Complex Testing And Tracking Made Simple

testing and tracking When it comes to pay per click marketing, the way to generate more profits is none other than to test and track consistently over time.

Yes, it sounds like work, however, this is the key to maximize your returns. Besides, it does not take much time and it is quite easy to set up.

Search Network Tracking

For search network, you must track based on individual keywords (and keyword match types) so that you know exactly which keywords are making you money and which keyword are not. When you know that, you can adjust your individual bid prices according to your ROI.

Content Network Tracking

For content network, you can only track based on adgroups and only broad match keywords are needed. Same thing, you adjust the bid prices of your adgroups according to your profits. For those adgroups which are doing well, considering duplicating the whole adgroup then use image ads.

CTR vs Conversions

Click through rates (CTR) is a good indicator of how good your ad is at grabbing attention. When you take a closer look, higher CTR does not mean that your conversion rates is good. Sometimes, you will write ads with high CTR and low conversions, this will lose you money!


Getting to Grips with Google Part III continued – OnPage SEO

Getting to Grips with Google Previously we looked at the basics of keyword positioning as a means of helping Google understand the content of your webpage. Continuing on from that let’s look at applying these techniques to our entire website.

Going back to our Rattan Furniture shop example, we’ve already optimised our home page, so what can we do to optimize our inner pages? The OnPage SEO techniques we covered last time still apply and should be used on every page on the website. But, do we want our inner pages to be targeting the same keywords in the same manner?

In a word, the answer is no. There’s no point for us to target the same keywords. Each page of our site is going to have specific and hopefully unique content which we will be optimizing in exactly the same manner as we did last time.

This time, however, there is a little more that we can do. We can build more SEO factors into our sub pages through navigation, file structure and file naming.

Getting to Grips with Google Part III – OnPage SEO

image In the previous installment we looked at finding the best keywords for us to target with our website. Now that we have our list compiled we need to start working on our page, with the goal of helping Google really understand the contents of the page.

Once Google understands completely what your pages are about, it can then start coupling this with your backlinks to decide where to put you in the SERPs (Search Engine Results Pages).

So how do we do this? When search engines were in their infancy, SE’s tried to understand the contents of pages by calculating things such as keyword density.

Techniques such as keyword stuffing could then be used to fill the page with the desired keywords and thereby raising the density for that term, and in turn ranking better for it.

Nowadays SEs, and in particular Google, are a lot smarter. They no longer look at your keyword density, and instead use other markers to understand a page.

These markers are semantic markers already built into HTML. HTML was originally conceived with the idea that the way a page was constructed would format the information, tag it, in a way that made it understandable.
