Q
  1. What are the steps for planning and setting up a Search PPC campaign? What is involved in each step?
A
  1. Do your homework
    For a successful campaign, you need a full online and an offline analysis of the
    business, customer demographics, the industry and competitors. While it is
    relatively quick to set up a campaign, pre-planning will show dividends later!
    You need a brand, an identity and a clear unique selling point. You only get three
    lines to advertise, you need to make sure you know what should be in there!
  2. Define your goals
    You need to know what you want to achieve with your PPC campaign. Branding
    campaigns, for example, are very different to campaigns to increase sales.
    What do you want users to do once they click on your advert?
  3. Budget, Cost per Action (CPA) and targets
    Determine how much you are willing to spend to achieve your goal – your target
    CPA. Decide how much budget you are going to allocate to your PPC campaign.
    If your goal is to increase revenue, your budget might be unlimited so long as
    revenue is increasing and you are within your target CPA.
  4. Keyword research
    You need to determine what keywords potential customers are likely to use
    when searching for the service that you offer. Along with that, you need to know:
    What common misspellings a customer might use.

What words would show that they are not likely to purchase from you (words like free
and cheap).
As part of your keyword research, you need to look at expected volumes for your keywords, so you know how to bid on keywords. There are also tools which will show you similar or related keywords, so you can expand your keyword list even further PPC Advertising › tracking› landing pages note.

  1. Write the adverts
    Using your keyword research, write compelling adverts to promote your products. Adverts can be unique to a keyword, or you can group them and have a number of keywords for one advert. Make sure you use an appropriate display URL, and that you target the landing page for each advert.
  2. Place your bids
    Based on your goals and keyword research, set the maximum bids for your keywords. Don’t set these too high at this stage – you’ll tweak the bids as you test your campaign. That being said, don’t make them too low either or you
    won’t get much traffic and it could affect your Quality Score.
  3. Tracking
    Get your tracking tags in place, especially any conversion tracking tags.
  4. Measure, analyze, test, optimize!
    With tracking in place, you can analyze your ROI down to a keyword level, and then focus on those keywords which are converting best. Consider seeing how changing the text, image or video of your advert can
    increase the CTR, or your conversion rate. Test different landing pages to see what converts better. Test the networks too! Your Bing campaign may perform better than Google, or your Facebook account may drive cheaper traffic. Always keep your goals in mind and work, work, work to achieve them.
