Managing AdWords - Handy Hints

When your ad is relevant searchers gravitate to you. The secret to successful AdWords is relevance. Searchers will click on your ad when you have relevance. When you have relevance, your profits will grow because your ad costs dropped, because Google definitely rewards relevance.

Arrogance falls by the wayside when you are shelling out the money, taking risks with your business and Google is dipping into your credit limit every month. Searchers don't want to deal with your arrogance either. This story is revealed best in the management of Google AdWords. When it is your card being charged, the information telling you what does or does not get clicks, is in urgent demand.

Relevance Equals A Google Reward

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.

Essentially, the top position has always been awarded to the person with the high bid. But with this twist, here is the formula that has been used by Google to determine the order that the ads come in:

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.

What click through rate are we talking about here? It could be your ad group click through rate, or either the click through rate of your ads for search partners or AdSense, but that is not what we are talking about here. We are talking about the click through rate of your individual keywords and their Google performance alone.

If you are getting a good CTR, you won't be required to have as high a bid for a good position. It works like this; I bid one dollar and the ad gets a click through rate of one percent, and your ad gets a click through rate of two percent. You will be able to get about the same position as I do with only a bid of 50 cents. With a 51 cent bid you will get a higher position than I have. Say you already have top position, Google will charge you a lower bid price as your click through rate improves, without you having to do anything. Nice!

Even though this may seem magical, it isn't. It does mean you are shelling out less money each month to Google and that means more money heading to your bank account.
