FAQs
How does Google Ads work?
Google Ads is an online advertising platform that connects businesses with their target audience. It works through a bidding system, where advertisers bid on specific keywords relevant to their products or services. When a user searches for those keywords on Google, ads are displayed at the top or bottom of the search results page. Advertisers only pay when someone clicks on their ad, hence the term "pay-per-click" (PPC).
How does Google choose which ads to display?
Google Ads uses a combination of factors, including bid amount and ad quality, to determine which ads are shown and in what order.
Advertisers bid on keywords relevant to their business, and the highest bidders typically have a higher chance of their ads appearing. The ad quality is evaluated based on relevance, click-through rates, landing page experience, and other factors.
What is a good budget for a Google Ads campaign?
Although there are no hard and fast rules, I usually recommend a minimum budget of at least £500 per month for a Google Ads campaign. So that means setting your daily budget to £16.45 per day.
How Do You Measure The Success of a Google Ads Campaign?
Measuring the success of a Google Ads campaign involves analysing metrics like click-through rate (CTR), conversion rate, cost per conversion (CPC), return on ad spend (ROAS), and quality score.
What is Google Ads Keyword Planner?
Google Ads Keyword Planner is a tool by Google that helps advertisers find the right keywords to use in their campaigns. It suggests keywords based on what users search for and shows how many times those words are searched. It also tells advertisers how many other advertisers are using the same keywords and gives estimates on how much they might need to spend.
Can I promote my product on YouTube with Google Ads?
Yes, YouTube ads are managed directly through Google Ads. You can set up a specific campaign type called "Video Campaigns". With Video Campaigns, you can create and manage ads that appear before, during, or after YouTube videos, as well as on other websites and apps within the Google Display Network.
What is the difference between Google Ads and Google Adsense?
Google Ads is primarily designed for advertisers who want to promote their products or services.
Google AdSense, on the other hand, is designed for publishers who want to monetise their websites or online content by displaying relevant ads.
Do I need more than one ad for my product?
A successful Google Ads campaign relies on your ad always being highly relevant to what the user searched for. It’s unlikely that a single ad can be highly relevant to every one of your keywords, especially if you sell multiple products or services. So you need to have multiple ads and use ad groups to associate each ad with a small group of keywords that are relevant to that ad.
What are negative keywords?
By adding negative keywords to your Google Ads campaigns, you are telling Google that if a searcher includes one of those negative keywords in their search, then you do not want your ad to appear. This means you can filter out the kind of visitors that are of no interest to you and avoid wasting money driving them to your website. Examples of negative keywords are “free,” “cheap,” or “jobs.”
