Asking businesses about their experience using Google Adwords can elicit responses ranging from “waste of money” to “invaluable marketing tool”, with quite a few instances of  “I have no idea what effect it had” in between.

While it is often promoted by Google as being an easy platform to work with, the truth is that many advertisers have had negative experiences on Google Adwords – for example, their budget might get spent too quickly, they might not have made any sales/leads or they don’t know the effect the campaign had at all.

Any subsequent decision to ‘never use Adwords again!” would be both naïve and damaging. Google Adwords search marketing can be an incredibly powerful tool to bring in new customers and avoiding the platform is only giving your competitors a leg up.

What’s needed is an approach to Google Adwords that guards your budget initially, allowing you to expand your campaigns as you experience positive results. Consider these cost saving ideas to keep your Adwords search campaigns profitable.

Don’t Pay $76 Per Click – 10 Ways to Lower Your Cost Per Click  

By | PPC | No Comments

According to the Google keyword tool, the suggested bid for the term ‘life insurance’ is over $76. For one click. That’s a lot of money for a single visitor. The cost is so high because it’s an auction system and this high price demonstrates the demand for the term.

Of course, if you have ever used the keyword tool for your own keywords you will probably notice that the suggested bid can be significantly different from what you actually pay. This is because everyone’s CPC is unique depending not only on what they bid, but also their Quality Score. Quality Score is the amorphous mystery which holds us to account for the words we bid on. Google wants their ads to be relevant – so if your ads aren’t relevant for a particular search, you will have to pay a premium to be shown.

The flip side of this is that you can get your CPCs lower by being more relevant. The following are some techniques we have used to improve the relevance and quality of our Adwords accounts and in turn decrease costs.

By | Analytics | No Comments

These instructions are for sites that have upgraded to Universal Analytics (which you should do anyway to get access to new features sooner). Find out how to upgrade to Google Analytics or ask us to do it for you

Every business has (or should have) marketing personas for their users/customers. Whether it’s corporate customers vs small business, baby boomers vs newly weds, subscribers vs one-offs, we divide our audience into personas in order to market to them more effectively. We target our messages, hone our products and design our landing pages to suit the different audiences we cater to. Seeing how those different audiences behave on our site and react to our offers and information, can be invaluable marketing information. Google has previously allowed you to track lots of different customer personas in Google Analytics using Custom Segments, but now with Universal Analytics and Google Tag Manager it is easier than ever to set up.

Custom Segments are now divided into Custom Dimensions and Custom Metrics. Since we’re looking at persona’s, we will be working with custom dimensions. By creating a custom dimension for your personas, you will be able to drill down into any analytics report that allows second dimensions to see behaviour by your personas. For example, if you look at the mobile usage report, and then choose a custom dimension for b2b customers vs b2c customers, you can see which personas use which devices more often.
