Getting the Most Out of Your Pay per Click Advertising
By S. Reeves
If you are like millions of other online businesses, you have
discovered the benefits of using pay per click (PPC) advertising to
boost traffic to your website. This form of advertising has become so
popular on Google that it can now be difficult to find keywords that
are useful and related to your content without spending a fortune.
There are however, some things to keep in mind that will help you to
become more profitable with pay per click advertising and to enhance
your Denver PPC management.
Pay per click advertising is based on the auctioning of keywords. The
more popular the keyword, the more money a company will pay to use it.
For example, a dog products website might want to use the keyword
"dog." When a user goes to Google and types in the keyword "dog," a
list of paid ads will appear in the margins next to the actual search
results. The dog products website would be one of the companies that
randomly appears here.
When a user clicks on the website's ad, the company has to pay Google a
specified amount of money. This fee would be quite high for the word
"dog," as it is one of the most popular on the web. But for a keyword
such as "dog food bowl" the company would pay less money.
The thing to keep in mind here is that not only would the dog product
website pay less money for keywords like "dog food bowl," they would
also have less competition. When you go to sites like Wordtracker.com
that analyze the keyword popularity on the web and the number of search
results for each keyword, you see that the less popular keywords have
fewer results. In the world of billions of websites all competing for
eyeballs, fewer search results means the dog products website has a
better chance of being seen.
A growing problem among PPC advertisers is that their competition has
been known to click on their ads in order to up their bill with Google.
This is not always the case, but beware of this practice. The real goal
you have here is to convert the clicks to sales. So you need to focus
on the site itself in addition to the PPC management, Denver market
research, and other day to day duties.
To get your ad noticed, you need to have a good strategy for
copywriting. Make your ad as outspoken as possible. This is not the
time to be subtle. Remember that you will be competing with other
companies who offer the same thing you do, and your ads will be side by
side. So go for the thing that you can offer that no one else can and
emphasize that.
Before you implement your PPC strategy, be sure that your site will be
able to handle the traffic. Often PPC advertising generates results
immediately, so don't put off upgrading your system if necessary.
Always make sure that your site is in top shape before you advertise as
well. Sending someone to a site that is incomplete or not in top form
will set a bad first impression and you will lose a potential sale.
