominant keyword will be used in the writing of your ads.
Within each campaign you can set up a number of ad groups, each
ad group will have it's own set of keywords and within each set
of keywords you will also have a dominant keyword for each group.
Each ad group should aim to have between 10 to 50 keywords
minimum.
The aim of any ad campaign is to appear high in the sponsored
links at the same time achieving this with the least expense. One
of the biggest factors determining this position is the CTR
(Click Thru Ratio). This is governed to a large degree by how eye
catching your ads are, and how relevant your keywords and ads are
to the landing page of your website . Google awards a quality
score based on good quality copy and it's relevancy to the
landing page.
The CTR (Click Thru Ratio) if you were wondering is the amount of
clicks per 100 page views.
When writing the ads themselves ensure that you have the dominant
keyword within both your headline and within the body of the ad.
Remember good ads with good quality keywords and content leads to
a high CTR, which leads to low cost and maximum traffic.
When starting any campaign, start cautiously and understand the
factors determining how much you pay.
1) How much you are prepared to pay for each click. This is known
as your maximum bid and will not necessarily be the amount paid.
2) The second factor surrounds how many clicks you receive.
3) How much is your daily budget.
Start this small and see how successful your campaign may be.
This should offer some protection from losing too many
advertising dollars if you have not got your campaign quite
right.
I hope that this proves useful in clearing some of the mysteries
involved with Google Adwords.
