Smart Approaches To Boosting Your CTR With Improved PPC Ad Copy

By Jeff Leigh


PPC advertising scares a lot of people, but that is their loss because this method can be extremely effective for delivering you high quality traffic. Even affiliate marketing can still be promoted very effectively with Google Adwords. However, if you truly want to get a better return on your investment then you should know how to write an effective ad copy. You can make your ad copy game a serious contender, but you have to be willing to do what it takes.

Hype is usually a dangerous area to get into because so many people have seen too much of it. If you do use claims that are misleading, then you are flirting with danger from the FTC in the US if you are US based. Like we said, if you are serious and want to do this right, then learn something about copy writing and crafting strong classified type ads. There are many things going on with different levels, and people will not trust you based on one ad, but they will give you a chance - and that is all you are asking for. There is hardly anything wrong with testing and finding things out for your self based on experience. Do not worry about catching attention so much with your headline copy, but do write it so that if someone reads the headline it hits them right between the eyes.

One thing that used to be the rage was dynamic keyword insertion into your ads; so if you see that or know about just be extremely cautious with the technique. One thing that can get fouled up here with this technique is that it will harm your relevancy scoring unless you can do something on your landing page to prevent that from happening. If you have a lot of money to throw at your PPC campaigns, then you can always just test it and see what it does for you. It is quite easy to read about this tactic, think it is great, and then mistakenly assuming it is right for you to do. Write copy that is appealing to your target audience rather than depending on such factors.

PPC advertising is no different than other methods in that you can get important cues from your competitors. If they are all doing the same thing, then that means it is working; but it also means you can do some variation of some kind, too. Also, by studying the ads of your competition, you'll know exactly what's working for them and see if you can implement the same in your PPC campaign. But still, you can always get good tips and things from other people, and so we will just say to learn from others.

Remember when you are doing split testing you will only change one thing at a time such as the headline. There is nothing wrong at all with continuing to test your ads against each other so you can make your conversions the best they can be. Just like any where else on the net, the competition is there; but that should never deter you because you are unique in what you do. Yes, if you truly wanted to become a PPC guru, then decide you will do that and take strong action on it. As we have stated all along, there is much to know that will help you do well with this method, and just do something - take action.
