Benefits of Google Ads
Instant Traffic
There is no greater benefit than the instant flow of traffic it can generate for your website. This is why it’s often used to supplement new websites not yet achieving SEO and organic traffic.
Supplement Poor Google Rankings & Seasonal
Even with the best SEO, not every keyword ranks at the top and Google Ads can supplement hard to achieve keywords as well as seasonal items that can change throughout the year.
Reach More Than Just Search
Organic targets only search result pages, however, Google Ads can also be used to reach YouTube, Display sites, Google Shopping and smaller search engines in their partner network.
Geographic Targeting
The beautiful thing about Google Ads is the ability to control where your ads show, you can easily reach Toronto or the whole of the Greater Toronto area or just Mississauga or the expanded Kitchener Waterloo, Cambridge areas or just one city. Or you can target provincially, nationally or globally.
What are Google Ads?
Google Ads make instant rankings in Google’s search results possible, and companies can live and die by their visibility in Google. Ads are posted and a fee is charged each time someone clicks on the ad. If someone sees your ad but doesn’t click it you don’t pay.
Google Ads are the largest vendor of search ads in the world and are pretty much the best place to advertise when you are looking at online advertising.
The impression that Google Ads are expensive or don’t yield a return on your investment isn’t true. When Google ads are set up and organized by a Google Partner campaigns, ads, keywords and targeting will be optimized for performance and best cost per click possible to ensure you get the most benefit from your ad spend.
Google Ads Options
Google Ads have changed a lot since the first days when Google launched Adwords. You can still buy ads for your search terms in Google but there is a world of other types of ads you can consider as well:
Display Ads
These graphic ads display throughout Google’s Display Network, which includes YouTube, apps and millions of websites. These can include sites like The Weather Network, CNN and other high-level sites to popular blogs, forums and informational sites.
Video Ads
Video Pay Per Click ads typically show up in YouTube but there are other sites in the Google Network your video ads can display.
Shopping Ads
These ads are a great way to get your individual products seen for relevant searches. Shopping ads are typically connected with ecommerce sites and use feeds to pull in products.
Remarketing Ads
Remarketing Pay Per Click ads are a very inexpensive way to stay top of mind with those that have visited your site. Using the display network and graphic ads, your ads will be shown to visitors of our website as they visit display sites like CNN, The Weather Network, blogs, forums and many other sites.
Dynamic Ads
Dynamic Ads are an easy way to create a campaign in that Google selects content from your website that matches what was searched. This has the added benefit of appearing for search keywords and search terms you may have overlooked. Your website needs to have good content for this type of Ad to perform optimally.
Local Ads
Local Ads are essential for brick and mortar store locations that need to drive walk-in traffic. These ads can appear in Google searches, the map results and YouTube.
App Ads
App Ads promote your app through regular Google searches, the Display Network, Google Play, YouTube and more.
When to Use Google Ads
SPECIAL EVENTS OR SALES
No better way to quickly and immediately get the word out about a special event or sale you have coming up. Search, Display and Remarketing ads are perfect for reaching new and existing customers.
SEASONAL PRODUCTS
A great way to promote and sell seasonal products or services where SEO can’t always deliver results in time for the upcoming season.
OFFSET LOW RANKINGS
Perhaps you're just starting your SEO marketing or some of your keywords are very competitive and will take a bit longer than the others. Search Ads and PPC can help get that exposure.
BUILD BRAND AWARENESS
Maybe you are new and you just wish to get your brand out there and recognized. Video, Display and Search ads are perfect for this exposure.
REMARKET YOUR SITE
Keep top of mind to those that have visited your site by having ads that follow them to the various sites they may visit in Google’s network of sites.
BLOCK COMPETITORS
You may have top rankings but want to secure the top ad spot as well, so of the current 4 ad spots not all 4 are competitors.
