Google Ads

1. Strategy Development

A successful Google Ads campaign begins with a well-thought-out strategy. NZ Websites takes a meticulous approach to strategy development, ensuring that every campaign is tailored to the client’s unique goals and target audience.

1.1. Client Consultation: NZ Websites initiates the process by conducting in-depth consultations with clients. We take the time to understand the client’s business, goals, target audience, and budget constraints. This critical information forms the foundation of the campaign strategy.

1.2. Keyword Research: The next step involves comprehensive keyword research. NZ Websites identifies the most relevant and high-converting keywords that align with the client’s business objectives. This research helps maximise the visibility of the client’s ads to potential customers.

1.3. Competitive Analysis: To gain a competitive edge, NZ Websites conducts a thorough analysis of the client’s competitors. This includes evaluating their ad strategies, keyword selection, and overall online presence. This knowledge informs the development of a strategy that sets the client apart from the competition.

2. Campaign Setup

Once the strategy is in place, NZ Websites proceeds with the setup of the Google Ads campaign, adhering to best practices to ensure maximum effectiveness.

2.1. Account Structure: They create a well-organised account structure, with ad campaigns and ad groups that reflect the client’s products or services. This organised approach enhances the relevance of the ads to the user’s search queries.

2.2. Ad Copy Creation: NZ Websites crafts compelling ad copy that aligns with the chosen keywords and resonates with the target audience. They use persuasive language and unique selling points to encourage clicks and conversions.

2.3. Landing Page Optimisation: Landing pages are an integral part of the campaign. NZ Websites ensures that landing pages are optimised for conversions, with clear calls to action and user-friendly design.

2.4. Ad Extensions: To make ads more informative and appealing, NZ Websites utilises various ad extensions, such as site link, callout, and structured snippet extensions, which provide additional details about the client’s offerings.

3. Ongoing Management

Managing a Google Ads campaign doesn’t stop at the initial setup. NZ Websites takes a proactive approach to ensure that the campaign remains effective and delivers a strong return on investment.

3.1. Continuous Monitoring: They continuously monitor the performance of the campaign, keeping a close eye on metrics such as click-through rate (CTR), conversion rate, and cost-per-click (CPC). Regular monitoring allows for quick adjustments when needed.

3.2. A/B Testing: NZ Websites conducts A/B testing on ad creatives, headlines, and landing pages to identify what resonates most with the target audience. This iterative process helps optimise ad performance over time.

3.3. Budget Management: Effective budget management is crucial to avoid overspending. NZ Websites sets daily and monthly budget limits and adjusts them as necessary to maximise the campaign’s efficiency.

3.4. Quality Score Optimisation: They work to improve the quality score of the client’s keywords and ads. A higher quality score results in lower CPC and higher ad positions, which can significantly impact campaign performance.

4. Data Analysis and Reporting

NZ Websites places a strong emphasis on data analysis and reporting to keep clients informed about the progress and success of their Google Ads campaigns.
