In AdWords, money spent is on the stake and if not incurring the targeted funds from the investment, it could be a huge setback for the business. Using AdWords is not the guarantee of the targeting the actual customers and converting them without any efforts. AdWords is the detailed concept which requires huge knowledge to defeat the competitors in the race.
AdWords will show positive result on the ROI only when you use the features effectively. Otherwise they will work in the opposite direction of the targeted objective. There are some default features which can put the negative effect on the ad displaying to the targeted audience.
The article is about the same of providing the knowledge of the default factors which need to be considered while creating the campaigns. They don’t work exactly what they have been described.
Combination of search and display network
It is the hybrid of the search and display network Google introduced this campaign to give the features of search and display campaign in the low rate. This will help in the business to target their customers efficiently and make out of it. It would be profitable for the business to not spend on two campaigns either they get the advantage of two campaign in one.
But is reality it is totally different from what it said. Rather it would get costlier for the company to handle the campaign. It doesn’t seem economical in targeting the required audience. So, this is the worst feature which everybody should escape from. It is better to use the search and display network separately.
Inclusion of search partners
This is the default setting that I include the search partners as well. As this point, most of the advertisers ignores. There are millions of website which are non-google website. Through this, Google shows the ad to other search engine which does not relate to the Google. They do this because it would be beneficial for the business as their ads are displaying to other platforms which will help in diversifying the customers.
In reality, this is contrary what they said. Actually, it increases the impression rate and in turn which effects the lowering the CTR. This is the biggest disadvantage for the business. They have to unnecessarily see the negative outcome for their campaign. In result they are required to pay the higher CPC as compare to their competitors. So, disable the feature if you want to escape from the worst situation.
Broad match keywords
There is default setting in the Google that it categorises the keyword in the broad match keyword. Keywords are responsible to show the website on the search engine after hitting the search query. Broad match keywords will make the website visible even if the single keyword get the match with the search query. Even though the website is not relevant for the search query. Still it will be visible on the search engine.
It counts the impression irrelevantly which can be cost very high to the business. Afterwards the CTR will get high. In return, business need to pay higher CPC to get on the ranking. So the solution is not overlook this concept. Select the exact match or phrase match keywords.
Pushing for mobile bidding
Google also understands the importance of mobile over desktop. So, there is default setting form the mobile adjustment bidding. This will work only for the mobile devices. As the arte of using mobile is more than desktop. So, they make the default setting.
This could be worse situation for those whose website is not supported on the mobile devices. Those websites whose mobile traffic is not as high as compare to desktop. Then this would be the biggest mistake for the business. So, make sure to untick the mobile devices setting in AdWords.
Targeting audience with searching for and show interest, in the targeted location
Google believes on the concept that to show the result for the local market first. They help the audience by giving the result which are nearby present. It would be wastage for the business to get the clicks which are beyond their location.
But this concept can go wrong. For example- a person resident of
Automated targeting
Google introduces the concept of automated targeting to make the website visible to the targeted audience. It will help the business to not so much time on the campaign. They can leave the advertisement way to the Google. Google will prioritise the business over their competitor’s by securing the top for the position.
In reality, this is the costliest way of advertising. There’s no optimum features which are in the company’s hand. This makes the business to lose their control over the campaign. One more problem most of the advertisers found is that Google target that audience which are not in your remarketing list. If you don’t want to make the Google to remarket your disabled list, you need to turn off the conservative Automation.
It is advisable to go for no automated targeting.
