Hurrah! You made it!
You did your market research, chose your keywords carefully and did all the math before deciding how much you could afford to bid while still keeping your advertisement among the top search results. You've already gone two steps ahead and utilized all of Google's tools for choosing synonyms and other keywords; your advertising campaign for the next six months is all laid out.
What's next?
Sorry to say, but now the true work starts. Careful tracking of the activities of all of your ads is necessary to determine how efficient they are and what kind of productivity they are having. There are a few ways to accomplish this task.
There are tools offered by Adwords that let you track how much traffic you are getting from your ads; this IS how they generate funds. Your website will most likely have a way to track which ads brought traffic that led to a sale.
This is crucial because ineffective adword ads will drain your resources, either by being idle and distracting you from things that could be more effective or by giving you empty traffic, ones with no sales, one that you keep paying for but aren't getting anything in return, because you pay for these clicks whether they bring you income or not.
How do you handle an unprofitable ad?
If you have done your homework and your ad is appearing within the first five to ten pages of search results it is time to determine whether or not the problem lies in your keywords. It is very tempting when choosing a keyword to select one that is among the most popular-after all, if it is popular that means that more people are going to be looking for it, right? Supply and demand, after all.
The negative part is that most of the very popular keywords are too generic. These usually are ones used to start an indepth search not the one where you find what you are looking for. So the internet searcher using this keyword doesn't really know what he wants so will click in and out of sites looking for it. The best keyword will be generic enough to be searched for by less educated consumers but still precise enough that your target audience will find it.
By carefully monitoring your ads you fulfill the vital ingredient to your Google Adwords campaigns successfulness and that successfulness directly effects the success of your business. Continue on this course and your future will be bright.
