Pay Per Click : AdWords Campaign Set Up Tips

It's easy to overlook the basics of a strong AdWords PPC advertising campaign. Without them though, your AdWords campaign can be doomed from the very start. Follow these tips to be sure that your pay per click campaign has a strong foundation for both short term and immediate success.

Use Proper Grammar and Spelling

It may sound basic, but ad text that uses slang, has misspelled words or doesn't read clearly isn't going to get clicked. If anything, it makes your business seem unprofessional and could actually harm your reputation. The purpose of your pay per click advertising is to convince the audience to visit. That won't happen if they can't get past an amateur image.

Make sure that you spell and grammar check your ads. You might also have a friend, co-worker or employee read through the ad text to make sure that it reads smoothly and makes sense. Input from others is invaluable when creating AdWords ads.

Start Small With Geographical PPC Targeting

If you're just starting out, try limiting your pay per click advertising distribution to one or two regions (e.g. for businesses based in North America, limit your initial distribution to the U.S.A and Canada). By starting with a smaller distribution area for ppc advertising, you will be able to keep your costs lower and "fine tune" your ads and keywords before expanding.

When you feel comfortable that your AdWords ads are profitable, start to expand several countries or regions at a time.

Scout the PPC Competition

Chances are, no matter what kind of product you sell, you will have a competitor who is already selling something similar and advertising it on AdWords. Search for the terms you wish to use on Google to see what kinds of ads your competitors are writing. You might even try a tool like GoogleSpy to see exactly what terms your competitors are buying.

Pay close attention to the terms they use, the deals or incentives they offer and the titles they use. You can learn a lot from your competitors. You don't want your ads to be exactly like theirs, but you can use elements from each competitor to make your ads perform even better.
