Are you looking to make money through adwords but just seem to
keep on spending wihtout seeing the rewards? Read on.....
Google's Adwords service has brought success to many businesses
by providing them with a lagre amountl of highly targeted
traffic from as little as 2 cents per visitor. However, there is
probably an equal number of webmasters who have paid for adwords
and seen ltitle benefit or have indeed made substantial losses.
If the latter applies to you, then the following may be of some
benefit -
1. Planning
First of all, decide how the layout of your ad will appear.
Secondly, you should consider what you want to be included in
the title and what keywodrs or details you wish to present to
potential visitors to your site. Ensure that your text will
encourage only targeted visitors to your site in order to avoid
the expense of wasted clicks. Read through all the Google TOS
and guidelines before placing your ad or else you risk having it
disabled which can lead to charges.
A fair proportion of internet surfers are still really experienced
and click on adwords without even realising what it is.
Therefore it is a good tip to list prices in your text, so that
you can put off clicks from tohse who would have no intention of
purchasing your product or service in the first place.
2. Brainstorming
Before beginning a campaign it is advisable to write down as
many keywords and phrsaes as you can guess of. The most popular
terms are likely to have been bid up to a high price, maknig all
your click-throughs high-priced. Think about what your prospective
customers would type if they were searching for what you were
offering.
When you have thought of as many words as you can, glance over
your list and rearrange what you have into new, useable phrases.
Some will be way off target and discarded instantly, amongst the
others choose the one that sounds hottest and you should have a
great sales pitch that won't break the bank.
3.
Optimising
Do not go along with google's suggested cost per click.
This is
always far hgiher than necessary.
Many advertisers do not
understand that their click through rate affects their position
to the same degree as how much they pay per click.
For example,
if you pay 5 cents per click for the phrase "page rank" and your
competition pays 10 cents and achieves a click through rate of
0.5%, then in order to surpass this person in position you will
only need to double your click through rate, to anything above
1%, whilst still only paying half of what they are Generally
speaking, I would alawys recommend paying half of the google
suggested figure for your clicks, the exception being if your
business is in a highly competitive field in terms of adwords
marketing use.
Now that you have your keywords and pricing in place, you should
set your daliy budget relatively low for a short time, allowing
you to see how successfully this campaign is running, without
risking too much money. Leave your campaign to run for a few
days, and take good care to note which keywords are leading to
sales or enquiries.
4.
Experimenting
You should continually monitor the perfromance of your keywords
and Ad groups and try to change tiny details from time to time,
perhaps one word here and there occassionally.
Changing even one
word can have an affect on the success of your campaign, either
positively or negatively. If you find google disabling your ads
because you're faiilng to obtain enough clicks then go back to
brainstorming and generate another set of keywords and phrases
which may work better for you.
Even if adwords are working supremely well for you, constant
monitoring is important. If other people realise you are
generating high profits then it is likely they will start to tap
into your makret. Conitnue to experiment with your campaigns to
ensure you stay at the forefront of your field.
