GOOGLE PAY-PER-CLICK

WHAT IS PAY-PER-CLICK?

Showing your text ads on the Google Search Engine Results Page when a user searches keywords related to your business, across all devices. (Also called Google Ads, AdWords, Paid Search Ads, and Search Engine Marketing.)

CHOOSE FROM 3 DIFFERENT TYPES OF GOOGLE PPC ADS:

  • Responsive Ad – Google updates the ad text based on what will perform best, pulling from the multiple headlines and descriptions submitted. Keyword list is created and given to the client. This is now Google’s default for PPC ads.
  • Dynamic Ad – Google creates the headline and landing page URL that is displayed in the ad based on content from the client’s website and serves ads when a user searches a keyword or phrase related to the titles and phrases frequently used on client’s site. No keyword list is given to client. This type of ad performed best in our beta testing.
  • Call Ad – These are designed to encourage people to call your business (rather than go to your website) and appear only on devices that make phone calls. When a potential customer clicks your ad, the ad places a call to your business from their device. Keyword list is created and given to the client.
