Description

In this episode, Joel and Ben Podmore share all you need to know to create Google search ads that convert. Explaining SEO, how to optimise ads, identifying keywords (search terms) that you can compete for and analysing the results.

Ben is a successful Codebreak apprentice who is now a digital marketing assistant who takes care of all things technical, including websites, SEO, code pixels and Google Ads. So, you know the tips he shares in this episode are actually going to work.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Businesses that are not using Google Ads are leaving money on the table.
• Google search ads are becoming increasingly critical, especially for small businesses.
• Competition for ads on platforms like TikTok and Meta is very high, less so on Google.
• When people are ready to buy, they search on Google. So, when they click an ad, they are more likely to convert into a sale.
• The actual return on ad spend can be high, but only if you are laser-targeted.
• It is vital that you analyse conversions properly. Some conversions have a higher value than others.
• Use clear calls to action that are visible on every scroll.
• Your copy needs to be relevant.
• Very specific searches tend to be cheaper and easier to compete for.
• Research is essential for Google Search Ad results.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Search ads are different, they are intent-led. ´

‘You might find that you need to bid on your own name.’

‘You´ve got to think about how people are behaving.’
