Manage Google AdWords - Helpful Ideas

By: Kirt Christensen

Folks are drawn to relevant ads. The way to be successful with Google AdWords is the have relevance. Folks will click on your relevant ads. You will be rewarded by Google because of it and your costs will drop and your Profits will increase. This is because of your relevance.



When you're the person laying out the cash yourself and it's your own business, your own risk, and your own credit card that Google is dinging every month, you don't have time for your own ego stroking. Your customers don't have the patience for it either. Nowhere is this more clear than in Google AdWords management. Putting your own money on the line has a funny way of wising us up to what gets clicks and what doesn't.



Google Will Reward Your Relevance



If you bid higher for clicks you can get a higher position on the search pages. However, as your click-through-rate increases, Google will reward you by giving you a better position on the search pages. That is to say they reward you for relevance.



Roughly speaking, the first position has always been given to the highest bidder. But Google has long maintained an ingenious little twist. Here's a simplified version of its formula:



Your Relative Position = Your Bid Price x Your Clickthrough Rate



To explain more exactly, the formula takes your bid price and multiplies it by your Quality Score. Either way you do it besides your bid price your click through rate has the greatest impact on your position.



Next question: Which CTR are we talking about? We are not talking about, the total ad group CTR, nor the CTR of any of your ads either in the search partners or in adsense. We are talking about the Click-Through-Rate of the individual keywords, their performance on Google alone.



With your good click through rate, you don't have to bid as much for a good position. IE: If I put a bid of 1 dollar and I am getting a 1 percent click-through-rate and your ad get 2 percent click-through-rate, then you will be able to get the same position as I have for a mere fifty cent bid, and if you bid only one cent more than that 50 cents you would get a better position. To top that, if you already own the top position, as your click-through-rate increases Google automatically lowers your bid price. Way to go!



It may seem like some magic formula but it's not. What it means to you is that you are paying out less money to Google each month and that is money in the bank!
