Pay Per Click Marketing - It's All About Being Relevant
Even though there are many training resources available, far too many people make the same common mistakes in pay per click marketing. These mistakes are usually related to the relevance of the ad - it is frequently too general, does not make the most effective use of keywords and does not make use of quality, targeted landing pages. Just avoiding these simple mistakes is one of the best things you can do for your business. It won't take you long to figure out what does and doesn't work for you.
One of the most important things to realize about pay per click is that your keywords, landing pages and ads need to be as relevant to each other as possible. When people use a search engine, they are expecting to find links and ads that pertain exactly to the words they just entered.
You have a few goals. One is to get a good response from people who click on your ad because they have found what they are looking for. When they see the word they just searched for in your ad, chances are, they will feel they have found what they are looking for. Another goal is to get a high quality score from Google (if you are using Adwords), so your ad is ranked highly and your bids are lower.
One thing to keep in mind when working toward these goals is to keep your keyword focus very narrow. If you have several keywords that are relevant, split them off and bid on them individually, with their own ads. Creating a separate landing page for each keyword can be helpful as well. The more specific you can be, the better. The more related they are, the more they will be seen as relevant to searchers as well as the pay per click engine.
All of this can be challenging, especially when you're just getting started. It's probably best to try out a few different ad groups before expanding, or just start out a bit more generally. It will quickly become clear which ones are and aren't working. Identifying the winners early on will make you profitable more quickly than anything else.
Whether you are new to pay per click marketing, or already have a little experience, it's important to discover the best techniques and tips as quickly as possible. This form of advertising is a bit more complex than many others, and it can take some time to learn the ins and outs. The profitability you will gain from using this method efficiently and effectively is more than worth the time you will put into learning it.
