Generate greater ROI with strategic, effective paid search ads
Seattle Google Ads Agency
What is Google Ads? Or, more broadly, paid search?
Google Ads, formerly Google AdWords, is a type of pay-per-click advertising that allows advertisers to appear at the top of Google search results as a “Sponsored” result. As the name suggests, advertisers only pay when users click on their ad. Google Ads, along with Bing Ads, are also more broadly called “paid search” or “search engine marketing (SEM)”.
Paid search is the ultimate way of scaling the ROI of your business’ digital marketing efforts. It boasts outstanding benefits, with results to back it up, such as:
With Google Ads campaigns, you have the autonomy to delegate ad spend based on your unique budget. Low CPC (cost per click) bidding strategies can make keyword and audience targeting quite effective while keeping marketing costs down.
Google Ads catapult your marketing efforts directly to the top of search engine results. With more visibility, these campaigns drive more user engagement and ultimately greater ROI. Unlike SEO, campaigns don’t take as long to marinate on the market before showing results.
If you operate in a highly saturated or competitive market, or are just starting your business, you may struggle to appear at the top of the page in organic search results. Search engines prioritize search ads in results, which can almost immediately bump your business to the #1 spot — perfectly positioned to generate leads and drive sales.
Paid search and search engine optimization (SEO) have become increasingly more difficult as search engines continue to update their algorithms, driving further competition. Search ads work around these algorithmic impacts to organic performance.
You can utilize customer lists to develop warm audiences so your targeting is even more effective. Meanwhile, you can reach greater audiences and grow brand awareness by targeting specific keywords or new audiences and demographic types.
Testing hypotheses has never been easier. Paid search platforms are set up to accommodate running experiments so you can get the most out of your campaign, from ad spend to performance, and make strategic, data-driven decisions.
Our approach as a Google Ads agency
Research and Discovery
To understand what success looks like to you, our team begins every project by learning as much as possible about your business. We put ourselves in your shoes, seeking to understand who your ideal customer is, your KPIs, and your roadblocks. All of that information will guide our research to provide us with the foundation for building a successful Google Ads campaign.
Campaign Build
We then create a data-led Google Ads strategy based on our research and analysis. You will be able to see everything from A to Z: what the ads will look like, when they will run, the goal of each campaign, and so on.
Test, Optimize, Repeat
We’re not chemistry experts, but we take a scientific approach to our Google Ads services. We strive to always have at least one test running, determining what works best for your business and informing our next optimizations — whether it’s the keyword match type, bid strategy, or audience targeting.
