Whatever the product, heree are some good general tips on running a PPC campaign and getting the results you are looking for.1. You don’t have to spend the maximum recommended budget. Pay-Per-Click engines like Google AdWords will show your ad for a fraction of the day if you do not commit to the full daily budget. However, you can choose the time of day that your ads run, and Google will shuffle your ad in and out of its listings throughout the day until your daily budget is met through clicks. 2. Use negative matching. If you have a keyword phrase that is associated with irrelevant searches, make sure to filter out those words in your ad group. For example, if you sell fish lures, and your keyword is “fish lures” then you want to make sure words such as “repair” and “hire” are represented as negative keywords by adding “-repair” and “-hire” in the list of keywords (see individual search engine for details on how to do this)3. Be wary of Content Matching. Content Network Matching is a way of showing your ad next to online text that contains your keywords. The original idea behind this was to place your ad near relevant articles about your product or services. You must turn off the “content match” option when you set up your pay-per-click campaign. Most often,”content match” will not result in sales for you.4. Google lets you put a phone number in your AdWords Ad. If you can sell effectively via the phone, you can save the cost of a click with a phone number included within the ad.5. For your PPC campaign to work, you need to make sure customers are landing on web pages that are relevant and easy to navigate. If a customer does not see what they are looking for immediately, they will click the “back” button on their browser and look at the next site. Always check that your links navigate correctly. 6. You should also write your ads for the surfers who will NOT buy from you. Some customers are looking for items that are cheaper than what you sell, and others are looking for an item that is defined with similar keywords. By adding the price of your product in the ad copy you can weed out customers looking for “cheap” items. About 5% of web surfers will click on the first ad in the list, no matter what the text, but it is still possible to save a lot of money in click costs every year by making sure that you target the customers that will buy from you.7. Not all PPC results in sales or conversions. There are some business models that do not respond well to pay-per-click. If the customer is going to be spending large amounts of money on a product or service, they may want to see a sample of what they will be buying. When you are setting up a campaign, you should ask yourself who your competitors are and how they reach their customers.8. Your competitors may be losing money on their PPC campaigns. Some companies use Pay Per Click in the same way they use a billboard, which is to build a brand. Others lose money on the initial sale but add the customer to a mailing list that will pay out over time. In many cases, your competition may be driving up the bid price for some phrases to an extent that it is impossible for anyone to make money from a sale or conversion. Don’t over-bid for top listingWhatever you are selling or featuring online through Pay-Per-Click, you should have a strategy that gets you the best return in the shortest amount of time. If you have software that allows you to monitor how your customers use your site when they land on it, you can quickly improve the site and PPC campaign until you get the conversion rate you are looking for. Often the difference between a profitable campaign and an unprofitable one hangs on fine-tuning by using the right phrases, ads, and landing pages for your potential customers.Discover how to succeed with your PPC advertising, when you grab your free Secret Keyword Tools here.
