Did you know: PPC's High ROI

For every $1 spent on Google Ads, businesses earn an average of $2 in revenue. This statistic highlights the significant return on investment that well-executed PPC campaigns can deliver.

Managing PPC Advertising for ROI

Paid Search & Social Media Advertising

A reality for PPC advertisers is cost-per-click has gotten completely out of hand. Perhaps worse, search engines aren't exactly structured to work in the advertiser's favor. In general, they are structured to generate revenue. As an example, one of the most important metrics Google uses to determine which ads will be places in the top, most visible position is clickthrough rate, or CTR. This means the ads the get the most clicks have a ranking advantage.

This creates a huge problem for new PPC advertisers. Ideally, we have the opportunity to develop advertising and landing page strategies by running low-cost, tightly controlled tests before going all in on a campaign and promotional budget. By demanding a high CTR for your ads to appear in search at all, Google forces us to substantially increase your early PPC ad spend.

We use a number of tools that help drive down click costs, but more importantly, we have the ability to recall and analyze ad placements going back well over 15 years. That means, if you or any of your competitors has run a PPC campaign within the last decade and a half, we can not only see it, but know exactly when it ran and how it performed. This is a big deal because competitors often abandon solidly performing campaigns without realizing it. We benefit greatly from the experiences of past advertisers.

Local Services Ads (LSA)

Local Services Ads (LSA) are transforming how businesses reach local customers. LSAs appear at the very top of Google search results and are designed to connect consumers with nearby service providers. These are especially powerful for professionals like doctors and law firms, but perform amazingly well for plumbers and other services we all rely on everyday.

Enhanced Visibility: LSAs appear above traditional text ads, increasing the likelihood of attracting local customers.

Pay-Per-Lead Model: Unlike traditional PPC, you only pay when a potential customer contacts you directly through the ad.

Trust and Credibility: LSAs often include verification badges, enhancing consumer trust and credibility.

Effective Paid Search Advertising & PPC Management

Maximize your ROI from PPC & Paid Search

PPC advertising works. While we would much rather generate traffic without paying for clicks, paid clicks can pay off.

Matching "User Intent"

Since you're paying real dollars every time a visitor clicks on your ad, it is absolutely critical that everything you present supports that visitor's goal. Since PPC advertising is centered around target keywords, the user's intent is typically obvious. We always match advertising destination pages to each specific ad--never your website's homepage.

Often, matching "user intent" means creating website pages specifically written to appeal to that searcher. There are several effective "landing page" strategies. What approach we use depends on your products, your market, competitor activities and many other factors. The important thing is we take the time to plan and test everything, then make adjustments as performance data becomes available.
