Google Adwords: A Powerful Tool in Increasing Conversions

By Marian J. Stewart


Building Google Adwords campaign is a dynamic process that involves fine tuning and polishing to get an optimal result, however, most people would rather turn to experimenting until they find out it's too late, and their resources have already been drained.

Many well-known gurus in Google Adwords such as the author of The Definitive Guide to Google Adwords Perry Marshall) believe that the way you manage your ad campaign has a huge bearing on your ad campaign's success rate. Specific techniques were shared by Marshall in relation to significantly building results for your campaign and recommended some essential tips to better refine it.

You don't have to throw your money away when you learn the tips and strategies that affiliate marketers and Adwords experts already know; you can actually end up spending less on your ads than competitors in your niche by picking specific keyword segments, monitoring your results and changing your ads regularly. Here are some essential tips for getting results with Google Adwords and spending as little money as possible during the process:

One, do not opt for placement in the top spot. Unknown to many, the first spot on the Google Sponsored Search results doesn't always provide the best conversions but the second and third spots.Bidding for the second and third spots respectively, instead of the first one, can afford you greater exposure in your market at a lesser expense. This is because most visitors searching for an info usually scan down the list, thus, all ad placements receive an equal amount of attention and click-throughs.

Next, eliminate negative keywords from your list. It's common to find that you get hundreds of clicks from a particular keyword or keyphrase, but with very low conversion rates. When this is the case, you likely have a 'negative' keyword in your ad, which means that people searching for that keyword and finding you are expecting something different. If you notice this pattern, eliminate the keyword and search for synonyms of your target keywords as a replacement; this is a very important optimization strategy that can help you increase your CTR very quickly after just one minor adjustment.

Finally, don't bid on broad match keywords. When you want to get some very targeted traffic to your website, don't waste your money or time bidding on broad or general keywords. Look at the 'advertiser competition' results for those keywords; if the bar is colored more than halfway, there is a very low chance that you will be able to bid on that word for a low price. Look for keywords and keyphrases that have a low color indicator; this may involve scrolling down the list, but anything that isn't highly competitive may also have a fairly low bidding price. You can use the 'exact match' feature on the Google Adwords Keyword Selector Tool to drill down your search.

There are many ways to improve conversion rates for your Google Adwords ad campaign and ensure that you are really advertising to your target market. Make use of any of these essential strategies as you optimize your Adwords program so you can start bidding on low-priced but effective keywords.
