Managing A Successful AdWords Campaign

By Brian Basch

It is easy to start up an Adwords advertising campaign. However managing a successful Adwords campaign is quite another thing. In fact when you compare a successful Ad words campaign to one that is just running you are talking about a considerable difference in profits. A failing advertising campaign can cost you 100's of dollars, which you could easily have utilized for other things in your business.

How can you stop your hard earned money from being eaten up? The answer is transparent; you will need to pay attention to every detail of your Adwords campaign. Firstly you will need to take care when you choose your keywords, secondly be careful when you bid. But above all you will need to micro-manage your campaigns.

To choose a keyword is not as easy as it looks. The aim of every keyword is to pull a certain quantity of general traffic but it must also be able to reach your specific market. Of course your ad must be able to produce sales for you, or you will find yourself seriously out of pocket.

The Google Adwords site provides a number of tools for keyword research, for your Adwords campaign. These resources will help marketers to find popular keywords, synonyms and many other different variations of your keyword.

What a lot of marketers fail to understand is the fact that pay per click marketing on the Internet, is actually a huge auction, with the highest bidder winning. Of course in these circumstances the advertiser who can put up the most money for a particular keyword becomes the highest bidder. This will put them in the best position for the greatest exposure.

Because Internet surfers have a short attention span, you will need to be sure that your ad is concise, direct and in a good position. If an ad is just hidden with a large number of results, it is unlikely to be seen. But by the same token if an ad has great exposure but is producing wasted leads, it will not be of much help. The key to success is to strike a happy medium.

As soon as you start your advertising campaign you will need to monitor it carefully. Be especially careful of click to sales conversions, and be prepared to make changes or even cancel an ad. Adwords has tools to help you to do all this and more. You will also need to have software on your own site to show you where your visitors are coming from and how many sales they generate. When you monitor your ads carefully you will be successful and you will save a bunch of money.

Be sure to manage your campaign carefully, from the very beginning. Especially be aware of sales conversions. Be alert and ready to make changes quickly to avoid later problems. You can also co-ordinate your campaign results with your website tracking software, to check sales and traffic. The way to see real profits is to manage your campaign well.
