Know The Structure

A successful PPC campaign is the sum of all its parts. Master the parts and you master the whole. The architecture of every paid search campaign has the same five elements organized hierarchically:

  • Ad group
          o Keywords
          Ad Text
          Landing Pages

Knowing the structure and relevance of your pay per click campaign before launching them will save you time and effort. 

Research Keywords

If you are a newbie in PPC campaigns, you may experiment with broad matches to find out which keywords people are using. Once you know what your market is doing, you can start using exact matches. Pick keywords that are relevant to their corresponding ad group.

Create Specific Landing Pages

Create a page for each of your products. The description should be unique and catchy with the prospect customers in mind. The keyword must reflect the ad, and consequently,  the landing page. The page should also be optimized so that it will load quickly.

Have Variety in Your Ads

In Pay Per Click campaigns, you are allowed you to have different ad variations. When you have more than one ad group, you will be able to monitor patterns such as which ad is more effective by comparing it to the others. 

Focus on which ones are selling by increasing or transferring budget allocation to them. Do not waste your time and money on low performing campaigns.
