Adwords Pay Per Click Tips and Tricks

by Kale McClelland

For your Internet Marketing Strategy to be successful, you need a Sponsored Search Marketing strategy. One such tried and tested strategy is the Google AdWords scheme.

Google AdWords is a form of Search Engine Marketing which gives you the freedom to accesses Google's network of content thereby giving you advertising reach over multifarious websites. It lets the users bid on position of placement within the Google websites and its search network.

Here, we're going to go into the depths of the Google AdWords structure so that you can plan your search engine marketing campaign better as a part of your Internet Marketing Strategy.

A typical account on Google AdWords follows this structure:

Campaign> AdGroup>Keywords and Ad Copy

Just one level below the main level of your Google AdWords account, you'll find the campaign level, where you'll have control over settings like language, geographically based targeting and the timing for when you'd like your ads to appear. This can be set by the quarter hour. The campaign level and theme of your AdGroup (e.g. - your campaign itself) should match, or be related at the least.

Campaign> AdGroup> Keywords & Ad Copy

After this campaign level, you come to the AdGroup level of your Google AdWords account. This is the specific part where you can have 10,000 sections to help you organize all your keywords along with their correspondence with the Ad Copy you intend your keywords to trigger. Thus, make sure your AdGroup has a name which is thematically related to the keywords found in the group.

Campaign>AdGroup> Keywords & Ad Copy

The keywords in the Google AdWords will come directly after the Ad Group. These are the words you would want the search engine to target. You can use three different techniques in order to make your keywords list:

Broad Match Keywords -

Here, the search engine targets the words that were entered by you, any words that might be found to be in any combination with them or even between them.

Phrase Match Keywords-

Here, the words can be found beside each other but the keywords find a way to put themselves on to either end of the sentence.

Exact Match Keywords-

This is self explanatory, but to explain nonetheless, the search engine will be looking for your keyword exactly. Make sure your AdCopy and keywords are working together here.

Campaign>AdGroup>Keywords & Ad Copy

The AdCopy forms a part of the AdGroup, and it is here that a powerful sense of connection is needed with the keyword themes in the set. There is space enough for 4 messages in the AdCopy area. These are: Title of the Ad, First Description Line, Second Description Line and the URL for Display.

The ultimate requisite for your AdCopy is for it to draw attention to itself. Ad Title is needed to create a preliminary interest whereas it is the job of the AdCopy to make the body of your ad eye-catching and appealing. You're going to have to think out of the box. Think different to what others in the marketplace are doing. You'll have to find a way to do this even if it means capitalizing all the words, grabbing viewer attention with the first word and drawing them into the actual message which you want to convey.

Your AdCopy will be a bit different depending on whether you have a product or a service which you're selling. Service providers should think locally and take full advantage of the geographical targeting capabilities of Google AdWords.

Summary:

AdWords accounts try and bring you the best results by being a very well-constructed method and it has relevancy programmed in before the bidding begins. Even after 5 years of creating such accounts, we find ourselves discovering new things about it everyday. You're going to have to keep a constant eye on your account, though, as the market is in perpetual flux. We would suggest Google Analytics as good system to help you keep track of it.
